It's Twitter. Anyone who uses it regularly has to be mentally flawed in the first place.

Never knew that "circle" game had any other meaning that if you see it you get punched haha
Video shows AFL star Paddy McCartin’s sickening alleged punch attack
Video has revealed the moment former No. 1 draft pick Paddy McCartin lost the plot during a VFL game on Saturday.www.news.com.au
"Reporter Tom Browne on Monday told Triple M McCartin is likely looking at a suspension between four and eight weeks. “It can only be described as a pretty wild, Andrew Gaff, Barry Hall-like punch,” he said."
Surely Gaff has a case for slander.
Looked similar to Gaff in the fact that it was a swinging arm motion, after doing the same thing to get him to release his jumper.
Paddy should claim delayed concussion which means he had no real idea what he was doing, you know, like Jordan DeGoey. He must have a head knock up his sleeve to draw on, the guy has the field awareness of a headless scarecrow.

To be fair, it has been widely reported the same gesture has been used to show solidarity among white supremecists. I'm sure NicNat for one would know the connotation other than the circle game and not be keen on it.
Thank god those Brisbane Lions scumbags roped Jamaine Jones into their white power signalling session or everyone would have known right away what they were up to!
I don't want the players to take no joy in their victories, but it'd be nice if they'd stop doing stupid jokes in derby photos.

Send them back to Pauline in Queensland before they corrupt the lot of us!
Which is pretty much the point. The boys are showing bit of ignorance or lack of respect for the community in general here.

Feel like this is at least partially on the media manager. After the Harry Highpants thing a couple years back, they should have learned to remind the players before photo sessions about expectations.
What was wrong with the Harry Highpants joke?

As worrying as this will be for some...
not everyone spends a great deal of time reading, watching or otherwise getting up to speed on whatever "edgy" s**t racists/antifa/rwnj/PETA/whackjobgroupofyourchoice are getting up to.

This has no legs at all. Just a couple of people scouring photos to find something they can misinterpret and get upset about on behalf of someone else who probably couldn't give a rats arse about. Cancel the cancellers!

If 'white supremacists' adopt tim tams as their official white power tasty treat, are we not allowed to have them anymore, without being called a racist?

Someone on Twitter is already tagging Hungry Jacks asking for them to stop sponsoring us. 
but in all honesty, it obviously had no racist meaning by the players (was a common game in high school where if you got someone to look at it you could punch them) but probably best not to do that symbol any more.

When the O.K. Sign Is No Longer O.K. (Published 2019)
Here is how a hand gesture long seen as innocuous was appropriated to signify “white power.”
UK:
OK hand sign added to list of hate symbols
An anti-hate group says the finger-and-thumb sign is being used as an "expression of white supremacy".
www.bbc.com
Australia:
The 'OK' hand gesture is now a hate symbol, but it's also a crucial part of sign languages
The “OK” hand gesture has come under increased scrutiny recently, after the alt-right movement claimed it stood for “white power”. Sign language communities are pushing back to reclaim the sign.
So they finally caught up with Malcolm in the middle and thought this might be funny.
Talk about making a Malcolm out of a molehill.

The ultimate white power symbol...

And the vast majority of people have no idea or interest in any of it
Here’s the thing, if you genuinely think the players were using that sign as a white supremacy signal (they weren’t) then call them out for it. But if the thing they were doing meant something completely unrelated then why even raise it unless you’re being a dickhead to fabricate some sort of gotcha moment
