saying nothing to Hutchy who works at the paper who actually DID it)

While it was the Sun, I didn't think it was Hutchy who nabbed the interview.

Not saying it was Hutchy who "got" the inteview, but why would Archer criticize Caro, saying she would do the same thing, when Hutchy sat next to him and worked for the offending journo's paper and is clearly closer to the source.

No. You said "Hutchy who works at the paper who actually DID it" - see above.

Haha clearly you can see i was saying the paper that did it, as he works for the paper that actually did it, as opposed to Caro who works for The Age

Correct. Once you cleared it up on the 26th of August (ref to post); but on the 25th of Aug your post referred to Hutchy not the paper - who nabbed the interview. The End.

Wrong

Incorrect. Your grammar was NOT that clear, hence Rogue replying to you. Post#76 may help you.

Boring. My grammer was not great, but if you cannot think laterally enough to figure out what I meant, then I pity you.

Caro is not that good although on Footy Classified she has got two things right involving the Ds

1. Ben Holland is just an old hack wanting his last payday re his dispute with Richmond and;

2. The Ds leadeship group after Davey's suspension being a joke.

She has worn some interesting outfits on the show, once she wore an art smock and once she work something that Colin Sylvia would wear.

Yet again Caro stands up for what she believes in, delivering a fair and balanced report.

No doubt those who dislike her will enjoy the article, then find out she wrote it and think "well that's a once off," but i say thanks Caro.

When our club is unable to stand up for itself, we need gutsy journos to help us out.

Thank you

On the money as usual 45hotgod.

i can guarantee you everyone will love caro now cos she is supporting us.......see that's the thing with chauvinists a woman is only good when she agrees with you....

Any one is only good as long as they are agreeing with me.

I think the poster has been supportive of Caro Wilson for some time. No need for the unnnecessary feckless comments on chauvinism.

I've gotta say that I've changed my mind about Caro.

I used to think that she was nothing more than gutter journalist who wrote far too many articles about the only team she knew anything about ie Richmond.

Lately she has shown real interest in Melbourne and her article this morning ( "Demons Duped" ) was absolutely spot on.

She has really tried to support us lately - and I reckon its about time all us Caro knockers gave her a break.

It must have been tough for a female to get to the of the tree as a football journalist.She's done well

It's quite possible that this article was to some extent an aopolgy for her last Demon-related article, which was poorly written and researched and also tagged us with an $5m 'post-demolition' debt, instead of the $2m that it actually was.

She has made a point of including an direct statement that it is a $2m position now, which looks a lot like a correction to me.

Hmm.. I'm thinking about the 'we deserve it' style comments we've heard from the club.

Is it possible they are banking on an on-field resurgence in the next couple of years?

Could be an interesting ploy - by reinforcing the notion that the poor fixture is because of bad performances it means that the AFL will have a harder time making excuses to not give us a decent fixture when we're back in the finals mix.

We have to pin them down somehow - is anyone here prepared to assume that if we start to get results on field the AFL will just automatically give us a decent fixture? No? Didn't think so.

Good point in the article, but I hate Caro's style of writing. Incoherent.

She's one of the few intelligent football writers and because of this she attracts the ire of her less intelligent male peers. Hutchinson being an absolute prime example. He knows she holds more kudos as a journalist because whilst he's sniffing around the gutters of "celebrity footballers" she's writing articles that provoke thought and interest in the football world.

She knows so much about footy and reports very well too. Love her on Footy Classified and she is much better ( by far) than Craig Hutchinson ( Mr. Moody!!), and Sam Newman ( Mr Has been!!)

How rare to see a journalist get it right for once.

Caro. You've earned brownie points here, and for more reasons than the fact you've come to the defence of MFC.

Well done.

Yep. All aboard the Caro Bandwagon, faithfully led by 45hotgod and yours truly.

Good stuff by Caro but check out also Stephen Reilly in the Australian on Saturday - made similar points and an even more thorough article - someone else pls provide the link I am technologically challenged.

I also agree with Caro and Reilly.

The AFL rightly wants the MFC to lift our game, particularly off the field, but their bloody mindedness only hinders and limits the good work already done to this point in time.

However, what worries me more is that the Club has been very quiet of late, in terms of its communications with members.

No major sponsor so far, games scheduled for next year, which we know by bitter experience, do not draw good crowds on Sundays and a seeming acceptance that we deserve a good kick in the teeth.....again.

How's the business plan going guys and when we will we hear more about it?

It would be nice to hear something positive from the MFC before Christmas, beside the draft.

I wait with bated breath.

Cheers

...because the MFC and the MCC will soon become intertwined once again.

What would she mean by this statement? We know that Jimmy is chatting with the MCC about becoming one again, but this sounds as if its a formality!!!

I think you mean male chauvinists...

Not so fast my dear Watson. Newman has signed on again for a reportedly $3 million...hardly a Mr Has Been.
