You've got to love the media
« on: June 03, 2010, 07:44:49 PM »
Rohan Connolly on 3aw now:

First he said "I'm not knocking the Richmond sides of the 60s/70s but maybe we rate them so highly because many of players from that period have gone into the media or have had a high profile for a long time so we recognise them."

Then the debate switched to Royce Hart vs Wayne Carey when a Tiger fan said Royce should be a Legend in the AFL Hall of Fame. Some other caller then reckoned Carey would wipe the floor with Hart and Connolly said I don't know about that as Hart was a huge name in football in the 60s/70s but certainly Carey had a better record than Hart.

Ummm Rohan by record did you include Royce having 4 premierships medallions compared to Carey's two.
