This article is on the AFL site, its not just here in SA that has incompetent/lazy/useless journalists.
The AFL's "official" media team are just about all hacks that piggyback off other "media" work. Every morning they add a story from listening to SEN. Interview the people yourself you clown!

This reminds me of a snooker joke about pink, red and brown. That should be enough to remind those who know it for a giggle without upsetting those who don't ;)

I remember that joke being one of the "tamer" telegrams read out at a wedding I went to when I was 21. Of course going to the wedding and being the only person there wearing a suit and not footy shorts should give some indication to the festivities...a wedding night is like a game of snooker...still makes me laugh

No need to apologise. I can't rebut a question, but I can answer the question very easily.

Yes. Plenty of other teams would want Richard Douglas. He would start for every single team in the AFL.
I'm not bashing Dougy...but to say he'd start in ever team in the AFL is a stretch. Sydney, Hawthorn, Brisbane and Port would have no need for him.

They have markedly improved their midfield with Beams & Christensen coming in.

But Dougy would still get a F22 spot.
They are building a quality midfield absolutely. Would still be their 3rd best midfielder entering 2015 though. Rockliff and Beams both a class above. Would be top of the next group - Douglas, Aish, Zorko,Redden, Christiansen.

Douglas struggled with injury last season which will cloud a lot of peoples opinion. At the conclusion of 2013 he was ranked 29th in the AFL player ratings. At that stage if he was traded to either GWS or Melborne he would have been their highest ranked player going into last season. At Melbourne he would have been 70 positions clear of Lynden Dunn at number 2. Would anyone want him? Absolutely!

I've noticed the quality of journalism on articles on my fb feed and it's scary bad. Blatant spelling mistakes not only through the article but even in the actual headline. It's like they don't even proof read it. But for them to get a fact like the difference between restricted and unrestricted wrong is disgraceful. I remember trying to get into Journalism in University and the marks were so high it was laughable. Makes me wonder how all these 'geniuses' not only got into Journalism at University but how they got a job at a newspaper!!!
