Rumour Jeremy Finlayson under investigation - 3 game suspension

[Brian Daniel]

We don’t know who the player was. Maybe that player is gay and it is an open secret amongst the players.

Surely someone must know who it is? The Essendon players were very upset according to Eddie.Maybe the player in question is a well known gay and its known in Footy circles hence the abuse by Finlayson.

Maybe they do. But do we need to know?

Bad luck mate, maybe you'll think twice before you open your mouth next time.

Good mate. Next time you'll think about the effect those kinds of words have on LGBTQ+ people who have to put up with a lifetime of abuse.


Hope he get booed mercilessly when he returns if that's his attitude.

 

[edie]

‘Tipped me over the edge’ is a pretty intense thing to say and then not elaborate on or explain what exactly he means by that

 

[Chief]

From not pissed off to pissed off?

"Alright I'm going to get you to do my podcast, you can talk about your past week and reiterate how sorry you are and then we can chat about the important subject of how my diagnosis has affected you and dealing with it on the footy field."

So he’s not sorry anymore now that there were consequences

What a flop

 

[Underarm]

It's actually a really interesting podcast about the toll his wife's diagnosis has had on him and his playing career ect.

Completely ruined by the fact that Finlayson confirms thinks he should be able to get away with homophobia.

 

[joe444]

Meh. I thought three weeks was too much as well.

Let's not make him a talisman for all the LGBTI prejudice of the past.

 

[Unfazed]

"I take full responsibility but I'll be pxxxx off if I cop a suspension". Such contrition.

 

[Wargreymon90]

Ugh. Shut up Jeremy

 

[hilly]

World needs more podcasts.

On SM-S901E using BigFooty.com mobile app

 

[brutus76]

AFL should tack on an extra week for the fake lack of remorse

People need to learn that if going to say something best not to leave it open to the interpretation of others

 

[Outtatym]

Not a lot going on inside that head it seems

 

[eclipse]

Every right to be pissed. Complete farce.

 

[Rustin Cohle]

This guy has always been a massive flog, on and off field.

 

[matty lloyd the champ]

All the sensitivity training is all honestly BS. Does anyone really think that someone's attitude changes because they attended a mandatory seminar for a few hours?

Regarding Finalyson's comments on the podcast, he's done pretty well to spin what he said. Most have had the PR department working over time haha

 

[Maddo11]

I think he's fine if he just says "... got myself a three week suspension... " which very well might be what he meant. He'd be right to be very frustrated at his choice of words

 

[Toump Ass]

AFL statement is a bit of a wank innit.
"To be clear, without the full and frank admissions, apologies and contrition that Finlayson showed, the sanction would have included a longer suspension."

Of course he showed contrition the dumb campaigner got caught on microphone being a homophobe lmao.

So it turns out Jeremy Floglayson's contrition and apologies weren't in fact genuine.

What a shocking turn of events. Unbelieavable.

I can't believe it.

In a surprise to no one, outed homophobe reveals rotten personality

 

[Underarm]

He apologised again, time to lop another week off.
