Grant Thomas was known as Cornflakes.
Lleyton Hewitt is Li'l' Lleyton.
Richard Pratt is now ''The Price Fixer''.
Because James Brayshaw doesn't want to be called outside office hours ''unless it's ball-burstingly urgent'', he is now The Ball Burster.

It's time Patrick Smith got some of his own medicine.

From this day forward, the artist formerly known as Patrick Smith will be known as The Chucker.

First the facts. When playing as a fast bowler for Prahran in Melbourne's district cricket competition in the 1970s, The Chucker was universally regarded as the most blatant chucker in the Victorian Cricket Association.
These days The Chucker loudly condemns Muttiah Muralitharan for being a chucker. Mmmm.

The Chucker was also universally regarded as one of the worst behaved cricketers in the Victorian Cricket Association. Petulant. Bad tempered. Suspended for misconduct. A disgrace. The Chucker now makes a living sanctimoniously passing judgement on modern day sportsmen and women. Mmmm.

The Chucker pretends to be an impartial commentator. The Chucker loudly condemns Carlton's salary cap breaches yet is strangely silent about Essendon*'s many salary cap indiscretions. We find it hard to believe that The Chucker could be a one eyed Essendon* supporter who uses heavy handed sarcasm to make a point.

It is now incumbent on the News Ltd board to remove The Chucker.

Is The Chucker safe because he works for The Australian, also known as ''Rupert's Sheltered Workshop''?

No. The Chucker is an embarrassment. The Chucker has no credibility.
The Chucker must go.

The Chucker (aka "The Tantrum" due to his on-field temperament) also condemns Richard Pratt, yet says nothing about the most blatant price fixer, gouger, inside trader and conflicted person in business, Rotten Ron Evans.

I would like Patrick Smith to explain how Spotless Catering saw fit during Ron Evans tenure on the Board of both Spotless and the AFL Commission - to purchase the Catering Company "Mustard Catering" a small West Australian Catering Company that happened to have the catering contract at Subiaco Oval.

How dis Spotless Catering know that the AFL Commission was going to move all AFL fixtures from the WACA and take them to Subiaco Oval (previous to that the WACA and Subiaco Oval share all AFL fixtures in Perth).

Of course Ron Evans removed himself from the Spotless Boardroom when Spotless made the decision to purchase Mustard Catering.

Ron Evans bastion of corporate morality.

:roll: :roll: :roll: :roll: :roll: :roll: :roll: :roll:



Ron Evans President of the Essendon* Football Club - but adroitly sheeted home blame for Essendon*'s Salary Cap cheating to subsequent Essendon* President David Shaw.


Ron Evans AFL Chief Commissioner and champion of the integrity of the AFL Competition.



Go on Fatprick Smith - show us how you have no fear or favour.

Email it to Paul Keating while you're at it.

Maybe he can follow up today's letter to the Australian asking for the removal of Janet Albrechtsen...
