Why do the various footy shows all pack it in straight after the GF ? There’s still heaps going on. Coaching appointments, trades, scandals (Hawthorn), retirements, draft happenings etc etc.

Lazy bums all shut up shop way too early.

They hate us and they hate us bad
Have a look at SenGeelong front page 'Spoilt brat wants to go to Port'
But nothing on GWS accepting the deal to get Tarranto over to punt Rd.

Went to read an article about the Tiges this morning on The Age and its subscribers only. Tried the usual trick of clearing the buffer but nope, still blocked.
Went to their AFL section and tried another article (about the bummers) and it was not blocked.
Buggers are now playing funny buggers. They know we sell papers so want to slug us. Looks like they want to go the way of the HUN so I will then need to step away from reading this rag too pretty soon.

A snippet out of the H/S on the most powerful people in the AFL.
Couldn't help themselves and having another dig at Dusty and his media ban.

Dustin Martin​

Richmond champion​

Networks don’t fork out billions of dollars to televise B-graders – they are attracted to marquee names and there’s none bigger than Dustin Martin (and Buddy in NSW). So what a shame Dusty treats the media with such disdain. But it’s a special blend when the most marketable player in the game can draw kids to his ‘don’t argue’ fend-off and grown men to adopt his haircuts.


Dare you Sam Landsberger to say it too Dustys face.

Robbo got him to write
That is Robbo talking.
It's Robbo who had the issue noone else.
Why would Dusty talk to him?

To be fair, newspapers aren't charities.

So maybe RFC should give away free memberships because it has sponsors?
Maybe Rupert Murdoch should stump up and make it rain singles over Dusty like a drunk buck in strip bar and i'd think about paying to watch his ads and read his stories. Happy to pay for content to someone like mongrel punt for instance, just like i'm happy to see ads at the bottom of this page because it remains free (thanks PRE!). Now where can I get a newscorp guernsey I wonder?

If you want to read someone's work then you should pay for it.
Why? As the old saying goes, stolen fruit is always sweetest. Half the fun in life is being able to get away with snaffling freebies that you're not supposed to have. No matter how small or insignificant the ill gotten gain is always a joy.

I'm no fan of Uncle Rupe, but I don't get the complaining about paywalls.

If you want to read someone's work then you should pay for it.
I refuse to subscribe to any publication that considers the love lives of mia Fevola & Nadia Bartel to be newsworthy of any kind.
