Some of us know why you do not shirk at any opportunity to bag GT however the show is good, scripted or not.

You might be happy, but im not. One of the few who would actually speak what he wants and isint afraid of getting on the AFL's bad side.

Have you noticed no matter what the issue is he always goes against the AFL? That's called bias and having an agenda driver point of view.

I prefer balanced people and balanced views. Not personally driver vendetta bullsh1t.

@3AWisfootball: Lloydy says that speaking strong football topics is his strength so he will speak to Ch 9 about replacing Thomas on Footy Classified.

That would be terrible.

Too much footy blah as it is. Couldn't give a rats if the show followed suit to be frank


"The inches we need are everywhere around us. They're in every break in the game. Every minute, every second. On this team we fight for that inch. On this team we tear ourselves and everyone around us to pieces for that inch. We claw with our fingernails for that inch. Because we know when we add up all those inches that's gonna make the f***in' difference between winning and losing! Between living and dying!'

Thomas may have had his faults, but nobody is perfect. The perfect coach does not exist. To be a coach, or a CEO or another type of leader, you need a vision and firm belief in that vision.
Thomo was great to watch on that show as he had strong opinions and for some people, was a great foil for all the sycophants who worshipped Fat Andy, as well as morons like Darcy, B Taylor and current players who speak like politicians.
Very sad to see him go. Breath of fresh air.

My thoughts exactly, but I think he has too much past garbage.....


And the president said " I did not have sex with that woman"
And our former president said " Football is like golf" 

If 9 want to get AFL TV rights they had to ditch GT at some stage.

Or Grant had had enough of what CH 9 demanded of him on his weekly Footy Classified gig...maybe he'd had enough of working with a wanker like Hutchy or a female self satisfier :shock: like Caroline.... :lol:

he may have decided Gary Lyon had no credibility due to Melbourne still being a basket case with a crap list......maybe Butters or Archie scored a job at CH 9...who knows. :roll:


How many defenders will The Saints pick in the 2024 draft ? :lol:

And they would do it 4 years before they are up again. That makes real sense. He quit. it is that simple.

I agree. Sad to see him go. He is unique and fearless and as far as I am aware the only footy person who can stand up and proudly declare "I AIN'T A YES MAN"........

Now lets see. We are supposed to beleive the over opinionated Gt has lied about quiting so that channel 9 get the rights in 4 years time. The same guy who doesnt seem to give a stuff about the AFL in now saying lies to help 9 and the AFL. Yep now I have heard it all.
