Roast The Media Watch thread

[Yoda_]

Just hope Jono Brown stays true to who he is as a person and doesn't get lead down the wrong path by the muppets already in the media. Ala Mike Hussey with the cricket.

Who is the best media personality out there?

Kick things off and vote Gerard Whately (as has been mentioned before). He is investigative, thorough and knows his **** with the right people in the right places (who gets a copy of the ASADA verdict before anyone else?).

He is impartial and rarely sticks his head out with the tough calls, but that's a good journo there, isn't it?

 

[eth-dog]

Whateley's good. I like Baum, Quayle and Connolly. Jesse Hogan splits his time between AFL and cricket but he's also one I like.

 

[GUMBLETRON]

Baum is a walking mixed-metaphor.

 

[Zach Package]

I didn't mind Jon Brown's work on Saturday. More of his type and less Matthew ******* Campbells, please.

One game in and Brown is already my favourite caller by some distance

Not sure about having the best voice for commentating and such but he is unbiased so far. Hopefully stays that way.

 

[TheFrenchCut]

Brad Johnson is to commentating as Simon Kerrigan is to spin bowling.

 

[Don Won]

Baum is a walking mixed-metaphor.

But he doesn't mince his punches, which I respect.

Can this please happen to Damo or Caro? Pretty please?!

Seriously though, shocking behaviour.

Imagine if Barrett did it to you.

I'd jump the counter back hand him to the ground and then put balls in his mouth.

Depending in the level to which the blood lust takes over a camel clutch would not be out of the question.

heheeh i read that as pulling his balls out his mouth. That was a very satisfying thought scarily.

Damo's really hit new heights this week.

IF
Jobe Watson’s teammates were to be honest

THEN
they too would rather be downing beers while watching Warner and Anderson at Edgbaston.

No shit Sherlock. Players would rather be on holiday sinking piss at the cricket than playing football in a side that's struggled? Wow-****in-wee

IF a coach is asked a question by the media and answers it (in his own eyes) honestly

THEN the agenda driven folks of the media can continue their agenda against said coach

Based on the first 2 days at Edgbaston I think I'd rather be fishing but yeah, point is well made.

 

[Stopher]

No surprise that I'm calling out Flog Barrett again here for some classic displays of double standards.

1) Rambles on about Buddy only needing to win one flag with Sydney to justify the ENORMOUS contract and actually made a point that it's not about merchandise, memberships etc, but all about winning. This coming from a bloke that has repeatedly slated the Tom Boyd trade. So using his own logic, if the Dogs win the flag on Saturday, that's the end of the discussion regarding Boyd, right?

2) Bagged the coach selection process at Essendon when Bomber stepped in for 2014 and again when Worsfold became coach late last year. His point was that it was disrespectful to the other candidates to put them through a sham of a process. Then on the current Brisbane selection process, has repeatedly said that it's Chris Fagan's job to lose and he's the very short favourite. Is the fact there has been AFL intervention in this process why Damo has said SFA criticizing the Lions for doing the exact same thing as Essendon.

Add them to the pile.
