Bye Bye Jack Higgins!

He's on game day tomorrow.

I love the kid but he's too honest sometimes.

The media are sitting back like a great white waiting til we lose and they will pounce
Roo's was saying he expects the swans to use 'Higgins joke time' to fire them next time. Dunstal told him that stuff hardly works. Waste of time
 
Anyone watching this crap? Gameday. Embarrassing. Richmond, keep Jack away from this bulldust please.
"Blah blah some *smile* we found online, IS THAT TRUE?" That is gameday in a nutshell.

It would be contrived, so no, it probably won't "work."
Sometimes things just happen. Doubt it was a tactic as such. Although Cotchin or someone else probably had to consider whether it should keep happening. It's probably finished now anyway because of the public dimension it has
 
Love this Kid!
In the past weeks, I felt he wasn't playing well. Watching the replys, I was grossly mistaken. Covers the ground at eased.

Cringeworthy questions on game day

Everyone getting a bit of mileage out of Jack to get a bit of a laugh.. Luckily Jack doesn't take himself seriously and seems to reveling in the spotlight.
The curiosity will wear off from a media perspective.
Didn't really mind the lighthearted line of questioning, you couldn't conduct a serious interview with Jack.

Yeh I thought he conducted himself well.

Totally agree. Stupid, dumb and embarrassing questions. Trying their best to extricate as much as they can from a young guy who's got 'that funny voice'. A bit the same on what the media tried to do with Dusty in his earlier quieter years when he was too shy to speak publicly.

How about getting some real hosts!

he did. after he was gone so was i. that show is a junk pile.
I don’t mind Hamish and I think Daisy’s as good as any in the footy media, however with the other lady running the show today I thought it was pretty poxy, not as bad as Tony Jones’s show though, like the footy show it’s more cringeworthy then funny imho.

Switched over to Nine and they still ask the dumb questions. Still amazed at how successful we are. Caddy called us an 'average team' if we don't abide by the game plan and rules. Interesting.

Ham is an odd one. Bit of a snob but he's a footy fan who would've loved to have been there with Jack today. Daisy's alright i reckon. But the show seems to drift into a soporific snore-fest.

Last 2 weeks i have seen the sunday footy show, both weeks they completely skipped our match review & only did votes. too busy laughing at themselves all show, it's like a MMM on tv.

25 disposals through the middle from Higlet in game 10 is extraordinary.

weve got another 200 gamer.

That's all I am interested in. He's just a raw kid but he is getting better every week. Much better. Really excited by his work through the middle. Making a big difference..
