Mate, he is on a show, nightly where he discusses topics and gives his opinion. Better than the opposite of the average apathetic person afraid to give an opinion. Its easier to agree with the masses.

I don't agree with all of his thoughts but he has the guts to put them out there

    I agree , he has the right to say whatever he wishes . I'd never advocate anybody being stopped from expressing themselves.

    And none of it true.

    I was just about to edit my post to say 'also, all a bit of a storm in a teacup really'.

    It appears he attended some kind of briefing, as a media figure with one of the major television networks, among a variety of others. That's all rather different to a one-on-one chat about the aesthetics of the game.

    Herald Sun keeping its standards where they are. I'm irritated that I got sucked in.

    And I'm also a bit irritated that this thread has become a Waleed good vs Waleed evil tossaround. The only issue here (that appears to not be an issue) is that the AFL had apparently (in Herald Sun report level of verifaction, which probably means an intern visited a facebook group) sought out a celebrity to get strategic advice on  the state of the game after decades of smugly ignoring the earnest and good advice being shouted at them from every bloody direction.

    The whole rule change debacle is a complete circus. Gill and Steve trying to make their mark on the game. People's panel consulting is just an attempt to find ex-ante support for unnecessary changes.

    The last 8-10 weeks of footy has been great. They should keep their grubby mits off our game!

    Why? Because the umps have thrown the ball up quicker, and been (a bit) better making decisions (including winding back interpretation of stupid recent rule changes)

    How successful have recent changes been?

      - Ruck nominations - confusing debacle

      - 10m protected area 50m penalties - blight on the game (umps now directed to largely ignore)

      - pay head high free kicks at any chance - duckers and floppers like Selwood, Puopolo and a host of others leading with head to be rewarded cheap frees

      - Deliberate OOB or not trying hard enough to keep in or whatever the rule is - who the hell knows what's going on here?

       - Deliberate rushed behind - idiotic response to one games tactics 

    There's probably more...

    As someone else posted - Solutions looking for problems!

    Are people's issues here with a TV personality being approached or just this particular TV personality being approached?

    • REPORT: Western Bulldogs

      The next coach of the Melbourne Football Club faces the challenge of teaching his players how to win games against all comers. At times during this tumultuous season, that task has seemed daunting, made more so in light of the surprise news last week of the sacking of premiership coach Simon Goodwin. However, there were also some positive signs from yesterday’s match against the Western Bulldogs that the challenge may not be as difficult as one might think. The two sides presented a genuine football spectacle, featuring pulsating competitive play with eight lead changes throughout the afternoon, in a display befitting a finals match.The result could have gone either way and in the end, it came down to which team could produce the most desperate of acts to provide a winning result. It was the Bulldogs who had their season on the line that won out by a six point margin that fitted the game and the effort of both sides.

    • CASEY: Brisbane

      The rain had been falling heavily in south east Queensland when the match began at Springfield, west of Brisbane. The teams exchanged early goals and then the Casey Demons proceeded like a house on fire in the penultimate game of the VFL season against a strong opponent in the Brisbane Lions. Sparked by strong play around the ground by seasoned players in Charlie Spargo and Jack Billings, a strong effort from Bailey Laurie and promising work from youngsters in Kynan Brown and  Koltyn Tholstrup, the Demons with multiple goal kickers firing, raced to a 27 point lead late in the opening stanza. A highlight was a wonderful goal from Laurie who brilliantly sidestepped two opponents and kicked beautifully from 45 metres out.

    • POSTGAME: Western Bulldogs

      The Demons lacked some polish but showed a lot of heart and took it right up to the Bulldogs in an attempt to spoil their finals hopes ultimately going down by a goal at the MCG.
