He will. Nothing surer. The Vic bias had the opportunity to play in a GF out of Melbourne in 2020 and 2021, and none of their teams could even make the game!

Both Port & Brisbane had the biggest bias in 2020 and they both fjed it up.
Losing on the G, Ita something all interstate sides need to get use to or *smile* off back into there state leagues.

Couldn't possibly go there on this one. Collingwood finished the home & away season on top of the ladder.

It's a simple fix really, if interstate clubs want to play the Grand Final on there home ground then all they need to do is relocate to Melbourne. Simples!!

I don't get the angst from the interstate clubs regarding the location of the GF.

The GF was always played at the G before they entered the competition. They requested a license to enter the AFL and were subsequently given it knowing that the GF will always be played at the G. Are they so special that they expect the rules to be changed now that they play with the big dogs in the AFL?

All I’ve seen from the media is negativity, Ginivan at the track on GF eve , Maynard celebrating when he shouldn’t be playing , the Neale free, Murphy decision, anything they can turn to a negative or with a click bait headline they do , in their defence they are not that great of football analysers

So Joshy Jenkins that superstar from Area 51 has tipped us to finish last next year.

Obviously still got sour grapes from a certain day in 2017.
By all Reports he was playing that day.
Well, he was on the ground!

Actually he was in the privileged position of watching the Cup go past him as he observed proceedings.
Good to see he got over it.
Not!

Surprised it took this long for Jenkins comments about us to make onto PRE.

Agree or not, Jenkins clearly sees us as a team in decline and he won’t be the last in the media voice that opinion either.

Most 2024 predictions have us in the bottom 6.
The last month under Quack Quack didn't help.
We played soulless 2006 style football.
The worse I've seen in a very long time.
I don't blame them for predicting us to be that shiit but the Hate Squad was very quick to stamp our demise.

The same Josh Jenkins that tipped WC to make the finals in 2023, great footy brain in that one.

So. When can I start lining up for finals tickets next year?
 
Just shows - you really don't need to have much going for you as an ex-player if you want a gig in the media. Ex-player is about the start and end of the CV.

There is so much intrinsically wrong with the media covering the AFL - both from ex-players and the actual journos.

Bluey it's all about the interview process at these places. I was lucky enough to get the transcript from the last job interview.
'Hi how are you?"
'I hate Richmond'
'Your Hired'
Name 1 bloke on Sen or MMM who suppprts Richmond?

Nathan Brown's about the only one I can think of, though I don't listen often enough to decipher whether or not he's still big on them.

Richo once Said that he can't criticise the umpires during a Richmond game because he will be left unemployed.
So now he had gone to far to the right and dosent nothing..
