Hey guys, TK doesn't respect me as a person at all. How will i sleep at night!

 

[schmuttt]

Pretty clear there is a difference between the two videos, the one with his colleague is bad but the other one is much worse.

How stupid do you have to be to record yourself saying that though far out. This isn’t like it’s stuff dragged out from when he was 15 either, bloke is 30+ and this is from the last few years.

Probably with a nightlight like G2B

Did he record himself or was he being recorded.

Not sure if you’re familiar with WhatsApp but the message is from him and there is an option to record yourself talking rather than type, which is what he has done.

My bad thought you were talking about the video not the audio record.
I dunno I prefer to record all my lesbian conversations takes too long to type

As for your debate with Imissfrosty I get both sides. I think I’m much more lenient towards people who are younger on this stuff, I know for a fact I said some cringe shit on social media in my late teens/early 20s and it was the main reason I deleted basically everything I’d posted up to a certain year. Morris is over 30 and should know wayyyy better with this stuff, even if it’s private he almost needs to be punished for the stupidity of allowing it to be so easily accessible. The really bad video looks like he’s talking to a random person who has come up to him, in that case it’s not really private.

Yeah for the record the second ones alot worse than the first but it's not relevant to my point. Part of me likes a journo is copping this after recording and ****ing over sportspeople and celebrities since media started. But I don't like it.

 

[Bluelegs]

Jeez that's all f’ed. He's obviously a campaigner of a bloke but private conversations shouldn't be leaked and cost you your job, exactly the same if you were a player or admin.

I think you're entitled to do whatever you want in private.

I tend to agree, but you've got to be dumb as **** to be a public figure and record yourself saying shit like that. Especially about your current coworkers.

 

[Proper Gander]

I tend to agree, but you've got to be dumb as fu** to be a public figure and record yourself saying sh*t like that. Especially about your current coworkers.

Really, really dumb. But he comes across as a pretty big ego, so is likely one of those people who can’t picture being wrong or that there could ever be repercussions. It’s particularly stupid in his job too. None of these people would be unfamiliar with the idea that photos, texts, videos and comments in social media groups can be (and are) exposed publically from time to time. Very few would have any conscience publishing it if the person involved was an AFL player and they could get a scoop.

I get the argument about leaking private conversations, but at the same time, if you say things that are sufficiently objectionable in a private group you shouldn’t be surprised if it gets passed on in some form. There was some kind of scandal type thing along those lines at my last work. A group of guys had formed some stupid friendship group about 20 years ago. Part of their dumb joke is that they started to run it like it was a club - called it the knights of something - made up admissions criteria. Somehow it became a thing and continued on for 15 years with different personnel. Became like a fraternity for sad mostly 30s and 40s who wanted to feel like big - new staff (men) were scoped out as potential members and stuff, and we all knew about it because a few new employees had been asked to a couple of events, didn’t like it at all and told a few people why they weren’t into it. Persistent dirty jokes and revolting comments about women colleagues particularly ones who were senior to them (and there were lots because this group weren’t exactly Mensa candidates), some sharing of pr0n and stuff like that. Ultimately someone introduced to the group was clearly uncomfortable with getting materials rating women colleagues in terms of who they would **** first, sending around stupid photoshops involving colleagues etc and turned some of the emails into HR. And a whole lot of people lost their jobs. Good.

Nobody wants to work alongside people who do this kind of thing. So Morris’ rights to privacy to be vile aren’t something I will spend too long defending. I imagine the conversation and video aren’t the only two examples either

Yeah I'm actually of the view that the first recording where he speaks about his co-worker is way worse and way more damaging to his career than the second. Regardless of it being private, if you record yourself saying shit about your co-workers and it gets out you only have yourself to blame.

The second sounds pretty bad but it's way more vague and is missing context.

Tom is also one of the most unlikable media personalities I've ever seen which is always going to bite him in the court of public opinion.

That first one that was leaked really pisses me off actually. The person leaking it was obviously trying to take down Morris, but didn’t give a shit about simultaneously circulating information, true or not, about the woman he was talking about. Not very pretty.

It’s interesting how a lot of people don’t like Morris by pure instinct. He has always made my skin crawl. All of this is a bit shocking, but somehow not many people find it surprising.

 

[Proper Gander]

I guess the good thing in all of this is that we have instantly gone from being the hyped up defending premier back to a mention on page whatever. It’s great. I can live with Melbourne flying under the radar for a bit

Yeah the person who leaked it should have given it directly to the woman in question, let her make the decision as to what to do with it.

Just gotta keep doing our thing.

Would have anyway since Carlton rolled Richmond last night. Carlton are officially the team to beat.

On the Morris situation, my mind can't help thinking the woman told Morris her preference just to get the sleaze off her back. Obviously not true but can't help thinking that.

 

[slackboy72]

An this is what happens when you talk to children.

How do I downvote this childish bullshit?

Could be?

Or he outed her genuinely, or he totally made it up because he is a dick. I have lost count of the number of women I know who have been called frigid or a lesbian because they weren't interested in being groped by some troglodyte

Hover the cursor over the 'like' react symbol and it gives you more options

 

[schmuttt]

Morris reminds me of my cousin who I can’t stand so don’t feel too bad about the stuff getting leaked honestly. Shit people tend to be friends with other shit people.

 

[Jamurp]

The less Tom Morris’ in the media the better, unfortunately if you got rid of them all there’d be nobody left. His comments were disgusting even if not for public consumption, feel so sorry for the colleague who has been outed publicly, he deserves everything he gets.

The Bevo stuff doesn’t bother me, just good that we clearly piss off the Dogs so much, I really don’t think we pay them much attention at all in comparison.

 

[Gysberts2Bate]

The Western are a joke of a club and their self-destruction is amusing to me, but leaving aside that the Bevo stuff isn’t that big of a deal in the scheme of things, will clearly change quickly in the wind. Tom Morris is obviously a grub and this couldn’t haven’t happened to a worse bloke so aside from his execution Bevo was probably justified. But still, it takes all kinds of issues on his end to react the way he did as well and it can only serve to destabilise them even further. I’ve never rated his coaching and I can’t stand the myth that is The Western which essentially hinges on their cheaty month of football in 2016 and is otherwise bookended largely by incompetence during the Bevo era that has flown spectacularly uncriticised . But complacency and self-adulation breeds mediocrity so long may it continue.

 

[Toump Ass]

Enjoying seeing this ********'s reputation destroyed.
This is the same campaigner who was working at MFC and leaking private stuff to get a "leg up" as a sports journalist, isn't it?

**** him.

fu** him.

Yeah from the twitter of Hogan when he was at freo

Honest leech. Had a job at Melbourne football club that was private and used it and leaked private conversations to get a leg up. Not even involving me but genuine leech of a personality. Have never seen a faker figure in media.
