I don’t disagree with anything you have said but what the **** has his got to do with anything?Just pathetic behaviour targeting what may be a Mum.
Nah people bring that shit up all the time but it has no bearing on what happened at all. What Bailey Smith did would not be better or worse if the women had kids or not. That’s why it doesn’t matter.Seeing as this is the rabbit hole you want to go down after a great win, but what doesn’t it. Would Bailey seriously be ok if someone abused his Mum would no doubt be a similar age if she was abused in her workplace?
Far out, next you’ll be telling me it’s irrelevant that Chris Scott abused some young 20 year old something last week too given his position of power.
I watched some of the Broncos game this afternoon. There was a moment where a Canberra player ran up to a broncos player to taunt him about a mistake and then broncos player turned round and head butted him.
Both players got sent to the bin and the broncos received the penalty due to the Canberra player instigating the fight.
I wish the afl would do that. Probably too hard to officiate but it was quite refreshing.
What a game! My heart still hasn't stopped pounding. One of the best games I've ever seen.
I switched over to watch the McRib dominate at Wentworth when Carrigan got sent to the bin and they were being reamed. Missed it!
Chris Scott’s aggressive outburst towards a female AFL staff member was triggered by the presence of visually impaired reporter Matt “Spider” Lee at his post-match MCG press conference.PLAYERCARDSTARTChris Scott

Lee, a former SEN producer who hosts a weekly program for Vision Australia radio, was the accredited media figure at the centre of Scott’s blow up after Geelong’s big qualifying final win over Brisbane on September 5.
Geelong has declined to explain why Scott was upset about Lee’s presence or detail what was said between Scott and the junior AFL staffer.
Lee said he was “shocked” and saddened to discover that his attendance at the conference had sparked Scott’s exchange with the female media official, which prompted her to later break down in tears.
The dual premiership coach apologised to the woman five days later following discussions between league officials and Cats CEO Steve Hocking.
Lee, 45, is legally blind and suffers from an hereditary eye condition that makes his vision gradually deteriorate.
He is well known within football circles and regularly attends post-game press conferences with a support worker.
“I was a little bit shocked – and sad – to hear about it to be honest,” Lee said of his link to the incident.
“I must admit, I am a bit rattled by it.
“It’s just really disappointing that someone would say something like that behind my back.”
But the club made contact with Lee on Monday morning to reassure him that he was “welcome” at all future Cats press conferences.
“Matt is welcome at any Geelong media opportunity and there is no concern with his attendance at Chris Scott’s post-game press conferences,” a club spokesperson said.PLAYERCARDSTARTChris Scott

Lee could come face-to-face with Scott again after Friday night’s blockbuster Geelong-Hawthorn preliminary final at the MCG.
The media figure is formally accredited to attend AFL matches under an arrangement between the league and Vision Australia.
100%! Scott has become very unlikeable, entitled and arrogant over the last few years, I really hope Geelong go down this week. And Smith is exactly the same.I still can't believe how easily these incidents were pushed under the rug following Scott and Bailey's vile behaviour, particulalry in this day and age when I thought the AFL was very strong on respect to anyone and in light of dishing harsh or rather just penalties for homophobic language yet it accepts prominent Geelong people being bully's and aggressive to women just doing their jobs.
Smith should have got at least two weeks if not longer given Rankin and other penalties and Rioli's and Scott should have been fined way more than what Clarkson got for his sledge on that Sainst player.
Just BS by the AFL
Fages is without a shadow of doubt the most humble, likeable and loveable of the preliminary final coaches.
I have found Fly rather annoying and condescending of late, he has been Magpieafied sadly.McRae isn't bad either and he has a massive connection to us as well obviously. The other two though, yuck...even with Scott's connection to us.
Agreed..He's gone full Collingwood and that's never good.I have found Fly rather annoying and condescending of late, he has been Magpieafied sadly.
McRae isn't bad either and he has a massive connection to us as well obviously. The other two though, yuck...even with Scott's connection to us.
This Zac Merrett trade talk will be so

Bailey Sniff just doesn't want to buy into the Geelong culture. Well only partially with the Coton On sponsorship and cheap farm land. But he just doesn't fit what Geelong 'are about'.The woman in question looked like a 40-50 year old just doing her job at an open training session.
If the AFL was serious, he should be suspended like Rioli was and also face a massive fine.
Just pathetic behaviour targeting what may be a Mum.
Have no doubt if this was a non Victorian player the Victorian mafia would be in high gear with the AFL in tow.

I wonder how long they can actually handle this sort of behaviour. They keep winning so I question whether they care or not. I wonder if the Cats weren't doing so well this season if there would be a different response from them.
