So on the Front page of the Age this Morning & the Sports Section Rohan Connolly wrote a Huge Story on the Return of James Hird. All based on Nothing!! Had he spoken at all to Hird Nope not a word. Heard James on the Radio this morning. Lets just say he was [censored] off & rightlly so. Connolly should be ashamed of himself. I have worked in a news room years ago & in many places he would have been sacked. All Future credibility on Rohan Connolly articles should be taken with a grain of salt. His Sources are obviously not good. Front page of the Age-to be rebuked by 7.30 AM !! You are a pillow Connolly Hang your Head. The Age CEO's will be Furious!! Stay Tuned

    You're 100% right. It's absolutely disgraceful and more befitting a football internet fan site than a prestigious newspaper like the Melbourne Age. We should be running people like Connolly (Rohan not Chris) right out of town!

    Apparantly he was just writing on information he received from people at the club. Wanted to get the story out before the HUN ran with it.

    Just shows what lengths will be taken for an exclusive!

    Given they're sacking people left, right & centre, doubt The Age will be throwing much money our way any more.

    There are three reasons why people buy the Herald Sun.

    1. They like pretty pictures and can't read.

    2. They believe celebrity/sportsperson gossip constitutes "news".

    3. They like pretty pictures and can't read.

    Don't be mean, Shane Warne's life is a very important political issue.

    One apparent reason why people like to "read" the Age: -

    1/ Like to be wrongly informed of incorrect information, through irresponsible and thoughtless information and lack of research.

    2/ Don't like pretty pictures.

    'Wrongly informed of incorrect information'? :o

    Edit - obligitary paper wars jab: You must buy the Herald Sun!

    Admit it ! You people don't like to read The Age because;

    - Your breakfast table is too small

    - Your arms aren't long enough

    - Your computer stuffed eyes, corrected by spectacles, can't scan the reaches of that broad, broad sheet.

    - You can't connect the headline to the article, after 3 paragraphs, because all articles are in novel form.

    Don't give me crap about puzzles, piccies, connollies, and caros, and journos who run out of petrol on the page, metaphorically speaking.

    Edit answer: Buy and/or read both. ;) (Stir the pot occassionally)

    • POSTGAME: Carlton

      A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.

    • PREVIEW: Carlton

      Good evening, Demon fans and welcome back to the Demonland Podcast ... it’s time to discuss this week’s game against the Blues. Will the Demons celebrate Clayton Oliver’s 200th game with a victory? We have a number of callers waiting on line … Leopold Bloom: Carlton and Melbourne are both out of finals contention with six wins and eleven losses, and are undoubtedly the two most underwhelming and disappointing teams of 2025. Both had high expectations at the start of participating and advancing deep into the finals, but instead, they have consistently underperformed and disappointed themselves and their supporters throughout the year. However, I am inclined to give the Demons the benefit of the doubt, as they have made some progress in addressing their issues after a disastrous start. In contrast, the Blues are struggling across the board and do not appear to be making any notable improvements. They are regressing, and a significant loss is looming on Saturday night. Max Gawn in the ruck will be huge and the Demon midfield have a point to prove after lowering their colours in so many close calls.
