Good to hear Ports coach (forgot his name) give Kotch a serve last night.
Action would be taken under the AFL's anti discrimination policy .Lets just say that Richmond player Billy Blogs continually uses racist terms towards Bachar Houli at training even after being told not to by the club, what action should the club take and what law (if any) has Billy committed?
Kotch = Koch = KockGood to hear Ports coach (forgot his name) give Kotch a serve last night.

Using the word gay or ****** as an insult is unacceptable as it implies that there is something wrong with being gay.To be honest I hate "Political Correctness" in relation to words. He clearly wasnt meaning homosexual when he said fggt, certainly wasnt being homophobic, if people are going to get offended then they are the ones with the problem. Australians swear...big deal...we all use fuq etc not in any relation at all to sex, there are plenty of other examples but the point is, words evolve and assume different meaning. The whole English language evolves so it's dumb (another example) to get funny about it.

You could say that about any insult.
****** = offensive to mentally disabled
****** = implies masterbating is bad
Stupid = offensive to less intelligent
Dumb = offensive to those that can't speak
At the start of the season when Port were flying and Jake King had a couple of not so private catch-ups with Toby Mitchell, Kochie exclaimed something along the lines of, "We would have dealt with it more firmly, stuff like that doesn't happen at Port Adelaide"...which we all thought strange, an opposition teams Pres talking about discipline amongst our club. Now that a guy associated with their club has got into a bit of strife...the question is, will any of our employees remark about their disciplinary actions....I think no.

The difference between calling someone a W***er to a F***** or R*****ed is that I don't know any person who is offended or embarrassed or harrassed for Masturbating.You could say that about any insult.

He's using it as an Insult by implying that there is something wrong with them because they are F****s. He wanted to use a word more insulting than 'men' to describe the Adelaide supporters. That's the context he used.I understand that for some people they would use it in that context, but people have used "Homosexual" in a manner in which is far nastier than the use of "gay" as a throwaway line so really it's just the context that's important IMO. As mentioned, using fuq, biitch, dumb, etc etc actually have absolutely no association with the original meaning of the word usually... It's just silly to get wound up by it IMO.
Anyway, a different topic for a different time/forum I guess.
