Rumour Slobbo sacked, Lyon in the box seat

[The Mares Leg]

That's fine on Nicky's behalf, but Gary was still supposed to be a mate of Billy's. He betrayed his trust.

I think this has been done over more than Nicky - the discarded partner may think they’re owed something - but they’re in fantasyland.

"Knifed in the back" = bald bogan was given 100 chances to clean up his act, and chose the froffies every time.

Same goes for Robinson.

Brownless is an absolute relic, whose style was still 'accepted' in the early 2000s (at latest). Can't for the life of me figure out what 'value' he adds to the AFL media. Neither articulate, nor intelligent, nor interesting, or funny. You've got to be at least one of these.

 

[Matt Stevic]

Yep. Can't stand him.
I simply can't respect him for what he did to Brownless.

Yeah, some of us still think marriage means something.

They weren't together at the time.

Look, I think what Lyon did was a crap thing to do to a friend, but there wasn't cheating involved. You can be married and also separated, there's a legal cooling off period of separation.

At least Robbo had an opinion.

Gerard Whately is a boring fence sitter.

He quit footy at under 10s and yet is allowed an opinion on the AFL lol

I like Whateley, he's one of the few AFL journos who engages his brain before his mouth and doesn't just shout stuff for controversy. Doesn't make himself the centre of a story (hello, McClure/Wilson/Cornes).

So we can keep Dunstall who ticks all the boxes and get rid of Brereton, Lewis, Hodge and the truly awful Dixson?

These guys actually have a football IQ. Not hard to figure out you're a hawthorn hater.

agree. I can't imagine being around him 24/7, as he's constantly cerebral. But agree, never makes himself the centre, and doesn't pretend he actually played (Tom Morris, Sam Maclure).

And unlike most footy journos (including Morris, Maclure and Wilson) didn't have family connections to get where he is.
