NZ Public Enemy No1 : Q Cooper

Messages
350
Edward was at school this morning and the teacher asked all the children what their fathers did for a living. All the typical answers came out, Fireman, Policeman, Salesman, Chippy, Dairy Farmer, Captain of Industry etc. But Edward was being uncharacteristically quiet and so the teacher asked him about his father.

'My father is an exotic dancer in a gay club and takes off all his clothes in front of other men. Sometimes if the offer is really good, he'll go out with a man, rent a cheap hotel room and let them sleep with him.'

The teacher quickly set the other children some work and took little Edward aside to ask him if that was really true.

'No' said Edward, 'He plays rugby for Australia , but I was just too embarrassed to say.’

Kicks too much. Has the best backline outside him, he needs to use it more often for more than oh-so-close kick chases.

His kicking game is average as well which does not help..he needs to go to league IMO as he will not improve in this aspect.

Yeah ACL... never a good thing to see.. even for a prick like him.. hope its not that bad.
come on dude... theres guys in the current all black squad who deserve to be called a prick more than Cooper.

I think the treatment of the guy has gone a bit too far now...

how is he a prick?? i have work mates who grew up with him in Tokoroa... they cant believe whats being said about him... as to them he's an awesome guy.

they do mention a current All Black who went to the same school in Tokoroa who's not only known in his home town as a douche-bag he's well known around his current home as a MAJOR prick.

People don't see the private side, that's just how it is, guys like Thaiday, Inglis, Hodges, Matai, Slater, etc are probably all decent blokes off the field however people only see their on field antics and also what's reported in the media. Cooper didn't help himself in the lead up to the WC, added to the fact he's a kiwi, and it's a no brainer people are going to hate on him

Agree...IMO Cooper got a rough deal from the kiwi crowds. I am a kiwi but I did not sit there abusing the crap out of him every time he got the ball...bit immature.

Thats a bit precious... he bought the booing onto himself... it was even serious it was all a bit of fun that he rekoned didnt getto him... just look what happened when he was injured.. the booing stoped and he was clapped off the field.

Does he get booed just for being a Kiwi playing for the Wallabies? Why not boo Kepu or Ioane too?

Its weird given how many non local players play for other countries in Union

No.. it had nothing to do with him being a kiwi and everything to do with the cheap shots and niggle he did on the field...

I wouldnt expect anything less from most sports fans really


Re: Him saying it doesnt get to him. Whats he supposed to say? "Yeah it really upsets me and puts me off my game". He'd get slated from pillar to post for that
