2015 Non-Crows AFL Discussion - Pt. 1

[Pdub]

You can't block anyone from a press conference. It's available online anyway.

I mean block their reporters from attending and asking questions

 

[_jester]

He's an AFL.com.au journo, a port supporter but 1000 times better than Rucci.

Yeah, haven't been quite sure how to take his articles but that makes sense.

 

[Drugs Are Bad Mackay?]

But then we can't bitch and moan when crap stories about us are written. Double edged sword?

A necessary evil

If we keep feeding quality stories and interview subjects to all the other media outlets so people are going elsewhere for their Crows news hopefully we'll see some action

Had no idea he was a Port supporter, writes very good articles on us and asks good questions in the weekly presser.

Rucci has gone to a new level of trolling.

Crows and port have the same level of booze ban, they are only allowed to drink on an 8 day brake. He praises port for it and criticises the crows for it in the same article.

Someone needs to ask fagan when he is going to have a chat with the advertiser about this stuff being passed as news.

Meh, Rooch is just guaranteeing the crows continue to freeze him out of anything newsworthy.

He's dug his own grave...

 

[FantasticShirt]

Not to mention he can't actually write. He uses a truckload of irrelevant dashes and quotations.

Allow me to demonstrate.

Rucci - a Rabbitohs troll disguised as a "journalist" - has no new information and despite claiming "intel" - otherwise known as inside information - he is forced to post "exclusives" on Twitter for free because no one - including his own "readership" - want to read his "articles".

He's almost as bad as Val Migliaccio who does the soccer articles. I often can't read that dude's articles. He'll have entire paragraphs that actually don't make sense.

 

[BACCS]

So unlucky for Josh Cowan. Hasn't played an AFL game since Round 18 2011, comes in and has 4 early touches, then does the hammy. Luckily it's not a long term injury like his previous troubles, but it's still shattering for the guy.

 

[Pdub]

We need to enlist a troll army to call 5aa when he is on Sat and Sunday mornings, and ruin their talk back, so they stop having him on, lower his profile. Can we convince 4chan he is a SJW or something they hate?

No issue with anything he's written but it seems to me like he's balanced, but not quite happy about it

The fact he's stuck on 5AA on Sunday morning's shows you his current reach.

Thats exactly what they want you to do. Isnt it obvious by now. Do you think if crows supporters stop listening to rucci or buying his rag he would still have a job.

 

[FantasticShirt]

Wouldn't put it past Rucci to be hoping to create some sort of Stevens v Malthouse style feud just so he can be relevant.

 

[chazwazza]

While I think footy tickets are ridiculously expensive, at least you are a footy state. Supply and demand. Up here? If you were trying to grow a code, do you charge like wounded Bulls? Or try to entice people in with reasonable prices?

Fair enough. You're right.

Doesnt that then make us just as bad as the other mob who do the same thing?

Val's biggest claim to fame is an unofficial world record for the most self contradictions per words written

Does anyone else find it disturbing that in that indaily article about port lying about the loss, the state government was going to intervene on their behalf to make sure they got a better deal.

Is a vote for the Labor party a vote for port power.

Both ALP and LIBs have leadership teams full of PAP supporters.

The Advertiser sales are in freefall. He only exists now to be annoying. There's no journalistic value or integrity of information etc. It's News Ltd FFS.

 

[chazwazza]

The Crows have basically given him no access so he's having a dummy spit. He has no intel. Just quotes from weekly press conferences. And Graham Cornes.

He did the same against Port when they locked him out

I guarantee there are old crows supporters, reading his articles with the trust in the news that they have always had and getting angry at the club, it also would be having an effect on neutral supporters. the constant crows negativity, mixed with constant port praise is helping give port record amounts of new supporters.

 

[johnnypanther]

Maybe they've ditched the 12:30 Sunday game because people will likely be having Mother's Day lunches?

They only ditched it temporarily as we are not playing at home this year

Well yea, Jay Weatherill is a massive Power fan.

Jay's already painted the new hospital powaa colours.

 

[Sir Vlado]

I was at a function mid-week, sat on a table with Numero Uno, lets just say the AFC regard him as a joke

As it should be.

Yep and looks horrid
