Channel 7 anti-football award nomination 2007

Nominee: John Coomber....review of the year...guess who forgot Women's football, the Matilda's.

Don't know who I'm laughing with more, John Coombers year in review, or Spiros Zavos' description of the so-called brilliant round-up.

Matilda's boys! Women's football at the women's World Cup in China 2007. The biggest women's sporting tournament of the year. Bigger than the Netball, the Swimming put together, but then brilliant superb sports journo's like yourself would know that!

Over 35,000 crowd average at every game. Huge interest in Australia and in countries across the globe. Best achievement by the Matilda's ever.....and surprise surprise the boys didn't think it was worth a mention.

So I've nominated John for the www.nearpost.blogspot.com 2007 media anti-football awards of the year. Awarded to the Aussie journo who does his best to ignore the game.

Don't worry John you've no chance of winning, you've too much competition, but Spiros you could sneak up the list:)

Carry on lads!
