When Peter Roebuck passed someone on here made the comment that football lacks a quintessential writer. I believe Flanagan is that writer.

Yeah, I agree. Flanagan went up his own arse a bit though a few years back (only slightly), but he seems to have come back to earth a little these past two or three years.

As and aside, I do miss Roebuck's geekiness, and I think it's been missed these past two summers as a counter to the blokey crap you get in cricket these days.

I miss Roebuck's writing and articulate radio, but given what we know now I do not miss him.

So, was Luke Beveridge.....an eker? ;)
I like his observations of other coaches. Wonder how he will feel playing St Kilda this week?

Luke is a very emotional guy. I like that. An ex doggies player too just tops him of.
