saw that article, look at his bio. its a stain on the media that it is filled with so many of these incredibly biased opinion pieces. opinion is not 'news'. this guy is just a sad excuse making sack of shit.
Nice counter article here.

That's one of the things that left me shaking my head.
Sure, we've been choking other teams and restricting their scoring, but it's not like we haven't been scoring ourselves.
So, yeah, 16 goals is hardly "low scoring."
The guy has no idea.

i said in another main board thread, wtf more do they want? adelaide 'were' the most attacking and 'exciting' team and averaged 110. we scored 108. Its not our fault we creamed their forwards.

Yeah, it's bizarre.
He's wetting himself over Adelaide and their 110 point average, but when Richmond scores 108 points it's "boring."
Shakes head...

Pretty sure Der-wayne Russell wrote a similar article a few days ago.
Going to print both out and use them for toilet paper.

There should be simple criteria for Journalists writing AFL Stories. Mandatory - The must have watched more than 5 games in their professional career. Their name must not be "Grant Thomas" for obvious reasons. They cannot write any articles if the club they support has just been smashed in the "unlosable Grand Final".
Considering this clown does not fit any of the criteria, it is safe to say that he is - Unprofessional, a Soccer fan and is a recent new Crows supporter. If I am incorrect with any of these statements, then clearly he is Grant Thomas.

He had a long miserable trip back to Adelaide, plenty of time for the monkey to grind the handle and think about the opportunity snatched from them by the far better side on the day. Mmmmmmm Salty!

Very poorly written article. 0/10. Here are some quotes:
This judgement is not only patronising to many teams but he probably obtained his 'arguments' from Facebook posts on the AFL page, which echoed similar sentiments.
Style was on display in our Grand Final win, for those with a keen eye for the one percenters, slick handballs, and ruthless pressure, which is testament to a blue-collar, old school win. How we interpret 'style' though can vary from person to person, so this 'journalist' is really communicating an opinion (which has very little validity and reliability).
lol
The rest of it is not very informative.
Pathetic, Jai. Get back in ya hole.
The funny thing is, for all this talk about how we won as a "defensive" team, the reality is that we scored 108 points, and our lowest score throughout the finals was 91 against Geelong.
It's not as if we did a Paul Roos/John Worsfold Grand Final of 05/06 where the scores were 60-50 lol, we kept our oppo to that type of score, but we also kicked a big score ourselves.
I would wager that a team which scores 108 points in a game of footy wins a vast majority of games, whether finals or otherwise.

Does this pissant normally report on Mercedes fashion week. A GF is all about who can step up and win the contest . Boo hoo that Richmonds manic pressure tarnished the games aesitics , it's called finals footy

Was listening to SEN last nite around 7pm (Not sure who it was on the show) and they mentioned this article. Gave it a good lampooning and rightly so. A terrible terrible article.
