Insightful Media Coverage

[ziad]

I would love to see some actually tactical analysis explaining why the good teams are so good. On the couch tries, but sometimes it is clear that the long retired players don't really know what is going on. Some articles delve into stats, but I always feel that is too open for interpretation. The football media loves to assume everyone is anti-intellectual and just wants shallow hot-takes, lurching from one made up issue to the next.

I learn more about the game by reading things on this forum than anything that comes through the media and don't really watch any footy shows anymore.

The footy shows are a thing of the past form. theres 20hrs of my life each week i have back.

Any intelligent questions, or was it all Nelson bashing from Facebook mouthbreathers?

Keys got a question in.

Ask Simmo is a big one this week. 500 questions were sent haha

The footage looked hilarious to me. Simmo looked like an older version of Max Headroom most of the time.

Fox Sports loved that 4 on 1 spoiling contest.

It was a bit similar to the contest late v Bulldogs. Although the result of the individual contest was not quite as crucial.

So no intelligent questions then



There were actually some good ones and props to Simpson for not just persisting with this but answering the questions honestly

I wanted to know if he gave the players a bake in light of posters questioning his perceived softly softly approach. Think it’s fair to say they copped one on the weekend from his answer

Simmo's reaction after Goss told him their were 500 questions...haha!!!

Props to him for actually turning up to cop that, can't be easy after such a flogging.

It's annoying Simmo has cut off the background there, which of course reads.

Friends. Fold the club. Flags.

He was pretty bristly about that team store voucher. Was pretty decisive about the guy in Sri Lanka winning it.

Now do one for number of hours spent melting on BF autopsy threads since 2012

I’d say Port and Freo are clear front runners for melting on BF boards about games that have nothing to do with them

How do you think they calculated that? Has somebody marked the point that every lead changed I'm a game?

Sort of. They have time in front stats on each game, so presuming that it has been collated from that.

Anyone who's not obsessed with that site is not a true footy fan. I'd give up my life savings to save them or footyjumpers.com

footyjumpers.com worth just $17 says Ochre.
