Doctorhawkes, I removed the quotation that you added back. I don't believe that the quotation should remain in the article because it isn't very neutral and there isn't a strong need to have the specific wording. The sentence After the signing was announced, Maranta was subjected to criticism by former Wallabies player Greg Martin sufficiently summarizes what is said. Let me know if you disagree.

I do disagree. I felt the full quote was too much, but the reduced quote is pertinent. It says the club was letting him go even though he was godson of the coach and related to 2 people associated with the club. Also I think there is a big difference between "subjected to criticism" and "the worst signing I’ve ever seen". I'm not much fussed about an extended quote, but the current article doesn't capture the vehemence of the feeling for the signing. Just my 2 cents.

Doctorhawkes, ok that's a good point. I wasn't aware that you had added a reduced quote (I thought it was the extended quote). I will revert my change. Sam-2727 (talk) 01:23, 3 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
