I am out tonight and can't watch all the media footy shows post round 1, however it would be good if anyone could summarise what the footy shows discuss about the Dees tonight. 

Footy Classified.

Lloyd questioned Hogan's attitude for the first 3 quarters, said he was excellent in the last. Big praise for Watts.  Lloyd said we will win around 50% of our games but just miss out on the 8. That was it basically.

No mention of Oliver? These shows are all just about Collingwood these days

No, may have been recorded before Rising Star announcement.

Good summation HB but I note most of the show has been spent talking Hawks and to Sam Mitchell. FCS the Hawks get all the coverage on free to air programs because they always play Friday, Saturday. We playing in the twilight zone get no coverage on Sunday and get something on Monday nights occasionally. Not much tonight though. I thought Oliver might have got something but no, let's talk a bit longer with Sam 'corker' Mitchell about their injury burden! 

By the way did anyone see Hodge dropping the knee onto Bartels today? Barts had to leave the field on the blood rule. Saw it once on the news but would love to see it again to judge the intent. No doubt MRP will look the other way anyway.

Bernie vince on game day & nate jones on sunday footy not enough for some people? More coverage than most weeks for us I would've thought. Now clarry gets the rising star there's bound to be more during the week too! Lol

Talking footy was actually quite good tonight.  Lots of discussion of the drug tests, of course.  They really rate Oliver and his Rising Star Nom.  Also talked up the overall quality of the top 5 draftees who all got games this week and all looked AFL-ready.  Wietering and Oliver were singled out from the bunch for their awesome games.  Watts got a big wrap as well for his game. Said he had set a new bar for himself and now he needs to play like that every week. They also rate the direction Melbourne has taken with their gameplan.
