News Media Thread, 2024: Insightful, Inciteful and Incomptent

Was about to say, I've had several of my mates say Fort dominated Grundy. Feel like I was watching a different game tbh.

 

[bzparkes]

Fort was serviceable against Grundy, he certainly didn't beat him.

12 touches, 19 hitouts, 4 clearances compared to Grundys 22 touches, 36 hitouts and 7 clearances.

Grundy was one of the very few players in his side who actually showed some ****ing heart.

Agreed.

Unsure why people are shitting on Grundy, he was pretty much Sydney's best player

So what was the big emotional message Bt had to say?

He made it up

When the siren went there was a slow mo vision of zorko celebrating in front of a bunch of swans fans and one of them is happily smiling away.

Not a true fan if you're smiling after a GF loss.

A lot of Syd fans are bandwagons

For all the shitting on him, and there is a lot that is warranted, he's done well for a nuffie that loves footy

 

[Brolga]

Goes back much further than that

With the exception of Gawn its going on 15 years or so

I thought Gawn was pretty average on grand final day and it was Jackson who sparked the Melbourne onslaught

 

[Tugga27]

Sam salty there were no Victorian sides playing methinks.

I’ve always had a bit of a soft spot for Robbo. He talks drivel sometimes but always seems to be on the side of traditional fans on most topics, which is often at odds with the money, ratings, corporate view.

Plus, the guy pretty much died and came back.

 

[ukurrie]

He made it up

Nah, I reckon he was reliably informed that Joe is retiring but got ahead of himself in hinting towards it and has backtracked. Luke Darcy inadvertently announced Tim Watson’s exit from Seven and got loads of heat from that.

I think the tip BT got was solid based on Joe’s teammates’ reaction to his second goal yesterday. There was something in that.

I’m not saying Joe will retire for sure, but it’s clear he is considering it.

 

[Farang83150]

. I find it disgraceful we weren't allowed to see more morbidity from the teams fans of the team I dislike the most

Same, made the comment a few times in our game day thread that they should cut to them more often

 

[Farang83150]

Was just wondering the same.

The guy is just such an utter FW, the sooner he's not around the better.

Keen to get his thoughts on the 94 GF.

He'd be happy to give them to you but unless you speak Irate Braindead Bastard you won't understand them.

I was hoping BT was retiring.
