And chomper Graham is set to plead Not Guilty
I almost choked reading this crap.................
On Tuesday Bulldogs chief executive Todd Greenberg admitted the footage of Graham's alleged attack on Slater was "damning".

"It's difficult obviously because the pictures are quite damning," Greenberg told Triple M radio.

"... James has been absolutely outstanding for us in 2012.

"I would put him in such a high class of of footballer, he's a wonderful guy, he's done a huge amount of work for us in the community and he's just a good quality human being."
Ah Yes - The pictures - I guess he took the mouthguard out to give Billy a kiss :lol:

He was a thug & a turd at St Helens & now we are to believe he's a little angel ::)
We all saw & heard the Mad Monday titbits Greenberg,(Now that may be an expensive party)

Definitely did. All a part of the Bulldogs "rough Slater up" tactics.

They were filth.

Yep saw it was well. I always had respect for Stagg as a player before Sunday night but after he dragged Bill away with a choke hold at the start of the big stink and then after the try incident i don't think much of him at all.

As an aside, i'd like to send a big fark you to ME bank, Skins and any other company who couldn't dump us quick enough after the cap scandal. I'm sure they'd have been overjoyed watching the boys lift the trophy with their companies name/logo nowhere to be seen :lol:

I feel that Slater changed after origin 2. After playing through that game with a bung knee and the whole nsw team giving it to him as much as they could. Slater just become a better player from it. He isn't letting that crap get to him like he used to. Stepped up big time after that biting incident. Teams need new tactics I think.

Slater shrugged off "the kid" part of his game a couple of years ago. It's just that NSW and the NRL media continue to underrate his game and anything to do with Melbourne.
He definately stepped his game up a notch after the bite, as did the whole team. Not that we were lagging beforehand.
I think it's a Des Hasler trademark to play like a pack of grubs, just like the Manly side he created. He's on a winner with the Bulldogs in that department, but that's all they'll be winning.

Billy is, and was in 2012, the fullback of the year. It was a joke that Barba got that award simply because Bill missed a handfull of games.

Bulldog fans are saying Billy should be charged with bringing the game into disrepute if nibbler is found not guilty and he should publicly apololgise to nibbler. :lol: :lol: :lol:

He also raked him across the face and stuck his fingers in his mouth. Scum. Would expect nothing less of the Bulldogs. Poor Todd has done so well to rebuild them.
