A junior footballer for the Sandhurst Dragons in Bendigo and the Horsham Saints in Horsham, Robinson began covering football in 1992. Throughout his career he has predominantly covered Australian rules football and has been the chief football writer for the Herald Sun since 2012 following the retirement of Mike Sheahan.  Robinson is former co-hosted the AFL 360 television program on Fox Footy from 2010 until his sacking at the end of 2024. He previously appeared regularly as a panelist on AFL Game Day from the show's launch in 2008 until 2011 when AFL 360 expanded to four nights a week through the AFL season.

Sam Newman is a cxnt who has confused reach with insight. A hero to racist cranky old men with limited education, pining for a past where their inadequacies were less obvious.

60k yrs, no written history. Oral history collected by colonials, archaeology and writing down of languages by same. No wheel. Pretty short history course.

Why are you taking money for FAKE ADVERTISING about Climate Change?? C’mon - thats shit. Love the show putting that aside…the last few months have been amazing in particular with just how ‘awakened’ you’ve become with ‘world affairs’.

Wade is spot on. If people go to everywhere BAR ‘BOUGHT MAINSTREAM MEDIA’ outlets, they’ll see he is 100% correct too!

Nicola is so much more talented than Neighbours anyway, you look at it… & she was spot-on about what she had to say about TV production, image issues & Covid politics.

Mike Sheehan did a typical journo thing… shat himself… when the criticism got hot! He is all talk no substance. Could work in an industry where he destroyed others with non-sense innuendo.. when he cops it himself… he flees… the man is truly spineless.. you had an opportunity to grow a pair Mike.. but you threw Sam & Don under a bus.
