As it is, these gelatinous parasitic pharisees at AFL headquarters, led by Demetriou and that other weasel Adrian &#8220;Which end of the football do you Kick&#8221; Anderson&#8230;what IS his claim to football fame other than having his head up Demetrious sphincter, can&#8217;t get a simple fixture right&#8230;play each other once, then start again until you hit 22 games each club has played&#8230;simple isn&#8217;t it&#8230;apparently not when you have Richmond and Hawthorn playing each other for the first time in Round 21 in a 16 team competition!!!!!</p>
<p>If this is &#8220;The Peoples&#8221; game, then maybe the positions on the AFL board should be elected by the people&#8230;those 2 morons would not stand a chance of getting their jobs back&#8230;GIVE ME BACK MY GAME!!!!!!</p>

<p><strong>GROUNDHOG DAY AT THE AFL</strong></p>
<p>It&#8217;s becoming boring.</p>
<p>Everytime there is a draw in the AFL, the reporters, press and talk back radio stations go beserk with the &#8216;Why do we have to have the draw&#8217; syndrome.</p>
<p>As soon as the siren went in the Richmond v North drawn game, I knew we would be going into meltdown with the whinging and grissling of the AFL press who are desperate for a story&#8230;any story&#8230;</p>
<p>It&#8217;s the same each year for the ANZAC Day clash as well &#8211; GROUND HOG DAY. &#8220;Let&#8217;s have a phone in to see if your club deserves to host the ANZAC DAY clash&#8221; they cry.</p>
<p>Then they start on getting rid of the umpires bouncing the ball.</p>
<p>It&#8217;s boring and monotonous.</p>
<p>These are all fantastic parts of our unique game.</p>
<p>Let&#8217;s face it. I love the AFL draw. It&#8217;s tense and exciting in the last moments of the game. One team is the winner and one is the loser anyway because one of the teams has quite often blown the game (as in Richmond this year) and someone has saved their skin (North Melbourne this year).</p>
<p>The draw is a fantastic part of our game. I take you back to the first ANZAC DAY clash. Both sides, Essendon and Collingwood were fantastic that day. The result was a draw and we are all still talking about it.</p>
<p>How about my favorite. The &#8220;One more Kerna&#8221; day at the MCG where Carlton Bult, Steve Kernahan kicked for goal from Kernahan&#8217;s pocket after the siren when scores were level . He kicked out of bounds on the full! Carlton lost the draw that day, Essendon won the draw.</p>
<p>I&#8217;ve heard people say that it was terrible to see players so deflated after the Richmond/North game. They reckon Brent Harvey looked devastated and depressed&#8230;well stiff bikkies, I reckon. Scenes like these are part of our great game. They didn&#8217;t know whether to sing the song or not&#8230;get over it and sing the song next time you win. (In Richmond&#8217;s case, they&#8217;ve probably forgotten the words anyway).</p>
<p>How about caretaker Richmond Coach, Jade Rawlings  who says he would rather have lost than finished on a draw. What kind of a fool statement is that?</p>
<p>Receiving 2 match points for the draw has often put a new slant on the shaping of the final 8.</p>
<p>*I&#8217;ve heard arguments for extended time of 5 minutes for each team.</p>
<p>*I&#8217;ve heard of a goal kicking shootout (you might as well toss a coin or do the paper, scissors, rock thing)</p>
<p>*How about the bloke who suggested that the team who kicks the first goal of the match should be retrospectively awarded the win in a drawn game.</p>
<p>*Or the next goal wins if scores are level at siren time &#8211; I hope we&#8217;re kicking with the wind with that one&#8230;</p>
<p>*One idiot even phoned the radio station to suggest a replayed match after the Grand Final &#8211; the funds to go to charity&#8230;Well I&#8217;m sorry, but when I begin my AFL career, I will be on the end of season trip for that one&#8230;</p>
<p>Mike Sheahan&#8217;s article in Tuesday 21 July Herald Sun just about made me sick. Sheahan always goes against the grain of our game as he is just another reporter desperate to fill his press column with a controversial headline.</p>
<p>That idiot Craig Hutchison was at it again on Talking Footy, Monday night. &#8220;Why is ours the only sport who doesn&#8217;t deal with a drawn contest?&#8221; he bleated. Well I&#8217;ve just got one word to say to Hutchy &#8220;Soccer&#8221;. Does this bloke forget that soccer deals up a draw in most of its encounters. Soccer World Cup has a penalty shootout which rewards the team with the best full forward.</p>
<p>How about cricket? You can play 5 days for a draw and I&#8217;ve seen some fantastic, tense and exciting drawn contests which go down to the last ball of the 5th day.</p>
<p>Our game goes for about 100 minutes, if you can&#8217;t separate the combatants in that time, well so be it. Enjoy the novelty of the draw. Some of the best games in history have been draws and these are games we are still often talking about.</p>
<p>Fair dinkum, I&#8217;m on my soap box about this one but I&#8217;m sick of people always trying to change what is perfect.</p>
<p>I&#8217;ve had enough &#8211; LEAVE OUR GAME ALONE.</p>

<p><em><strong>DGES FOOTYTALK &#8211; our premier website.</strong></em></p>
<p>Bizarre really.</p>
<p>I was a bit puzzled to log on to DGES FOOTYTALK today, only to find that we had 48 hits to the site today alone. What could it be?..thought I. After all, I haven&#8217;t entered a &#8216;Bad Footy Card&#8217; for a few days or any other intelligent post of such note for that matter.</p>
<p>I delved a little further and found that we had no less than 78 hits from people who had googled &#8220;Voldemort&#8221; in their search engine thing in the past 2 days and they hence ended up at DGES FOOTYTALK. (You may recall that DGES FOOTYTALK carried the scoop that Carlton star, Chris Judd was playing the part of Voldemort in the Harry Potter movies).</p>
<p><a href="http://dgesfootytalk.files.wordpress.com/2009/07/judd1.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-953" title="judd" src="http://dgesfootytalk.files.wordpress.com/2009/07/judd1.jpg?w=142&#038;h=137" alt="judd" width="142" height="137" /></a><a href="http://dgesfootytalk.files.wordpress.com/2009/07/voldemort3.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-954" title="voldemort" src="http://dgesfootytalk.files.wordpress.com/2009/07/voldemort3.jpg?w=148&#038;h=135" alt="voldemort" width="148" height="135" /></a></p>
<p>Coincidence?&#8230;you may ask&#8230; but it just so happens that the latest Harry Potter movie, &#8220;Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince&#8221; hit the screens this week and the world has been googling for more info on the hit Harry Potter movies. As luck would have it for those googlees, they have all now experienced the joys of the DGES WORLD FAMOUS FOOTY TIPPING COMP via DGES FOOTYTALK.</p>
<p>As they will all now know, The world is a far better place for experiencing the DGES WORLD FAMOUS FOOTY TIPPING COMP. (far more entertaining than Harry Potter)</p>
<p>P.S Congratulations and thank you to our loyal fans. Our website hit count has registered 7136 views in just over 12 months. Considering we are only active for 6 months of the year, our very own DGES WORLD FAMOUS FOOTY TIPPING COMP website is polling extremely well.</p>

Well, well, well&#8230;he&#8217;s been at it again.
Most of you will know that I have little regard for the loud mouthed AFL reporter, Craig &#8216;Hutchy&#8217; Hutchison.

<p>Well, well, well&#8230;he&#8217;s been at it again.</p>
<p>Most of you will know that I have little regard for the loud mouthed AFL reporter, Craig &#8216;Hutchy&#8217; Hutchison.</p>
<p>Hutchy has a habit of shooting his mouth off with his overpowering &#8216;inyaface&#8217; style of dramatic journalism and dynamic statements. Fair dinkum, Hutchy must be under pressure to find a story and as such, lo and behold, because of his premature ejaculation… &#8211; his credibility has plummeted to the pits yet again.</p>
<p>I refer of course to the debacle out at Punt Rd last week as AFL reporter, Craig Hutchison in reporting on the increasingly monotonous Richmond coaching job saga, fell for the all time sin of counting his chickens before they were hatched. Hutchy and his single minded yearn for a headline and being first to print has reinforced his cowboy, crash and bash style journalism and in doing so has probably sacrificed the real scoop and the story at hand.</p>
<p>&#8220;Terry Wallace – SACKED. Assistant coach Brian Royal – SACKED.  Jade Rawlings &#8211; NEW CARETAKER COACH&#8221; cried Hutchy.</p>
<p>All wrong.</p>
<p>How did Hutchy handle the aftermath of such a bumble?</p>
<p>He came out on channel 9’s AFL Footy Show to dig his own hole even deeper.</p>
<p><strong><em>&#8220;The more humble the apology &#8211; the greater the man&#8221; (Col Gray).</em></strong></p>
<p>Craig Hutchison had no intensions of apologizing to Wallace, Royal, Rawlings, or their families who have had to endure an arduous week. Instead, he got on his silver lined soap box and further reported on a heap of drivel involving the Richmond footy club. Hutchy’s obvious intension was to save his own skin and try to reinstate some self indulgent credibility – the kind that would have best been applied by a simple apology.</p>
<p>Hutchy chased Terry Wallace to his car,with a microphone rammed in his face, in classic ‘A Current Affair’ fashion. Wallace handled the situation with refined dignity.</p>
<p>So too, Hutchy harassed other Richmond players, Richo, Bowden, Captain Chris Newman and Mitch Morton as they left a club meeting for their cars. All players and coach handled the situation with dignity and virtually no comment which fell on deaf ears to Hutchy who claimed that they all confirmed what he had announced earlier in the week about the club in turmoil.</p>
<p>I saw no such confirmation from the Richmond footy club in Hutchy’s farcical display of headline journalism. What I did see was Hutchy clutching at straws for a story as he has done several times before.</p>
<p>Hutchy has never had an original thought in his life.</p>
<p>Many of you will recall that I first had issues with Craig Hutcheson and his reporting a couple of years ago. Hutchy on that occasion was on radio 3AW and reported a story about the Collingwood/Essendon ANZAC DAY clash He quoted facts and figures about how other teams had all had a chance at making ANZAC DAY a success before Collingwood and Essendon made the match their own. The facts and figures Hutchy quoted were virtually word for word for an article written earlier and printed in The Age newspaper, by DGES WORLD FAMOUS FOOTY TIPPING COMP tipster, Bruce Clarke from team ‘PEAR’.</p>
<p>Never once in that radio article did Hutchy reveal the source of his information or own up to the fact that he had stolen his information from another source.</p>
<p>This sooky la la who won’t sit next to Sam Newman on The Footy Show because Sam picks on him, was at it again last night on Footy Classified. Hutchy openly quoted an article written by none other than his fellow panelist, Caroline Wilson! (why he would bother with that is anyone’s guess) but it is just another example of how this leech makes his living.</p>
<p>I’m glad that Hutchy got caught out last week with his Richmond coaching job blunder and the fact that he wasn’t big enough to own up to his mistake just further proves the weak limpet he really is.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><br /><p><a href="http://dgesfootytalk.files.wordpress.com/2009/04/anzac.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-585" title="anzac" src="http://dgesfootytalk.files.wordpress.com/2009/04/anzac.jpg?w=100&#038;h=75" alt="anzac" width="100" height="75" /></a></p>
<p>So.</p>
<p>The poor ol’ other footy clubs are bleating again about their selfish &#8220;poor ol’ me&#8221; in the annual ANZAC DAY monotonous whinge. The grissling has become an annual event to be expected, synonymous with the great ANZAC DAY and commemorating football match itself.</p>
<p>Their selfish, childish complaints are the opposite of what the ANZAC DAY legacy represents. I’m sure the men and women who have paid the ultimate sacrifice for all of us and our country would never have considered selfish complaints and whinging over a football match.</p>
<p>Every year the complaints fly as Essendon and Collingwood near fill the country’s biggest capacity stadium, the MCG on the brilliantly organized ANZAC DAY clash. A match that was designed, marketed and organized by the two participating clubs 15 seasons ago. The success of the ANZAC DAY clash makes most other clubs, (usually the pathetic, pennyless clubs) cry to the mountain with the “What about me” routine.</p>
<p>This year, ANZAC DAY fell on the Saturday which provided a perfect opportunity for some of these other clubs to get together and organize their own special day for the occasion. Who knows, a successful North Melbourne v Richmond night match may have prompted the AFL to investigate holding a second commemorative yearly match on ANZAC night at Docklands Stadium.</p>
<p>But these two pathetic clubs missed the boat.</p>
<p>Let’s look at the numbers. Etihad (Docklands) Stadium has a crowd capacity of 53,359 people, yet only 29,224 bothered to turn up to the North Melbourne v Richmond clash. That is 24,135 empty seats. Just over half full under the roof of the Docklands Stadium.</p>
<p>What a disgrace – and proof that these whinging clubs should shut up about stealing the Essendon v Collingwood ANZAC DAY match. They have no idea how to run their own organization &#8211; let alone have the foresight to get together with their opponent to capitalize on a perfect opportunity to promote their own identity, capture the night ANZAC clash and make a buck in the process.</p>
<p>Essendon v Collingwood attracted 84,829 people to the second biggest football day of the year. This is on a day where this season neither side has set the world on fire with their on field performances and a day where the weather forecast was extremely bleak.</p>
<p>Let’s look at the other matches held on ANZAC DAY around the country.</p>
<p>FREMANTLE  v SYDNEY at SUBIACO 32,885 – CAPACITY 43,500 – not bad for an interstate battle.</p>
<p>HAWTHORN v WEST COAST at AURORA STADIUM 17,460  –  CAPACITY 22,000. Again not a bad effort for interstate rivals and a match played in Tasmania.</p>
<p>Richmond and North Melbourne should both lick their wounds and ponder over what might have been, had they promoted the match properly. Instead, North Melbourne president, James Brayshaw stood on his usual soap box on his Sunday TV footy show and cried about why North can’t play in the ANZAC DAY clash. He even organized a phone in poll to count the ‘Who thinks Essendon and Collingwood should have exclusive rights to the ANZAC DAY match’.</p>
<p>The results came in at 54% no and 46% yes.</p>
<p>Not a surprising result considering the biased and very persuasive editorial Brayshaw gave before the phone in. Never once did anyone mention how North Melbourne actually had their own opportunity for the day and stuffed it up.</p>
<p>For the record, the 2009 Essendon v Collingwood ANZAC DAY was as always a great success, and that success has nothing to do with the result of the match. Congratulations to the administrations of both Essendon and Collingwood for staging a great event and it is surely no coincidence that both clubs are highly successful on and off the field.</p>
<p>These other whinging clubs’ administrations would be better served to take notice of how Essendon and Collingwood manage their clubs. They should be more proactive in their own back yard rather than crying about their miserable missed opportunities.</p>

For the first time in that clubs history, they played in a game where their jumper was not the worst one on the ground&#8230;what in the hell are those knuckleheads at Port Adelaide thinking&#8230;it&#8217;s not as if they need to wear a clash jumper&#8230;how many other teams have a jumper that looks like a toilet bowl after an incontinent, diarrhoea infested person has just vacated it&#8230;congratulations and a big hurrah to the Wee &amp; Pooers&#8230;the Mighty Mayblooms, they just may have lost the title of worst jumper in VFL/AFL history award&#8230;</p>

<p>I&#8217;m surprised those fags up north haven&#8217;t cried to softcocks Demetriou and Anderson and claimed that all the camera shots of the alleged punch by Barry Hall on Staker was an optical illusion caused by the lights and camera angles and that it wasn&#8217;t Barry Hall that threw the pounch, but dual Brownlow thief Adam Goodes&#8230;at this point, the league would have dropped all charges against Hall and awarded Goodes another Brownlow so that he can now share the same first name as Bobby Skilton&#8230;Triple Brownlow Medallist. On top of that, they would have given these red &amp; white sooks more salary cap concessions to prop them up even more&#8230;just like the Brisbane Bears!!!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><br /><p><strong><em>A RANT FROM HOOTER</em></strong></p>
<p>Further to the Knobhead Journos post, Andy Mahers colleague on before the game, Sam Lane, is another to add to the list. Other than sitting there looking good and getting all oogy over every single footballer that comes on the show, even that FURC Cameron Ling, she adds absolutely no value whatsoever. She cannot string a sentence together, and as for her in depth interviewing style, I&#8217;m surprised the clubs don&#8217;t ban their players from such a gruelling interrogation&#8230;then again, what can you expect from a daughter of Tim &#8220;I won&#8217;t compromise my ethics&#8221; Lane who refused to call a Collingwood game with Eddie McKnucklehead because of a conflict of interest&#8230;have you ever heard Lane commentate a Carlton game!!!</p>
<p> And then there&#8217;s the biggest of them all&#8230;Caroline Carro &#8220;I know a shiteload about footy because my father used to be president of NPR&#8221; Wilson. This would-be-if-she-could-be bloke who comes out with all these so called scoops and then when the pressure is on, won&#8217;t name her sources is nothing more than a middle-aged know nothing goth who should crawl back to whatever dungeon she dragged herself out of&#8230;and while she&#8217;s at it, go see an orthodontist!!!</p>
