what pic is this referring to?
Why would you want to see it, you'd be reinforcing why they violated the family's rights...
Not so much Essendon in the Media, but wow are all journalists morons
Usain Bolt‘s Commonwealth Games press conference was insane
AND this is why journalists get a bad reputation.
Usain Bolt, one of the biggest stars in world sport, rocks into town and they ask him about ... Gaza? About the Scottish referendum?
Come on, man.
The Jamaican six-time Olympic champion was holding his first press conference since arriving in Glasgow as the only bona fide global superstar of the Commonwealth Games.
But rather than treat Bolt with respect, the press made a mockery of the situation.

“You‘ll be aware that the Commonwealth Games are the friendly Games, with a subtext of human rights,†one journalist began.
“In the past, the Israel and Palestine territories have tried to join the Commonwealth.
“You‘re a man of the world. What is your view?â€
The look says it all. Source: Getty Images
A bemused Bolt responded: “The view on what situation?â€
“The situation in Gaza and Israel right now,†the journalist added.
Bolt raised his hands in the air.
“For me, I hear about it but I don‘t really follow politics so I can‘t really comment unless I have the full details.â€
Seriously? Source: AFP
Then it was a Scottish journalist‘s turn to make a fool of herself.
“Can I just ask you what your opinion is of an independence referendum on Scotland coming up in a couple of months‘ time. Have you got any thoughts?â€
Bolt laughed.
“I didn‘t even know that. I‘m sorry.â€

Bolt arrived on stage with local schoolkids and the Games mascot, all of them performing his trademark pose in unison.
But it was the journos who stole the show with the ridiculous questioning.
Channel 10 reporter Roz Kelly also copped heat on social media for asking for a selfie with Bolt.
When the questions finally turned to what is relevant – whether or not he would be competing at the Games – Bolt confirmed he would run in the 4x100m relay.
“For me it was very important (to be here),†Bolt said.
“I will be running in the heats of the relay because I need the runs, this is my first run for the season so I really need to get it going.â€
And his expectation of his first visit of Glasgow?
“A lot of rain maybe and seeing a lot of kilts around the place.â€
The world‘s fastest man could not get out of that press conference quick enough.
On Talking Footy, Watson said that the whole Hird returning to Essendon was handled poorly. But, Wayne Carey again backed Essendon. Then they replayed the Patrick Smith vs. Robbo who he accused of writing on behalf of Essendon.

Yeah for once I want him to ■■■■■■■ GO ON WITH IT
Yeah for once I want him to ******* GO ON WITH IT
He won't. On the field he was great, tough and uncompromising. In the media he is reactive,weak and spineless.

Chappy on Sat Night pre game from 6:30pm.
Robbo gave a great interview on SEN just before 6pm today. Gave it to the 3 anti EFC journos that have had the loudest voices....but I'm guessin' most of y'all already knew that!

Lol, Robbo is just as bad. He'll be on telly again next week saying he just doesn't know how Hird could come back to the club, or that the court case is a smoke screen.
He'll be trying to push his agenda which is basically that his paper has got it more right than the other papers.
Hurley on ch7 now
Hurls doesn’t look happy…and from the response he and goodie gave on Fletcher playing next year, I think he may retire…

Imagine making finals and Fletch announces his retirement on the eve of the finals series, I want him to play on but that would be epic sending him out in a big finals tilt.
I want the opposition belted by 100 pts. in the final game for Fletch. He deserves every bit from everyone at the EFC. No exceptions.
GO BOMBERS!!!
