AFL and Channel Seven in Bed Together

[Bullarto Tiger]

I choked on my cereal this morning when I opened the newspaper (see attached article).
The AFL and Channel 7 are just gagging for GWS to win the grand final. The television coverage is going to be pretty biased.
They both reckon it will be "tremendous for business" if GWS win the GF.
The Tigers will stick it up the corrupt AFL and Channel 7 will be weeping in its dwindling stock market shares price when Richmond receives the premiership cup from Maureen Hafey.
Go Tigers

One more step for GWS a Giant leap for AFL

The Victorian clubs understand that if the Giants succeed, they all win.

funny the guy that wrote it - Chip Le Grand?? - writes about "crime, sport and national affairs, with a particular focus on Melbourne". Tosser. anyway the article is tripe and gives me another reason to hope we smash them.

Sickening article written by an idiot, nothing but hollow and contrived praise.
I had to laugh when I read the part about how the plastics will be the biggest financial entity in Australian sport in 20 years time!!

this whole media bias is getting beyond ridiculous. but the whole us against the world thing will make it even more sweeter come 5pm saturday.

Reading that article does anyone believe the AFL might have been behind manipulating sponsors for their Frankenstein child in GWS.
I didnt know that. EFC got shafted imo


"For evidence of this, you need only follow the money. At the end of last season, car maker Kia ended its long-standing Essendon sponsorship and tied its brand to the Giants, joining Virgin and Toyo Tires, a national company headquartered near Campbelltown in western Sydney, as the club’s top tier sponsors. "


Yeah... coys & media following the AFL money. The AFL say jump, not only they say how high, they stay "afloat" in the air till advised they can come down.
Go Tiges

Who can remember that article after our 2017 GF win.
How Tigers winning would ruin football with our bunch of battlers.

AFL’s boring, biased blockbuster

Nothing particularly wrong in the article and it’s written by a proper journalist (unlike the chief writer in the other paper).
Always been plenty of hype when other clubs made their debut GF appearances - or first appearance in a long time.
I don’t mind the GWS in principle (probably a minority view) but obviously hope we smash the scheisse out of them on Saturday

That guy still has a job, believe it or not. Will be watching for his reaction if we win. Maybe even an apology.

99% of Western Sydney have never seen an AFL game and never will. Irrespective of the result on Saturday this wont change.

Nearly ain't good enough . . . let's hope GWS nearly win a flag tomorrow.
