Re: Damien Barrett what's his agenda ?
I've been told that Greg Denham doesnt bother going to the football either GS. Another journo told me that he might go to a game every couple of years.
They say Burt Lancaster has one, but I don't believe them.

Fasalo has come out already and dismissed Barretts claim that he has asked to traded.

I look forward to Barrett coming out and saying that Fasolo is a liar
I should leave it alone but you're not right

Re: Damien Barrett what's his agenda ?
A little birdy told me a chief football reporter ( rather portly type)
Rocked up to the Geelong Hawthorn final a little tired and emotional lets say.
Everyone in the assembled press area got a good look at what he'd had for lunch!
Had it get somebody else to write on the game, as he was thrown into a cab to go home.

He was just on the radio saying he was in the Hawthorn rooms after the game so I don't know how correct that is.

I think Remi was talking about the Geelong/Hawks QF match, not the GF.

D'oh! You're right.
It's partly Remi's fault that I got it wrong.

Re: Damien Barrett what's his agenda ?
Absolutely sick of Damian Barrett and his vendetta against Bevo and the Bulldogs in general.
His stupid column on the AFL site "Sliding doors", has something against us every week, and usually involving Tom Boyd and his salary, or Bevo and Talia. WTF is his problem
This week:
Also during the week he had another go at Peter Gordon and the signing of Tom Boyd:
He is an absolute slime bag.

Re: Damien Barrett what's his agenda ?
Pathetic excuse for a human being.
Whoever employs him should be ashamed of themselves. No credibility whatsoever. Unfortunately, and i have no idea why, his tripe reporting keeps him in a job.

He's the AFL media's version of a TMZ papparazi style journalist.

Re: Damien Barrett what's his agenda ?
I hate the guy as much as the next person but the awful sliding doors column he writes he's been pretty positive about us in recent weeks. Boyd's contract will always be a talking point but after this season (Rumored to be frontloaded at $1.8M+) it's pretty much a standard big player contract.

Re: Damien Barrett what's his agenda ?
He's just a self righteousness douche that has nothing else to slag us with and hates Bevo because he won't play the game.

This is his MO:
Week A: praise Bont or Stringer
Week B: slag Boyd
Rinse and repeat.

Re: Damien Barrett what's his agenda ?
It is a fixation, no doubt about it. His other fixation is Nathan Buckley, as he is a Malthouse admirer - as a result you won't see him overly praising Bolton or Carlton in 2016 as it makes his boy Mick look bad.
Every journo has a couple of fixations and easy targets they draw on to justify their roles and keep the column inches flowing - Scully and Tippett copped it pretty mercilessly early on in their long term contracts. Even Barrett will shut up when Boydy starts to deliver at senior level on a consistent basis.

Re: Damien Barrett what's his agenda ?
When boyd comes good and his wage is down to 500,000 because we front loaded then what's his MO?
Bring back the biff
