The contracts and paychecks aren't enough for them to realise it's their job?Not disagreeing with your point. But I wonder if GWS players (or any AFL players for that matter), realise they’re being held to a standard expected in a corporate environment.
I think that’s where the disconnect lies. Maybe the players were properly educated on what is/isn’t appropriate at an off venue private function and it fell on deaf ears? Or maybe they’ve been completely blindsided.
Footy players not understanding that it's a work function suggest they are dumber than anyone gives them credit for.
The fact that they think it's funny is a whole other issue. Dark humour is one thing, but at least there is some humour in it.
