WTF? The media are even trying to push us into raw deals now?
They can take their champion data and shove it up their collective clackers.
Exactly.
This media attack has been a common thread. You know when you are only getting one piece of information in anything something is up.
Eg American politics - we are constantly told Donald Trump is an ogre. Yet where are the reports on Bill Clinton? On Hillary Clinton's foundation (50 million taken from the Saudi Arabia plus donations from Qatar), her role in Libya etc? No mainstream media is reporting on this. Something is fishy. Both are extremely distasteful candidates...but why are we fed only one piece of information?
Same principle with this Bryce Gibbs trade - every single media outlet says Carlton should be happy with the scraps at the table. No thanks. It is time to make a stand. Where are the other "media experts"? Does anyone else have anything else to say?
This club (Carlton) represents 160 plus years of meaning something to people. It has to do all to fight for its survival in a system that clearly does not respect the club.
Besides statistics can be framed to argue anyway you want. I could say Whitney Houston is the best artist of all-time as she holds the record for the most consecutive number 1 hits. And then I could put that statistics out completely overlooking any other stat such as the biggest album sale, band with the most number 1s, etc. His stats are framed to supplement his argument.
Here's some stats for you "Champion Data Expert" - Lyons didn't even get in the top 10 of the Adelaide's b&f even if you do "normalise his numbers out over a full match."
