Roast The media....*Shakes Head* Part 5

[OneGreatClub]

Don't think Ch7 are much better.

"Tonight we talk to the AFLW lady heroes from the Crows, and we talk to Tex Walker about the big game today against GWS. A Crows double header on 7 news tonight!"

Might as well have a ticker tape parade for the dual premiers now and get it out of the way.

What's up with the 'drae' logo behind them, even?

Tony Jones lead host on Sunday footy show ugh, opened up with letting the Vic watchers know who Kane Cornes is because of course he played 300 games for a club no one in Melbourne knows anything about.

If it was the other Tony Jones (the ABC one) he would have been introduced as follows:

"Kane Cornes, whose mother Nicole Cornes was famously slandered by a vile, Tony Abbott inspired sexist taunt from AFL media heavyweight Mick Molloy"

The flog then mocked Kochie about his tweet at expecting the club to play finals before allowing Kornes to continue his stubborn opinion about how key figures at the club weren't happy at Kochie for putting the heat on Ken.

Wish Kane would just butt out, he's not apart of the club anymore stop trying to start fires where there are none.

Kane has pissed me off ever since his selfish final season and his retirement to be his dad.

My issue with Cornes is he acts buddy buddy with the players, but then shits on them in opinion pieces. It isn't just reporting on negative aspects of the club, which is naturally ok, but it feels like he tries to start fires for the sake of his career. He has that perennially South Australian media feel about him similar to his Dad. I love that he gets lippy when people abuse him on Twitter, but I do wish he would ease back on the whisper/rumours type information, its shitty journalism.

Oh my!!!

Is that on their banner?

 

[Hammer#8]

They're doing a marketing promotion where the name is misspelt.

It looks like a misprint.

Also the bottle will still stay mispelt after you drink it, doesn't that defeat the purpose?

Nitpicking the Sunday Mail today.

Pride of SA should have read Pride of SA and NT. Only 9 players from the NT in the team.

Well they always like to take what's not theirs.

The conceited nature of their slogan aside, what is the problem? The Adelaide Crows are a South Australian team. Is Port Adelaide not Port Adelaide, or South Australian, because half of our players hail from Victoria?

It has nothing to do where their players come from, for me it is calling a team that was created, and funded by the AFL, to represent women's football in SA and the NT "the pride of South Australia".

 

[Alberton Proud]

They are not the South Australia Crows

They do not represent our state

They do not represent me

I would very much like to see the "Max Basheer Stand" renamed the "Erin Phillips Stand" and the "Wee Licker Room" renamed the "Chelsea Randall Room".

and the state government!

and the NT government.

"AFL Northern Territory (AFLNT) ... have welcomed a decision by the Northern Territory Government (NTG) to increase its commitment to the Crows AFL Women’s team.

NT Minister for Tourism and Culture Lauren Moss on Saturday announced that the NT Labor Government had doubled the team’s funding to $300,000 over two years."

Also, one hit wonder "right said fred" should be recognised for their stellar contributions to the world of music

Was pretty funny when Basheer was met with loud booing when he tossed the coin at the first redeveloped AO game in 2014.

I believe it is an insult to the PAFC to have a stand at our home ground named after that campaigner. At least the Wee Licker Room is out of sight.

I would like to answer that question with a question(to which I know the answer anyway). If Port had got the first AFLW team and won the premiership, would the call to have Erin Phillips and whoever elses name on the grandstand be being made?

How many bloody times can Watson keep making the the 10 best moments of the round by simply getting a disposal.

I guess he left the MFS for the media because he prefers starting fires to putting them out.

My understanding from a couple of firies I know is that he more likely left because he didn't get the special treatment he believed he deserved.
