A surprisingly positive article by this wine sozzling, roof falling, varicosed veined and corpulent #&*%

A Walkley Award winner - the organization that hands out these awards have debased them selves greatly by awarding it to this fat flower.

The adjectives he uses about our club should be cast in concrete and beaten around his ugly head and used to weight his fat and lifeless body to the depths of the Mariana Trench.

Don't forget he's a bully, bad sport, and a cheat.

Patrick is not real good with irony is he?

His continual attempts to play up the hysterics about Carlton in order to buy a few reads from the rabid supporters of our old bitter rivals has seen him turf any integrity or respect he had out the window...does that not make you the sycophant Patty?

Better yet, he is increasingly existing purely to talk about Carlton, a team he hates...supposedly

:lol:

Sycophant refers to us the CFC members/supporters who blindly follow the price fixer wherever he leads us.

Yep. We're sycophants because we choose a future instead of oblivion.

If our president is cast as the "Price Fixer", than FatPrick must be playing the role of the "prat".

He won't let up on it. He's created a rod for his own back by picking the ACCC ruling as HIS defining issue of the season.

Sadly no-one else cares, but seeing as he's pushed it this hard, he won't let it go even if the rest of the football world has.

If you're going to get angry about his writing - expect to be angry the entire year at least.

Of course - you could save yourself the angst and take the Deano approach.

Perhaps we could all send him 40c in the mail, so he can call someone who cares

Because he calls himself a "Columnist" which means he can spout any old unsubstantiated lies and garbage, and couch it in "witty" nicknames and call it "opinion"
