James Graham is certainly one passionate man, and the Englishman hasn't held back after learning that the rumour linking Mitchell Moses to the Sydney Roosters was completely made-up.
The rumour broke midway through the week onย NRL360ย after journalist Paul Kent revealed he'd heard whispers that the tricolours were waiting to see how Luke Keary faired this season with his concussion history, and were weighing up making an offer for the halfback.
The co-host did admit though that he hadn't had the rumours confirmed as of yet.
However, Michael Chammas confirmed onย Triple Mย that the rumour was fabricated.
โA couple of weeks ago I was speaking to someone at a club and this person said โlet's start a rumour',โ Chammas said on Triple M's Footy Talk.
โLet's see how long it takes for it to get out that the Roosters are trying to get Mitchell Moses.
โThis person, or this club, decided to continue the narrative about Mitchell Moses and the Roosters โฆ It started by a club thinking it would be funny to see if anyone would take the bait.โ
The rumour mill went into overdrive shortly after it went to air, with 'salary sombrero' jokes mixed between the genuine outrage over how the club could snag someone being offered as much as $1.3 million per season on the open market.
James Graham learnt the rumour was completely false, and teed off live on air.
โWhat two little b****es," Graham declared onย Triple M.
โNo, I'm sorry, in the world of mental health, how has Moses been these past couple of days?
โLike in terms of waiting to put out fires and, you know, โoh are you leaving?' Do you think that helps him?
โBecause you two want to start a rumour, you little b****es.
โWhat an absolute disgrace, they sound like my mum and my sister gossiping.
โI hate gossipers โ like they p*** me off.โ
While Graham was furious over the false rumours, Moses put them all to bed after not only inking a reported five-year, $6 million extension with Parramatta, but then kicking the match-winning field-goal against Penrith on Thursday.
