I don't understand why supporters take the slightest notice of what reporters say or why their opinion matters??

I quite like Hutchy I think he is funny and has some quirky left field ideas

Barrett is like what Hutchy used to be......You know...trolling peoples garbage bins to find a "Story"....Staying up at night outside somebody's house hoping for a bit of dirt that he can break as world breaking news

I just ignore him...

Agree. Who cares what they say or think? Listen to their commentary and form your own opinion. People get really worked up on here if someone says something negative about us (deserved most of the time) but then themselves post vile stuff in during or directly after a loss.

Barrett doesn't have a vendetta against us, he just knows we as a club have been poorly run for years (anyone disagree?) and gets stuck in about it. He's blatantly wrong on the Viney situation and that's been proven.

I'm really confused as to why people lose their mind over opinions of people in the media. Everyone has a right to one.

Anyone else catch Barrett on the footy show talking with Viney tonight?

Talking to him like he was in his corner the whole time.

Jack spoke well though

Looked like they jumped him in the stairwell.

Would prefer if Sam Newman was going to wear a dees jumper on TFS that it had AHG on it, rather than the webjet logo like the one he's currently wearing. Useless.

I suppose he had to get an interview for the footy show but I dont think Jack would care what Damo's thoughts were. I wonder wear sam did get that jumper from.

Yes I picked that up immediately. MFC or maybe even Gary should have been onto that before the show?

If he's in the media you would hope that at least his opinion is an informed one. In this case it wasn't and in the Tyson (I've never seen him play) case it wasn't either.

Lefty Trolls?? would say way more right than left especially Barrett, he has private schoolboy, Daddy bought him everything, written all over him.

Someone on here referred to him as "the young lib" which is such an apt description.

just seen that barret mug on the FS what a sniveling little drop of seagull poop , grrr my tv lives , I hate few people in this world and guess what

Barrett still does not get it.

Viney braced to protect himself from injury in an inevitable collision.

His only alternative was to leave himself open to serious injury.

The issues around the bump are pretty clear. If you choose to bump and hit the player in the head you are going to be in trouble.

Schimma, Moose and Plod should be sacked for not understanding the difference between a defensive brace and a bump.

That's true. And no issue with people calling him on it and debating it.

But people get so worked up and obsessive over it when that's exactly what he is likely aiming to do.

Doesn't mean he's wrong all the time either like many think in here. See Hogan, twice.

He doesn't bother me as I don't care what he thinks. His 'opinion' pieces are often incorrect and loaded. But he does break news whether we like him or not.

It's simple, people don't like frothing at the mouth, [censored] reporters, that start off reporting, then get an inflated ego like a poor man's celebrity chef.
They start getting on the radio and the TV and see this as a vehicle to voice their opinions rather than do what got them their job in the first place, reporting facts.

Now that's fine, everyone is entitled to an opinion. But when you drop sticking to factual reporting, and start voicing your thoughts on everything that's going on, your personality comes through. No one likes over opinionated [censored] that they've known for years, let alone some geeky gutter journo grub that tries to talk [censored] about something we all know about more than he does.

Damian Barrett is anti-Melbourne, it irks us not because he is right or wrong, but because he has no [censored] idea what he's talking about.
I've had real life arguments about the Tyson/Salem trade with someone who got their cannon fodder from watching Damo spew [censored] about it in some medium.
Then we have to watch the [censored] interview one of players when something happens, he's like a virus you just can't avoid.


Reckon the AFL would publish this if I sent it to them?

I have so much hate built up inside of me towards Barrett, it's not healthy.

I still tweet abuse to him even tho I know he blocked me over a year ago, it makes me feel better.

You sure he wasn't in the country party???

He was right about supporters frothing at the mouth. we were ! But for a very good reason Which has now been rectified.

Barrett hasn't come out to say what a dumb carnt Schimma is for [censored] up .

And how fkn Kieth Grieg got wing in the Hun team of the century over the Tulip is beyond me.

Journos are mostly stupid drunks with drug and emotional issues- I can say that because I have many hack mates .

Norf and Parrot are bottom feeders.

See Matt, I find this totally acceptable. I'm sick of hearing whinging "celebrities" sooking about trolls. Now personally, i don't believe I am what woudl be classed as a "troll", but when they put idiotic comments up on social networking sites, they are voicing their opinion, just as much as you are in your abuse to Fl og Barrett.

Now, the sook has blocked you, no doubt becasue he didn't like what he was reading. Ironic considering that's the very reason you feel the need to reply in the first place!

They get in the spotlight, they don't care who they bring down as long as they come out on top, then cry when someone puts them down. Just have to watch the Brownlow Red Carpet even from a couple of years ago when Charlotte Dawson, Alex Perry and a couple of othershosted it - they were being nothing but disrespectful, bullying kunts toward some of the WAGs. Then the media want us to feel sorry when one of them gets a bit in return? Not from me.

I found some of the replies to Fl og's tweet the other night quite hilarious. Would love to know which one yours was! There are some bloody witty and funny people out there!

@barrettdamian nothing against the case or whatever but are we not allowed to protect ourselves anymore? Imagine if he didn't brace...

Tommy Sparrow was here last week in civvies and wearing sunnies. He didn’t train. Today he’s training but he’s wearing goggles so he’s likely got an eye injury. There’s a drill where Selwyn literally lies on top of Tracc, a trainer dribbles the ball towards them and Tracc has to g

    THAT WAS THE YEAR THAT WAS: 2024

    Whichever way you look at it, the Melbourne Football Club’s 2024 season can only be characterized as the year of its fall from grace. Whispering Jack looks back at the season from hell that was. After its 2021 benchmark premiership triumph, the men’s team still managed top four finishes in the next two seasons but straight sets finals losses consigned them to sixth place in both years. The big fall came in 2024 with a collapse into the bottom six and a 14th placing. At Casey, the 2022 VFL p
