Footy media , love’m or hate’ m ?

Barrett has tried to WRITE the Tigers off all year, he is so unaccountable to his dribble, it is purely his hopes and dreams that Richmond fail, nothing to do with logic or facts. would have to be the most over rated so called expert in the media, I especially loved his prediction on the Tiger Dynasty ending against Port. he really needs to be held to account on his garbage opinions.

See the footy flogs, erm I mean journo's farking stuff up again. Some fool did a trade article about Saad leaving Essendrugs for Carlscum. Called him Adam about half a dozen times.
Guessing the journo might have had his computer set to auto translate n the name Ahmet kept coming out as Adam.

But his name is Adam. Ahmed Saad is a different guy and played for the Saints.

I reckon part of the media bias against us is simply from us choosing not to feed them insider information like some other clubs do.

We’ve maintained a large number of core major players on and off the field over the past 10 years.

They’ve been burnt enough in the past to hold strong in this area. Look at Damien’s cry about Dusty before the Grand Final for a recent example.

Yeah, still *smile* me. Fiona over Pavlich, Tambling over Buddy. Flora was no star but played 140 games, Tambling 124.
I can make a list of dozens of top 10 picks that played little to no games but never get mentioned.

Forget about them had we got those selections right that would have changed the course of the Universe and we would not be experiencing the Dynasty we are today:cupgold:cupgold:cupgold

Agree. And I reckon one of the best I've read about RFC. Excellent article.
Best fact was our +30 centre clearances over the finals was best ever.
Where one of my few insights to tactics/ structure was demonstrated again....that Prestia is as critical to our success any.

Apologies in advance if previously mentioned here or elsewhere. ..

I was listening to a bit of that trade radio on Friday and Sam Edmund was on with that Brownlow thief Cooney.
Nathan Broad came up in conversation and Edmund alluded to Gold Coast losing interest due to his close friendship with Brando.... and it was like they were winking at eachother doing the ... 'ya know what I mean'?
Cooney said something along the line of .... so they play up a bit....? with a bit of a hmmmmm from Edmund..
Pretty *smile* sort of stuff IMO... then again they're playing by Hutchinson's rule book which means ya can make *smile* up and keep the clicks coming.

Ahmed was the guy that drank the wrong sports drink and was rubbed out for 2 years around the time that the Bummers were shooting up and trying to get off with a slap on the writs.

Despite what Essendon tell you about their suspension it was still 50% less than what Ahmed Saad got.
 
Geelong clear premiership favourites for 2021 according to Dwayne Russell. You cannot make this stuff up!!!

Biggest flaw, no ticker.
Yep. Younger Bro n I were texting *smile* at one another during the game. I had a crack about his mob for using a lot of elbows n knees just after Broady staggered off in need of a spell.
Got the response mid way through the second qtr that we couldn't handle their pressure. Needless to say that his Moggies folded late in that qtr, ably led into irrelevance by the mighty Dangerclench.
Just happened to mention after the match that after beating them in three finals matches from three attempts and coming from behind in the last two. That his mob were nothing but pretenders. Got not so politely told to Foff n haven't heard from him since :rotfl1. Geelol supporters are just like their team, plenty of strut n macho when they're skiing down hill. No ticker when the *smile* hits the fan n they go into snivel mode.
