Eddie's Column

Post by Melsa5 »

If you haven't already, get a copy of Saturday's Sun. Great reading.

Eddie had an open letter to the Dees...I was cheering with delight.

His main comment was, You can do what you want with your champions, but he is our champion now.....so back off! AMEN BROTHER!

Once you join the Collingwood Family, you have the WHOLE Collingwood Family behind you...man I love it!

I put my hand up in believing that Eddie writes it.

Anyone else?

lol Alf.
About a month ago Hinch (who also writes for the Feral-Hun) on air, ran through a number of columns from all the papers that were ghosted. Eddies was one of them. He said his brother Frank wrote it and if put to Eddie he would not deny it or at the very least would say it was done in collaberation with his brother. Apparently it is a fairly common thing in journalism and is widely accepted ie no big deal. It was not said by Hinch in a derogatory, negative or put down sense he said it as a matter of well known fact. He ran off the names of about a dozen columns that were done in the same manner. He said in the past even the great Lou Richards column was ghosted.
Believe it or not (for I don't give a rats toss bag).

I think Frank does a lot of Eddies things, writes his column, does presidential sfutt, hosts millionaire, the footy show, all the events he has to go too, it's impossible for one man to do them all! I have long beleived there were two of him!!! Image

though in all seriousness I reckon Eddie would write it, it wouldn't take long for him to bash something up, and he has to take the fall for it. I'm not sure that a ghost writer would be as agressive and political as th ecolumn sometimes is.

Well hello darrrrrrrrrrrrrlings

I just want to tell you about a glorious event held at Maxims last weekend. I am now going to afternoon tea in Brighton so for now my darlings, I hope you are all buying so many gorgeous shoes from Gary Castle in Toorak road and I hope to see you all at the opening of an envelope very soon.

Much love,

Lillian Frank

Ghostwriting? Pffft! LOL

To CQ, Murray, Alf, Ben and Lorelei. Very funny. I never fail to get a good laugh when visiting this BB and they're not always the posts that are trying to be humourous either. Lol.

Luv yas all.

Donny, I reckon it sounds like you're actually being ghosted by Jeff Fenech! "Luv yas all" sounds very familiar...Image

Thought Eddie's comments were a bit tacky myself. As has often been proclaimed and elsewhere which I agreed with. Beware hubris.
