Anyone hear MMM footy with luke hodge talking to Damo about his sliding doors column? Hodgy made him sound like the inaccurate headline chasing imbecile he is. Priceless

Life is too short to be consumed by that sort of hate. If I were you, and was triggered by their views, I'd avoid them going forward.

I get that everyone is very bouyant about the way the team is playing right now but we did make a mistake on DH. I'm still happy to have him on our list, but not on the bizarre terms we took him on.

Sliding Doors this week.
If
The Saints are on top of the ladder
Then
I’ll just mention Hannebery again. Cos that’s all I’ve got.

Saints have said that Hanners had four medicals.
I would believe them over a deadset dropkick like Barrett.

Re: Barrett, always the saints hater.
Eh? WTF do we need evidence? The burden of proof sits clearly on the head of the f****** moron that made the claim! If you get your panties in a bunch every time someone questions this idiot, then I suggest that you take your own advice and not read anything that upsets you so much. Surely there is a damian barrett fan forum where you can hang and buy merch. Or did they send you here?evertonfc wrote: ↑Sat 20 Apr 2019 7:37pmEh? Where was the evidence that it was done?

Re: Barrett, always the saints hater.
He's just a headline hunter. He's hardly a journalist. He's just a mud flinger who makes a living from a mix of acusations, finger ponting and innuendo and waits to see what sticks. Bottom feeder.

Probably the post most further from the truth in this whole forum.
Really don't know why? Maybe because they are very good. Hutchy isn't even a journalist these days, rather a media business owner.
Oh but this stems from something they wrote that you didn't like? Makes sense.
Re: Barrett. I don't like him too much either, but I read everything he writes and take notes on everything he says. Why? Because clubs talk to him. He has regular blues with coaches - Luke Beverage being the famous one - but that's because he stands his ground.
I dunno...I reckon AFL media is soft as butter and here's somebody who is prepared to call stuff out. He was bang on with the Hannebery story; I'm not sure why we are defending it.
Clearly, Barrett has some issues with our club, but FMD, we've won about 3 games in 8 years...I can live with him asking some pertinent questions when it's clear that literally nobody else in the industry will.
And as always, if you don't like his stuff, why would you read his column or download his podcast?! FWIW, Sounding Board is the best AFL industry pod by a mile.

I listened to it live yesterday and it was as good a slap down as any with very little push back from Barrett. When he did he was put back in his place.magnifisaint wrote: ↑Sun 21 Apr 2019 9:15am Looks like this idiot was placed back in his box. So much for being ‘the best in the business’

His sliding doors article was an attack on Hodgy's character and based on zero facts.
At the end of the day, Barrett gets paid to attract eyeballs, accuracy has nothing to do with, its about selling advertising space. He used innuendo to hide lack of facts and legal proceedings. Its the people that read it as fact that makes me shake my head. Bit like the Truth newspaper ( back in the day!)

Re: Barrett, always the saints hater.
Can't stand Barret and the majority of footy followers are the same but he doesn't deserve this much air time on a great forum. The dude is a liar, thief and mischievous twat.
Posters that have admitted they were wrong about Hanna's gastro and the club didn't create a cover story.

Unless you have proof this claim is libelous and for the good of the site I suggest you remove it.
And you state the majority of footy followers, where do you gather this data? Big Footballer?

Barrett suggested Hodges' mid game interviews were paid media gigs as part of a contract with channel 7- proven to be an inaccurate lie
Barrett stated Hodge wouldn't have gotten away with at Hawthorn - proven to be inaccurate - as Hodge said, he wore a microphone for a whole game with the hawks because he was told to.
Barrett stated that it was all about Hodge - As hodge said, in a non AFL state, the club and AFL HQ do whatever they possibly can to get media exposure to promote the game.
So if telling untruths about a player of Luke Hodges standing, to benefit your own cause i.e. trying to stay relevant in the media, then you should expect to wear tags like liar and mischievous.
Dont know about the thief part, but that wouldnt surprise me.
Not sure why anyone would defend parasites like Barrett, they prey on causing grief for others.
