I used to despise Eddie, but I think he has a lot of very bright ideas for the future of the game, and you can tell he absolutely loves footy to a point not many others in the media seem to do
He’s collingwood 1st. 2nd. 3rd. 4th. He’s hoodwinked thousands. Smug campaigner.

Don't get what Hutchy's beef with Leon Cameron was. The comment that GWS finally had a coach with dare and wanting to play as a expansion club was pretty ordinary. Leon took them to a GF! Give him some credit.
 
I see Korn spent 15 minutes bagging Melbourne's finals performances......yet glossed over Port and the saga surrounding Hinkley.

The guy is a 100% hypocrite.
Will defend to the death, the indefensible.

Whateley’s another one. His unwavering defence of Ken was challenged enthusiastically by King yesterday. No decent reply from Gerard. Didn’t have a leg to stand on. Should have declared he’s a mate.

Wound up the discussion with ”let’s move on”.

Had a gutful of these conflicted commentators. Why don’t they just declare their conflicts and not comment. The rubbish they speak is so transparent. Twist themselves in knots trying to avoid criticising.

Brad Hardie’s another one: his defence of Beveridge and the Bulldogs has been woeful. You’d think he would know and give a bit of insight but no, deflection.

Matthew Lloyd is about the only person you’d trust to speak fairly about their old club.
 
How can they bag Goodwin and not bag Hinkley? Insane.
Have literally bagged premiership coaches in Beveridge, Goodwin, Simpson, Clarko a little even all year, yet Hinkley is doing a great job. Even Fagan is given pressure if he doesn't at least get into the GF. One of the biggest downgrades of the media over the years is how super supportive they are for the teams they go for now. Even Caro back in the day wasn't so one-eyed Tigs.

She could not care less about Newman. Richard Goyder on the other hand…I don’t think that was the first time she took aim at him.

Interesting that when they showed the promo for "the Footy Show GF anniversary", they didn't show Sam being interviewed. I reckon he was definitely there for sure the previous week.
 
Eddie, the reason you get someone on the show in the "hot seat" is for them to answer the question, not to listen to your opinions.
Tom Morris was doing the exact same thing on that new footy show last night. Unwatchable.
Imagine being vain enough to think your opinion carries equal weight to Leigh Matthew’s and Jimmy Bartel?
 
Eddie completely ruins the show for me

Just like his podcast, he is just using the platforms to spruik his ideas of how HE wants the game to be run and look. I remember listening to an interview he was giving about his time hosting the Footy show and he said his golden rule at the start was to try and stay out and let the “stars be stars”….. He should remember that.
