You think what Robbo said was funny.

Matthew Lloyd in his wisdom said that if Hawkins didn’t get suspended that Geelong would have won last year’s premiership.
You could also argue the theory that Geelong might not have beaten West Coast had Hawkins not done whatever it was he got reported for, which is why the suspensions are there.
If your Aunt Edna had balls ...

Plenty challenge Robbo on Twitter, they then get blocked.

Got banned from SEN when he used to be on , he was coherent and when challenged he just rambled.
Called him a "drunk"

Anyone that sees him or has on 360 would have to question as to how he is on tv..

I think that’s part of why he gets a gig. What stupid pronouncement will he make this time?

We're the highest-scoring team since April 2017. Someone needs to publicly challenge his credentials as CFW.

There's definitely been a narrative pushed from some in the media that we're not an exciting team to watch.
It's an attempt to belittle what a great team we are now because it threatens their own team's legacies.

Tiges fans know better & see through this complete & utter BS.

Agreed. He probably can’t spell or even say pronouncement.

He can't write either. Not as a journo. Practically the only time he ever comes up with anything decent is special interest stories, like the one after Danny Frawley's death or the one with Trevor Barker's mum after Barker was admitted to the HoF.

He should take over from Jon Anderson, that's his calling. Mick Warner needs to put the gloves back on and have another crack.

How can anyone call a coach "tentative" after he's changed the course of the game? It beggars belief.

We're not exciting to watch? Steele Sideass said ,paraphrasing here, "we need to block up the centre, because we know that's where they like to go". How many other teams, prior to this year, had this as their focus. In an era where most teams look to the safety of moving the ball along the wings, we want to go BANG through the centre. Wonder what Slobbo will say when the coach pinching bastards from Tullamarine really start using our game plan?

Yeah Blobbo said it was a dull game coz both coaches are defensive, not so much Buckley. No one mentioned collingwood parking the bus after qtr time.

89 point GF win not enough for some. Amazing how some footy experts have NFI.

In our 2 recent premiership wins we have kicked the 2nd and 3rd highest GF scores in the last decade. But they won't mention that.
Premierships is what it's all about, jealousy is a course.

If you watch him, when someone praises us. He either changes the subject or interupts with another question.
It may have been a dull game. But 99% of the population watched the 2 best defences at work.
Howe and moore were both unbelievably good intercepting any high ball, while Crimes, broad, Houli and Big V constantly counter punched any attack by Collingwood.
Without been one eyed, we had their measure for longer periods in the game. But we weren't good enough to open them up.
A nil all draw is a fitting result

Spot on Harry. Despite the fact we didn't play that well it is very hard to score when you have 18 opposition players in your forward 50.

The spectacle of that game was all on Buckley's tactics yet hardly anyone in the media has highlighted it. I reckon the only one was the journo in the after game presser who asked Buckley what he thought about not kicking a goal after half time. Nafan got all defensive and asked the journo if he was going to ask Dimma the same question. The journo said he wouldn't as Richmond didn't go goalless in the second half :rotfl2:rotfl2Nafan sucked lemons.

Anyway, the standard of impartial reporting on football nowadays is just pathetic. They all have their own agendas.

There main reason we couldn't open them up is that Nafan put 18 behind the ball after quarter time.

Yeah and tosser oppo supporters keep trying to downplay our GF wins because we only beat interstate teams.

Funny how we didn't hear any of that when Hawthorn beat 3 interstate teams in a row; in an era of extremely compromised drafts which made it difficult for teams to improve their lists quickly. Also never heard it when Geelong beat Port by 119 points. Or when the Bulldogs beat

The footy world just can not cope with the fact that the RFC is no longer a laughing stock and is in fact the most powerful club in the AFL.
