Rumour Multiple GWS players are set to be suspended to start the 2025 season after distasteful costumes and skits from their post-season function

[M Malice]

Biggest blight on the game since Adelaide ran a training exercise with 12 instead of 8 in the early days of COVID.

Hilarious, love it.

Can I plagiarize that?

Grown adults only allowed to be strong, silent, gruff VB loving, Winnie blues smoking men ey?

Why are you so triggered?

Remark made that someone deemed offensive about the Diddler. I really hope that person hasn’t laughed at or forwarded one of the amazing Diddy memes that came out a few weeks back.

Dressing as RayGun is offensive. Well so was RayGun’s “dancing”.

The bad thing is on these players is that them all together can be deemed a “workplace” as I found out in a private setting with friends that led to a rubbish internal investigation and working together and socialising in a group it was deemed as a workplace.

The punishments being spoken about are more out of line when compared to the dress of other clubs players in similar circumstances and the other acts of players in the past.

It’s funny how many people are saying how ridiculous it all is without having the faintest clue what happened.

If the staff have complained… well, they work in a pub. Not a church. People who work in a pub would be used to a usual level of hijinks. Doubt they’re worried about that, it’s their job.

What would possibly lead them to make a complaint about a function?

What could possibly have happened with a group of several dozen footballers who’ve been on unlimited alcohol and drugs for many hours?

That the AFL are fining the skipper for not putting a stop to it?

Switch your brain on, it wouldn’t be the first time things have gone awry at a footballers event like this. Are people really dismissing the possibility that something beyond the pale has happened here?

The possibilities are endless.

I doubt it’s anything to do with a raygun costume.

Have a think about what they could have done…

Even in private they're representing their club and their sponsors, this is the verbal equivalent of getting busted doing a line of blow.

Well it's taken nine and a half months but here it is - the worst take we'll see this year

 

[Toump Ass]

Hope the funny men at GWS King of Social Media Team come up with.
Did they ever do meme about choking a premiership away?

*****.

Ladies and Gentlemen- Australian society and its destruction explained in the words of this poster.

It’s this attitude that has screwed this country. I’m sure they wear their club colours and represent their club too when they go down on their partners or whoever they sleep with too, in private like you say.

Aussies used to be sworn to secrecy. Now you have to watch how you fart because you represent your workplace and it could look badly. Oh and you can’t even make a joke about anything, jokes are bad.

Unfortunately those who hate humour and can’t laugh at anything have taken over the narrative somehow and now dictate what you can say, do and act.

**** this shit at this point I’m moving to Eastern Europe or The Middle East.

It’s probably worse for you mate, being a celebrity

 

[Scritchyscroony]

I heard it was Diddy party related. Toby Green went as Justin Beiber, Whitfield was Jenifer Lopez, Hogan was Will Smith.
Highly inappropriate simulations ensued all evening.

 

[IKnowtheDog]

Got to love the AFL media machine it certainly knows how to pump out content.

Mitch Cleary performing like Shane Warne v Darryl Cullinan

Can’t the GWS players just claim mental health?

They should consider themselves lucky they didn't work for SBS, they sacked someone over a Tweet.

 

[Happy_Neale]

Gotta wonder what has actually happened for both the complaint to be taken seriously AND to be played out publicly with suspensions/fines etc.

Can’t have been good

 

[Suntory Boss Coffee]

Feel the AFL is coming down hard because CCTV exists with a blow up doll.

Hardly crime of the century but I can see the AFL not being happy about footage being circulated.

Whatever the venue is, expect them to be blacklisted by a lot more than GWS

I long for the simpler times

Like Fev walking down Lygon Street with an inflatable giant dildo

First incident of it's kind, no one has ever seen such menacing stuff in a pub fancy dress party

Jail time I wonder?

Just damages the 'brand' really

 

[FlowersByIrene]

were the celebrities laura kane and andrew dillon? and was the skit about their tenure at the head of the afl?

You can't be sued for slander if its accurate.

 

[FlowersByIrene]

Do you think GWS and their sponsors are loving all this at the moment?

This wouldn't be a story if they weren't fining them. No one even knows what happened.

 

[FlowersByIrene]

People talk about "damaging the brand" while Laura Kane and Andrew Dillon **** the AFL sideways.

Bar person must be a dickhead

GWS need a decent coterie. Surely most clubs have someone who owns a pub who can be trusted to keep private things private.

Far too sensible for this thread.
