****en idiot and his teammates actually plan to talk trash and target opposition players but can't take a bit back.
He reacted to being kissed the first time by giving a free kick away. Langford's tactic worked. Deal with it, dickhead.
Considering langers has actually played in a premiership and his old man is a hawthorn legend who does he need to respect? Seems like mcveigh has a sense of entitlement because of his experience and longevity in the game. Should we roll out the red carpet for you as well mate? Send him a box of kleenex in the mail and move on.Respect has to be earned. It's a bit presumptuous of McVeigh for thinking Langford has to respect him.
I bet Langers washed his face and lips after kissing that ugly head.
It was around 2:38 left in the first quarter or 25:44 minutes into the broadcast.I know I sad I would look up the time of the game when the sledging went down, but I won't do that. I don't need to keep putting gasoline on this fire.
So has anyone ever seen a less successful attempt to niggle, harass and target our players?
Seriously, prematch Papley talking about how theytaeget players, post match McVeigh having a sook at being disrespected.
Amazing.

Looks like Jones says "****ter - you're a weak campaigner - ****ter" to Langers.
Is that horse in front of him?Howe at centre bounces....

Nah, nose is far too small.Is that horse in front of him?
Classy from
Buddy also. Easy to be classy when you win.
Buddy deserves none of the hate he gets from this board. He is brilliant. Will go down as a top 10 player of all time. And a pivotal part of two of our premierships.
I should've prefaced that post with the acknowledgement that I am half cut and not a trained lip reader.If he did say that then he owes Nic Newman an apology as his brother is gay. I was half joking about McVeigh and his comments losing Sydney the pride game - but if Jones did use that slur then I'm moving towards being more serious.
Wonder where Erin's outraged article is on this? Only took a couple of fans saying 'Sydney take it up the arse' and Rob Mills making a silly joke for her to claim our fanbase was a bunch of rabid homophobes on the front page of The Age. Fair is fair here.
I reckon Langford's heart is filled with double the normal amount of courage. His fearless, head first charge on the loose ball earns him a spot in my opinion. I reckon his kicking will come good. He was previously quite reliable. He'll get there again.
Does anyone have a time on Jones' comment yet?
If Sicily was really just telling Jones to watch his language, then paint me impressed. I thought it would be some trash like: "is that the first time you've ever tried defending?"Yep just after the roughy marking contest at the 2.43 minute mark at the end of the first quarter. Jimmy seemed to take offense to which is a good sign that these things will not be let go as much anymore. Wish the commentators were smart enough to realise that's why he had words with Jones, then we could have a discussion about the importance of language in the battle for equality. I realise that is probably a bridge to far yet though. I'm not sure if Mcveigh was being homophbic or if he just doesn't like the invasion of personal space... Its an odd reaction. As Others have said Langford has the right to feel disrespected.
Yep must kick over the mark or enter field of play then change direction, what's the man on the mark supposed to do when the ump calls play on and the guy with the ball isn't even in the field of play, run over the line and tackle him into the fence?You can add the player taking the free kick from outside the boundary. He took about three staep forward, then turnec back and hand-balled. Should have been a throw in.
Sydney after match presser, Cordy and Wu sitting together asking horse some Dorothy Dicks type questions, Clarko having to deal with friggin Stevo!Before every Haw v Syd game you have to listen to the absurd commentary about Syd. We continually show them up (and only lose when we kick ourselves out of a win) and every time there is a new excuse that is started by their mates in the media to divert attention from another loss. It is like clock work.
Yeah, nah. Footy isnt footy any more. Footy used to sort out what gets descried as niggle. The soft **** practitioners that do it get lauded as tough guys. Nothing tough about it, and a clever counter from Langers in doing what he did. Hell of a taunt. Funny, lighthearted, and as weve seen - very effective. Onya Langers, I applaud you for the act and not getting sucked into the fake niggling shit.Yeah, no. Footy is for footy. Bigoted sledges as well as kissing and other signs of intimacy have no place on the field. Run fast, tackle hard, kick long and win. That's all that belongs on the footy field.
Langers gets sledged as a "****". Wrong and the AFL should do something about it if they are genuine. But players shouldn't start kissing other players in return, whether out of sarcasm or affection. Just play the damn game please. And behave like adults (who want to beat the stuffing out of each other.).
Nah, Tippet has been starring in the twos! Starring!! What star, 5 goals something in a 100 point drubbing of NT Thunder.Pointedly no mention of Vickery or Tippett. At least Vickery is cheaper

I find it disrespectful of anyone who played the game in a previous era, who would not have tolerated the pansy antics of that Zack no caJones, or pissants like Ballantyne for a moment. They've managed to hide behind the skirt of the image conscious AFL, the umpires and outraged footy mums. All consequences for said tough guy acts have been removed from the game, the natural balance of physical retaliation, the bump or tackle have almost been removed from the game, and the legitimate shrug off elbow, or clip from the fist will see you removed from the game in short order.
On the subject of kissing on a footy field, I have seen little pecks at top level rugby league at least. Happened years ago and wasnt surprised then, so I always thought a legitimate response or taunt. Absolutely nothing in it.
As a extremely lippy and antagonising junior player, sometimes called on to play more senior grade, I was given the advice - if you start a fight, dont try and box on, grab em in a bear hug and plant a kiss on em. Their response will be to fight to get away from you! Complete self preservation on their part. Or it'll crack others up and they will laugh.
Started some fights, never had to go the smooch, but it is sound advice Ive repeated and had coaches agree with.
Old man Mc has made fool of himself. The way he's carried on, people will be blowing him kisses in the street for the rest of his days.
Tube.
But Tony Olango is in our academy as a future player - great exposure to young Tony!Nah, Tippet has been starring in the twos! Starring!! What star, 5 goals something in a 100 point drubbing of NT Thunder.
What a star with 5 goals, and as starting ruck getting climbed all over by some skinny ruckman called Tony Olango!
Why doesnt anybody want such a star?
Shit truck.
Hard to hear exactly what was said but it appear ****ter may have been said.It was around 2:38 left in the first quarter or 25:44 minutes into the broadcast.
Looks like Jones says "****ter - you're a weak campaigner - ****ter" to Langers.
