Biased/incompetent media coverage

Watching the Sunday Footy Show on CH9

Waiting for the wrap up of the Eagles v Hawthorn game

Last game to be mentioned - score, player votes, no highlights, no discussion.

Not that it was an important game or anything - one of only two games this round that involved two top 8 teams, a rematch of the 2015 GF sides and the result of which may have put a dent in Hawthorns defence given it knocked them out of the top 2 with a round to go. ****ing pathetic

They did open with the Nicnat injury and how it ends our premiership chances for 2016 though

****ing pathetic - national show my arse

Watched it for the first time in probably a year or so, any time West Coast were mentioned Lloyd would jump in with a "they can't win it" "jury's still out" etc... Same bullshit he's been spilling for a couple of years now. Did WC go something to him during his playing days? Because he seems to have a real grudge.

There was a real competition going on between the two clubs when Lloyd was playing caused by when Sheedy/Malthouse were the respective coaches which started the scarf waving spectacle. Obviously his hate goes back to that time for he would have had to contend with some damn good backnen from the Eagles. . Never could stand him - a real pretty boy. Used to throw the grass up to get the wind factor even when he played under cover lol!! Amazing

Have noticed that Lloyd finds it difficult to give any praise etc re the Eagles on Footy Classified as well. The other night one of the other Commentators on the show made a comment along the lines "Wouldn't write West Coast off as we havnt seen their best form this season yet" and Lloyd couldn't find a good word to say - he was just so anti Eagles that it stood out like a sore thumb! Don't really know what his problem is.

Your first post would explain the hate then. I was too young to that remember much from back then. Although I do remember him throwing the grass up even under the roof, as you said.

Yeah, I've watched footy classified at times and I did watch it last week. But he was doing this last year too IIRC, wrote us off despite sitting around the top of the ladder all season... I've never liked him either, absolute twat who's had that same dumbass hairstyle that kids used to have during my high school days. Probably wears Lynx Africa deodorant too.

Perhaps he holds a grudge from this incident? was at the game and can remember bombers fans were close to rioting. Anyhow, Llyod can go get f***ked

HUNTAAAAH!

Great bump, double points for Hunter using his head knowing there was no chance of a brain injury to him.

In Access All Areas Eagles weren't mentioned until the 6 minute mark (10:17 minutes total). In the first 6 minutes there was only one mention of a non-Vic team and that was the banana and Eddie Betts thing, which they talked about for about 10 seconds.

Here are the things that are more important than the Eagles beating the team on the top of the ladder and losing our most important player.

• Stringer getting dropped and the Western Bulldogs not saying why he was dropped
• Melbourne not playing well
• Essendon
• Another segment on Essendon

And then I got excited when they started with "The Eagles were able to pick apart the Hawks...", which then led to disappointment when they went on to talk about the Hawks and them not having Stratton.

After 45 seconds of them talking about the Hawks they finally got around to talking about the Eagles. They then talked about Nic Nat injury. Not that it was devastating, just what WCE are going to do moving forward. No mention of the Eagles looking like a contender in the 3 weeks Nic Nat has been back or anything like that. Or how well we played against the Hawks. Nothing like that. They then went back and talked about Hawthorn.

Solid reporting guys!

LLOYD HAS A GRUDGE

 

[Matele]

**** them. We don't need the medias endorsement anyway.

 

[Milenko]

We get great coverage on Foxtel's On The Couch. Almost every week we get more than a token mention.

Gerard Healy practically has a boner for us, and Kingy & Browny are always happy to spend the time dissecting us - positively or negatively, depending on how we're travelling obviously.

Jason Dunstall can be a bit of a twat though - he struggles to embrace the Gov Love and thinks Steven May is better!

Is there a video out there of it?

Hutchy was talking us up on footy classified last night

Might as well just write the season off now we're cooked if he's backing us

Great stuff from Gov.

Cant see the likes of Darcy and Bartlett looking outside of Victoria for AA players though

I am way too reliant on autocorrect and i stuffed up my keyboard settings and now i don't get auto correct, suggestions and the size of the keys are way too small for my fat fingers.

 

[Yamumluvsbigcox]

Thought Gov , kennedy and shuey would be locks Iin the AA team .
Priddis and gaff in squad .

They will probably squeeze shuey out for Merritt or someone else in a bottom Victorian team .

Priddis and Gaff were both down this year, don't think they make the 40.

Shuey will make the 40 but probably not the 22 due to the fierce competition for spots.

Gov and Kennedy should be the only certainties, but we saw with eMac that nothing is a certainty.

 

[Keys]

Gov is behind rance and Talia for an AA spot

He should be next in line if they go for a 3rd tall though

He'll be in the 40 but not the 22. Same as shuey

JK will be our only AA this year and I'm comfortable with that without thinking we've been hard done by

P!SS OFF and take your reasonable, rational approach over to the "informative and competent media coverage" thread please.
