Re: Daisy in strife Reply #4 – May 28, 2019, 07:51:54 am Judd is reported to have said there was nothing in it, Daisy had a wine with dinner at a charity function and has no case to answer.Here is an opportunity to unify the club and players, lets see if the executive is smart enough to stick fat!
Re: Daisy in strife Reply #5 – May 28, 2019, 08:26:11 am I watched FC last night - it was Caros big scoop last night ?really there wasn’t much in it. Daisy’s said he had 2 drinks and Hutchi was shocked 2 days before a game a player would drink and Judd said he might’ve had a wine over dinner bla bla bla. The ‘‘altercation’ didn’t have much substance either - something about a spilled drink. Woopydo!I think Lloyd or Hutchi said to Judd ‘Daisy wouldn’t play, he’d get suspended?’ And Judd just stared them down, said they don’t even have the full story. If nothing else, Judd is extremely good at stopping questioning in its tracks, just by glaring ?

It's depressing to think that Caro was once a decent journalist. Just like On The Couch and plenty of others, toeing the Murdoch Party Line is obviously a requirement - go low, go hard and go often.
Re: Daisy in strife Reply #9 – May 28, 2019, 09:26:50 am My biggest criticism of Caro is that she never comments on actual football. Its always the negative, behind the scenes stuff. She is the Football equivalent of the gotcha paparazzi.

He went to stop the discussion and said lets gather all the facts before we go too far.

What an upstanding contributor to society. Every $ in the charity bucket aims to support those in need.Pretty sure the 'actual' story could go something like that. The rest is uneventful. Move on if that's possible. Imagine what garbage the supposed scoop would have been without Juddys intellectual prowess. Joke

Just like On The Couch and plenty of others, toeing the Murdoch Party Line is obviously a requirement - go low, go hard and go often.How many times have they received similar info about Dusty and said nothing, even in his premiership year?You'd think in a year where Dusty was in the hunt for a flag it was an even bigger sin, not a forgivable offense, but it got crickets from Caro and the AFL media!Caro and Hunchy excel at kicking people in the gutter, nothing more and nothing less!In some respects this issue will blow up because Judd shows some inexperience, he should not have made a value judgment on air! That's all you will hear now for the next 24/48 hours! Last Edit: May 28, 2019, 11:14:02 am by LP

That's all you will hear now for the next 24/48 hours!I tend to agree. I think that comment about "failed the stupidity test" is a very poor phrase, and feels almost like throwing Daisy under a bus. That's precisely the sort of thing that starts the process of dividing clubs. One thing I've never liked about Judd is that he keeps things at arms length, a certain aloofness. You never really feel like he's one of the troops. IMO, the best media performer at our club is Bolton. Followed by Silvagni (not polished, but won't be bullied or steamrolled) followed by Judd, then Lloyd and the Judge. Liddle I haven't heard enough of.
Re: Daisy in strife Reply #14 – May 28, 2019, 06:30:43 pm Maybe I'm naive, but I can't see how this is a story if all he did was have a couple of glasses of wine and spilt some blokes drink? Si there more that we don't know about?
