AFL 360

If he's not stupid, he must take 14 mogadons before every show.

That would explain the slurred speech.

More like 14 pots before each show.

 

[Blood Bath]

Jeez, how long until Robbo gets Brent Stakered by Hall? You can tell Hall just wants to cave his head in, always asking him smart-arse questions and trying to force him to tell the public how much he was earning at the Swans.

 

[Beetlebum]

He did say before the ad break earlier that he was going to try and wind up Baz.

 

[Borussia Teeth]

I think Robbo is definitely smart, he's much better though when he has plenty of time to sit down and present an argument. He's not suited to provide his argument right off the cuff and explaining it perfectly.

You must be having a laugh. There's nothing smart about Robbo in any media format he appears on.

 

[Baltimore Jack]

You must be having a laugh. There's nothing smart about Robbo in any media format he appears on.

And he misses the most obvious and concentrates on the meaningless

 

[aussiefooty]

Love watching this show. The discussions they have on there are awesome. The only thing I don't like is when Robbo starts spreading rumours about uncontracted players and goes too far with it.

 

[Father Jack]

He's not 'spreading rumours', he's 'speculating', which just happens to be his job.

 

[Hawker81]

Wish Gerard, would stop calling australian soccer, Australian Football. Confusing enough as it is when soccer is now called football in the media, but calling it australian football is even worse, especially on a football show like afl 360

 

[TheOz]

"You look like a Carlton supporter". Cheers Robbo, didn't know we were all clones (or wogs for that matter).

 

[ajdude]

turned out he was right haha

 

[Hawker81]

TGO does not want to expend much cognitive effort in summing up who a mere mortal barracks for. From the little information he had on hand, was able to accurately predict that Ange is a Carlton man, and not because Ange most closely resembles the stereotype of a Carlton supporter.

 

[Sprout]

I'm seeing double. Two Robbos.

 

[BACCS]

I'm seeing double. Two Robbos.

Haha, it was classic seeing Robbo give Peter Moody a ciggie. I don't know how anyone could hate Robbo, he's the major reason I watch the show.

 

[JUBJUB]

Robbo's line when they showed the picture of Gerard holding Black Cav - "What's your other hand doing ?"

 

[Sprout]

Haha, it was classic seeing Robbo give Peter Moody a ciggie. I don't know how anyone could hate Robbo, he's the major reason I watch the show.

I like him for his entertainment value, but it was pretty embarrassing watching him try to justify his claim that there is mass discontent in the Collingwood ranks. He is grasping at straws, he knows it, but he flounders away trying to stitch together an argument based on nothing. Looking at his list of evidence that included Cloke parking in the wrong spot was frankly laughable.

I enjoy his passion, but as I've said many times, we only need one Robbo.

 

[NSWCROW]

Dat Lions comeback montage
Hopefully someone uploads it.

 

[Jcpdragonx]

What happened to McLure? Glen Archer is too straightforward to make any heated discussion.

 

[Beerfish]

If "liniment sniffers" is any indication of his weekly output, I'd have him on instead of Maclure and/or King on a regular basis in a second.

Also wouldn't be long before he was contributing to the swear jar I reckon..

 

[DardySingh360]

Does anyone know the name of the song that was playing in the background of the preview of this weekend's matches?

 

[UpForGrabs]

Overseas on business.

 

[Hellgood]

Crowley is no doubt a pest, but geez could last nights discussion about the alleged Harvey incidents with King and Archer been anymore one sided? I don't mind these guys opinions on most things, but they were never going to provide a blanced view as they were always going to go into bat for a former teammate. Harvey has been prone to dog acts himself in the past, so it's kind of silly to completely ignore one side of the story and hold one bloke up as a martyr.

Whateley and Robbo should have handled that one alone at the start of the show, rather than being a completely one sided view from two ex-teammates of one of the two guys involved.

Like I said, Archer and King have said plenty of things that I agree with, but the purpose of a panel show is to discuss issues/incidents from various perspectives - King and Archer both are always in unanimous agreement. McClure has some pretty blunt and bizarre opinions and reasonings, but it makes for more interesting viewing.

 

[Beerfish]

King and Archer both are always in unanimous agreement.

I think they actually did disagree on something last night.. can't remember what it was though. Might have been Jobe's Brownlow.. King thought he should be stripped of it and Archer thought he shouldn't be?

 

[Sprout]

Those no.1 pick trade scenarios were good for a laugh. In King's scenario, Essendon give up Hurley and Bellchambers and in return they get Gibbs, Yarran, and Dal Santo or Montagna. GWS get Hurley and Bellchambers for Picks 1 & 19. Another gem from "footy's sharpest mind", according to Fox.

 

[Father Jack]

Some solid bigfooty trading right there

David King's single biggest talent is the person behind the scenes who analyses the games, does the research and feeds him the data for his informative spots on AFL Insider and The War Room.

Without this "base of knowledge" to work from, he would be just another opinionated buffoon who is prone to making provocative general statements and predictions (usually wrong.) But I applaud Team Kingy for the intelligent analysis and useful insight they normally provide during the week. I like when he speaks about specific things within the game and not this generalised bullshit we're so often subjected to from everyone in the media.
