WTF, why is Aaron apologising to MIFSUD if he hasn't done anything wrong, if this is just AFL spin on this all to be a misunderstanding and/or incorrect interpretations fook that. If Aaron has made no such comment don't apologise and if you didn't do not allow the AFL to report it as such. Lines in the sand

Aaron isn't apologising.

 

We'll get a plum draw in 2013 I'll bet as a result. Home games against the likes of Carlton and Essendon.

This was never about who said what to who, it was only ever about Misfud breaking a players confidence. The AFL have just tried to muddy the waters by bringing the other crap into it.

Striker IMO we have a fairly good draw this year.

The draw is not the problem It is the MFC playing poorly that is the problem

Just to clarify,"it was only ever about Mifsud breaking a player's confidence and misinterpreting what he had been told. How he misinterpreted it and what exactly he misintepreted we'll never know, and quite frankly, I don't want to know. Let's just get on with playing footy.


The interesting part about today is that the latest piece is from the AFL Media Department.

Now call me a cynic but would they put out anything that did not paint the AFL in the best light.

there was an interesting segment on Media Watch last on just this issue

If any posters are interested in where the AFL is heading with Sports journalism they should logon to the abc and watch last nights media watch

it is quite illuminating

NO


One question remains in my mind. is Grant Thomas an accredited AFL media person? If so, I would have thought his accreditation should be revoked immediately in light of his unprofessional publishing of that article. Garry Lyon should also have held him more to account as a co-panel member of Footy Classified.

I don't mind Thomo and I think his views are often refreshing and interesting, but if it were any other journo who did what he did, they'd be out of a job quicker than you can imagine...

Only a small point fitness

But please do not call him a Journalist.

At best he is a commentator, there is a significant difference

I've got to disagree od, he IS what passes as a journalist these days, just not always very professional

We should not have any inflated ideas of journalists either. One needs only to read what masquerades as newspapers these days

Cheers

  • POSTGAME: Hawthorn

    Wayward kicking for goal, dump kicks inside 50 and some baffling umpiring all contributed to the Dees not getting out to an an early lead that may have impacted the result. At the end of the day the Demons were just not good enough and let the Hawks run away with their first win against the Demons in 7 years.

  • NON-MFC: Round 09

    Round 9 kicks off out west with the Dockers hosting a Collingwood side resting several stars. Fremantle need to make a statement on their home deck after some disappointing form on the road, while the Magpies will be keen to maintain their Top 2 position. Friday night sees a must-win clash between two sides desperate to stay in touch with the eight. St Kilda have shown glimpses while Carlton are clinging to relevance after a flat start to the season. Saturday’s twilight game at Marvel pits the Bombers against a struggling Sydney outfit. Essendon can’t afford another close match against a lower-ranked side, while the Swans risk sliding down the ladder even further. Up in Darwin, the fourth-placed Suns will look to extend their stay in the top four. The Bulldogs have hit their stride with three big wins on the trot and will be very keen to consolidate on their momentum. The always fiery Showdown looms as pivotal for both clubs. Adelaide are eyeing a spot in the Top 4 with a win, while Port Adelaide’s season could slip away if they drop another game and fall further behind the pack. Sunday begins with a yawn fest between Richmond and West Coast. The Tigers need to bank the points to stay clear of the bottom two, while the Eagles are still chasing their first win of the year. The Giants face one of the league’s toughest road trips as they travel to GMHBA Stadium to face the Cats. With GWS at risk of a third straight loss, Geelong will be eager to consolidate their position inside the eight and start their climb up the ladder. The round wraps up with the top-of-the-table Lions heading to Ninja Stadium to take on the second-last Roos. The Lions should easily take care of the struggling Roos who might be powerless against the best in the comp. Who are you tipping and what are the best results for the Demons?
