Article from the age

Very, very average article but The Age isn't anti-Richmond any more than other papers.

The amount of negative press we generate we could argue every paper is out to get us. With Carro in the box seat at The Age you'd expect an ever-so-slight skew in our favour (she may be critical of our team, but she's still a Tiger fan through and through).

Anyway, Niall is better than that - a puff piece shouldn't become as critical as it does.

The biggest load of crap i have ever read. I was that angry at this, I wanted to kill someone.
It's about the 5th paragraph down onwards i think.
What are your thoughts on the article?

I thought Sheehans article in the Sun was $hit, Age article is $hit x1000. Do these guys write about 10 possible articles and submit them to the paper then they toss them in the air and pick the crapest one. The Age article was like it was written by a very bitter man.
 
Certainly sounds as though someone is a bit annoyed at last night’s loss. To that I say, suck it up princess.
 
Was going to post the same thing after reading it yesterday morning. One of the most irrelevant pieces of "journalism" I've read. It's like one of the editors said "Jake, I know it's late but Richmond play first up Thursday, can you pump out a few lines for tomorrow's edition and fill a gap I've got on page 3?".
Only Jake happenend to be up to his fifteenth bourbon at the time and had just ordered a takeaway curry for the way home...
 
If anyone can make any sense of that article, then can you please explain it to me, between this article and the one by Mike Sheahan you would think we lost by a 100 points. They are both muppets.
 
What a tossbag Sheehan is, After harassing Terry Wallace with phone calls, e-mails, faxes and the like all summer and Terry telling him he want the Media "low profile" approach to the season opener, even Channel 10 was all over Carlton pre match, I think The Age, 10 and Sun are all dirty on Richmond for giving them the cold shoulder over summer.

What was wrong with that article? I read it and didn't bat an eyelid. It pretty much praises Richo for two pages. No-one could deny we've been pretty terrible as a side throughout his career.
 
The article says that Richo is a Club champ, not a league champ and he is flawed.

I found this bizarre, Richo is a league champ, If we downplay a guys acheievements because his flawed then Carey was a dud, Richo is well regarded in the football community, yes we pick on his kicking at goal but he is now the 12th leading goal kicker of all time and he still has several more years ahead
