I'll always love Lingy for his deeds when wearing a Geelong jumper. But he's lost his way as a commentator when matters concern Geelong. I found it extremely amusing he had a crack at Eddie McGuire on the w/end. He can't see it, but he too has caught Eddie's disease. Lingy wears too many hats these days he doesn't know which he's wearing at any given time. I was extremely disappointed to see his media comments re Selwood being frustrated. Selwood has every right to be pissed off, and should be. As should our club. Ling used a private conversation between him and our captain for his media purposes. His role as leadership consultant at our club is a club-only role and one which is remunerated. Matters arising from this role are the private domain of our football club only, not for public consumption. Or for when Ling decides to conveniently wear his geelong cap AND his 3AW one. On top of that, the timing couldn't have been worse. To read of a "frustrated" Selwood in the Heraldsun on the Monday in which the MRP sits was completely inappropriate.
Ling let down Selwood, he let down one of his employers (GFC) and he let down himself. If our club is fair dinkum about going from "Good to Great" (remember that policy?), they should be having a stern chat with Ling too.
