The media's agenda

[Guest KingDingAling]

They have a blatant agenda towards us.

Its a joke.

Tanking, tanking, for Christ's sakes.

I cannot stand Healy, Roos and MS driving this campaign against us,

something nearly has to be done.

And don't get me started on Robbo!

[PaulRB 5,999]

possessive and don't watch shitty TV.

[Norm Smith's Curse 2,078]

yeah they smell blood alright.

[Neita3000 37]

What were they harping on about tonight?

I've completely given up on watching these tabloid shows. Not only do they provide nothing of interest but more often than not their opinions are completely baseless.

[Guest KingDingAling]

Tonight they 3 clowns (Roos, Healy and Mike) had Adrian Anderson on and they made

sure they brang up tanking, showed Brock, etc.

If it was up to the 3 stooges, they would've pushed their agenda all show.

I don't know what Melbourne done to Healy, but he is a snake in the grass,

he has a massive gripe towards the club.

[PaulRB 5,999]

Gerard always hit me as the kind of bloke who would do something awful to you, then find a way to make out it was your fault.

Same with him and MFC.

huh?

[daisycutter 28,664]

anyway.....what did anderson say?

[jumbo returns 6,537]

Due process.

As long as it takes.

On "Open Mike", Sheahan was probing Martin Pike about his time at Melbourne and whether it was the clubs fault that he left.

Pike rightfully acknowledged it was his drinking and partying problem but Sheahan was trying his best to put us in a bad light.

he then went to Fitzroy. Brisbane didn't take him in the 11 players they got when the roys folded supposedly because of concerns of off field issues

he then went to North who then traded him to Brisbane because of off field issues

and Sheahan singles out MFC. He knew the history. What a disingenuous weasel

[Guest KingDingAling]

Yeah I dont know what the go is with the media at the moment.

Blocked.

Your a deadset [censored] anyway.

I don't know what Melbourne done to Healy, but he is a snake in the grass,

he has a massive gripe towards the club.

All three of the clowns tried hard to put words into Anderson's mouth, but at least he had the smarts not to take the bait (unlike McLean). In closing the interview, Healy sarcastically said something about the tanking report coming out on Christmas day (implying that its release will be timed to minimise publicity).

I used to be paranoid about the whole media and Melbourne thing too but now I reckon they're just out to get us.

Sheahan barracks for Melbourne, maybe he's just a [censored] off supporter like l am. I'm not far from pushing MFC to the back of my mind, it's hard when you've loved a club all your life but they are just absolutely pathetic at the moment.

But unlike Sheahan you wouldn't put the boots into us at every opportunity. Also, even being frustrated you would not as Sheahan did, label the entire club " disgusting and pathetic". I have said before I will never forgive him for that comment and I wait for the moment we meet, when I can let him know my anger personally.

[Chook in Perth 2,012]

What the hell do you want them to say about us? Lie and be positive?

We ARE pathetic. How else can you describe it after the last 6 years?

It can be turned round with hard work and savvy recruiting, but you can't hide from the recent past.

I think he has absolutely zero allegiance to the Melbourne football club.

I agree with the rest of what you've said.

Mike Sheehan jumped the shark as a journo the night he accepted without question Maclean's statement that he left the Dees because we had tanked.Did not ask Brock about the more lucrative and longer contract being offered by Carlton or the irony of his destination given his professed distaste for tanking.

That was [censored] poor by MS. McLean has given three or four explanations for leaving and MS would have known of the earlier stuff but has chosen to ignore it (or he IS that dumb).

As for their efforts last night with Anderson, they were just pumping up their own tyres. They have a vested interest now in bringing us some hurt so it will make them look like major players.

Such major players that went to air four and a half hours after the Jurrah story broke and they still did not have it.

I've stopped watching OTC. The content is hardly interesting or inspiring because it's usually interviewee's that are easily manipulated by the hosts or, people who make them drool like little girls. On top of that, the pricks infuriate me with their attack on this club. So, it's much easier just to turn off and have a good nights sleep.

'Open Mike' will be the next to lose me as a viewer. Seriously I was thinking of Martin Pike head-butting Sheahan last night when he was quizzed about an incident in Brisbane.

Gerard Whately is a standout on Fox Footy and in my opinion surrounded by c-heads.

It's probably the only thing he'll have gotten right about the whole thing..lol

[jnrmac 19,272]

Caro came out last night and said "when are the AFL going to finish their inquiry into Melbourne tanking".

I guess she is saying that because it was McLean who raised it but seriously the inquiry needs to cover everything that has been done in the last decade from Carlton, Freo etc if it is to be relevant.

The media are pathetic yet again with this stuff. If you're gonna raise it then raise it all.
