Gillon McLachlan Is A Saints Supporter!

[sax]

According to Carro!

Did everyone else know this?

4th to last paragraph.

Oh, and apparently we nearly sacked Watters!

Cue lots of relevant comments about Caros looks and dress sense.

Can someone explain to me why Caroline Wilson is the only person in the industry who seems to have the courage/audacity to write a tell-all article about what's going on at the club?

Apparently she's been on holiday the last few weeks while all these rumours, tidbits and innuendo was being whispered around and hinted to. Then she comes back and just sets it all out as it is.

Why doesn't any other reporter do this? Is it that they don't know the same information or Caro has some sort of immunity to write things no one else would dare to?

Great take! What I thought too.

Caro seems to confirm many of the strong rumours that were going around late last week. Sounds like it came close!

[Teflon]

Gee she's a hag and have you seen her latest get up?

That out of the way....

More fluff - spruiks the AFL constantly rejected intervening at St Kilda and follows with a gem "but Gill McLaughlin supports St Kilda" - who cares you utter social gimp??? What is the excuse for this pathetic attempt to link 2 nothing's to make a nothing...

[Iceman234]

Yep confirmed, he's as one-eyed as any of us. Loves the Saints.

[Con Gorozidis]

My only concern is wtf is with our clubs obsession with wasting time trying to poach contracted eagles ?
First Mitch Brown now T Nisbett.
Saints - have you heard of a thing called a contract.
Stop wasting your time and go for the best available.

[Cairnsman]

Surely, I mean surely most people that can read can tell that Caro has just dressed up second hand news to make it sound exclusive and believable. ..surely.

[borderbarry]

I wonder if T.Nesbit is related to Des Nesbit, an old Saint from wayback.

[fingers]

Great GMc is a Saints supporter but this paragraph,

"The AFL has continually denied that it is on the verge of intervening at St Kilda, although the league's deputy chief executive, Gillon McLachlan, is a Saints supporter and a friend of football director Thompson."

...is meaningless. It says nothing. Presents no insight. Nothing.

[savatage]

Caro tweeted a well know online Saints supporter the other day (who seems fairly well connected) asking if he had any negative news on the Saints to report to her.

She loves it!

It was allegedly the real Caroline Wilson according to this person - but who knows. They may not be aware of this mock page.

She can do it because there's someone from the club leaking like a sieve. It's easy to do when it's served up on a platter.

Exactly but no one wants to admit it. we look for fault outside the club. About time we found out who leaks all this crap. is it the disgruntaled older players or Netters or SW manager or Pelchan or the unhappy assistant coaches. I know people think the papers make things up but it doesnt help when the president says there was plenty of tension between the 2 guys in charge. Anyway I blame that ugly girl Caro. What would she know she is a girl for a start.

Surely if there is one thing we have learned in the past few weeks before jumping to conclusion is to question EVERYTHING that is reported in the media regarding the Saints. Surely we have learnt that.

Apart from the Nisbett claim in that report there is absolutely nothing new and even then the Nisbett claim is unsubstantiated as yet.

Must just all be co incidence. There are issues at our club. We knew that at the start of the year when senior players had issues with the coach. They can be sorted out though. maybe every club has issues. Our problem is it gets in the media all the time because someone at the club is telling the media. find that out and it may help settle the club down.

As I say with the exception of the Nisbett claim there rest of the article is just a fluff piece to counter the News Ltd articles the day before and is mostly built up by adding fat to existing media speculation, innuendo, wild assertion and illusion.

Yep reporters just do that and then she made something up about Nesbitt to be different. It makes sense. There are no issues at our club at all. Certainly no one is leaking anything. By the way I believe in santa.

[dragit]

I like this bit…

The AFL has continually denied that it is on the verge of intervening at St Kilda

Could it be that they are not on the verge of intervening Caro?



Reminds me of "Saints block Stanley trade"

You didn't read my post properly. Is that maybe because you are trying to stir the pot. What is it with you drunks.

It is a bit weird isn't it?

She tells it the way she sees or and potentially the way it is, yet is the journo that cops it relentlessly.

In the end the footy media is entertainment about football. Therefore it is entertainment about entertainment.

Most would have clicked on the article and read it, her job is done.

I take it you have no ability to discuss things without getting personal. calling me a drunk is pretty classy. Either discuss it properly or stop with that rubbish. Its pathetic. Im not trying to stir up anything. it must be obvious to just about everyone that we have someone leaking this crap to the media and there are problems at the saints that can be fixed.

Absolutely! Oldest journo trick in the book. I can keep putting a question like Caro probably has to Someone like Andrew D. knowing full well that that the response will be either a denial or a "no comment" because that's what professional CEOs do and then Caro has created her own little innuendo packaged up as a deliberate and sneaky attempt to mislead the readers. Hilarious...but they just keep rolling this type of stuff out.
