Media Swans Talk in the Media 2024

I'm a fan of BJ's (usually) intelligent and thoughtful writing. It makes for a refreshing change from all the regular numpties who mostly just parrot each other.

Had a bit of a shock for a moment there..

Read his twitter feed & you won’t see intelligent or thoughtful - you’ll see smug.

But fear not Mr Duck (my kindred waterfowl), for there is always Will Hayward’s twitter to save the day.

Will we see any article calling out that tossa Macrae? He's quick to blame umpiring for any Pies loss and somehow glosses over the non-calls and wrong calls that got them so many close wins and even a flag through dodgy umpiring. A flag out of a team he didn't build and a wink to his old mates at the AFL from Eddie the racist

Shulz dumps Heeney in a dangerous tackle - Play on! Seconds later sidebum ducks and gets a free inside 50. Come on Macrae, why don't you be honest and mention that. Home ground advantage? My arse. You brought your own umpires and you still lost. Back to back? Back to obscurity.

I don't read anything on Twatter. A platform owned by a fascist? No thanks my quacky friend

Slightly off topic (I admit) but current and almost relevant....

My brother is a Pies supporter from Tassie. He was at the SCG tonight (poor sod), standing in the rain and wondering why, when Hobart has half the rainfall of Sydney, and less than Melbourne, Brisbane and Perth too, why weren't the media asking why Hobart had to build a roof, just to have a team?

Embracing the chaos - great comment.



As per usual - every win we get concentrates on the 1 single moment,

How tone deaf is Macrae to say that "home ground advantage exists" and "that would have been paid at the MCG" and not understand the point he's inadvertently making?

As for the decision itself - I couldn't have been too filthy if it was paid, but I'm glad the umpire recognized that Tom couldn't have done much more to pull up and follow instructions.

Warner’s tackle with 90secs to go was huge

Still can’t believe so many, including a few on this board, are fooled by him. He’s a brat and a sore loser who won a flag on the longest run of luck I’ve ever seen.

What a delight it is to end their season and hopefully they slip back in to the bottom four for a few years yet.

Very interesting i would of loved to see what Longmire said last week but i get it will never be shown.

 

[Heeney2Franklin]

I wonder how much of that is for the camera and what is his usual message to the players post game

He gave them 2 days off this week. Basically go away clear your heads and freshen up.

I don't think so so. He's not that venal.

Fair point, it’s not that much colder there compared to Melbourne either.

I assume it would be because of the location (waterfront) and the subsequent climate (mostly cold and windy).. but a roof shouldn’t be a deal breaker there.

Part of me loves the heritage of the SCG but i also would love a new stadium. But we just don't have the private ownership net worth of US sport or Football clubs around the world

I'd love a new stadium with the exact same field measurements as the MCG.

Nope, I want to create a real home ground advantage by having our field in the same of a triangle.

Has anyone seen footage of the pre-match lap for the legends?

Interesting they had the "team talk" after the Bulldogs game looks like it didnt do anything
