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.

    WARNING by William from Waalitj

    As a long term resident of Waalitj Marawar, I am moved to warn my fellow Narrm fans that a  danger game awaits. The locals are no longer the easybeats who stumbled, fumbled and bumbled their way to the good fortune of gathering the number one draft pick and a generational player in Harley Reid last year. They are definitely better than they were then.   Young Harley has already proven his worth with some stellar performances for a first year kid playing among men. He’s taken hangers, k

    OVER YET? by KC from Casey

    The Friday evening rush hour clash of two of the VFL’s 2024 minnows, Carlton and the Casey Demons was excruciatingly painful to watch, even if it was for the most part a close encounter. I suppose that since the game had to produce a result (a tie would have done the game some justice), the four points that went to Casey with the win, were fully justified because they went to the best team. In that respect, my opinion is based on the fact that the Blues were a lopsided combination that had

    CENTIMETRES by Whispering Jack

    Our game is one where the result is often decided by centimetres; the touch of a fingernail, a split-second decision made by a player or official, the angle of vision or the random movement of an oblong ball in flight or in its bounce and trajectory. There is one habit that Melbourne seems to have developed of late in its games against Carlton which is that the Demons keep finding themselves on the wrong end of the stick in terms of the fine line in close games at times when centimetres mak

    POSTGAME: Rd 09 vs Carlton

    The Demons were blown out of the water in the first quarter and clawed their way back into the contest but it was a case of too little too late as they lost another close one to Carlton losing by 1 point at the MCG.

    MELBOURNE BUSINESS by The Oracle

    In days of old, this week’s Thursday night AFL match up between the Demons and the Blues would be framed on the basis of the need to redress the fact that Carlton “stole” last year’s semi final away from Melbourne and with it, their hopes for the premiership.  A hot gospelling coach might point out to his charges that they were the better team on the night in all facets and that poor kicking for goal and a couple of lapses at the death cost them what was rightfully theirs. Moreover, now was
