No Oppo Supporters General AFL and other clubs discussion thread. **Opposition fans not welcome** Part 7

[Strapping Young Lad]

WTF. Is Zorko right in the head? No captain of any club should ever resort to this kind of garbage sledging. Your team are a bunch of frauds Dayne and maybe your the reason for it. Rekon he should give the game away anyway. More interested in scrapping and fighting than trying to win a big game of footy for his team.

I haven’t paid attention to Zorko over the last couple of years but when searching Twitter last night to find out what was going on I found this video and it shows him to be a complete garbage human who has no care for his opponent or the staff at his own club.

 

[Suntory Boss Coffee]

Can understand why Petty was upset last night, regardless of whether he’s religious or not.
If this is what was actually said Zorko is an absolute lowlife.

Via reddit:
"According to guy on Dees Bigfooty board. Ryan Bastinac who played for Lions was engaged to Petty's sister who is a professional netballer. Zorko said "we all put money in to pay for your sisters abortion". Apparently the Petty's are a strong catholic family."

I don't think Zorko is intelligent enough to realise the link between Catholics and anti abortion

 

[wahawk]

He’s a classic small man syndrome sufferer.
Every game he’s trying fight/niggle/mouth off at opponents.
Concentrate on football, it’s what you’re actually getting paid to do

Hodge would have Zorko smashed up against the lockers if he were still playing.

 

[Ned Ryerson]

Hodge would have Zorko smashed up against the lockers if he were still playing.

They played together and Zorko was still like this. Hodge is still involved at the club and Zorko is still like this. Where Zorko oversteps with his mouth, as much as I love Hodgey, he overstepped with his physicality. He’s no angel.

 

[arupist]

Oh, the outrage.

FFS, you lot are soft.

 

[Billyc]

Brisbane had a notoriously toxic leadership culture under Rockliff. I had thought Fagan had worked to fix that, but clearly not very successfully

 

[TylerDurden]

Reptile.

The photo his ex girlfriend uploaded of him asleep on the couch and the story captioned with it tops that imo ^

You're the one who's soft because you're not sticking up for a man who potentially received discrimination because of his religion.

This wasn’t religious discrimination. It was a tasteless sledge, absolutely, but let’s not make this a holy war.

 

[smish]

I’m not sure that the “strong Catholic family” line is correct considering his sister was sent off to a Protestant school

In any event it’s a gutless and shocking thing to say to someone about their sister. Who even knows if it’s true or if Petty was even aware of the fact

 

[smish]

Only thing worth watching about Brisbane games anymore is that you get to see Birch

 

[Billyc]

Religious bit is irrelevant. But it’s just a grubby and low thing to say about someone

 

[Strapping Young Lad]

Oh, the outrage.

FFS, you lot are soft.

I guess your family are fair game then.

 

[KermitJagger]

didn't think they were allowed to play finals there due to the lower crowd capacity caused by the refurbishments?

I thought it was interstate = home, Vic team = MCG.

Former Collingwood and Richmond player Aaron James once copped a sledge over the fence at a country game from a spectator about his wife losing a baby.
He was a big intimidating guy about 6’4 and 120kgs and he kicked bags every week, but he walked over to the fence, grabbed the spectator and belted the shit out of him. Got suspended for the rest of the year from memory, or he might have even had his registration torn up due to other suspensions.

I always felt he should’ve have gotten off for that one though.

I don’t usually condone violence but that’s a thing of beauty.

Reminds me of the urban legend that I hope is true - story goes that a couple of flogs saw Ian Roberts and the passenger in the car yelled out the f-slur at him. They got stopped at a set of lights so Roberts caught up to them and belted the bloke who said it through the car window and said to him ‘now you can tell all your mates you got beat up by a f-slur’.

 

[KermitJagger]

If someone said that shit to me about my sister I don't think I'd be able to control myself as well as Petty seemed to.

Clearly you are soft.

 

[KermitJagger]

Clearly! Though from all reports Zorko seems like a good case for post-natal abortion... even 33 years later.

 

[Off The Couch]

We don’t know what was said but it obviously shocked and offended Petty.

There will be those who think he was soft
There will be those who think it’s “just a sledge” and he should get over it
There will be those who make this about Petty rather than the grub making the sledge

These are probably the same folk who think it’s okay to post racist comments online

Zorko has a reputation for being a grub - I don’t think this will end well for him and I’m surprised he hasn’t been made to front the media today or has he

 

[Judd2Sewell]

You're the one who's soft because you're not sticking up for a man who potentially received discrimination because of his religion.

Clearly not religious discrimination. It was just a pathetic and tasteless sledge.

 

[Mercy Seat]

Supposedly he apologised pretty genuinely after the game and petty has accepted it. The very least he could do I guess.

Until he does it again. Fagen needs to make a stand and drop this bloke as captain.
He’s no leader.!!!
