Nothing gets in my groat more than having these chat shows taken over by rugby people who like to pretend football doesn't exist.

Come again?

Brent Diamond: Box Hill Hawks looking to go back-to-back in VFL grand final

That two-minute break in play stalled the Seagulls' momentum, with Xavier Murphy, younger brother of former Hawks premiership player Tom, kicking his third and importantly giving the Hawks a one-goal lead.

VFL or AFL?

Up there with 'Andrew Walker wears hat', and 'Richo eats Chicken'.

Someone edited Dangerfield's Wikipedia page.

Apparently the magpies are showing interest in a couple of mature age players. Mitch Cleary thinks Buckley is hijacking list management to save his own career. I couldn't find a picture of Mitch, so instead here's a picture of his brain:

"Richmond are in the top four. They will play finals. Jeepers the way they are playing they might even win one ... or more.

Greater Western Sydney are not in the top four. Soon they might not even be in the top eight."

Jeepers, I wish I could be as lazy and bad at my job as Michael gleeson

C7 today showed a preview of a story about a Westcoast Brownlow medalist retiring, they showed Sam Mitchell.

 

[BartBart]

So a Collingwood administrator and Nick Riewoldt retire & the AFL do a live coverage of the press conference.

Scott Thompson (300+ gamer), Matt Priddis (Brownlow Medalist), Sam Mitchell (300+ games, Brownlow Medallist)... no live coverage.

Too cynical to suggest it is because the AFL is only interested in covering Victorian clubs?

ABC Grandstand AFL fail.
Instead of loading correct 19th August files for The Saturday Agenda & The Press Room, they have loaded last week's 13th August files again. Oops.

Edit: correct files uploaded this morning. Thanks ABC

One of the best captions I've seen under a photo for a while.

Is it just me or is Derm doing his best impression of Australia's most famous cultural attache while in Shanghai?

 

[Satan]

The contest provided some superb one-on-one contests starting in ruck. The Demons found a gem in James Harmes to quell the brilliance of Rory Sloane, while Nathan Jones and Ross Gibbs seemed to nullify each other. Riley Knight did very well to restrict Clayton Oliver early, but the young Melbourne gun

Canberra times and probably most of fairfax too.

Ross Gibbs , Bryces’s secret twin ?

 

[Satan]

Description under photo maybe a bit of understatement

 

[Ticky009]

Welcome to the Sydney Morning Herald's digital coverage of the Swans v Giants on game day. NOT.

 

[BlueandGoldforever]

Is it just me or is the barracking in the commentary box becoming unbearable?

I mean I find myself watching most games on mute.

Mcdonald ??? Mitchell maybe

Ok, this isn't footy, but I don't think there's a general media thread for this.
Who the FAR'K is this guy who popped onto the Ch 9 Melbourne news the other night while Brett McLeod presenting it? I assume he's from an interstate or regional Ch 9 studio, and someone pressed the wrong button
