Please don’t bring Barrett’s sliding doors rubbish here. That’s not the Hawthorn footy club in the media.

That’s a desperate article, trying to get clicks every week.
 
Problem with ‘sliding doors’ is there’s perhaps 5 or 6 profound issues max per club each season. If it was monthly it would be readable. To do one per club each week just dilutes it with the authors thought bubbles, loses impact
 
It is extremely poor with no accountability but that’s the world we live in for all journalism. Whoever pays the bills sets the narrative and the dancing marionettes puppet anything to serve the master. In some ways it is hard to blame them people ultimately will behave according to how their performance is measured. All we can do is not click, easier said than done.
“Holding journalists to account” is third world talk. We know what happens in other countries, journos disappear off the face of the earth. We actually have pretty high standards here in Australia and it’s far easier to sue for defamation here than most other countries.

It is the media owners and the Murdoch-ification of everything that is the real issue. Turning all news into entertainment and profit, including afl.

Murdoch had been such an influential individual in the neo liberal era, and it’s mostly not good. Hopefully the era and his brand is over.
 
Refining how we defend was absolutely necessary. We needed that intent across the field and i am glad they are improving in that area. It has been a focus at training. Playing AFL games reveals a team's weaknesses. It is how we will refine the way we play going forward. See what works improve what doesn't. It is a journey. So patience is required

Got to feel for Footy Classified and other footy shows. With our win on the weekend, they've got to find another story to talk about this week.

Cats 0-3? Brisbane and Sydney failing in Melbourne?

Suppose the Racism thing is still going
Yes well. Happened to see the draft agenda 😆 F83B5C09-183C-49BF-AF9A-A887B7D71175.jpeg

Not the way I positioned it, holding them to account as individuals is through commercial means. You are talking about dictatorships not western countries which for context was what I was talking about. It is also not just Murdoch owned it’s everything; I live in the UK and the BBC flagrant bias is some of the worst and that stings most as it’s paid for by taxpayers.
 
Bartel seems very measured in the media... except when slotting goals to sink Hawthorn by a couple of points. Always liked him, but hated him versus Hawthorn.

He did us a favour in the last quarter of the 2013 prelim and hesitated right before Silk kicked the winning goal.
 
I know a lot of us like to pot shot Kane Cornes but how about we show Matty Lloyd a bit of love.

His comment tonight that with the form the Cats are in they couldn’t beat the Hawks by 100 points is just garbage. The bloke has no relevancy in the media with all the barracking he does.

Serious?

jeez, that's shit.

This mass-hysteria that somehow trading out two mid-fielders has made us unequivocally the worst team ever to play football. Does he think that any good team should expect to beat us by 100? FFS

These campaigners need a kicking.

Yep it is exactly what he said. No hesitation either. It’s what happens when you live a work in the Croc o shit Media bubble. They think everything they say is gospel
