Tim Rogers, Paul Kelly and Temper Trap owned the stage for AFL Grand Final entertainment

Entertainment article about the half time show at GF ... and they include a tweet from Dennis Cometti ... too bad it's the fake Dennis Cometti ...

Idiots

Oh wow that's amazing. As a journalist, i'd never quote someone's twitter account unless it was A) verified, or 2) I knew for an absolute fact it was their twitter account. What poor journalism.

Not to mention the fact that just like (shock horror) Mark Robinson's article, it's terribly poorly written.

This year has seen footy journalism drop to new lows. Consistently left scratching my head at some of the drivel they are coming up with. Can get more reasoned and informed views from regular Joe Blows on forums and blogs than these idiots who get paid to do it.

I'm shocked. [censored] poor journalistic standards from the Hun. Whats the world coming to? Next you'll be trying to tell me that Mark Robinson makes up half his stories.

The half he doesn't make up come from trawling club forums and then putting a 'gold pass' lock on them! Truly poor form!

HUN journos couldn't write a feature piece or do research if their lives depended on it. :ph34r:

Nothing will ever beat Fox Sports getting rolled by the Carowhine Wilson account.

On a semi-related note, Some Iranian newspaper picked up a story from a satirical news website in the US, saying that Ahmadinejad is more popular than Obama in the American South.

Some work experience kid given a fluff piece about the grand final entertainment?

I don't read the Hun but I don't recognise the author.

Hahah.

"The Trap." Ha, ha. Giving them a nickname will not legitimise what was just another 80s revivalist slop fest.

Nui te Koha is a music industry shill. He has never seen an act he didn't like. Can't jeopardise the free tickets by bagging a show. Reminds me of half the footy journos.

Its going to get worse for at least one night.

Tomorrow, on 360 ,Robbo will lower his gaze and his voice slightly,pretend to be modest and intone either that he wrote a piece in Sudays Hun about "the lap of the gods"(according to him the name of grand final day) or or that he has a piece appearing 'tomorrow" about something.

And no one will care.

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers braved the rain and headed down to Gosch's paddock to bring you their observations from the second day of Preseason training for the 1st to 4th Year players. DITCHA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I attended some of the training today. Richo spoke to me and said not to believe what is in the media, as we will good this year. Jefferson and Kentfield looked big and strong.  Petty was doing all the training. Adams looked like he was in rehab.  KE
