Oppo Camp Non-Essendon Football Thread XIV

[Mr Mojo Risin]

Because the AFL, and the therefore the football field is a place of work.
Even if the touching was accepted or consensual, it is inappropriate to do in a workplace. Imagine someone and touching someone like that in a factory, or an office - you would have HR in like a shot.

I work in an office which has a couple who have kids and there are strict shows of PDA that they are allowed to do in public at work, and I can guarantee grabbing each others butt aint one. It has the distinct possibility that it makes people around them uncomfortable. If you are on TV like a footballer then it is extended out then.

Yep and that's the angle I took. Definitely a workplace issue, I mainly just take issue with the pile on media public shaming that happens more than anything else. The "not a good look commentary" needs to be defined about why because education is important. I don't think young boys who grow up watching this should understand anything for the commentary other than an inappropriate workplace issue. The messaging should be clear that it's perfectly fine to touch other boys if it's consensual.

 

[Mr Mojo Risin]

That's what she said...

I'll see myself out.

Given the situation I would have gone with "That's what he said..." but still, nicely done.

Couple of Melbourne players decided to give each other some impromptu prostate exams.

This kind of thing?

IF Melbourne are only a 3 goal better side than us then they have some serious issues to address. More early draft picks and big end player top ups than us for not much more result.

Hawks were always going to come out firing today. Always send their retiring players off well.

hopefully will collapse at half time - Suns to come back from 50 points down.

 

[Albertross]

Suns out tanking us.

 

[yodellinhank]

Suns out tanking us.

Shoulda kept Worsfold

 

[FLYING DEES]

Suns out tanking us.

Sorry for invading your thread but I did wonder what Essendon supporters would think of a blatant tank (as a Melb supporter I have a level of expertise) by GC Suns. The Suns have already been gifted a priority pick and, of course, have access to gun players through the dodgy Academy crap

Meh. I mean yeah, ideally we'd have the better draft pick but sometimes this happens. I'm more pissed off that Rankine didn't get that behind against us then this would be academic

 

[DERO]

Far out I hate Hawthorne.

 

[rumply]

grrrrr

 

[sameolds33]

Awful game, even if the Suns are tanking they should be worried about undoing all the good work they've done this year with this performance

I don’t mind Kelly Underwood as a commentator. Some of the lower profile fox commentators are quite good.

 

[SherbertLemon]

christ, they're a shit football club.

 

[eth-dog]

I agree. Huddo, Kelly, Speedy, Howard are all solid commentators.

 

[Beerfish]

You had one ****ing job gc..

 

[Mr Mojo Risin]

**** you Hawthorne.

 

[citizen-erased]

Meh. I mean yeah, ideally we'd have the better draft pick but sometimes this happens. I'm more pissed off that Rankine didn't get that behind against us then this would be academic

And the stupid comeback against the Hawks

How dare you
