Thanks to the shitflow from our friends at Channel 7 I reinstated my Foxtel sports package today.

I don't do dreamteam/fantasyfootball or footy tips so I still couldn't give a toss about most games, but will happily watch Port this Sunday live and in HD.

**** you Channel 7 - will never watch your trash coverage and your clients advertisements again.
Should I get to the point that I can't afford Foxtel, I'll just use a radio.

There’s been more investigation into her Crows allegiances than there was I to the ‘sexual assault’.

This is why the law must protect against false or unprovable accusations in the media.

Added to which, the next girl who complains about a footballer is now even less likely to be believed.

There's no legal reason but we're not looking to create any trouble so let's not go down that path.
Ok, assuming she doesn’t keep selling her “story” to the highest bidder to keep this beat up front and centre... I won’t post her name!

I accept that she has more than likely been railroaded by ch7 twice now... but surely she has made her point and had her 5 minutes in the sun - BUT, I’m not sure 3 times is ok!

She is well within her rights to refuse to be interviewed.

Enough is enough!

It's absolutely disgustingly awful that Sam's name has been open to the public over unsubstantiated (and at this stage lets face it, likely mostly false) allegations. His privacy should have been respected.

To reveal her name just makes us as bad as them. I'd rather not sink to their level.

Sometimes the only way to hurt them is to sink to their level.

Imagine if, like, Coca-Cola bought Channel 10, and used the 6 o’clock news every night to install Coke employees as newsreaders and run a bunch of stories about how Coke is great and Pepsi sucks. That’s basically South Australian football journalism.

For bonus South Australia points, Michelangelo Rucci runs a story entitled “Pepsi’s alright I guess” and Coke drinkers begin to complain that the media is unfairly biased against them.
The way Ch10 was travelling the Port Bigfooty posters could've just about bought the station. My line-up for the evening news:

- Macca and Portia (sorry Rick) : Joint news presenters
- Schulzenfest : Sports presenter
- REH : Business report (time limits strictly monitored)
- Power Girl : Weather presenter
- Alyx : Memes of the week
- finbarr : Weekly hard-hitting editorial
- Janus : Shit club/no history segment
