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

[SC_Power]

I guess overreactions to this, better than what people get away with in real life…. A lesser fine for actually doing rather than acting. Just today.

How is a terrorist attack in America worth 2 games but slavery just a fine

White people died to terrorists. Dillon and Kane dont approve.

 

[Foxman98]

So you're assuming. Maybe the offended clown was assuming too?

If they’re enacted scenes depicting it doesn’t need to be a long bow to draw

 

[andy_20]

Because it is the most widely consumed entertainment medium of the people that commit 95% of all of society's violent crime (men under 60)

So they are official Stats, or just Stats you made up?
Would you also be happy if the AFL started bombarding their Coverage with, 'Murder is wrong, don't do it'?

Well if they are enacting scenes from and Academy Award winning movie then what's the issue?

 

[Byron_Clanger]

I just think it's odd that slavery and terrorist attacks are something that's considered 'whacky' in big 2024

 

[Foxman98]

Would’ve thought on the woke scale slavery probably higher than 9/11 given this is Australia

FWIW, I've worked at a venue that Carr has held shows at, and staff are notified beforehand of potentially offensive content and can withdraw their availability for the event if they want. (And same for any similar events.)

I suspect this is commonplace.

It is Commonplace, but the perpetually offended Karen's don't care

I just showed Tom Morris tweet to my 70yr old Mum, who was a bit of a Karen during Covid.
She said to me, 'Wait what? how is that worthy of a fine, let a lone a match suspension'

If I showed my Mum a tweet penned by Tom Morris she wouldn’t be so concerned about the content of it, but, she’d give Morris a solid serving. She’s never forgiven him over his potty mouth…..

A pub I go to from time to time sometimes has lingerie staff and sometimes topless.

I assume all staff get to choose if they work those shifts.

Swanny the voice of reason. If the AFL are going to town on the GWS team. It shows how hypocritical they are as Geelong should have been fined many times over the years for many of the same antics.

Dillon and Kane are about as useful to the AFL, as Donald Trump at a pro womens rights conference.

Didn't Dane Swan and his mates beat up a cleaner in 2003 and received no jailtime for it?

I mean... i would agree with them...

 

["The Roar Is Back"]

The impersonation that sunk
GWS players .

 

[Bostonian]

Yeah those kind of people talk more about slavery in the 1800s than slavery in 2024.

Clubs players set a midget on fire.

So Sexually abusing Women is just a, 'Clear Breach of Trust'

 

[HairyO]

Most patrons won’t GAF what GWS boys think though.

They wont be having any more sportsmans nights youd think.

"We have a private function room but will release CCTV footage".

 

[Some Idiot]

Let’s be real here why couldn’t they all just get fines and “suspended” match bans. I get the PR side but do we need players suspended as it is players get banned for making a tackle these days

They suspend the fringe players and youngsters and give the 'stars' a slap on the wrist, all very tactical.

 

[andy_20]

I mean... i would agree with them...

So you'd be happy if the AFL brought in yet another empty virtue signaling initiative to let us all know Murder is wrong & we shouldn't do it?

 

[NaturalDisaster]

They wont be having any more sportsmans nights youd think.

"We have a private function room but will release CCTV footage".

Priivate function room just means it's only for people who booked or were invited.

it doesn't literally mean anything goes.

They will, they'll just do what the NRL does

Ridiculous hey

No more footy club end of season pissups there, yeah. But I suspect they would be fine with that

 

[andy_20]

Ridiculous hey

Yea it is, but we live in Idiocracy so it's what I've come to expect

There will be Pissups, just nobody will know about them other than the players.
