Don't know. He's never been my cup of tea. What's he done now?

Just saw him bob up on the Supercoach Box podcast. When that's not occurring he'll pop up on Crown betting ads amidst AFL Live and Foxtel commentary. He is making Alastair Lynch sound like mensa!!!

Correct. Just a tad weird for a 6/10 footballer whom retires in 2007 somehow emerges in 2014/15 with (as you said Eddie everywhere) a portfolio of media riches. Who next:

* Richie Vandenberg
* Lance Whitnall
* Chris Heffernan???

Surely it's not just me.... But I'm flabbergasted that a 3/10 (being generous) thug of a player in Campbell Brown gets media gigs too.

Agree. I'm also surprised that a dog like Carey got a gig even though he was an exceptional player.

Well he was tapping Christie Newton a while back...
Is he still with her; she was stinkin' hot?
Reckon that would have shot my confidence through the roof...
