Laidley vs Carey tonight on Footy Classified

Re: Craig Hutchison- is anyone else sick of this guy?

Did anyone notice when Hutchison did that live feed from the US last week how much he looked like a vampire?

He should rethink his career path and start auditioning for Wes Craven movies, because as a Journo he's got no credibility whatsoever.

Re: Craig Hutchison- is anyone else sick of this guy?

Loved how Caro accused Hutchy of interviewing Hay when he was "clearly on medication". When both Gary Lyon and Carey responded that this was actually how Jonathon Hay talks, she still wouldn't back down. Parting line was "you don't know for certain that he wasn't on medication" or words to that effect. Will she ever admit that she could be wrong?

Imagine being married to her.....shudder.

Re: Craig Hutchison- is anyone else sick of this guy?

Whilst i think Garry Lyon is humorous and quite entertaining and a good host of on the footy show is he neccessarily suited to be chair of this new show?? He at times does have some good ideas but he appears more comfortable when be going is more jocular. Fair?

She is right - how the **** would Hutchison know anything about Hay's treatment? And he has no right to anyway - Hay was clearly exploited whether he consented to the interview or not. Hutchison's motivation for the interview was purely ratings driven not for the betterment of Jonathon Hay or to destigmatise depression.

Hutchy might have asked him about it previous to the interview- as he alluded to on the show. I think you could look at it as Hay being exploited for ratings which is quite cynical, or you could look at it as an explanation of why he played such s%^t football, or you could look at it and say that it advertises the fact that everyday people deal with mental illness, and that it is devestating. I prefer the last view.

Re: Craig Hutchison- is anyone else sick of this guy?

Hutchys natural demenaor does him no favours - its like hes cruelly laughing inside at his 'guest'. Perhaps he is ?

He's the Peter Costello of the footy media.

As for hay lets say they were not unhappy Hay looked like that, they coundn't have slipped something in his tea could they ?

The priority is what is best for Jonathon Hay. Nothing more.

Well Hutchison claimed that he had actually asked Hay if he was on medication. I'm no fan of Hutchy but unless he's lying...or Hay lied to him, then I'm not sure that on this occasion he can be criticised.

As for his motivation being ratings driven...what a surprise. Last time I checked, this was his job. As I've posted elsewhere, this is the danger when a network bulids one of their reporters up like they have with Hutchy. He's now under pressure to get stories that no-one else apparently can get. The risk of him overstepping the line is sgnificant when the network is paying him big dollars to get another scoop.

Exactly. He can no longer be the average journo he probably wishes he still was.

It will be his downfall.

On Garry Lyon, at the end of the show when Carey said that he thought Port were the big surprise and best win for the round, Lyon responded by saying that he didn't know much about Port Adelaide....

Now I may have picked this up because it was my team but for F sake, your whole highly paid job is based around football, reporting and commentating on it, yet you claim not to know much about a team in 16 team competition that your meant to be an expert on? Surely you should have in depth knowledge on all 16 teams? Is that not what your paid to do?

I'd like to know who is harder to look at- Hutchison or Wilson?

Spot on.

Exactly what comes to my mind too.

Spot on. This bloke was that fat little toad you couldn't shake at school. He has a total lack of self-consciousness and always wanted to be a star but failed at everything but reporting on other people's successes (or even better their failures).

That classic old program World of Sport was staffed almost exclusively by ex-players. The scribes of the day were nowhere to be seen. No Alf Brown, no Jack Dunn, no Mike Sheahan. For one reason or another the writers have become the stars and it is completely arse-about. I will never understand it.

That little **** Hutch sits there ruling the roost and calling the shots as an anchor on this new sports show and it is hilarious. He is a pasty faced, no-talent, muck-racker with a slimy, mean streak and to hear him defending his "work" as imperitive and important is a joke.

Journos should be heard but not seen.

Re: Craig Hutchison- is anyone else sick of this guy?

Who cares about Hutchy and Caroline Wilson, how much of a **** is Wayne Carey, and how good did Laidley handle that interview.

I don't know how that show is going to continue amicably, Caro and Wayne hate each other, Hutchy and Caro like to bite at each others heads, and so do ******** Carey and Hutchy... Then there's good old Gary just stuck in the middle.

Re: Laidley vs Carey tonight on Footy Confidential

If you're a North supporter and you believe Laidley is the man to lead this club onto premiership glory in a few years time...good luck with that...

No amount of posting will change your minds it seems.

You should be listening to Carey and others like him and work out whats really wrong with Laidley...about how North are hanging by a thread and going nowhere fast with Deano in the driver's seat.

He didn't make sense at all last night...just run of the mill hogwash that anyone could crap on about.

He's pitching in the majors,when he should in the minor league.


He's not the right guy to coach the Roos....imo

Re: Craig Hutchison- is anyone else sick of this guy?

Someone try and hide Caroline's Face!! It's horrible. Hutchy's alright, but i think i'll have a gutfull of him by the end of this season. My god, Wayne was going at Caroline!! Shut your gob, Carey! I'm sick of it.

Both Caroline Wilson and Craig Hutchison made me feel sick last night. Is it possible for people to be so ugly?

Re: Craig Hutchison- is anyone else sick of this guy?

Channel 9 are making the mistake of continually pumping up his tyres. Public opinion will no doubt turn very negative. (its already started). Could be hated more than that f**kwit Wallsy..

Re: Laidley vs Carey tonight on Footy Confidential

Although this show has debuted with a hard hitting, confrontational approach, it wont last. Coaches and players WILL NOT want to come on a show like this as it's just going to add to the stress. Why would you deliberatly want to come on a show where you will be sniped continuously for 15 minutes?

Carey, in keeping with the spirit of the show, should have ploughed into Laidley but he insisted in slapping him and dancing away saying he didnt mean it. Laidley, much like his coaching, looked ill equipped to deal with the pressure coming from the other side of the desk. Wayne was shown up (again) for the egocentric wakner that he is. "You wouldnt have got Daniel Wells if it wasnt for me." I mean, HONESTLY, do you listen to yourself? You do understand why people think you're a t|t, dont you? A disgrace. And makeup needs to take it easy on him too, he looked like George Hamilton.

Craig Hutchison resembelled a dear in the headlights whenever he was asked a question. He's familiar with the format of the show, yet he looked startled whenever a question was asked of him. Although I have the utmost respect for much of the work he's done, the past 3 weeks at Nine and Footy Confidential have given credence to his 'Parasite' tag.

Wilson is clearly the most knowledgable person there, but I dont think she went hard enough at Carey. Perhaps she knew she was clearly superior and wasnt willing to waste too much breath on beating him down, but I wouldnt have minded a bit more vitriol coming from her, especially in his direction.

And just WHAT is going on with Caro's lips? Jesus.

I thought Wayne spoke a lot of sense, and showed up Caroline Wilson and Craig Hutchison nicely. He was the best performer there I thought.
