Rumours and Stuff

I think the other poddy with that Adam guy are advertising a similar interview, question time with Jim. Looks like he's doing the rounds.

Jim’s mowing is in damage control. He’s turned us into the laughing stock of the league because he knows shit about footy. That what happens when you give the job to an admin clerk.

Both podcasts are sponsored by the leagues club. So they won’t ask the hard questions regarding mismanagement and poor recruitment. They won’t ask him why he should retain his job because of his failed management and poor decisions.

it’s obvious Jim’s mowing is too scared to be quizzed by actual journalists so he’s gone to the backyarders that the Leagues club sponsors to spin shit. They are not independent.

If you look at Talkin Parra Facebook page, the questions are hard hitting and to the point.There are some in response to the TCT on Twitter/X and for some reason they are more motherhood statements seeking a meh reply.

Wonder which questions will get picked, can’t see the ones relating to HOF and recruitment failures getting much of a look. Hope to be wrong, but access is important to their blogs , so not confident that they will cross examine Sarantinos as most would like and expect.

In how many businesses do the customers get to grill the CEO?

I’m honestly amazed you think there is any genuine nature of those interviews. When did these fans suddenly hold influence..?

The guys that run that page look like they’ve been bullied their whole life. They are desperate to be relevant and are just pubeless fan boys.

Don’t hold your breath.

I really have no idea why there has to be such toxicity in this fan base. we all support the same club. If you don’t like their podcast, don’t listen to it…. Why the need for personal snide remarks -often about people’s appearances ??

It’s such childish bullshit

Toxicity? That’s a big word!

I don’t follow them nor listen to them but the things coming into my socials feed is nothing short of embarrassing.

These are the same wankers that tried to stage a turning of the back to the field at a certain time in protest and a bunch of other embarrassing ideas. Now you are trying to tell me I should respect them because they have been given some access?

They are having a go, yes. This does not mean I need to respect them. I don’t believe they help the club at all. In fact, I’m embarrassed at any connotation they represent me.

When did people get so precious about criticism?

What makes me sick to the stomach is that it’s not even July and we’re already done—no finals, no hope, nothing. It’s an utter f**king disgrace, and the worst part is no one’s being held accountable. Heads need to roll for this.

And if we come last I don’t care what anyone says it’s semi finals minimum next season or we do another reset.

For me the worst part is that Brown has been gone fo months now and no replacement plus we haven't signed anyone of note this season for next year to give us something to look forward to.

Pretty sure a general level of respect and decency is a human right unless someone has done something personally to hurt you.

Nevertheless, I didn’t even raise respect in my post - I questioned the need to make criticism personal - play the issue, not the person.

“their podcast is garbage”, “they side with the club too much”, “they are too positive/negative” are all relative and reasonable comments.

“they look like people that get bullied”, “they are pubeless fan boys” or as I’ve seen comments about the TCT guys “they are fat and stupid” - are personal attacks with no necessity.

we have a mental Heath thread in here which I think is great, but it’s utter garbage to be supportive of people in there or share personal experiences of hardship and then on another thread just take pot shots at peoples appearances and personalities who you’ve never even met. Publicly criticising someone’s appearance is the definition of online bullying - and they are not even here to defend themselves or retaliate.
I teach my son to call out shit behaviour when he see’s it - I would be hypocritical to not do the same myself.

The bullied bit and calling them fat is irrelevant and uncalled for but anything else is open slather as far as I’m concerned.

3 missed finals in a row, how does the HOF and his staff still have a job??? Beach wants to be the chairman time for him to make some important decisions.
