That was already answered.

What I like least about Bowden's comments is him only talking about trying to be competitive this week, not trying to win

What question was he asked?
In what context was this reply quoted?

I don't believe that people still, in this day and age, judge others on what a journalist or sub editor sees fit to print.

Wouldn't want to put you out in any way TA......

[Ramps]

Bowdens remarks show why we arent successful. In life people start out to win or achieve a goal or an ambition, at RFC we have experienced players who just wanna compete lol ... what a joke. It would be like having the opportunity to root a supermodel, but deciding youll leave after the first drink... 

[Tigermonk]

lol having a good laugh at some of you wanting to kill bowden off after round 1
he was hardly on the ground last week
Blame Wallace he set the side out & his the only one to blame
looks like l be defending my hero again this year 

[Infamy]

Hardly on the ground? No, just hardly sighted

He was given worst on ground by MMM

[Tigermonk]

Cut the rubbish

MMM are a bunch of morons, and so are those who believe all the tripe they say

[Infamy]

Doesn't matter what you think of MMM, Bowden was complete crap

[TigerTime]

Doesn't matter what you think of MMM, Bowden was complete crap

so wa 95% of the team and the coaching staff, so your point is?

[Tigermonk]

whole team was crap l dont care who rates who its pretty hard when all are crap

My point it that he's been crap for longer than the others

[Tigermonk]

thats what you say
he did more good for the club showing the younger players how to play under preasure & what to do at them moments than lose the game
he won games for the club taking marks in defence,  putting his body on the line like he has done all them years
he is still out there because he is the required player & thats good enough for the supporters who back him
not to mention l prefer to see him at Tigerland than being in a skunks jumper
Bowden will play 300 games for the club so what you have got to say about him means nothing
hope he plays a blinder this week & shoves it up your ass

[Hellenic Tiger]

Thanks TM I hope he has 25 possessions in a passive defensive type game where he lingers next to a marking ruckman to take the easy handball. Holds the ball up from a defensive mark for 45 seconds or until all our loose players are manned up then he kicks it 15 metres down the line only to get it back for the next possie, and then watch Cam Mooney take a strong mark whilst Bowden has a go at a 2nd year player who should have laid a better tackle. Then if we are fortunate enough to lose by 83 points again we can't blame Joel as he was a stalwart in defence with 25 possessions and close to 100% efficiency compared to last week.

Bowden is a fraud of a player.
Bowden is a fraud of a public speaker.
His conference on Tuesday was nothing short of embarassing to the type of footy club we have bred at RFC and the fact that he said what he said and he is the public speaker for the club. Its not just alarming its absoluting mindblowing.


Nothing personal to you TM.Just my opinion on Bowden and the sorry on and off field state of affairs regarding our players.
