Damien Barrett what's his agenda ?

Pravda? Really?

Yep. That is until he disagreed with the choice of vodka served in the tea room.

Now he writes for a similar regime- AFL website

How good does that sound. Four goals in a half to help win a prelim. Will always be a bulldogs legend young Smith

[EasternWest]

I read the H/S most days but the Age is no longer worth the money they want for it so I rarely read that.

Statement does not compute.

[AshMac]

this says it all IMO...

North Melbourne
IF: you want to have a crack at this club for targeting big names who ultimately say no ...
THEN: go your hardest. But at least it's having a crack and still getting significant deals done.

And in the same article:

Western Bulldogs
IF: good players want to leave and other good players don't want to come ...
THEN: there's probably something in that.

He is a Kangas fan.

Well he's not wrong I guess.

I know he gets everyone(or almost everyone) triggered around here but we don't attract anyone good and there has been quite a few leave over the last few seasons.

That’s a complete fallacy. 5 changes a year is the least you can do for a start and the year we lost our so called big names we won a flag two years later. Don’t get big names for the sake of getting them, recruit a team that will gel and get the right mind set and game plan that suits . I am dumbfound why Richmond has got Lynch, also Hawks trading away Burton ( if its the case) could do more damage to the Hawks than making the hawks a better side with Wingard.
History has proved if you trade out a player who is popular loved and respected it can destroy a club.

Perfect example of how unprofessional he is, he doesn’t think how he contradicts himself, how much he has made it known he supports the kangas and hates us in 4 sentences.

[Murphy'sLore]

Petty I know, but it really irritates me that he uses "having a crack" in a negative sense in the first half and then again as a positive in the second half of the statement. You work with words, mate, be a bit creative with your craft.

Players are just so overrated this time of the year. Aaron Hall is at best flakey and Pittard is dime a dozen . They overpaid for Polec , who is decent , but not at that price . They’re travelling 1 from 10 in bringing in names . Dahlhaus has fallen off the cliff , and Adams is way to injury prone . I know it’s unfashionable this time of year, but trust the draft

This thread is pointless I think. His job is to get emotional responses and create discussion which he is clearly doing well. Hutchy likes the American way of creating something from nothing and stirring the hornests nest with contrived conflict and controversy. Barrett is his star pupil. Kane Cornes his latest protege. Rise above Woofers !

It's basically become a Barrett Blog. As much as Ledge and others say they don't like him, his every word on the weekly sliding doors thread will be challenged and bagged here. It's actually exactly what Barrett wants.

Unfortunately, it appears to have had a similar effect on the coach ... speaking of rising above it.

Yep, Bevo needs to walk away as well.
