What do the footy media go with?




Our backline are cheats! Collingwood where robbed!

 

[YinnarTiger]

I’m not usually one to be a ‘world is against us’ type but on footy classified they just droned on about Collingwood injuries and how Richmond cheats in aerial contests.

Did you mean talking footy? Footy Classified not on yet.

 

[percyms]

Seriously had a gutful of these so called unbiased media hacks hammering into everything ther Tigers do. They take delite in pointing out a few things we do and call it cheating or diving. Then they sit back and wait to see if their spiteful sniping can cost us a game or if umps will find a new way to screw us over. Just sick to death of it....

 

[percyms]

AND whats more - they have been carping on all year how fundamentally unfair it would be if we get Lynch but bet your house on the fact if he goes to Collingwood it will totally different strory on what a great piece of recruiting by them when they also got De Goey over the line..... Its pretty much McGuires media pussy boys club..

 

[The Lurker]

Yes only have to watch Fox when that Collingwood scumbag is on and all the others suck up to him,. he must run the place, only one who occasioinally has a crack at him is Dermie. Makes me sick.

2017 was for the club and fans.

2018 is to stick it up the competition/media/opposition supporters

Great so we can expects the umpires to look at our aerial contests extra hard to penalize every minor breach. How can non Collingwood supporters not see how much Cox hangs on to his opponent?

I love all the 'if you have 100k members, why aren't you getting 100k to every game' calls :hihi

And dives at every opportunity.

No stadium in the land that can fit us all in due to MCC members area

That must mean Collingwood should get 80000 to every game, every Crows game should be a sellout. Every Hawthorn game should be a sellout.

How dumb are some people?

I had a neutral supporter say that to me at the Crows game, I responded with if North played the Dees or Dogs etc here tonight they would be lucky to have 40k between 2 Melbourne sides , we had over 53k v an interstate side on a cold Friday night

 

[Baloo]

The prelim against GWS is all that's needed to remind people of how big the army is. That night we had more supporters than members at the game.

If everyone that was there is now a member, add in us poor bastards interstate or overseas, and there is your 100k

 

[The Lurker]

And the AFL tried to drown us out at every opportunity by blasting us with the Giant theme tune.

 

[leon]

The AFL are so stupid they have alienated the club with the greatest membership of their very own code. Is stupidity a criteria for the top job?

same with GWS, 25,000 members
get about around 8,000 per home game (which would include free ticket giveaways)

Ha, when I went up there 2 weeks ago I used free tickets!

Predictions on how the media are gonna spin Richmond's dominance in the coming weeks?

Here is my prediction: We're gonna see headlines something to the affect of "all of the pressure is on Richmond. They wouldn't wanna choke, etc."

 

[tigersnake]

Absolute exemplary example of media double standards on AAA. Irrefuteable.

Exhibit A: Collingwood cruelled by injuries, Listed the injuries in red. As has been discussed, apart from Treloar, and Reid, the rest are crocs or good ordinary players and not even that many in terms of raw numbers, no mention of their fit A graders.

Exhibit B: "Lucky" Richmond. List our A graders and how many games they have, (ie havn't), missed. No mention or graphics of our injuries, brief mention of Prestia in passing. We don't have that many less in raw numbers, and I'd argue ours are better players across the board.

Fair dinkum.
