Re: caro
You guys just don't get it. She has NEVER pretended to be anything other than what she is. If you want to read an article on an up and coming player (who would other than the supporters of that team?) then great, read one of Emma Quale's articles. If you want in depth analysis of why the game was won, read an ex coach do a guest spot in a paper or watch one of the 1000's of footy shows that are on each week.
She writes about the mechanics/politics of footy clubs. She reported on Chips AND Swan because a) it was relevent to the discussion at that time re Pert complaining about the rampant use of illicit drugs amongst players in the off-season. b) If the situation has got to the point that the players footy club has had a word with the said player then it's definitely relevant, for us the supporters.
I'm tipping she knew about this stuff for awhile but it wasn't relevant to anything, so it wasn't reported.
The interesting thing is neither the saints nor the pies exactly expressed outrage about the article - why do you think Swan did that interview the other night? They probably weren't rapt with it hitting the public domain, but so what?
It's actually quite hilarious reading page after page on this site of conspiracy theories re the AFL and every other club bar ours always in the wrong and always cheating and lying, but if any of our boys are accused of anything untoward we treat the story as absolute garbage and ridicule any person who could possibly give it a shred of credibility. The about face many on here had on Lyon and BJ and Ball is incredible once they left our club. I mean one minute they are the Messiah, the next minute they are the lowest of the low. Why then would it be expected that ppl that subscibe to this site be expected to objectively read a critical article on one of our players and accept that there may be a hint of truth about it?
Caro is hated because of numerous things 1) she's a woman writing about a man's sport 2) She refuses to tow the company line and doesn't care who she upsets along the way 3) She's perceived to not know her stuff because she doesn't write in depth footy articles or fluff pieces on up and coming players 4) She's middle aged and not all that attractive
About the only thing in footy easier to have a go at is the umpires. It's so cliched and boring to listen to people bag her. It's funny that all supporters from all clubs appear to hate her though - would that be because she gives no-one any favours? Tiger supporters claim she's harder on them than anyone....

Re: caro
1. She IS NOT harder on Tigers than anyone else and that is utter cr@p - are you her brother?
2. She is the Chief FOOTBALL writer for The Age .....but doesn't write about football......
3. You ASS-UME the "oh she's a girl you hater her"......you want clichéd??? trot out that feminist bullshyte
4. She is ugly.
Spare me the "she isn't saints so u hate her" rubbish - some just don't like her on the merits of what she puts forward with much innuendo as "fact" when clearly often its just rumour.

Re: caro
I have no problem with Wilson.
However as the father of 3 girls in their mid 20s, Sam Fisher would have been one of the first AFL player I would have liked to see them with!
Maybe you can't judge a book by it's cover

How do you know the Fisher article wasn't justified?
Or is it because you are a Saints supporter that you consider it one of her sins?

Re: caro
See Caro go nuts tonight on footy classified?
Bombers are toast. Even Lloydy agreed. Im now almost certain - as in 90% sure - the Bombers are the page 17 team.
25-30 players were getting 2 peptide injections at the botox clinic every week.
This is a known known now.
Massive strife they are in and Watson's Brownlow is seriously rotten.
Hird, Thompson and Evans are absolutely gone.
Bad luck BJ.

Evans and Hird wont go. Robson will go and maybe Thompson. Hopefully Watson didnt take anything illegal and keeps the brownlow. There big hope is you do go early Con.
And Caro is ok. Dont see the point of getting upset with someone you obviouisly wouldnt read if you dislike her that much.

Re: caro
I dont know why Caro continues on Footy Classified with the treatment she gets from her compatriots. Gary Lyon jumps all over her every night, when she dares to say something he disagrees with. I dont mind Caro. At least she has guts and does not back down to the bullying she receives.

Re: caro
I personally don't like the comments about Caro's gender and her looks... got nothing to do with anything about from the mindset of people who are making those comments. And I appreciate that often seems to have good sources, is opinionated and creates talking points. HOWEVER, what I don't like is how she clearly is so Richmond biased. It's my opinion that part of the reason that she has gone off at Swan and Fisher is because she expects that a certain Richmond young gun may end up in the soup and she wants to be able to defend him by pointing out those two and hoping that any sanction on the Richmond player is diluted.
Hird... The unflushable one is now... just a turd...

and for the record..she players the gender card most weeks....can't count the number of times she calls a club or organisation a"boys club"....
