Pretty sure you're right

Checked my posting history and could find two instances where I've run with "calf", both times ******* about alluding to his prior drug use - on our board where we enjoy poking fun at you guys as much as you guys enjoy potting us here





At the same time I posted the above I also posted this



The linking of Bennell's calf injury to his previous drug use only an idiot would genuinely believe but I'm not above shit stirring from time to time. I leave any trolling off this board though for the most part

Also never said I wasn't stupid

You have a good memory
Fair call, and that's why I very rarely visit your board.

You are quite right with the idiot call though, because almost without exception the Eagles guys I run into tell me it's drugs rather than injury. If the kid is genuinely trying to turn his life around it must be great for him and his family to hear that crap.

Exactly. People love spreading malicious rumours but never think of the persons family.

I can only imagine and think how unfair it would be for my parents to hear that throughthe media. The media in our papers are like one big gossip column.

These young sport stars can't even make a couple of mistakes in life without it travelling around with you.
 
Talk that Bennell's continuing absence is any other than a calf injury is stupid. Suggesting it's racially motivated is almost as silly though

Apparently that comment relates to what was said on the SEN breakfast show yesterday, which wasn't reported. Karl Langdon even said that it went over the top and that's why Ross mentioned the racist overtones.

Best way to stick it up to the media in 2017 - Fyfe resigns for 5 years even though Mundy retains the captaincy, Freo win a flag with the 2013 defence and a bit more flair going forward, Bennell wins the Norm Smith

What about your new buddy?
 
I don't know how Bennell can possibly beat Chris Yarran as "worst recruit of the decade." I mean we know Yarran won't play a single game for Richmond and he cost far more than Bennell did. Explain that one in any way other than the media are useless at their job. Good luck to anyone who tries.

Stupid comment.

This is a reference to the SEN Garry Lyon comment....not the best bloke to give a non researched opinion.

Good to see the Fremantle media beat up in full swing before the season even starts. But, this is what the players and the game want I suppose. 24/7 coverage to push up the media rights. So when there's nothing to actually report, they gotta make stuff up. Rinse and repeat. SHOW ME THE MONEY!
 
Guys, wasn't sure where to ask this so going to throw it in here.

When can I purchase round 1 tickets? Have tried the usual sites and google but can't find an availability date. Will be coming over from QLD for it so keen not to miss out.

Thanks in advance.
 
There's grey on both sides for sure. Drugs and race are both red herrings in this case and perhaps they will cancel each other out. I just like how RTB spoke aggressively in defence of Bennell. Having a father figure that has your back, that will stand up for you in the face of critics can galvanise a group. I liked it and I'm sure it wasn't lost on the lads.
this is it for me. well said
 
Surely we must be able to claim several of the top 10 Worst Sports Journalists In The World??

I don't think they're on sale yet Dev but I'm not sure about that.I'd just ring the club or Domain or ticketmaster and find out.

Lyon = F.L.O.G!
The ego has still not crashed and burned for the great hairy lunchcutter!

For a second I thought you meant RTB when you said Lyon - I thought he doesn't seem that hairy? And whose lunch?????o_O

Garry spent too much time with the 12 year old boys trapped in men's bodies that comprise the Footy Show panel. Brayshaw, Eddie and Sam are all A grade flogs and Garry has followed their example. He wanted to be both the blokey, larrikin Footy Show compere and a serious footy journo.

He's a lightweight who knows SFA about what happens at footy clubs and that includes Melbourne FC. I remember him trying to browbeat Caroline Wilson about what some senior Melbourne FC figures had told her. When she said "Do you want me to name them?" Garry folded up like a cheap card table. Probably the most watchable thing he ever did on TV.
 
I was reading recently about the run-in Gary and Sam Newman had with Susan Alberti, not really paying much attention to it at the time, and I realised what a piece of shit human he's been all along.

Apart from him crying like a baby when being stretched off with a broken leg!

P.S. Always refer to our coach as RTB!
