Is reaching new heights with his man love commentary. After 5 games Majak is now a superstar, yes superstar!

Healy's drooling on radio an television about Nik Nat and Majak is fast becoming farcical.

Don't get me wrong, both these footballers are good to watch when they play well, but FFS, Healy is sounding like a besotted teenage girl rather than a serious educated commentator.

Lift your game Gerard..it's all rather silly!

Yeh, I'm the same. This may as well be a thread about why radios have dials and TV's remotes. Frankly it's pretty hard to listen to any station (tv or radio) without coming across some opinionated or fawning idiot.

Healy is the worst at reverse racism. He has always had a thing for black players. He makes out like, "Oh, look at them, little black fella playing good footy, good on him!"

It's part of why I don't bother listening to him. He represents a consistent stream of wealthy bogans that dominate the AFL media sphere.

Reverse Racism? I take it your not black. I hear this phrase quite a bit lately and it is the biggest crock of a phrase.

Try walking a mile in their shoes and think about it before coming out with that talk.

Why? Surely Majak Daw should be celebrated for his culture and not because of his culture. I do believe you can be over emphatic about someones race and have it draw against their feats.

Not many people talking about how good Tom Lynch is for a slow white bloke or a red head are there! They are talking up his ability and 10 goal haul.

That talk? So your saying we should walk a mile in their shoes because "being black" obviously they have had a harder life than everyone else? Now who's making silly comments?

That's either brilliant satire or utter drivel. I can't quite tell which it is, but I hope it's the former.

Twist it whichever way you choose, it does not change the fact that the phrase is a crock!

I love Gerard! Authoritative and caring voice in the media. I dont mind if he is trying to sell the new star talents. Remember he isn't just commentating for the adult audience. When I was a kid listening to the footy the great characters felt larger than life. A good commentator lets the naive joy flow as well as the considered criticism.

    FROZEN by Whispering Jack

    Who would have thought?    Collingwood had a depleted side with several star players out injured, Max Gawn was in stellar form, Christian Petracca at the top of his game and Simon Goodwin was about to pull off a masterstroke in setting Alex Neal-Bullen onto him to do a fantastic job in subduing the Magpies' best player. Goody had his charges primed to respond robustly to the challenge of turning around their disappointing performance against Fremantle in Alice Springs. And if not that, t

    TURNAROUND by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons won their first game at home this year in the traditional King’s Birthday Weekend clash with Collingwood VFL on Sunday in a dramatic turnaround on recent form that breathed new life into the beleaguered club’s season. The Demons led from the start to record a 52-point victory. It was their highest score and biggest winning margin by far for the 2024 season. Under cloudy but calm conditions for Casey Fields, the home side, wearing the old Springvale guernsey as a mark of res

    POSTGAME: Rd 13 vs Collingwood

    Once again inaccuracy and inefficiency going inside 50 rears it's ugly head as the Demons suffered their second loss on the trot and their fourth loss in five games as they go down to the Pies by 38 points on Kings Birthday at the MCG.

    GAMEDAY: Rd 13 vs Collingwood

    It's Game Day and the Demons are once again faced with a classic 8 point game against a traditional rival on King's Birthday at the MCG. A famous victory will see them reclaim a place in the Top 8 whereas a loss will be another blow for their finals credentials.

    BOILED LOLLIES by The Oracle

    In the space of a month Melbourne has gone from chocolates to boiled lollies in terms of its standing as a candidate for the AFL premiership.  The club faces its moment of truth against a badly bruised up Collingwood at the MCG. A win will give it some respite but even then, it won’t be regarded particularly well being against an opponent carrying the burden of an injured playing list. A loss would be a disaster. The Demons have gone from a six/two win/loss ratio and a strong percentag

    CLEAN HANDS by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons headed into town and up Sydney Road to take on the lowly Coburg Lions who have been perennial VFL easy beats and sitting on one win for the season. Last year, Casey beat them in a practice match when resting their AFL listed players. That’s how bad they were. Nobody respected them on Saturday and clearly not the Demons who came to the game with 22 players (ten MFC), but whether they came out to play is another matter because for the most part, their intensity was lacking an
