Media Carlton in the Media (articles, podcasts etc) - Part IV

[Arr0w]

Media writes poor content about the club, outrage, media shares over the top opinion, outrage

If you need someone to tell you where we sit in the pecking order, you haven't been watching

 

[OnceWeWereKings]

If internally we don’t think we’re premiership favourites then we’re not doing it right.

 

[Thrawn]

I haven't paid any attention to the media at all regarding AFL this year. It feels very nice!

No David King pretending to be a wordsmith.

No Gerrard Whatley getting splinters up his bum while trying to put on as polite a demeanour as possible.

No Robbo waving his stout T-Rex arms around attempting to out-wordsmith David King.

No Sam McLure or whatever Tom Browne's successor is sifting through Ikon Park's garbage bins for unfished smashed avocado on toast.

No Tim Watson grinning like an idiot in front of the camera pretending he has any idea.

No James Brayshaw and Bill Brownless pretending to be a comedic duo by shouting lots.

No Caro nitpicking off-field drama forgetting there's an actual football field with players on it.

Ignorance is bliss.

most of the information you get on your chosen sport comes from people like the ones you have just mentioned - whether you like it or even know it.......

What are we fighting about today and who do I belt?

 

[Jatz]

Anyone that still takes anything Sam McClure says seriously, says more about them than it does him.

Guy is a deadset clown.

This reminds me of a scene from Devil wears Prada.

Not really, I don't watch any of their shows or listen to SEN all that much. I prefer podcasts like Blue Abroad and Pommy's stuff, passionate fans who actually give us analysis. Pom's stuff in particular pre-match is far more in-depth than something like AFL 360.

 

[RPCB]

by having an opinion?

Ask the same people calling McClure a clown/stupid for daring to call one of last years PF teams the flag favourite this year and they will tell you that we are a top 4 side and a “genuine” flag contender this year.

people don't even realise the stuff they know has come from journos with contacts at clubs - they might like to think their sources are special but even those sources have received their info from these "stupid" sports journos.....

gee what an idiot, makes a big statement then doubles down on it - he covers a ball game, not nasa space launch systems......

 

[Jatz]

Bit like doubling down on his Harley Reid story. That went well for him.

The only reason he's in the industry is his old man.

I'm excited to see Hazza and Charlie have a goal kicking blitz up at the Gabba.
Had a Dees supporting friend tell me this morning he has a 'feeling' it's our year. If you knew him, you'd have been as shocked as I was. He was completely shattered after we beat them by a point.

 

[BlueJet]

Maclure is a decent journo, it's the talking head/hot take, stuff that undermines his (& any real journos), credibility.

From memory he said that he doesn't think WC will pick him & Reid doesn't want to go there and he won't.

How many years are we into "Dusty will be at Gold Coast at the end of the year" ? Gotta be at least 3 or 4 now and yet... despite McClure's army of sources he's still down training at Punt Rd.

Worst Journo in the game, complete dingus.

His sister Madeleine used to work for the Club several years ago.

These journos are not Mensa quality but they are paid for an opinion and a sound bite so they are trying to generate views, comments and reactions.

It might not be high end, quality investigative, deeply researched material but at least they are not covering the important stuff.
