Mega Thread The Media Thread

[Piggy Smalls]

So the rumour is someone fooled around with Langdon’s missus? I was just jokingly saying to a mate that maybe someone had channeled the Toilet Duck himself and done something like this... Pretty shitty form if true.

Know its not the hot topic at the moment, but Ballas is on The Front Bar tonight.

Will be great TV, Ballas would be giving them plenty to work with

The Worst is also running a story why Ryan and Rioli chew gum. Riveting reading.

Pinging and/or pissed??

 

[showemhowtorock]

This + Kim Hagdorn literally crying and coming up with excuses in his interview about it.....

Who else is SOOO surprised that this is the narrative the WA media is going with?

Rioli is not a victim, he deserves everything coming his way if he is guilty. ffs

It would be fun whenever Hackdorn gets on radio and spreads a rumour about Fremantle, if we ring up, and instead of taking him to task, just blubber like he did today:

"...this is shocking news and I'm finding it hard myself to accept it."

I present H. Bennell and S Yarren for a precedent

In the future we may build strong relationships with the media too.

In the future we may build strong relationships with the media too.

Only thing that will fix that is getting our past players in there, in the past they only got in if they shifted to their ideals aka Haze

Now with Pav, Spurry and Mick Barlow entering we have some players who will go to bat for us, need some more players to join them and create some positive discussion.

 

[Granny Val]

Yes, same as with Ryan, making out that he is the victim, spew...

Lost in everything else happening today but I’m amazed WAToday managed a whole article about the Clarkson to Freo rumour. The power of big footy lol

Ballas was very entertaining & I think that’s the drunkest I’ve seen Mick Molloy so far.

Seeing the Ballas highlights you forget how entertaining he was at his peak as well as being a bloody good small forward.

Anyone remember the short-lived "Mick Molloy Show" on TV?

Here's a Quote from Wikipedia: "In its short time on air, the program caused considerable controversy. The very first sketch of the show portrayed Molloy appearing to be drunk, and supposedly urinating on the set with his back to camera. The show was widely panned by critics, and generated many complaints.

The show was originally contracted for 20 episodes, but was taken off air after the eighth."

One of Ed’s teammates from the same draft group Wayne Carey’d his girlfriend. That’s why he is leaving.

Blakely reportedly up for trade according to The West

Ballas was good but he also seems to think he can still play AFL, in a bit of denial perhaps or angling for the GC superannuation gig.

 

[Nickos66]

He'll thrive next year, whether it's under a new coach at Freo or in a new environment. He's one I wouldn't want to see go.

makes you sick, between 6pr sportshows and seven west media all trying to push suma as the savior to take freo forward - please! i hope he comes no where near the club. He had his crack to be patient and takeover from Lyon and lost it. We don't need to have someone who has been white anting the club the last few years anywhere near the club.

More fool Belly and directors if they think he is their man...

I keep hearing about this white anting but no one has stumped up with any proof yet.

I don't think you will ever have concrete evidence, however do you not find it at least suspicious that blokes like Hardie and Crumpet face pump suma up at every opportunity and even give him a chance on radio yesterday? This same treatment is not afforded to any other potential candidate.

I try and avoid 6pr and Suma wouldn’t be on my list of candidates for the job, I just find it strange BF is the only place I’ve heard of this so called white anting, as it stands this rumour is only fantasy , don’t know how it grew legs with out one ounce of any proof.

Yep, I reckon he might have broken some bridges there.

If Basil can’t get Simpson to fire up on this one this week, he’s a coward. He’d better ask about the clubs culture in relation to Sumich’s comments or they will definitely confirm their bias to that club of wee dodgers!

You're never going to get proof short of kidnapping one of them National Lampoon Vacation style and extracting a confession at gun point. How can there be proof? What do you want a federal police investigation?
Crying for proof is just saying you choose not to believe it.

There were multiple sources on this board pointing the finger at Suma at the time (IE years ago when he was out of club and it meant nothing to us). It was him.
