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

This needs to be put to bed now.

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...

I reckon we realised at half time when the free kick count was 1 - 21 just how far Vlad's testicles tentacles can spread.

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

It's in the MFC's best interests that this dies now, I suggest we cease giving it oxygen so it can do just that.
