Quade appeared to relish his bad boy persona, and that just added to the theatre for the crowd
He tried to, but think it really didn't work for him.

Agreed. His problem was he said it didn't bother him, but based on his performances it clearly did. He definitely miscalculated that one

The Quade hate thing was somewhat amusing but probably deserved after the knee to Richie McCaw's head.
Tho in your collective role as Stoic Custodians Of The Game, you carried on with the booing long after it was probably necessary
After the whole "he doesn't defend in the front line!" got going, nobody appeared to have an issue with every other 10 doing the same once the value of counterattack opportunities was understood.
So it is a mixed bag.

It seemed to have an effect, he was on top of his game (2011 Reds Super), and he created magic on the field. If you think booing had an effect, you keep doing it.
True colours came out when he copped a knee injury in the 3/4 playoff at the RWC though - he got the full applause ovation off the field. It's cartoonish - like Tom Brady playing the 'heel' - but it wasn't representing genuine dislike

"fucken knobhead!"
And yet, you don't boo Dane Coles?
@nta Because Dane Coles seems like a top bloke after the game. Competitive,...yes... kind of like George Gregan!

Righto. Join me here for the slaughtet!
Intensely curious as to how Quade goes. This will honestly be one the strangest selections IMHO.

@machpants hopefully we see him at some point then.

If Quade succeeds here to any degree, the people calling for the borders to come down and us to go overseas selection will go full retard.
What is the bet everytime Quade sees the ball SBW reaches into the hype bag? They must be great mates...

@hooroo I quite enjoy watching him trying to string a sentence together....

It’s almost awkwardly funny. I actually laugh watching it.
