AFC Player Twitter Accounts

[Geoffa32]

It is interesting now that the public can get information directly from players and clubs, I wonder how that makes the traditional media feel, as middle-men who can only regurgitate to us? Nervous I would guess. Why would I buy The Advertiser (I don't) to find out about Patty's 5 year extension when I've already heard about it on Twitter?

Given the tabloid nature of most of the Footy media I see it as a bit of protest against the nature of media sensationalism. Get in first before the media construct the story in their interests.

The flip side of this is that if the clubs/players control the media we will only know what they want us to know.

...leaving journalists to do actual investigation, instead of rumour-mongering and fiction.

Making most current Footy Journos redundant........

Can't be the REAL crowmo - he retweeted one of my tweets! But, I'm now following him.

#reinstatecrowmo ?

And if Kristof has posted it.. I'd suggest it probably is the real crow-mo.

You should be able to figure it out in 3 tweets though.. he had a very distinctive style after all.

 

[Southerntakeover]

Here's one for you - @crowmo99.

Although you did just pierce the veil of your own anonymity.

Even if I fail this uni assignment that is due today, it doesn't matter, because Sando and Patty have joined Twitter in the same week. Over the moon with this news!

it is massive news hey?

I hope you don't find this bizarre, but I noticed that you're studying Journalism at UniSA. What year are you? Because I'm studying Journalism too..

EDIT: Ha, never mind. I knew it was you! It's Jennifer from Digital Media.

Cheers for all the follows guys. Think I've got it sorted now.

One post since you joined

It's real. twitter is a good forum for him.

Well, I have my name up front in my user name, so my anonymity is pretty mediocre.

What a coincidence! Seeing you at the footy, and now on big footy! I skipped the thursday lecture of digital media to concentrate on my assignments in DLCS and POJ.

Edit: Are you on Twitter Jen?

 

[Jilly]

I only knew his first name until today. Plus I know there's more than one Henry in journalism, which is why I asked what year he is.

Lol, you didn't miss much. I left at the break to work on my assignments too.

And yes I am @LadyJillington

Is that you Oh lord great Dangerfield?

 

[Allefgib]

Pretty sure he'd be the only tennis star as well...

Is this real life...

 

[Jilly]

I didn't know he played tennis until today either! We only really know each on a first name basis from talking briefly before lectures and after seeing each other at the football.

 

[Glenno23]

If it really is Danger, needs his account verified, until then, i call impostor!

 

[blackbird_RGB]

find it interesting that Ricky henderson and Mumston part own a racehorse together, along with some other people...Tower of Lonhro

More likely an opportunistic alias account.
