Rumour 2024 Rumours and Speculation Part 3

Is it confirmed he’ll be head of development? If so my excitement will dissipate

That's what they announced when they got Davis right?

"In other changes, Michael Godden will have a greater emphasis on player and coach development, and Matthew Wright becomes SANFL Senior Coach while continuing to work with the Club’s emerging forwards."

If that’s what that means… ugh

 

[FR0GGY]

AFL went with the old "suspend the duds and fine the good players" move

So is it a case of the seniors knowing they’d get into trouble and made the young bucks do the dirty?

 

[Scorpus]

If that’s what that means… ugh

The post implied all of their off field changes were finalized at that point so I'd say that's what it means

That's not great for the likes of Curtin, Edwards and our pick 4.

It's very vague..... just enough for the clappers to be happy and not question it

Imagine being delisted and looking for work and then finding out that you're also rubbed out for 2 weeks.

I would argue differently as I recognise humour done well can help raise discussion of issues we usually keep private when talking about them is much better

But the main issue I have is its not suspension worthy no matter the odious nature of the dress up

Do I get upset because 3 Geelong players dressed up as goalposts and Keays or do I laugh at the whole situation created and recognise the AFL screwed up and Geelong took the opportunity to 1. Highlight it 2 Take the opportunity to have fun at our expense

People need to stop reacting like Maude Flanders

Three players pretending to be goalposts is MILES away from someone dressing as a rapist and possibly acting out the scene. FFS, what is wrong with you people?

Rowey said today there were more to come.

We can’t possibly have downgraded our player development by giving that responsibility as well as coaches to Godden.

You would absolutely hope not.

 

[jenny61_99]

Surely it's a "issue a club statement and the players receiving a stern talking to" scenario.

Moral of the story is to not have those kinds of functions at a pub. It's not worth it. Have it at someone's house or go to Bali and go your hardest.

Look, the bigger point here is that men - and many of you in here it seems - STILL make light of sexual assault situations. Why can’t many of you see how we keep perpetuating this bullshit? The only reason I put my hand up to say “enough” - fully knowing the back lash I’ll get in here - is the hope that some will reconsider laughing publicly or throwing away the casual joke about these hideous situations. For the person who has been r*ped, this is NEVER funny. For the person who has been violated by a trusted adult, this is NEVER funny. Y’all blaming it on the “woke” agenda is part of the ****ing problem. This is NOT a “woke” agenda. It’s real life and it sucks.

Very uninspired by our off field

I don't think anyone here is saying it was funny or making light of sexual assault.

Looking forward to Godden developing Pick 4 as as a half forward

Bloke was found innocent, you're raging about something our legal system found didn't happen.

You do know he was cleared of the rape charges yeah?

I'm in no way condoning the players alleged actions but facts matter...

Jarryd Hayne walks free from court after rape charges formally withdrawn

Ex-NRL player thanks his supporters outside Sydney’s Downing Centre court after prosecutors elected not to proceed to fourth trial

I think Murray Davis has a strong development background

 

[feenix67]

I think if I did a skit at my work end of year function about Jared Hayne and a sex doll, I'd probably get a call from HR the next morning.

Ok, what about if you came to said "troubled couples" theme party depicting Dodi and Di? Donald and Stormy? Dave Grohl and baby mumma? Which part offends you? The sex doll? The subject matter? The time frame?

Just tell HR he was acquitted and you'll be fine. No issues whatsoever

"Y'all", and you reckon QLD has classed up. I call bulldust on that.

 

[MrBarry]

Find it absurd the indigenous player got off on a 'im black how can I be racist' excuse..... Mental

 

[MarcusP2]

Nobody gets found 'innocent', he gets found not guilty.

Nobody disputes what happened that night, but for the alleged victim it was obviously traumatic. So it's fairly easy to not make light of it.

 

[MrBarry]

Not guilty. Only two people know what happened that night.
