It seems that Butcher will be on fiveAA tonight

This brings up a few thoughts:
a) have we just thrown him into the media too quickly, after just one good game?
b) will this ruin the mystique surrounding Butcher? I've only heard him speak once before and that was at the locker room (was the first and only time I've heard the word "barrack" used as a verb since 1985)
c) despite that, can't wait to hear him speak
d) what inappropriate label will Rowe throw at him? Racial, homophobic or misogynist?

I am really really pissed off with this if Rowdy is on tonight. If it's Kane Ok but Rowdy is an underhanded pig. Saw him on the SA footy show yesterday and all he did was deride Port. Why the hell throw Butch to the that snake in the woods after one friggin AFL game :( Poor form Port.
 
SR: Geez, Butch, how do you find time to train and cut up chops? Do you like sausages?

MB: he's not a real Butcher Stephen

SR: but does he like sausages? I heard you guys like sausages, because...

JB: um,

SR:...woolly woofters like sausages right Bicks?

JB: Ah, well

SR: don't they Skippedy-doo? Hey Johnny boy. Johnny-Come-Lately. Did you catch all the goals that Eddie and the Jets, Jay-Jay, McLovin', Roooaaaarey, Charlie Warlie Pudding and Pie kicked? Wasn't that a great effort without the Texan Texas Walker Texas Ranger, Ranger Danger Beware of Strangers? Did you see it or were you too busy with the old Pork Chops?

JB:...

MB: that was a great effort Saturday night did you find your confidence with kicking --

SR: Loin chops, T Bone, Porterhouse. PORTERHOUSE! do you get called Porterhouse because you are a Butcher and Porterhouse is a cut of meat and it has Port in it?

JB: no

MB: no

SR: BUT GEEZ it's a great nickname, does Big Dicko Dixie Chicks Chickpea Dixon ever have you over for a glass of wine and a fillet mingon?

Will ask if he is a private school boy, does he like ice baths, does he like drinking red wine and how he thinks the player x from down the road are going.

haha arghhhhhh
 
Just play him in the firsts for the rest of year, regardless of his form and Schulz's form for the Magpies. Can't see us playing finals so we have more to gain from playing Butcher than Schulz from a player development perspective. His confidence is probably still a bit shaky even after Saturday's performance. The more he plays the more confident he'll become.

Poor form Port? Come on. He's 25, I doubt he's that fragile that an interview on AA will affect him 1 bit. Give the people what they want, I'll have a listen.

Listening to Brereton makes one wish he was at Port mentoring our forwards.
Some might think he is too much of a figjam but he does know his stuff when it comes to teaching forwards how to play the game.

I am not a massive fan of Brereton in commentary. But as you say, he does know his stuff. The GWS players seemed complimentary of the work he was doing with their forwards when he was there doing some part time work.

Really I thought he provided one of the most humiliating comments to a player I've ever heard about Butcher.

His flippant comment on no confidence in kicking to him eg if you want to kick it to someone who will miss everything kick it to a butcher. Whatever it was! I was appalled

I think he realised that as soon as he said it, and spent the rest of the game back pedaling saying how he was a big wrap for Butch.

Well still a shocking piece of commentary in my humble opinion. Publicly humiliating a person on TV isn't funny.

Yeah but that was one comment out of heaps and he was trying to be funny. Not.

He also said that with his other skills he should be commanding a higher pay packet than most. That he is one of the best marks going around, a hard worker and the bit I really listened to was when he mentioned where he needed to go to depending on the play.

That last part applies to all forwards, in particular KPFs that demand a defender, and can be taught. There is more to it than just going on a lead.

Wrt kicking IMO his new kicking style will pay dividends. He will most likely lose distance but gain accuracy and if he can kick even 50% of his set shots from 40 out he will end up being one of the best going around.

This is scarily accurate. You have a gift and a curse.

Derm's call was out of line but as others have said he knew it and overall summed up Butch's circumstances as well as any commentators have managed to do. He's probably a tosser but his insights shit all over 90% of current commentators', which to be fair isn't really a compliment.

Only because Butcher kicked 3 goals immediately after he said it.

I thoguht Tony Shaw's comments and giggling about him was worse than anything Derm said.
 
I thought the entire commentary team showed a complete lack of understanding/knowledge about how Butcher has been travelling.
 
the first and only time i spoke to butch was at a post match last year. Came off as a very quiet and reserved but humble kind of guy
