you can add driving home whilst wrecked from a well known east hull publichouse and getting caught by the rozzers......
not to mention puting a chair over someones back whilst again wrecked in a nightclub......and assault again.....

and singing red red robbin at the top of his voice in the affor mention watering hole whilst pi$$ed when he was captain of hullfc can you beleive.....the man deserves everything thats come of him,...was a good player, never a good pro.....

that sums him up...should have stayed at fc, NOT just saying that as an fc fan, but the guy shat on his own doorstep and its back-fired BIG TIME

hopefully he made that comment before he got spanked by the winner of a reality boxing show competiton.

And I'm not sure of the timing of his comment that he was the best boxer in the world too, including Floyd Mayweather...!!

a decent living bloke put an absolute top nob end

Nathan Wood's brother.......

Never liked him, average player

I've never heard any bitterness from Wayne Bennett towards Mundine and before the last Grand Final I saw an interview with Mundine (who had played under Brian Smith and Bennett) talking about his time working with the respective coaches and he was full of praise for both of them. Come to think of it I don't think I've heard of a former teammate or coach of Mundine ever dissing him, the teammates always said he was ultra professional in his dedication and a good example to others for his drive.

I think you are looking for some pretty loose reasons to compare Mundine to Paul Cooke, I don't see any likeness.

A better Aussie comparison with Cooke is Craig Gower, or Julian O'Neill. Great RL talent and a smart bloke who talks well when interviewed. But prone to acting like a complete tool when he's had a few drinks and has burned his bridges too many times.

I thought it was a dolphin costume.

It must be something in the air over in Hull, Paul Cooke, Ben Cockayne, Gareth Raynor and now Jordan Tansey is at it again. www.skysports.com/story/0,19528, ... 90,00.html

Basically, a very talented man, who has lots of good attributes, but (and it's a big but), the fella's just a psychiatarist's dream come true. I've seen him DESTROY us on more than one occasion. Anyone remember the HKR home game '08 (Lowes in charge....shakes head) when we were cruising the game by 16 points(iirc) with less than 10 mins to go, and Cooke finally woke up......he single handedly bewildered us. We simply couldn't deal with him.
John Kear (who's had him twice as coach) can't control him, likewise others. More issues than Gazza, or just a total kn0b?...the jury's out

You can't compare him to Gazza, who is a nightmare on legs still surrounded by a little group of bloodsucking hangers on. I can't see Cooke coming back at a decent level, a full year out at 29 years of age will just about finish him. It's a shame because he really is very talented when he puts his mind to it, but it would appear that no-one (not even Barrow) will take a chance on him.
