The David Klemmer Appreciation Thread.

[Jono078]

Hahahahaha f**king amateur hour. Should be an apology to the fans too.

Where does this leave Hayden Knowles then?

Can’t wait to see what else is brought up today.

Also we’ve left our best player out of an important game for us this week over nothing then? Great work Knights.

 

[slotmachine]

Hilarious that they can't even play him now because he wasn't in the squad named on Tuesday

 

[Loose Cannon]

Not sure which is funnier.

The joke this club is, or the joke they are trying to be.

 

[Woosh]

David Klemmer should "absolutely" have come off when directed during the Knights loss to the Bulldogs last week, according to Brad Fittler and Andrew Johns.

Klemmer has been left out of the Knights squad to take on the Tigers in Campbelltown on Sunday afternoon after he gave a trainer a gobful and refused to come off the park for a substitution.

Speaking on Wide World of Sports' Freddy and the Eighth, Fittler said he had never had the situation arise while he's been coaching, and if it did, he would "make a stand".
"That's your job - your job is to coach, and the players are to listen and do their best under that guidance," he said.

He said it was "absolutely" a droppable offense.

Andrew Johns agreed, saying players have to "put the team first.

Not surprised Freddy and Joey not sticking up for Klemmer.

Ah yes, the man who took the chooks to the spoon and lost two un-loseable Origin series is the authority on the subject.

It makes me feel dirty to say, but Cameron Smith is spot on with his take on the matter.

Lol wtf

Phil Gardner should publicly stand down from any football role/decision making immediately.

Complete embarrassment

 

[Yosh]

What is going on? Has anything like this ever happened in NRL history??

The story keeps changing so probably whatever is being reported still isn't true.

Always has been.

 

[Knight Tales]

If that is true then Knowles should get an
Apology too. Gardner signs cheques and balances the books. Parr does all the media at NRL level. The only way forward.

f**king amateurs...

 

[Loose Cannon]

You can’t make this sh*t up!

It mirrors what our players do on the field ie no f**king idea.

 

[Zoidberg]

Reminds me of that week at the end of the 2007 regular season-

Knights had been getting rolled most games, there was all this media backlash concerning Brian Smith's direction at the club and the clean-out of regular first-graders, looked like a second wooden spoon in 3 seasons was heading up the F3 again and then to cap it off, Joey got busted in London for the disco biscuits

The Knights then turned it all around to escape the spoon with a win that weekend

(Checks notes)

Against the Tigers.

Everything’s coming up Milhouse!

 

[Jono078]

I legit don't believe anything.

I still thing something went down during the Eels-loan talk.

 

[alexwilliams_66692007]

Everything’s coming up Milhouse!

[Jono078]

First sight of Hayden Knowles speaking out..

 

[Jono078]

If I were to add a comment in reply to Hayden, did he consider the impact of him going to Gardner and the repercussions it would cause? Was it worth it?

 

[alexwilliams_66692007]

"Phil as the leader of the club was upholding team values before anything else"


Talk about sucking up to the boss... Jeez.
