Damian Barrett's anti MFC spin doctoring

[ManDee 7,126]

Relax, his problem in this case isn;t with MFC, it is with Roos personally.

Roos dared to criticise the umpiring/officialdom. Barrett has a long record of delivering wet-lettuce counterpunches on behalf of the hand that feeds him.

It is plainly a personal attack, the final comment does sum it all up "The gun for hire can't lose from here", declaring not only that Roos is a mercenary but that he is also being given undue high status.

Such a beta-male stereotype.

A cockroach on his good days Barrett dreams of being a beta-male. He is not even human, he certainly doesn't exhibit the normal traits of one.

Damien Barrett is a disposable commodity in the big picture.

WYL, I'd argue not. Commodities have a value.

hahaha! Yes.

Murdoch would have a price for Barrett.

He writes what he is told.

Today on AFL.com (in-between hyping up Frawley going to Hawthorn) he made the startling comment that if his gut feel is right Shaun Atley is about to be 'elite'.

This Shaun Atley?

Those are seriously average numbers. If by elite you mean scraping into the top 400 players in the league them maybe. I don't imagine Ablett, Watson and Pendlebury are nervous.

North are still the most schizophrenic team in the league, but he doesn't wanna talk about that.

He is a very bias North supporter, i rate Atley as a very good B grader, he may become an A grader but a long way from elite

I was just listening to Triple M where they were discussing the greatest players in each club - after what Carlton is doing as a part of their sesquicentenary.

Someone raised up Melbourne and Barrett had to say "There are only probably 5 for Melbourne compared to 25 at Hawthorn" (this is coming from the same man who said Hodge would be in their top 10).

Lucky Lyon piped in and named some of the greats including many pre-1964.

What an insufferable little man. He is the type of person people emigrate to avoid.

I got this from another site. Apparently, Barrett and his former workmate Mark Robinson don't get on and there's been some aggro between them.

So when Robbo became chief football writer of the HUN, Barrett piped up that, "replacing Mike Sheehan with Robbo is like replacing Sinatra with a Karaoke singer".

Strangely enough for the one and only time I think he is right. Robbo is a complete lightweight, and a [censored] when it comes to Essedon. As biased in his own way about the Dons as Barrett is about north MELBOURNE. Neither of them could hold a candle to Sheahan who had enough integrity as chief football writer of the HS to keep his passion for the MFC to himself while he was doing that job. He now, to our great pleasure, feels under no such constraints.

He's clearly just aiming to bait MFC supporters, and precious little else.

Don't give the human stain any oxygen.

Actually, I've often referred to Barrett as an oxygen thief !
