Difficult Dockers - how about **** you Vic Centric Media

[Dockernut]

Post up your anti Damian Bar-rat and Sam McFlog tweets here.

Just read the AFL article. I'm enjoying the hatred.

 

[jedi mind tricks]

I really don't care

They are flogs and this won't change it

 

[Deathly]

Pagans' quote of "Too many journalists not enough stories" applies beautifully to the Trade Period. This shit should be a week long. Unbelievable that the AFL gives these oxygen thieves this opportunity.

 

[ChimpaWompa]

Alas our new "Fremantle First" policy was always going to ruffle a few feathers.

thankfully, trade wars are easy to win

 

[holy diver]

 

[yoong]

Hahaha...
They expected us to just roll over and came expecting an easy win, only be to met with the famous ‘Freo manic pressure’.
I’m quite enjoying this tbh.

Media only wields the power the public allow it too. Everyone can see the stories are click bait in isolation and when the topic is nearly anything else. As soon as people are emotionally invested in the topic, they lose sight. No ones perfect but if people didn't feed the rubbish it wouldn't sell and wouldn't exist. Own worst enemies.

 

[Juggs Magnetic]

Freo have historically been the whipping boys, especially around trade time. Now the Vic’s are pissed we’re not rolling over any more. **** em

 

[MadDocker]

That narrative sells, they perpetuate it, people argue against it and around we go.

Every club has it's ups and downs. Most of the time trading and drafting is more arse than class. That doesn't pay the bills though.

Victoria can eat a bag of crunchy ones.

Love it. Victorians getting angry at us since post season 2011 signing Ross. Nothing new to see or hear. And Barrett? Ha. That’s the best they got? About as bad as Brazil and Barich

Maybe Barrett is trying our Basil and Barich our own West Aussie journos

He is trying his hardest but they are all special plonkers

 

[Caldera]

Need to build a wall and Make Fremantle Great For Once

 

[Righteo]

WA media are just as disgusting. Mark Duffield aside they've all joined the blood orgy too

 

[TheMcManusNose]

What I take from all this is that none of them have any ****ing idea what is going on.

**** it's entertaining though.

 

[Demons09]

Nothing trumps the Peter Bell leaking the rumour of Beams to Collingwood , what’s funny is the muppet Brion supporters that actually believed it.

 

[Tbonefreo]

Nice to be in the media for a change i guess

 

[freo84]

Gosh I miss the Freo that bent over and just took it with no lube....said no one ever.

Being accused of looking for a win rather than a win/win is hypocritical by the media considering their stance when it came to other clubs in a similar position in the past.

Why should we as a club trade a contracted player who just won our B & F? We are under no obligation to trade Neale. None. We don't have to do a damn thing at all if that's our choice. Brisbane have to make it worth our while to let him go. The ball is in their court so either they start playing ball and offer something worthwhile or they don't and we keep Lachie.

Melbourne...oh Melbourne. Leakier than my damn bathroom tap. Their use of the media has been first class however feeding the media trolls half truths won't force us to cough up more that we are willing to pay. Remember when your list manager came out and said that the only way to get May is to trade Hogan. This means that you a) Want to trade Hogan and b) See May as a better alternative. This weakened your hand considerably as it tied the May deal in with our Hogan deal.

I haven't really said anything new or ground breaking I'm just frustrated that what appeared on the surface to be some easy trades has gotten quite messy and we seemed to be the scapegoats for what ever twisted and diabolical reason.

LONG LIVE BELLY!!

Joey Montagna and Brad Johnson are good value on foxfooty’s trade show each night. Good to have some sensible commentators

Matt Thompson and Jake Hevron (I think there names are) were ok on trade radio as well. Thompson was the first person to say how can we judge this without knowing all the details.

 

[Jezzitizle]

I hope there is some great master plan behind all this, we will find out on Wednesday.

 

[FirstAccount]

Listened to Damien and Sam live on Trade Radio and agreed with them completely at the time (it was an emotional day).

Though didn’t like Sam talking about us ‘parading’ Jesse around - luckily Lachy Reid put him right there.

Isn't that the thing.

If getting a good deal is being "difficult" so be it.
Just cause Jesse is from WA, we must want to pay what Melbourne wants, so they can get Steve May.
Melbourne appear more worried about that than anything else.
