You haven't gone soft on Tony McGuinness now have you??

Great read as usual. Keep doing Rooch's job for him and maybe he'll send you a share of his pay cheque.

At last some recognition by Rucci for EXPECTed TO WIN

manureid · Oct 1, 2008

Mentioned in the Roast was he??

Steve Dore · Oct 1, 2008

No. .

Yeah he was - Rucci referred to "Expected To Win" and awarded him a JAMES BOND DIPLOMA for his "secret recordings at Alberton. The sweep ordered of the Power's offices to find the bugging devices so far has turned up nothing".

Yes, ETW got a mention but this transcript didn't. I misunderstood the question

RussellEbertHandball · Oct 1, 2008

The pressure is on ETW to get into the roast next week.

Hmm. I read this and thought Rucci was finally going to be straightforward about where he'd lifted his transcripts in the previous fortnight's Roasts.

I've now got the paper in front of me and while he's named ExpectToWin he hasn't identified BigFooty.

Given that he's made a snide remark earlier in the Roast about internet sites not being held to the same standards as the traditional media it really should be expected that he'd come straight out and give credit where it's due rather than drip feed out the information over a period of weeks such that only a very careful observer on BigFooty could ever piece together and work out his source.

IMO an innocent reader of the Tiser could well be left with the impression that Rucci's quotes of ETW's work are inside information based on actual conversations rather than satire.

I'm writing my blog entry today which will give a run down of what's happened in relation to this and with a few thoughts regarding the relationships between message boards and the more traditional media.

Might make for interesting reading for you, Michelangelo.

Isn't this weeks Roast the last for the year?

There are plenty more Transcripts on our board Rucci could use if it isn't.

As I'm not in SA and the roast isn't online I was unaware of it.

Guess I was hoping you would be continuing on over the summer ETW. There's the draft camp, trade week, sacking of players, AFL stuffing up the northern expansion, a traditional post season board room coup d'etat at a Melbourne club, PSD dramas etc.

Mmmm. Interesting.

Rucci uses plagiarises someone else's work, then mentions the author by name.

Is it possible that ETW = Rucci.
BigFooty troll (albeit semi-humorous at times) = local media troll?

Has ETW yet maligned Rucci as he has the PAFC coaches and players?

Makes you think dunnit!

I think you read to much into things Portly, maybe you have been affected by the "failed revolution" or the record 119 point 2007 Grand Final defeat.

I personally blame Mark Williams for your current state of mind.

I would advise you take a holiday to clear your head. Tuscanny is a nice spot I hear.

Not to mention
