Someone said earlier that it is SEN's job to create controversy/bring up stupid "talking points" to get the sports talkback bogans all riled up. Kids on the field is just the latest example this week. There'll be more.

It's a lot harder for them now too, they can't just dig up some random take on DRUUUGSSS to get the mouthbreathers calling in thick and fast

What do you mean? If they want to shout "DRUGS!!!", all they have to do is whisper "West Coast in the 90s", and they a thousand calls demanding that teh Eagles be stripped of all premierships ever because some of them like to party-hearty, followed by a further thousand saying that it's all an over-reaction and boys will be bopys back in the day players liked a drink, It's no different.

... and so it goes.

sure, but I doubt they'd get away with doing it twice a day like they could during the last 4 years

I thought Fantasia's drop kick was better than that Heppell goal, although both of them would be just making up the numbers because Cockatoo's should win it

I'M CONCERNED ABOUT A NUMBER OF THINGS

quote:

ESSENDON has unearthed a Dustin Fletcher double certain to be taken in next year’s draft — Fletcher’s 197cm son.

Calder Cannons talent manager Ian Keyte said full-back Mason Fletcher was already in the frame for the 2018 national draft.

The skinny redhead, who turns 17 on Saturday, has been added to the Vic Metro squad after two impressive games for the Cannons this year.

Dustin Fletcher was prevented from coaching his son in the rooms last year because of his ASADA ban.

But Dustin (400 games) and Mason’s grandfather Ken Fletcher (264) have watched the teen who will become a third generation Bomber.

“He is an absolute clone of Dustin, with his footy smarts and everything he does,’’ Keyte said.

“His rounded back and shoulders, his late entry to get a hand in from nowhere, his closing speed over the last five metres when caught out of position ... all those things are Dustin over and again.

“He is looking more and more (like an AFL player) every time he goes onto the ground.

“He has those qualities his father had and I was fortunate to be around the TAC Cup when Dustin played and he plays the same as Dustin did as a 17-year-old.”

Essendon would have to bid for Mason under the AFL draft rules, just as it had to hand over pick 10 for father-son selection Joe Daniher.

Where he eventually fits into the order will depend on his TAC Cup form in the next 18 months, but already he is raising eyebrows.

Younger brother Max Fletcher, playing under-16 football at Calder, is yet to have a growth spurt but at 178cm also has talent.

What a oval office; no wonder Beveridge refuses to give him the time of day.

there's a bunch of clubs that flatly refuse to have anything to do with him

it's probably why he comes up with bullshit like this stuff about Dempster, without anyone giving him scoops he has to just make it up as he goes along

Yes but he cracked the shits when we relied on him in the ruck too much. He also didn't like being made to play forward.

There's a story going round of a Port nazi in Melbourne and I'm 99% sure it's a guy I kicked out of the store back when I was working bottleo, although at that time he was carrying a confederate flag instead of a swastija armband

Yeah, he also likes to wear a soviet bear skin hat to go with his swastika armband. The guy has some pretty serious mental health issues
