Kane is no genius.but when he smells a rat,he calls it, when he believes a player is shot, he calls it, when he believes player politics effects selection...he calls it.

CrapClure gets off reciting BF rumour that has already been regurgitated as Croc vomit.

It was a quote from a newspaper article tbf.

Yeah but why couldn't it just have been put up on the screen and read out, rather than from his phone? Not the first time he has done it either and he has read out text in the past. He also just has his phone sitting on the desk for the whole episode too. For someone who self-promotes himself as the ultimate professional, it's incredibly poor to have your phone out like a 15 year old kid while hosting a tv show.
 
So Caroline went overseas with 7-8 weeks to go in the H&A season?
She used to holiday in Europe during football season even when she was Chief football writer for Age! I follow a few overseas sports and Jane merger known that to happen.

I only watch on Wednesdays just to see Ed and his Tasmania plans.

Ed wants a North/Tasmania team to play 11 games in Tasmania and 11 games in Victoria?

Hold on, didn't Caro criticise two Saints players for returning to Melbourne cause of family reasons (newborns?). But she leaves during the season to visit her daughter in Holland.

And she's The Ages Chief AFL writer? Hypocrisy much?
eh, yes and no. She's far easier to replace than a good footballer, and if her fill-ins stuff up, the consequences are less serious

She's not the Chief Writer.
Jake Niall is.

Caro said last night that she has never used any 3rd person information to make comments on issues..

WTF??

How many times have we heard her say 'a person close to the club told me'....or 'people connect with the club have advised me'

Hutchy tried to pick her up on it but she said emphatically that 'I would never do that and I have never done that '

Fair dinkum. She is a dead-set liar.

Her point was don't disguise your opinion by saying it belongs to other people.

I.e don't say 'people on social media are wondering why you didn't play Alex Keath?'. Which then gave Luke Beveridge the opportunity to dismiss the question.

She didn't mean journalists can't quote sources.
