Phil Cleary Gone

Submitted by Volunteer on
Rumour getting around the traps is that Phil Cleary has been dumped from the ABC panel that broadcasts games live on Saturday's. Even though at times Phil carries on a bit I am a great supporter of his comments etc as he truly loves the competition. If you agree we should find an email address at the ABC to complain about the decision, what do you think?

And give Daniel Harford or whoever takes over some credit - you have no idea that he would be AFL bias - you have no idea about whether he would be passionate or not - you have no idea about what he knows about the old VFA - you all just want to have a whinge about something!!!
It will NEVER be the real VFL mate as most of the clubs are former VFA clubs. which has a very long and wonderful history. In fact if there had't been a VFA there would be no AFL/VFL today something that people like you dont seem to understand. Personally I dont really care anymore wether the ABC televises the games the as I dont think it makes any difference to the image of the "VFL" or its standard of play.

That's right - I am just giving my opinion like all of you are giving yours! And yes, I am willing to give "some flogger" a go - I won't have a crack at them before I even know who they are!

Quoting yourself now Dolphin? :) The ABC website must be close to being updated for the VFL. Looking forward to see what they say regarding the line-up.
