If I consumed TV news I would be loving the hypocrisy about the drug cheat Chinese swimmer compared to Essendon
What was that though?
The swimmer got 3 months the Essendon players got a year ban?

Chinese swimmer drug cheat is evil.

AFL Footballer drug cheats are misguided boys duped by an evil man, Dank.

Those responsible for the EJ charity game have really lost it now - Ted Whitten ‘would be turning in his grave’ over changes to Legends game (paywalled)

A former Melbourne high-flier has taken to social media to vent his anger at the decision to change the format of the EJ Legends game, suggesting the Footscray great would be horrified. A format change for the EJ Whitten Game hasn’t exactly been embraced. The Score revealed last week this year’s charity game will be played on a rugby oval at AAMI Park under AFLX rules.

Former Melbourne high flyer Shaun Smith vented his anger at the decision on Facebook, suggesting the former Footscray legend would be horrified.

“As you know I’ve been involved in this game for 14 to 15 years and loved raising funds for the EJ Whitten foundation,” Smith wrote.

“It no longer represents the spirit of the great man EJ Whitten. This year will be an AFLX format with recently retired players, played on a rugby oval at AAMI Park. What a disgrace AFL!!!!

“EJ would be turning in his grave, and apparently they are giving players incentives to play… Really… who needs incentives to play for a charity game?????”

CrocMedia boss Craig Hutchison recently joined the EJ Whitten Foundation as a director with his company taking over the marketing and promotion of the game from Craig Kelly’s TLA management group.

Hutchy is destroying everything he touches.

He is AFL plastic nation.
 
It's a disaster, who told them!

This is the thing that no one in the media dare discuss. While there’s a media circle jerk about an out of form Tex Walker there’s a perennial dud in Dixon that has done half of what Walker has done while being 7cm taller, 5kg bigger and only 5 months younger. The comparison is stark.

JJ compares well too!

For all the crap given to JJ, he was a bargain trade, has been on less money & had far greater output.
 
Have the Power suddenly realised Charlie Dixon and Motlop are spuds?
I'm worried they will now improve... but then Ryder is a worse forward.

Motlop out helps them though as a passenger.

Dixon got dropped this week though

You just have to look at the goal kickers for Adelaide and Port to see the glaring story that should be looked at.
Betts- 32 goals, 11th highest
Walker- 29 goals, 16th
Jenkins- 21 goals, 34th
Rozee- 20 goals, 36th
S Gray- 18 goals, 51st
Murphy- 16 goals, 60th.
Yet the story and diatribe is all about Walker and Betts........f*** me!

In a team that has Westhoff, Dixon, S Gray and R Gray, their leading goal kicker is a first year player who has 20 goals in the season. That's incredible.
 
So what.
Walker probably does deserve to be dropped but that doesn’t take away from my point of the heat Walker cops in the media as compared to Dixon.
Added to that Dixon is continually talked up and continually offers nothing.
luckily Sturt don't play port this week - bloody Dixon was the difference at Alberton earlier this year against the best SANFL level defenders in Evans and Stephens in the state

They've replaced Motlop with a defender in Garner and Dixon with another proven flop tall forward in Ryder.

If I was Todd Marshall I'd be looking around.

Stands out like a sore thumb doesn’t it!
Let’s not forget that Lycett was brought in to allow Ryder to move up forward to help out Dixon.......Ryder is dropped because it’s not working and now Dixon is dropped for Ryder and a first year player is their highest scorer with 20.......seriously.

Yep. Wines and Sutcliffe were also playing for Port Power Reserves that day.
It’s a bit like what Glenelg will face with Adelaide this week.
