The Lazy Media

[CURLY]

Terry Wallace has taken aim at StKilda for bringing back Hannebry. Claiming he was in poor form in the games he played before hand so can't understand the risk. Hannebry was averaging 18 disposals a game. Not great numbers but in this shortened season and game time its about the mark

[Vortex]

He's just proving that he can dish up anything he likes in the media and the market will swallow it up without batting an eyelid, burp, then wipe the chops and salivate at the prospect he will keep serving up more of the same.

I'd love to be a journo in the AFL industry, it is money for jam.

Wallace and Caro Wilson are stirrers, they just weave a bit of a story just to get folks talking.

Their editors and bosses don't give a rat's *what* they say, as long as it gets a response.
It makes press conferences more interesting when another journo rehashes the garbage to a coach; then the Mango Mercenary can reference *that* exchange in a chat to his boss, to show that he *Wallace* is relevant and insightful *burp*

Do not listen to the media.

Hanners to snag two critical sausage rolls and put the saints into the finals

Hannebery has always given us something when he plays. His ball use and decision making is elite, which is something we desperately need

I fear it is going to get worse, the Asterisk Cup will have proved to the the AFL and media executives that you can replace crowds with cardboard cutouts, crowd noise with canned sound bites, TV commentators calling matchs via their laptops in different states to where the game is being played and journos feeding us stories about players without having even attend one single training session.
It's been cooky cutter content long before COVID-19 but executive management now have a proven formula for delivery of the cooky cutter content for a much cheaper cost base.

Wallace is an arsewipe. Nothing he says is of value afaic.

Agree
He was a slightly better than average footballer who got lucky and played in a great team .
He was an average coach but for some reason those in the media thought his she it didn't stink .
He then became part of the media and has delivered mostly she it ever since .

I can't stop laughing! Now for the truth.
As a player he:
Played in 3 premierships
Won 4 Best and Fairests (2 at Hawthorn and 2 at Footscray)
All Australian.
Australian Football Hall of Fame

As he coach he led the Bulldogs into the finals for 4 years.

Successful media career.

I'm more than happy to listen to his opinion.

maybe a good footballer but an ordinary bloke.

SUCCESSFUL MEDIA CAREER MEANS SFA TO ME.
