Footy media , love’m or hate’ m ?

King’s definitely a weird unit. In one of Geelong’s Premiership years, he steadfastly refused to tip them, even when it became and more obvious that they were going to win. It seemed to make him more determined not to accept it.

All he quotes is stats

Im sorry but the old codger has him covered.
He was on last night sooking about 1 game in 28 days.
I will give him 2 years before they start going after him.

It's all to suit a narrative tho, he's usually all over pressure ratings etc but he's completely avoided discussing how little pressure the Cats were under in the last 2 games but is all over how efficient they were.

 

[Spirit of Jack]

King is playing a media role - typically talks up and tips the underdogs - except when the Tiges were underdogs in 2017 of course!

Healy just said WC winning the flag was his favourite GF moment!
Foxtel need to show him the door.

Did anyone tell him that WC are already on holidays?

Rhetorical I know, but aren't journalists meant to write balanced articles?

You have read the Hun before I assume?

It’s stats. You can manipulate them to suit whatever story you want them to tell.

Unless she’s got inside information I think she’s talking out her backside.

Certainly at odds with what Bashir said a few days ago.

Tom Morris and Jon Ralph were just talking about where Nankervis would be playing next year after rejecting to sign with Richmond.

Who signed his contract during the week if it wasn't his. Those 2 are like the Hardy boys, trying to track down these mysteries.

Ian nankervis?
bruce nankervis?

 

[Bullarto Tiger]

Signed on for another three years
They'll probably also say RCD is on the move, even though he just signed for another two years.
Far too many talking heads involved in footy nowadays.
Seems, unfortunately, that most don't know what they're talking about.

If you listen to some thing often enough..it might become true.
Since 2008 we have lost once at the Gabba.
Once

Be fair. In order to know that he'd already re-signed they'd have to be able to read.
