Messages for Robert Walls, to be printed & shoved.

Oh happy day! That festering cabbage Robert Walls has finally written his last column for The Age, possibly because they insisted that he use a computer instead of crayons.

Any messages for him before they ship him off to the nursing home? That he ever achieved anything of note in this sport shows just how far the game has come.

didnt he pick Ross Lyon for us that made us almost win two grand finals?

Yes. he was on the selection panel in 06 and advocated for the selection of Rosco. Also screwed us by acting as his media mouthpiece throughout 2011.

Robert Walls had a conflict of interest.

Ross Lyon, has taken his teams to four gf's in 7 years. A gr....sorry, sorry...a good coach.

Say what you like about him, but he was brilliant at Fitzroy as a coach. Was the first coach ever to devise tactics at kick outs. I recall numerous times in 1981 Fitzroy going coast to coast because they had an entire wing of the ground isolated with one single player. Can be a knob and state the obvious in the media, but I think he's just a very hard man all round, which gets ppl off side.

I hold no grudge against Mr. Walls. He has his views, and I don't always agree with them.

[jonesy]

I like him

[thejiggingsaint]

Thug footballer, failed coach, and even worse as a media performer.

you just made my day.......one of my fondest memories at the footy was seeing that dropkick sniper being carried off on a stretcher after barry lawrence ironed him out....

Both as a footballer and a coach.

Bit of a weather vain, but cant understand all this small minded hate tossed about by some.

Really a bit of perspective would be welcome.

I actually quite like him.
He has an opinion on things.
While I don't necessarily agree with him at least he has the guts to state his opinion unlike the majority of media commentators.
Most people in the media straddle the fence so much they must struggle to walk normally.
