Footy Classified 25th May

Now I dont normally watch this show, but hey it was on and I was up so well thought I would have a look.
Now did anyone catch this?. Caroline Wilson was in pretty good form, she attacked Brenden Gale pretty hard. Basically accused him of all the worlds problems right then and there. Pretty much accused him of removing past coaches at Richmond when he was playing, also basically said his was doing a bad job as CEO of the AFLPA. He fired back in the best possible way, and in the end his ability to answer the questions/attacks from her majesty was very professional. I take my hat of to him.
At least Grant Thomas added some humour in the situation, I know I wouldnt believe it if I didnt see it with my own eyes.
Also I cant believe how Craig Hutchinson is carrying on about the Richmone thing. He really is doing his best to blow this out and cause problems. Obviously there is a set of issues there, and well some are try and some well....not great. Apparently Jake King is saying he wasnt even at the club that day and not impressed by this.
Anyway I would be interested to hear what other people who watch it week to week as this was my opinion from a first viewing.

Hutchy is vermen of the highest order. No integrity, how does he get away with this. I know it catches the attention of the public, but surely have someone who can do the job with accountability and credibility. Both of which, he has zero. Caroline Wilson, combined with Hutchy have no respect within the football fraternity, not only have they never played the game, but all they do is launch unsubstantiated, personal attacks on those under the hammer. Yet they run their own show. Work that one out.

I refuse to watch it, it's absolute tripe.

'One week at a time' on OneHD, is a top show. Highlights issues from the weekends play, but unlike Footy classifieds, all the action is from the actual game. Not behind the scenes rubbish involving the coach, CEO, and other muppets.

Spot on ... One Week at a Time absolutely creams the dribble from Ch9.

What I'd like to see is someone take Hutchy to court for defamation, because his comments are usually without fact and are just innuendo.

Even better, someone in the media should stalk Hutchy in the back alleys like he does ... where's John Saffron when you need him?

Now there's an idea for a show.

"Hey Hutchy, what did you have for breakfast?"

Maybe a task for the Chaser boys?

However, I doubt that they'd waste their time on such a pathetic journalist anyway....

His segment on the Footy Show is absolute crap - he takes himself and his "breaking news" so seriously that you'd think he was breaking news that Australia was about to be invaded by North Korea, not some bullsh*t about what a club president, doctor or CEO said!

Never a truer word spoken ... I truly loathe Hutchinson and hate the one sided argument Channel 9 continues to provide the platform for (he killed the Footy Show last week too).

Wilson is happy to hasten the downfall of career among players, coaches and admin alike, but when anyone returns fire she whinges like a cut snake

Caroline Wilson rarely says anything on that show that is remotely interesting.

When it is interesting it's likely she is just quoting someone else anyway. Waste of space.
