That's why you ARE worthy.

Cleverest post ever. Well done!

And Fox have named their Mid Year AA team. Got no freaking idea why they'd name Cripps captain. Surely Big Maxy has dibs on that one.

But it's NOT mid season

Perhaps you need to brush up on your comprehension skills.
My post has not one single opinion, nor did I challenge anybody else’s opinion.
Don’t like the facts? Deal with it!

The charter of our club is first and foremost to promote and develop the game of Australian Rules football.
The Pride guernsey is the club making a statement to the broader community that we stand with the minority to end ongoing, but thankfully declining, discrimination, abuse and generally unfair treatment and that we, as a club, welcome, encourage and provide a safe environment for the LGBTQI community, from any club, to participate in our great game.

The guernsey is not about giving these ppl “their own jumper” but I do think it is wonderful they are afforded an opportunity to make two loud statements when they attend our games, just as it is wonderful that non-indigenous ppl can make an ongoing statement of support wearing the indigenous one.

I’d prefer we do it without adding colours also, but I’m not real fussed about most of our sponsors, loud music at the games or Sweet Caroline either but none of them detract from my passion for our team.
The limit of my visual support for the club is a nice plain red scarf that I own… wanna wear a Pride guernsey? Fine. Indigenous one? Fine. Swans merch from head to toe and four layers deep? Fine. Blue jeans and a leather jacket? Fine. What other ppl wear has zero impact on my enjoyment and I really can’t grasp how it is even a talking point.

You do raise a fair point about promoting equality but we are also sponsored by the Qatar government airline. Qatar rated fairly low on the human rights registrar.

The club is making a statement that money also talks and has done so for the last 6 years. Not a big issue given FIFA handed the World Cup to Qatar.

At times it would be simpler if football clubs stuck to the code they know. Avoiding the political double standards that come with making statements.

Again proves that Touk simply won’t be noticed by the press until he gets himself traded to a Vic club.

And you could pick another team that would be a 50:50 chance of beating this one. Arguing over the number of angels on the head of a pin. Total waste of time.

1 week its a mute point tho considering its looking like a 10 week hamstring injury.

1 week its a mute point tho considering its looking like a 10 week hamstring injury.

It's the principle. It's still on his record. Absolute BS. One of the fairest players I've ever watched with an unblemished record and he's now got that against him. For what was clearly an accident.

 

[Crust]

Striking, no. But it was careless, high and late, so a week is about right.
