Caro talks and reports more smack than than any other media outlet in the world. I never seen so much shower come out of anyones mouth ever, and i witnessed a mate spew shower once.
Caro over the arrogant di*****d Hutchy and his mate Barrott
C grade reporters. Good to see mr. Lyon put that witch in her place when she questioned his credibility. Lloydy is the man.
Thought her and Lyon were going to come to blows tonight. Never sure though whether it is just for show - they seem to calm down pretty quick...
dont ruin it for me, it starts in 40 mins here

Footy Classified over, Lloyd and Lyon should be coaching, Hutchy should be ignored, Talking footy should return monday nights, the footy show should be on right now in february
Footy should be live on 7 in the pre-season, flower you Demetriou, fox nazi's and 7, thanks for selling your soul

yeah he slammed down a 1.125L bottle of vodka. Skulled a near straight glass was sick not long after. There was a foul smell coming from toilet were he laid. His spew was brown. We were going to take him to the hospital. Looked it up and apparently if you have a bowel blockage it's possible.

Of course its just a TV show, These people are just playing roles.
It would be pretty boring(well more boring) if they all agreed with each other and there was no conflict.
Whats the old saying in news, "If it bleeds, it leads"
Talking about vomit and Wilson in the same thread, about right I'd say. 8)

Before I checked, I knew you were going to be an Essendon supporter.. I was correct lol.
Everyone whinges about Carro, Hutchy, Barrett, Robbo, all of them.. but they are the best AFL journalists in the country. They get the best interviews, break the stories first and are the leading writers in the major papers.. but because they say controversial things about certain people and clubs (which is their job) people decide they hate them and take it personally.
Carro isnt the lead sports writter for the Age for no reason. There is a very, very long list of journalists trying to get that job and obviously she is viewed as the best or they wouldn't have her there.
I reckon she does a pretty good job and doesn't tip toe around subjects she just says it how it is so people dont like her.
Then you have someone like Gary Llyon who is happy to talk about all subjects and be opinionated until Melbourne or someone he is friends with are mentioned and he goes all defensive or wont make comments. I would rather someone who tells it like it is

I disagree Quinny. Caroline Wilson is not amongst the best, she does not break stories anymore, all she does is take a current topic and spin it negatively. She does not do any investigative journalism as Barrot, Emma Qualye and Jake Niall all do as she perfers the cheapened currency of talk back radio or entertainer on couch shows.
She has no vision, she doesn't actually keep peple accountable. And that is fine but you can't be taken seriously in print if that is your format (Patrick Smith is the same).
Is investigative journalism where some snake like Barrett waits outside say, Fev's house and attemps to get a story as he gets into his car?
That would be more trolling wouldn't it? I hate journo's!

...dude...wtf.
The only sources Carro has are in the pantry at home. She does not break stories, she just writes opinion pieces which have no backing, are severely ill informed and spread her own agenda. The fact she tried attacking Garry Lyon and his credibility when she has none herself shows how much ish she is full of. Why do you think North Melbourne don't invite her to their press conferences anymore?

yeah quinny doubt you could find many people that agree with you about Caro if they are Essendon supporters or not
And your logic about her being top dog at the Sun is flawed just look at Demetriou
Lets be honest. She wouldnt be on footy classified if she knew nothing about nothing.
People just hate journalists, and she is an easy target being that she is a female and overly opinionated and personal with her claims
So I heard they were sacking Carro during the week. She is not on tonight, coincidence?
Nope, that's not true
See Hutchy's comment on Tanking being surely a good thing? :o ::)
I heard at the end she will be back next week. Jeff Kennett did a pretty good job I thought

Didn't mind Jeff at all tonight, Hutchy needs the boot and Damien should take his chair.
Rucci, Cornes, Rowey and Nuckles
Seriously though, Malthouse, Rucci, Newman, Bruce (Precious)

Quinny I don't hate journos, but if I want a dull negative opinion piece I'll speak with my mates. If she actually broke proper stories then I'd be on board. As for the female thing, that is wrong. Emma Quayle is developing into a great journo & I quite like Kelly Underwood on ABC Grandstand with Francis Leach (not so much as a commentator).
Journos are all there to say this to illicit a response, so we talk about it or watch/read about it.
Caro is as opinionated as Robbo, Walls, Hutchie etc etc. I have disliked these guys once or twice, then gone back to liking them. Except for walls who is a toss pot
Tbh id rather Caro than Hutchy.

Hutchy used to break some big stories but has done nothing in the last two years. They are slowly phasing him out as well. He has been replaced by Damo on the footy show, does not say anywhere near as much as he used to on Footy Classified and what he does say now is just pure crap. I would rather them both be replaced.
I actually did not mind Grant Thomas and have no idea why they got rid of him.

Gotta agree and i also liked Grant aswell, i think i just find it easier to listen to those that have been there and done it and speak from experience even if i didnt always agree but with Hutchy who's never been at the coal face i found i had very little respect and all to often he made jerk statements because he'd never had any real experience, you or i could do that. Anyone that sooks that he has to be the one to throw to more of the add breaks to gain more airtime looses me forever tbh.
Hutchys only role on the show seems to be to try and get under Carro's skin and get a reaction out of her about something. He's a sh*t stirrer. Only good thing he ever did was kick that beautiful goal in the legends game a couple of years ago

He has nothing on that rascal tbag, at least tbag if funny and is clearly not a jerk ::)
Caro's a spud
Caro's old ??? wow she looks old, but where was she sitting :o not in her normal spot
