Is it just me, but is chapman back to the pre-tippetgate style?

There really is something amiss between the way that he spoke and acted since the tippetgate affair and before the affair and after trigg and a couple of board members have left.

He clearly isn't as defensive and had returned to explaining things in greater detail.

So what the hell did he find out during Tippetgate.

Just saw the Danger interview (been away), and WOW, that's the most passionate and forthright I've ever seen him in an interview. I'm not sure what Slippery Pete was on about, that was not a cliche interview with cliche answers, he was pissed about the media reporting and set the record straight. He's an Adelaide man for life, as I've always suspected. Clearly Rucci didn't see the show...

Yep he sounded like a true professional. Even Sam Newman was blown away with his answers.

It started off like he was reciting answers that had been fed to him, but he loosened up and got a bit more passionate

They do training with how to talk and interact with the media, so its not surprising he would have been told what to say and not say.

Would have happened to any other in similar circumstances.

I thought he was gonna throttle Lyon at one stage. Wish someone would!
As much as people hate Eddie, I enjoyed watching that show when he and Sam were on. Now its become just bogan crap week in week out.

I much prefer the more intelligent AFL shows, like AFL 360, On the Couch, League teams, oh and bounce, no just joking that last one is garbage.

Must say I got fox for the footy channel years ago, but stopped watching those shows mid year (when I realised our season was farked).

Yea can't stand the Footy Show. James Brayshaw is alright but Lyon, Newman and Billy/Crawford I just cannot stand.
Add Before the game to that, loved that show but I dunno why they cancelled it.

I liked before the game, it was relevant when 10 had the broadcast rights, but now its not worth the hassle I think.

Also slammin Sam Lane is now in 7 along with that other Richmond supporter idiot.

In fairness to those shows, I can understand why some would watch them, especially if they dont have Foxtel.

But when you do have Foxtel, there is better things to watch.

Yea, I usually watch those Fox footy shows but only do it after a win. Which is probably every 2 weeks.
So this week is compulsory viewing then???

In a way, calm was restored to AFL in SA today. I would have punched someone if I saw them wearing "Yes we Ken".

Yep definitely will watch the shows this week especially now that the "Poort Adelaide happy hour" is finished. Which is basically what AFL 360 has been like the past few weeks.
But the build up this week is gonna be massive.

No doubt, in fact id have said the club was negligent if they didnt prep him, but as an outsider looking in its still nice to get some unfiltered candour once in a while.
