it's mainly the reference to our other players i'm pissed off about...they were never charged...different folks...different strokes afaic.....perfectionist wrote:Tim Lane's last point is:
If Lovett is found not guilty of the charge, the Saints may have to defend themselves against a torrent of criticism.
Which is true, but not, I suspect, from Saints Supporters who are (mostly) glad that the issue of his playing future at the club is settled.

Tim Lane nor his Daughter has never had anything complementary to say regarding St Kilda be it on TV or in the Age.
I'm seriously thinking of cancelling the subscription to the Age. it barely gets unwraped from the plastic these days when its delivered. Its not the paper it once was. Its only good for lighting the fire

Tim Lane is paid by his employer to write opinion stories.
He has the choice to write well researched stories backed up by facts, or write stories based on based on innuendo and guess work. He chose the latter.
It is very easy to judge things that have happened in the past with today’s standards.
Brain Waldron basically said on SEN on Friday that he was happy how they handled the Milne and Montagna situation, but did say that if it happened today they would probably would have suspended them. If someone has a better memory of the discussion on SEN, please correct me.

when you judge someone,
You don't define them,
You define yourself.

TIm Lane needs to start listening back to some of his calls of Carlton games..and wake up that his bias is close to Eddie-esque now. Just one example from last night. Brad Fisher (I think) grabs the ball, runs 3-4 steps, takes on 3 Sydney opponents, gets tackled, drops the ball and gets pinged.

Though we say that the charge had nothing to with it, I think it may, but we can't say that due to the impending court case.
One of the important factors to this case is that one of our players is a witness to the case and it may be that his evidence is pretty damning.
Also, it is my belief with sexual assault cases, Police won't lay charges unless they are pretty confident of getting a conviction.

Except for the sanity nothing much has been lost.

I heard him talking bout another Carlton player involved in an unsightly incident...when the other commentators went to talk about it....Tim buts in and says "weve done that to death havent we?"
I mean....had it been St Kilda....Tim would be whingeing bout it all night long.
He really is a poor mans Commetti, without the wit or insight to the game - IMHO he belongs on ABC in another era. Adds nothing to the call and delivers absolutely NO excitement value during a game.
It is time networks updated - I mean Tim Lane, Sandy Robert FFS, EVEN Bruce IMO is now looking ridiculous not to mention Walls (cliche king) and Blight (watch me try to be left of centre.....)
“Yeah….nah””
He should stick to calling cricket these days I reckon.Teflon wrote:Yep it is glaringly obvious isnt it?saint66au wrote:TIm Lane needs to start listening back to some of his calls of Carlton games..and wake up that his bias is close to Eddie-esque now.

Channel 10 I reckon run a distant 3rd to Channel's 9 and 7 in regards to football coverage over the last 5 or so years.
Going back to the days of Daicos as special comments etc, painful.
Watching it last night it was painful with Lane and Walls trying to talk up an insipid forward line without Fevola.Teflon wrote:Yep it is glaringly obvious isnt it?saint66au wrote:TIm Lane needs to start listening back to some of his calls of Carlton games..and wake up that his bias is close to Eddie-esque now.

As for the article, says nothing that hasn't already been done to death.
perhaps the Saints should have gone down the Carlton path by paying off the alleged victim of rape, I mean that type of behaviour has culminated in the putrid culture now quite apparant at his favourite club.
With the culture at Carlton already affecting McLean with his disgusting show of respect and poor sportsmanship to Kirk, Lane tries to stop the conversation with, "we have done it to death". I thought the exact same thing as Teflon, anyone else and he would have gone on about it all night.
Lane is no longer respected by the football community, a poor writer, commentator, and worst of all biased as Eddie could ever be.
Lance or James??
There comes a point in every man's life when he has to say, "Enough is enough." For me, that time is now. I have been dealing with claims that I cheated and had an unfair advantage in <redacted>. Over the past three years, I have been subjected to a <redacted>investigation followed by <redacted> witch hunt. The toll this has taken on my family, and my work for <redacted>and on me leads me to where I am today – finished with this nonsense. (Oops just got a spontaneous errection <unredacted>)

Tim Lane is cringe wirthy in the extreme. Questions decisions that are blatant free kicks and have been for 150 years, tries to be funny and is as funny as a busted arsehole, and his bias is sickening. He seriously, actually, has NO clue. The only commentator that makes me wnat to punch the TV> Deplorable, can we get him sacked? Is there a anti facespew page for ole frog head? If Hutchy has one ....

i don't see how a rational person can bring the Milne & Monty saga into this.
You can't paint all sexual assualts under the 1 brush
I never found out exactly what was inferred that M&M did, but I'm pretty sure it wasn't rape and I got the impression the club felt they hadn't done the wrong thing right off the bat
