A little crispy one Garry - The footy media thread

whoever works at AFL Record mustn’t follow football much.

Unsurprising. Last season I lost count of how often the commentators called our players by the wrong name. Their care factor for accuracy is in single digits.

Can someone end Kane Cornes media career?
Click bait, outrage seeking bs …
Dudes a joke, Jerry springer of AFL.

Good on Slobbo for calling out the pos gargoyle

The other alternative, of course, is not to watch/listen/read what he has to say. Simples.

This is a big reason why the game is in the toilet. Journo’s are made out to be so much bigger than they are and actually appear of football shows like they have some sort of standing in the game

How the hell is the above even a story?

One big circle jerk all round

The preseason footy record that replaced a detailed write-up of draftees with an AFL ‘Power List’ full of journos and execs and garbage really rustled my jimmies.

“Rustled my jimmies” is a fantastic line!!

This is pretty poor I reckon.

Yeah it’s a nice story for Curtis but to me(and I’m no expert here) to meit’s looks like a lot of bloody unnecessary gaslighting of the of the poor folks affected by the hawthorn racism scandal.

Cal Twomey - I’m a bit disappointed he would write that to be honest.

On avoiding Kane …
I’ve noticed the full circle on how click bait references of this ■■■■■■■ arsehat of a d1ckhead.

Originally- headline would say, “Kane Cornes says/ calls out / hot take etc”

  • then people cottoned onto him being a flog & stopped opening those articles

Brief adjustments to “Cornes says…”

  • 5min later everyone understood it wasn’t Graham or Chad… just ■■■■■■■ Kane again, so they stopped clocking on those articles

Moved to “Port legend”

  • Occasionally fall for it, but not often because you’d gel so dirty for the quick click

Evolved to “AFL legend”

  • Yeah… a bit of a crap shoot. 50/50 it’s ■■■■■■■ Kane.

Now I’m seeing they’re using “Kane Cornes says” again to exploit the hate bait.

I actually didn’t give the Hawthorn scandal a thought when I read it. I just thought it was about Curtin being in shock and maybe a bit embarrassed. But yeah, I guess it could be having a dig at Clarkson, especially the headline.

Oh just how cal made such a deal of Clarko being so happy etc etc.

It just reads like a stitch up. Honestly players are having kids all over the comp.

Why make Curtis’s Bub front page news?

Then it hits you about half way down.

Honestly I think the less said about Clarkson the better.

Redemption story for Clarkson. No doubt ordered by the aFL.

Watching 360 gaddy lyon praising gorth, congratulating them for building a good team. No mention of years of priority draft picks etc. Then canning bombers for failing drafts etc. lacking skill and being in a world of pain. I guess we’ll be getting priority picks, won’t we, won’t we?
