Roast Media Shakes Head, Part 7

[Duckimus Prime]

BT thinks that intercepts should be when a player leaves their direct opponent to cut off an attacking play.

He doesn't think that a defender just out making their direct opponent is enough for a new stat.

 

[RussellEbertHandball]

Heard from someone, that the SEN boys during the call, including Kane Cornes, may have been making some insuations that Ollie Wines leaving the ground due to Nasuea was a cover for him not being in great form or worse still, should have played through it.
Did anyone hear it or am I being spun a line.

Yes I heard Kornes, Sam Edmund and a couple of callers wank on about it. I posted it in the injury thread, quoting a tweet about Ollie's heart issue.

I understood it, but it is still senseless.

The great-grandson of one of 5aark's current presenters?

There's no point in analysing Ricci's drivel - he writes what he's paid to write. What gets me is that none of the other "journalists" will challenge it, either in the post-match pressers or in their own analyses.

It really is like none of them want to go against the AFL company line.

It’s Port, not Carlton, Pies, Bombers, we are not worth the hassle…

The bit insinuating that a fair portion are fake fans or external trolls who are the ones up in arms.

If I hated Port, I’d want the incumbent coach and the simps who enable him to remain at the levers forever.

I mean, jfc, we had a certain boffin on here who strained himself through a pasta machine to justify what these idiots were doing year after year.

If you were a Collingwood or Crows fan you’d be going back and liking every single one of his missives — not ringing up and ‘fake-attacking’ Hinkley and Port’s dreadful record.

“Just a blip, moite! In Ken We Trust!”

Sad news for Crows Radio Five AA - they lost even more listeners in the latest radio ratings survey.

Rowe's segment slumped even further (down 0.6) and is Adelaide's 7th most popular show in the drive segment- just ahead of Radio National, ABC Classical, JJJ and ABC News Radio.

Penberthy and Goodings lost a whopping 3.6 points to be overtaken by Nova 919 and well behind ABC 891.

And sad news for Graham Cornes and KG Cunningham. Five AA actually lost ground in the over 65's audience and were relegated behind Cruise Radio in the race for elderly Adelaide radio listeners.

all this can be attributed to their audience dying off.. literally

Who would’ve thought that media content straight from 1980s “kick a vic” “SA great mate” or more recent “1990s treachery” “Carn tha Crows” would’ve gotten stale

Warren Partland goatie and all is probably their only listener

There's no independence in commercial media anymore. The media and AFL are commercial partners these days.

 

[Enviable Tradition]

AA must be seriously considering dropping their Vax mandate so they can replace Rowe with Tredders.

There is no reason he even has to do the show from the studio.

 

[afl2004]

Big up hinkley and lose ratings

Love to see it

 

[manureid]

Rucci is even more clueless than this guy these days....

The stronger Port Adelaide off the field today is largely due to the fanbase.

On the field, the club has been a shitshow more often than not over the past 10 years.

Yet when Hinkley finally goes after torching the club and riding it into the ground through a decade of non-success and a turgid gameplan, the fans will cop it for having jumped off.

This is the thing, not a lot has gone right after 2004.

Any groundswell of rising anger isn’t just for the talent and opportunities Hinkley has wasted over 10 years, but you can obviously chuck in the Williams/Primus years as well — ‘chokes’, record GF defeat, the basement-dwelling nadir punctuated by question marks on the club’s very existence.

In that context, finishing top-2 and earning back to back home PF’s only to completely blow it, followed by sinking like a stone, ain’t gonna ****ing cut it.

said this on Fox Footy about the Melbourne game:

“They went in with a specific game plan to try and beat the Melbourne Football Club - if you start to change drastic things in your game plan then I think as a player you lose confidence in your own ability and they totally went in with a game plan to keep the ball off Melbourne, try to deny them that ball.
“I would have loved to have seen Port Adelaide go, ‘No, this is a chance to put our brand on show against the best team in the competition and see how it stacks up.’ I just think they got the coaching wrong against Melbourne.”

Surely there's multiple issues with these statements right?
" if you start to change drastic things in your game plan then I think as a player you lose confidence in your own ability".. ummm.... what? So we're not winning because of our shit game plan but we shouldn't change it because players might loose confidence in themselves? I can see very specific examples of this, playing Mayes over Marshall in full forward for example, but surely players are more resilient than this right? Right?

Also... "this is a chance to put our brand on show against the best team in the competition"... What "brand" would that be? The last time we had a "brand" was what? 2014? When we had a fast, free flowing brand of run and gun football that everybody loved to watch. We got pipped by Hawthorn in the prelim and we went and got Charlie Dixon

The main point is;
" I just think they got the coaching wrong against Melbourne.”

Therefore, Sack Hinkley.

No - the brilliant mind of Kenny wouldn’t get the coaching wrong
