Classic Ross with the attempt to shift the media narrative away from the club's poor performance overseen by him to something else.

That could apply to just about every game this year.

I agree completely. Do some forget/were not old enough to remember the Knights/Judge/Schwab coaching era of the 90s and early 00?

Good role players are critical to a team's success. However, Osbourne and Sewell (a great player in his prime) were rookie draft picks whilst Guerra was picked up as a recently delisted mediocre small forward. In contrast, Ward is a blue chip top 10 pick. We really need players selected within...

Centre square work is deplorable.

Concerning once the heat was back on in the contest Geelong have easily exerted their superiority as they did in the first.

Regardless of whether he first touched it within the field of play it looked like he spilled the mark before coming to ground.

Who came up with the idea of t-shirts and suit jackets? I know casual wear is much more acceptable these days but it just appears lazy on a broadcast. It looks like they've turned up late, thrown a jacket on to give a hint of professionalism and switched the camera on. Given the quality of...

I'm not going to say Reeves was an amazing administrator but if you are going to tie this to a lack of football knowledge, which I presume is specific to team performance, then how do reconcile this with Clarkson's significant role in the sub par standard of the list/performance at the time of...

From an article on a Hawthorn Collingwood game back in 2017 in which Mitchell had 50 possessions: Impressive numbers, but Buckley said at no stage did he feel things were getting out of hand. “He just finds a way and keeps getting to the pill, (but) if I said he wasn’t hurting us a lot, would...

Fair enough. Personally, I struggle to believe someone who has meticulously built a specific brand/image would let anyone other than themselves have final approval of such valuable content. Especially when you take into account his OCD levels of cleanliness and organisation in his daily life.

Whilst entertaining I do find the more recent phenomenon of documentaries controlled by their subjects a little tiresome. They often lean a little heavily into hagiography where less favourable events to the subject can be brushed over quickly or ignored altogether.

Dutton making a quick exit as soon as the questioning of his position that funding to indigenous initiatives/communities needs to be investigated when his party was in power for 10 years up until last year was pathetic and unfortunately not surprising.

Was thinking the same thing. Did they have one last year? Disappointing if they've abandoned the concept as it was one of the few league decisions that was actually decent.

Here come the 'brave Carlton' comments.

Push was in the side not back

Just saw on 7 that Jobe is in the commentary box for tonight's game. How depressing 😞.

Easy now. Ryan has played 2 games.

Aside from being an average coach, Walls is also a dud of a human being. What kind of person would think the below constitutes reasonable team management? "It was revealed in the video "Passion To Play" that in Walls first year as Bears coach in 1991, as disciplinary action Walls authorised his...

Another Kerry Stokes 'captains call' to promote this fool. Kerry's got a good track record on those of late 🙁.

Great cause. Is the slide into an ice bath still the format? It's getting a little stale and could probably do with a refresh/new format.

He does love to educate the audience to anyone not born in Australia. Whenever he commentates a Hawthorn game he can't help but let everyone know that Connor Nash is an Irishman multiple times during every telecast. I've seen him do it with other players too. It's nearly on par with the...

Not a big fan of Sicily but being captain of this team is a poison chalice.

If you need to have played an AFL game/s to qualify to critique a player then this forum would be a ghost town.

If Brian Taylor hadn't made this bloke out to be more than he is then his career may well have been very different.

I'm looking forward to the inevitable day that technical difficulties result in the picture of a game being lost but only in the Fox Footy studio. Meanwhile, everyone has maintained the picture at home while the Fox commentary has to embarrassingly admit that they have no idea what's going on.

It's a garbage call and the AFL will likely double down on it being the correct decision publicly this week. However, I'll be fascinated to see if they try to dial it back internally with the umpires across the rest of the year. Had that been a bigger match in a more prominent timeslot the...

Maybe I've missed this before but I saw 7 had Darcy, Nathan Jones and Jobe Watson do the post match from the St. Kilda room yesterday. Darcy and Jones are dressed professionally, no tie but suit and collared shirt, and Jobe looks like he just wandering in off the street in a causal t-shirt and...

Wtf was with that?
