Thanks Geoff. It’s actually sad that guys like Cornes have to resort to that rubbish to get attention. The fact of the matter is that he – like many others – simply don’t have the ability to gain attention any other way. Being well researched and measured would make all the difference but i cant see that happening.
Time to hold the AFL media to account
I’m curious. How is Goodes himself running the risk of being the forgotton man? Secondly, the fact that he may get more public plaudits if he lived in Melbourne is perhaps true, but with 2 Brownlows around his neck, I doubt anyone would say he’s not an all time great.
Where does Adam Goodes stand among the game's greats?
Absolutely agree. There are some who are exceptionally good. Sadly, Emma Quayle was lost to GWS but she was far too good for today’s media rabble and she knew it.
