Hall of Shame Game!
May 13th 2008 20:06
The analysis of the AFL`s 150 year celebration, which had the Hall of Fame game as it`s showpiece, was suitably assessed by the erudite Brendan Fevola, who in his "My Fame Game Diary in Monday`s Melbourne Herald Sun, demonstrated what he took from the game, "..found out Campbell Brown has the loudest laugh in history. Every time he laughs he makes me laugh". Should not the Alan Aylett medallist add to his cabinet, for this glorious insight into the mind of a champ. What! No medal for that literature?
Never mind Mike Sheahan is holding the Fort, he knows what is ailing the world, not just footy. Yeah that `s right " the scouge of modern sport, the Mexican wave"
Mike must assume the worst about Geelong`s Paul Chapman, " I was looking around and off goes the Mexican wave. I thought it was great". His Victorian colleague Doggie Robert Murphy was not as convinced, "I thought someone might have fallen out of the stands. I guess I got carried away. Th crowd got loud there at one stage. It was almost offputting. Melbourne is the sporting capital, so it was pretty good"
What are you on Robert? Has Browny spiked your mocha `cos he didn`t get a guernsey?
The shame of the game was awarding the medal for best afield to the player who benefits from the skills of those around him Fevola, while the likes of Peter Burgoyne had the ball on a string with 36 posessions, 8 contested and an efficiency rating of 83% are not fully acknowledged or appreciated. Burgoyne was not alone here Andrew Mcleod was outstanding with 29 touches and again a high rating, likewise Graham Johncock and Adam Goodes.
Fevola had a very good game no doubt, but, 9 kicks and with 6 goals from straight in front of the posts, unlike Buddy Franklin who kicked 4 and had his attempts from closer to the boundary, and an efficiency rating of 70%. This then begs the question what are the criteria that Luke Darcy Steve butler and Michelangelo Rucci that used in order to reach their conclusion, but this is probably a difficult request, it is difficult to quantify stupidity.An easier task may be to work out how they think, perhaps it is similar to the process used by a writer to The Age`s letter page recently, in light of an article by Guy Rundle of the current topical issue of incest and the moral implications of what happened in Belgium in line with the father daughter couple in South Australia. This subscriber, who signed himself Dr Ahmad opined that incest was inevitable in society because same sex relationships were permissable. Now in isolation this remark may explain why there is a rise in alternative medicine, but, bracketed with Darcy Butler and Rucci, there is a pattern of logic coming to the fore here. Presumably the good doctor feels it is only inevitable before there is public displays of affection and sodomy between and beast on every high street soon at this rate, and the next time Darcy & Co vote on a game the votes will go to the last player with the footy when the siren goes, that is if they get themselves away from the Big Brother episode where a housemate gets intimate with spot the dalmatian.
