Hey Michael Gleeson, time to retire mate, you wrote shit about Cotchin and that he has to be suspended but funnily enough the AFL MRP disagreed with your esteemed opinion. You also stuffed up last w...eek by saying GWS would easily account for the Tigers. Well Saturday evening proved that GWS can't hack the pressure of the Tigers yet again and so got beaten in the race for a flag. If The Age is going to continue to print your rubbish, at least the Sub Editor could do is make it real instead of fantasy dreamed up junk that is in your head. See More

Great reporters and analysts like Rohan and Emma are unable to lift Age Real Footy beyond poor. Far too much is drip fed by AFL headquarters; far too much is fabricated rubbish designed to discredit i...ndividuals; far too much is intellectually dishonest. Nowadays, just a shadow of a formerly great paper. Time to truly be Independent. Always. Speak the Truth. Stand for your convictions. Do it now!! See More
