Caroline Wilson’s criticism of James Brayshaw and North Melbourne is based entirely on one invalid premise: that North Melbourne’s business model is unsustainable. Fact: NMFC made a $1m plus profit last year (albeit with $1.2m of Gold Coast money) Fact: Despite playing 11 home games in Melbourne and ...

Apart from the 18-point loss to Brisbane, North lost some public face at Docklands yesterday. In a bid to save money, the third tier was closed off to the public. It turned into a bit of a fiasco after North had the unusual problem of too many fans turning up, with late arrivals finding themselves [ ...

A case in point is the reaction by some to the Chaser’s skit about the Melbourne Club which saw an effigy of the Governor General Quentin Bryce being physically manhandled out of the club and thrown o ...

By ASHLEY BROWNE Friday night Fremantle v Hawthorn (Subiaco) Just the sort of game the Dockers traditionally lose – just as a few start climbing aboard the purple bandwagon.

I know Caroline Wilson and Eddie Macguire don't like each other very much. But their personal little war is really starting to get silly, topped off by Caro's article today in The Age, where she has claimed that Collingwood is dragging down AFL crowds, wondering "why so many supporters have deserted ...

The PR dream that the Brayshaw-Arocca administration have enjoyed for nearly 18 months is well and truly over. In the last few days the list of negative commentary reads like a who’s-who of the footy media: Iron Mike Sheahan, Caroline Wilson, Footy Classified, Sportal … the list goes on. But the pri ...

The Age continues to push its damning agenda on the Boris video, this time with Caroline Wilson taking the wheel. I have already made my views on the issue clear (here and here). While I see Wilson’s general point, her indignation is typically over the top. And I couldn’t let her write this shit bel ...

Robert Walls in high definition may not be pretty but watching a full hour of One Week At A Time is no problem… …but Footy Classified? Can’t do it! The very sight of Craig Hutchison makes me scramble for the remote every time… It has been with us for less than one week but already Channel Ten’s 24-h ...
