darkhorse72 1,943 Posted June 28, 2018 Posted June 28, 2018 Nice little article on her success in a "men's" industry. https://www.whimn.com.au/strength/happiness/daisy-pearce/news-story/4fae3cfe90f04c7c08d849f2acfbd527 Big fan of Daisy so I thought I would share. I noticed in the article she is 30, while that may be anise for the men's AFL. I think the way women's is played over such a short period of time she'll be playing for a lot of years yet for us. She won't have the wear and tear AFL men have by 30. Quote
MT64 1,148 Posted June 28, 2018 Posted June 28, 2018 She leaves all the other special comment"nuff nuff's" for dead. She is so insightful and to the point on all teams just not the pro cats and hawk comments that some have. 1 Quote
Mazer Rackham 14,972 Posted June 28, 2018 Posted June 28, 2018 Daisy is a breath of fresh air. I get a kick out of seeing how she's leapt out of obscurity into the glamourous world of TV, radio, etc, and has handled it with aplomb. At the QB match it was great seeing her on the big stage rubbing shoulders with everyone and seemingly totally at ease with it all. As for the commentary ... she does this thing called "putting in the work" that most of the ex-player commentators don't do. They think that having played the game is enough. How did they get to the top of the playing world? Putting in the work. In the commentary world, the same thing applies. It doesn't just happen. But the standards of the trophy collecting TV stations are so low, they're happy just to have "Lingy" and his ilk hanging around, not to mention their encouragement of the stupid antics of the roaming f***wit. 1 Quote

And whats more it is clear she does her own research and prepares super well for her special comments role. Unlike almost all others. It amazes actually how clueless footy commentators seem to be eg about teams, players, stats etc etc 1 Quote
What 18,810 Posted June 28, 2018 Posted June 28, 2018 Puff pieces on Demons never work out well for us. Expect her to have a shocker on the boundary tonight, mumbling plenty of words and a possible wardrobe malfunction. 1 1 1 Quote
At Least I Saw a Flag 5,353 Posted June 28, 2018 Posted June 28, 2018 Hey, what's happened to Samantha Lane? Has Daisy more or less taken her place? Quote
Bring-Back-Powell 15,548 Posted June 28, 2018 Posted June 28, 2018 I think she's doing ok but she has a long way to go to reach the heights of Dixie Marshall. Quote

Dixie Marshall enjoyed her times with all the male attention, she speaks fondly of it. Quote
