I have just been wandering around Myer, Karrinyup and I saw a book about Collingwood. Not a very big stack of books on sale, which is a fair indication of the sales potential. Sorry I digressed. The book is written by Michael Roberts!!!! Surely it is not the same Michael Roberts of St Kilda fame. Has he turned?

Iit's ok Westy - it is a DIFFERANT Michael Roberts- this one is the Collingwood Historian.

No it's not the No.10 son of the Brownlow No.10

I couldn't imagine Robbo writing a book about the Filth. I'm pretty sure he has no connection, unless he befriend McGuire through channel 9.

I'm suprised they never kepy him as a sports reporter. He seemed like a decent journo.

I always found it funny seeing him as a male model on Sale of the Century when I was a kid

Ironically, Collingwood did dangle big money in front of Robbo to leave at one point. He resisted

Me too. I think good old Tony Barber acknowledged him.

Write a book about the skunks and the morons will go without a feed to buy it ..it will always make money no matter how pathetic the read is.
Which gives me an Idea, I may just publish one bagging the living bejeesus out of the morons , by the time they realize their mistake I will be rolling in it

I was in the DVD store and saw a movie called "Liar Liar" , I thought it was a Mick Malthouse biography ?

the title made think something terrible happened like MR ran out of bleach or there was photographic evidence being passed around on the social networks of MR laying a tackle.
