Personally I’m sick of this horrible media driven sensational, “you won’t believe what happened next” click bait crap that’s passing as “journalism “. Not just when it’s targeted at Richmond (which has gone off the charts recently) but any club.

I remember that. If the umpire, on seeing the smirk, had paid a free against him for staging that would go a long way to stamping it out.
Good to see Worsfold give the media a slapping.
Asked if he was speaking with a sense of frustration, Worsfold said: “Of course there is.
“I’ve read some comments from people that are pretty well respected people in the footy industry – and they sound like six-year-old kids. Like, it’s a bit embarrassing to read what some people say."

Agree with so much above. The biggest issue for me with the AFL journos is not that I don’t enjoy a lot of there work , it’s that due to the constant reporting on the negatives of the football world they are actually hurting the game and turning people off our great game. We on PRE are a great example , our club has come out of the darkness and had great success in recent years and yet Instead of craving articles written about the Richmond football club , It appears more an more of Richmond and football lovers have had a gut ful of the media’s dribble and as Tim said there sensationalism.
Dont expect to agree with all of them, all of the time, however theres just so much click bait, ambulance chasing stuff.

Yep, and people get way to invested in it. Click bait is click bait, and there will be pile-ons. Complaining and responding to it just feeds the beast. As for calls for Gale to respond to this, he's way too smart for that.
I think Clarko was more on the money than Whoosha. Making a comment that more people cover the footy than do Federal politics, therefore feel they all have to say something to remain relevant. He also called us a great team.
I just unfollowed 7AFL on Facebook as well. I don’t need that *smile* anymore.
Thanks for posting that @sconies
What a powerful but sad story.
This now in from the AFL and St Kilda

7 closes its Sunday coverage with Best of the Best. Four or five Essendon highlights, 0 Tigers. Mozzie's set shot gets a go but not Bolton's snap.
And now among the News leads is Grimes as a diver.

He's so eager to please. Like a 12-year-old boy, but dumber.
Ch9 should be paying for it.
Did that a year ago. Monumental waste of space.
