Universal Love I <3 the Media - snippets thread

[estibador]

Cough, cough, cough!!!

I nearly choked!!

It's the only one I ever bother to watch any more.

If we have a win I occasionally tune in to the Sunday morning shows out of some misguided optimism they might actually mention our match, but I soon wish I hadn't. If I want to watch a VFL love-fest I could just watch replays of shows from 30 years ago.

Bring back Basil's Footy Show!

Oh wai...

 

[JunglistPosse]

Alive and Kicking!! What a Santa sack of self preening that show was...it's was like they were all on drugs...hmmm who was the host?

 

[apuchar]

I used to like the show that Dennis Commetti hosted late at night years ago. Naturally, it didn't last long because it was about the WA clubs and was too intelligent.

Bill is such a one-eyed Victorian fat ****.

You meant silly, right?

Just watched AFL Insider on Foxfooty episode2 and they have analysed the Freo WC game .

This was a great episode and I can recommend to watch it.
Really gave Stephen Hill and Danyle a big rap.

Being on Foxfooty it is obviously repeated several times .

late edit ; They had a segment on Kepler and were effusive .
They basically just stopped short of suggesting he
should enter politics when he retires .

They (AFL Insider) were a bit, justifiably reserved on Hill though. I think it was Jason said Hill doesn't know how good he is as he's played within himself for so long. They intimated it was time for him to play (regularly) as well as he did to justify being picked in front of Rich, which is fair if a little naive considering we needed pace more than anything at that time.
Wonder what they would have made of Shepherd over Fyfe if anyone cared enough about Shepherd to make the comparison!

 

[electricfeel]

Also I no longer want to watch the Sunday Footy Show on channel 9 now that Hutchy is hosting it....ugh, kill me (and him).

FREMANTLETICK: Another pre-season with Ross Lyon on the back of an impressive end to 2012 has the Dockers primed. Will grow in confidence after massive MCG final win.
CROSS: Aaron Sandilands achilles injury is a massive concern, Matthew Pavlich has had an interrupted pre-season and Luke McPharlin isn't getting any younger

18 year old, cadet journalist, Matt Windley, (please google your name, you deadshit), getting his facts screwed up like the amateur that he is.

 

[Ghost Pig]

However, he risked losing fans when he posted a photo of himself at the western derby with the tweet: "Go Dockers! Ozzy Rules derby. 108 / 80. Great game. 1st of the season."

Good ol' West at it again, a little more evidence suggesting that, the partiality of the journalist is more important than the journalism itself.

That's just ridiculous. How dare a celebrity barrack against our precious little ducks!!!

How pathetically insular are these poor excuses for journalists? Such childish spoilt brats.

It's a shame because I've always like High Jackman, but thanks to the West I've now realised I'm supposed to hate him because he likes the eagles.

 

[Arcassius]

Garrick Ibbotson picked up 20 disposals in the WAFL at the weekend and Hayden Crozier booted three goals for Peel Thunder, while Tom Sheridon, Jesse Crichton and Viv Michie could all come under consideration if Ross Lyon wants to make changes.

Who is that peanut??

Nice bagging of Sutcliffe after less than 10 minutes on the ground.

 

[Kim Hagdorn]

Easy mistake.

Unfortunately there are a lot of clueless idiots in the WA media these days.

Freudian slip...High Jackman liking the Eagles

It was Clancee subbed out after getting corked ...

Hehe... I did notice that typo but left it in to see if anyone else did.

It was Clancee subbed out after getting corked ...

Getting the name wrong would have been bad enough, but to actually reference DP's game from last week and dig the hole even deeper...

I guess they are hard to tell apart - since one is an Indian covered in tatts with a massive glutes and the other is a four foot aboriginal. They're practically twins!

 

[E Shed]

Sheridon?
That's the weirdest spelling of Chrighton I've seen yet.

Who is this clown, Arcy?

I wanna have a chat with him.

Credited as 'staff writers' ... I wonder if we keep a shitlist of reporters and keep a count going of their f*ups
