Ive worked out how you manage all of this Barney ;)

Interesting that Hawthorn have also played St Kilda and Essendon the last 2 weeks, and we’ve actually won both games by more than Hawthorn.

And yet the media were raving about both of the Hawks wins, particularly the St KIlda win.

Anyone bother listening to FM? Almost every station has moronic comedians every morning laughing at their own jokes and frankly make up childish non funny stuff.  I guess many have a short attention span. If you want decent radio with trained broadcasters, tune into UK radio.

I tune into JJJ

Whateley doesn't come across as a cocaine snorting alcoholic hedonist like others in the football media so I will give him the benefit of the doubt.

I havent read the whole thread so apologies if Im re stating things here. Gerard was very pro us in the tanking saga I thought ( one of the very few) so he gets a big,  long lasting tick from me. He was also one of the few who was trying to call the drug saga for what it was. Im a fan...I dont care what he or anyone  thinks of us this season. I just want to be playing finals ...the rest will take care of itself!

Whateley had an opinion, then changes it as the results come though, what’s the issue with that?  We’d have a much better country if our politicians were able to adapt to changes rather then stubbornly holding to their outdated views.

Whateley isn't the moron here.

Demonland is a large island in Eric Rücker Eddison's fantasy world, described in The Worm Ouroboros. The people who live in Demonland are referred to as demons, though they appear as humans with small horns adorned on their heads.Wikipedia

Mods,

Why is a plural for young Cats banned as a censored word when cant's is allowed

What is it  that worries you what Whately says. He has his opinions that's fine. Lets change his opinion by us winning the games we should win like the one coming up. Gold Coast.

Whateley's mum is a Demons fan

Incorrect.  She was on 360 last night, and I'm sure she didn't say she barracked for Melbourne.  She listed 3 teams she barracked for, but none were Melbourne.

Correct. She said Geelong for Gerard, North for his sister and Hawks for herself.

Who cares what the Whateley's  think we will make the grand final no matter what they think?

Well, that’s probably down to opinion.

The way I see it is that he confident, assured and articulate.  Some may see that as arrogance, and that’s fair enough.

The egocentric commentators seek to sensationalise, exaggerate, crack in jokes, make up nicknames, laugh hysterically at their own jokes and treat the viewers/listeners like they’re fools.

Basically Brian Taylor and all his ‘mates’.

Taylor is the worst. Because of Ch7 doing the fixture he only has to know the names of Carlton,C;wood, Essendon,  RIchmond and he could get by. However he cannot even do that. Last night Ch 7 "Commentators" carried on their own ïn house discussion"and forgot to even call the footy. Turn the sound off and it was marvellous.

The biggest problem with Footy currently is the wall to wall commentary/analysis with an entire cohort of people trying to get their minute of media time and fame. As a result the Sport itself (grass roots) gets no coverage because it is swamped by AFL

Gerard is okay, i like BT and people are allowed to be down on us after the shocker against Hawks and the poor last qtr vs the Tigers. We've only beat 3 of whats probably going to be the bottom 6 sides in the comp. We ain't beating the best in the comp, so let's not get ahead of ourselves and start calling media people out for not kissing our toes.

 

ALSO we did have the most to lose (= with Essendon) we are on the repair after two poor games and losing to gold coast would be a disaster when you consider our easy draw for the next month and the difficult draw that lays ahead.

Really? I corrected a wrong post.

And I will do it again with yours. No, I did not waste my time watching 360. I enjoy it. My decision, not yours.

Out of curiosity, what are you watching in that time slot? As summer bay and Ramsay st have closed, I have no idea what you watch after that.

most times oI'm on the internet chazz.

When I stay in Melbourne, I stay at a friends place & he watches foxtel, so I have to see these programs. I am absolutely baffled that anyone watches Whately and Robinson yodel on.

When he goes to bed I turn them off, and watch anything else, even CH-2 news.   Recordings of games, or motorsport. anything other than those two.

Very disappointed with 'the couch', as well. wankfest.

Not sure you could call him a moron. Save that for the likes of Tony Shaw, Robbo, BT, Derwayne, Bill Brownless, etc.

What I've never liked about him is he calls football like a horse race. Also uses 'in terms of' in far too many sentences. That means you've mangled your sentence structure.

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force on a scorching morning out at Gosch's Paddock for the final session before the whole squad reunites for the Preseason Training Camp.

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea
