Re: Cousin's relapse claims - what is Ricky doing?
Players agents should butt out of media
Mike Sheahan - Herald Sun - 8 April
THE blatant conflict for AFL player agents who moonlight in the media first became evident when Ricky Nixon worked weekends for Triple M as an around-the-grounds man.
Given he managed the cream of the player group back then, one or two of whom had a propensity to create headlines, and given Triple M had a rich best-player award, Ray Charles could have spotted his conflict of interest.
Nixon lived with the cynicism for a while before walking away and saving himself the trouble.
We have learned to live with agent conflict in recent years, but Ricky Olarenshaw's extraordinary boot-in-mouth performance on radio on Tuesday has put the issue back on the agenda.
