Heppell?

That's right him.

The football media don't have any moral integrity when it comes to who they hire, they gave Wayne Carey a job.

Was Hird a hooker too?

Being a low down, marriage wrecking, drug taking women beater is clearly no impediment to a career in the sporting media but Carey's moral indiscretions were not directly related to football.

A retired AFL player landing a job in the sports media does not compare with a current AFL player serving a ban for doping working in the AFL media. Carey has AFL media accreditation and can interview players on the field and in the rooms. Players currently serving a ban for doping can not get AFL media accreditation.

Fair point and I agree. I was just speaking to the moral aspect, as it seemed to me that that's what some were getting upset about.

Thought this was quite funny of Rucci in this morning's article about Crows members at their AGM.

At Alberton, Koch — and chief executive Keith Thomas — had to juggle the uneasy inquiry on why the Power is aligned to a betting agency. At least, the questions about the bus routes to Football Park are now gone, thanks to the club’s move to Adelaide Oval.

I reckon this should be in the shakes head thread due to the use of obscure, meaningless statistics.

One Q was why can't we have a new shed, apparently ravens live in sheds, somewhere we can get together.
Given where they were created maybe they could meet up in a courtroom as a homage to where they were born.
They luuvvvvv their karparkistan HQ so much their AGM was at AO. I wonder if they were charged for the hire.

Rucci's doing well

this is a good watch.

tells the story of a few of the greatest indigenous Australians to play footy, including Polly Farmer and Syd Jackson.

 

[Hellgood]

Great to see SBS putting some effort into the indigenous game rather than the usual soccer propaganda wank.

I wasn't aware of the Carl Amon story spending his early life in a wheel chair. Just watched a segment on him on fox footy prior to AFL tonight. What a great story.

I saw Carey at Hamilton in Victoria and nodded to him. He stoped and had a chat with me, for about 10 minutes, as he saw my Port Badge.
He said that he liked what Ken has done at Port and loves watching Port play that fast footy game.

I was asking around last year if anyone had a copy of that. Would love it posted here.

Listening to Tex and Roo talking this am, the media also don't care if their radio announcers are intelligible or not.
