Yep. A lot of bay flogs (pickett in particular) feigning interest in the topic when the reaity is they just want to stir up s**t. A lot in that thread just want it to blow up so they can laugh at North, brisbane and hawthorn.
Thought no trolling was permitted in that thread? Oh wait main board..

I suspect rusty is a True Believer:tm: and as such almost everything he views is through a very specific lens. Frankly it was him doubling down on it all, after people offered critique, that was the most bizarre thing to me.
Indeed, he placed himself in a position that did not allow nuance or the possibility of alternative explanations to his take.

I think North has some real estate in that pickett poster's head. To be fair, we've pretty much been dominating his team for 30 years straight, even beat them this year when at our worst. Probably stings him real hard.

I swear he’s mentally unwell or hooked on downers.
 
Really not satisfied at all by that apology...

This is getting a bit ridiculous now. I'd like to know what Sonja has done to deserve the criticism, vitriol, mockery, lack of respect and lack of common decency. This is an individual that has achieved a mountainous amount of work in community investment and spreading the importance of bringing people from different cultures into a sustainable development pathway in terms of education and giving people the best opportunity they can to succeed in various industries. The most important thing being, her work in multicultural environments where embracing different cultures is crucial.

Rusty coming after her and then hitting us with that snake oil apology just only makes me, as a supporter and member, even angrier.

If I was Rusty, I would've shut my mouth and not said a thing. It really does take only a few secs to rethink what you might post and whether it is the right thing to share. Social media is powerful and when you go after an individual with unbreakable support, you better have something concrete to go along with those shots. I would be totally embarrassed and this is why it's also important that you need to be careful when people know who you work for. If he's acting this way as a journalist for ABC, that needs to be addressed not just from a crap apology but also from a professional standpoint. Some respect and discussion should be the first thought. Perhaps they can have an interview or have a lengthy discussion at the club.

I am disappointed by Russell's actions. I would've held him to higher regard than other journos but this just leaves a very sour taste. He attacked our club like the rest of them and that confirms to me that no one wants to give us a chance other than Kingy.

It's a shame. A real shame that our president has to cop all this shit daily and on top of that, deal with the footy dept issues and appointment of a new CEO. She's doing an impeccable job!

Apologise properly Russell or don't apologise at all. We're not stupid and we're definitely used to this sort of treatment.

How are those Saints going?

She was born a woman. First mistake. I’d like to give the benefit of the doubt that this isn’t the case, but well, **** it, the shit she has endured this year from media campaigners has been nothing short of disgusting and I can’t remember another president copping it the way Sonja has…

Second was becoming the president of north at time when we are an absolute basket case.

Rusty and his apology can get ****ed.
 
“I read it lots of times over and over with my mummy and now I get it!
Sorry.”

Just a dumb campaigner.
 
The letter wasn’t ambiguous, but it’s a negotiated outcome. Sonja was ok with it. Everyone move on. Think of it as practice for what Clarkson is going to have to sign his name to down the track.
 
Rusty using the word “ambiguous” in his apology highlights his inability to interpret what is the actual truth. :stern look
His apology itself was ambiguous.

Ironically, he was forced to issue an apology and to redact his offensive tweet to save himself from legal action - an act imposed upon him for his own benefit.

I wonder if that helps him to understand that harsh external influences can sometimes be imposed to help the individual concerned?
 
Totally.

Genuine as a 3 dollar bill.
It comes straight from the "I apologise if I offended anyone" school of weasel worded apologies that aren't really apologies.

Ironically, Rusty thinks that by posting the original tweet he was standing up for the families making the allegations. If anything, he's severely undermined their position as now his professional judgement, credibility and objectivity are in question.

A few other people who jumped in to back him probably feel a bit silly now. Interesting that whether it’s direct or via ABC/Legal this outcome came from a discussion between him and Sonja. She is good and she is strong.

the good Doc don't like losing, isn't in her vocabulary apparently.
Fun times aye 🤦‍♂️
 
When we get through this shit storm and that Sunday eventually comes when Sonja stands in front of 50,000 hung-over diehards at Arden Street and holds Cup number 5 up then says "this is for you Caro and Corn!!"..

We'll build a statue of her on that exact spot. I'll pay for it.

I’d be happy with: “This one is for the Roo-believers!”

Wouldn’t waste a breath on those that seek to bring us down. Give them what they fear most - irrelevance.

I prefer to sort a bully out with a punch to the chin. I just can't walk away from that shit.

That's how I'm wired..
