Goldstein has been one of the AFL’s most durable players, managing at least 19 games in each of the past eight seasons. That’s what he has always done, through injury and patchy form, just plough on.

But rumours began to circulate on social media about Goldstein’s family situation and even a potential trade from the Kangaroos.

Some opponents even taunted the 190-gamer on the field about personal matters.

Once incident against Port Adelaide in Round 16, 2016, in particular stung him.


“Yeah it did. It surprised me,” he said.

“Personally I didn’t think you could go there but they did and I think it was more that they didn’t give me the chance to get off the leash.

“Every time I thought I was free I had someone else come at me, so I think that was why I struggled in that game.”

Probably had a crack at his religion?


I don't think so.
From the AFL website

Inclusion and Vilification
The AFL industry does not tolerate vilification in any form and is committed to ensuring safe, welcoming and inclusive environments for all people involved in Australian Football.

The AFL aims to address the issue of vilification and discrimination at all levels of Australian Football through the AFL Vilification and Discrimination Policy, which states:

“No League Participant or Club Official shall engage in conduct which may reasonably be considered to incite hatred towards, contempt for, ridicule of or discrimination against a person or group of persons on the ground of their:

  • Race;
  • Religion;
  • Gender;
  • Colour;
  • Sexual preference, orientation or identity; or
  • Special ability or disability.”
 
Doesn't say a lot ab9ut the actual issue. Presumably took a couple of years to sort out custody with the ex. Seems pretty rough that it could take that long. I'm guessing he was after primary custody which you'd think would be a long shot.

Well he’s a man so he’s screwed right off the bat. Abusive mother? That’s ok, alcoholic mother? That’s ok. Drug taking mother? That’s ok. Man with even a hint of an issue? Bad luck.
 
I would imagine it would have something to do with the supposed reason for leaving his wife.
You would expect so.

I would be ashamed if my fellow members were regularly involved in abusing opposition players.

The Tasmanian Government is a major sponsor currently of TWO teams. They - plus Federal Group and others - could clearly support a team.
If the Tassie Government is handing out major sponsorship, perhaps they can sponsor a team based in SA who are short a major sponsor or two

BTW, I thought Uni SA were on board with Port...

At some point in the 1,000,000 history of the Port Adelaide Football Club, they were called the magentas, or something. Magenta is Pantone 264.

It's 264 days until Ollie's contract runs out.

Why won't Ollie sign?

Damn! That dive alarm gonna be working overtime in the Port forward line.

As if the diving machines Gray and Whingegard aren't enough...Lindsay ****ing Thomas!

Rucci should start a dive counter.

As some stage it's gonna look like this

So, Port, the team where

- the only player ever fined for staging played
- Lindsay Thomas is playing
- Chad Wingard is playing
- Robbie Grey is playing

Okay, i think i get it now. Here's picture of Ken Hinkley:

Get it?

He's a stagecoach!

Oh come on, at least it's original. I never said it would be good.

EDIT: Geoffa32 it fits in well with this picture of Primus

Finally, got another story out of Port yesterday from the horse's mouth

Yet another Port player getting confused between his girlfriend and his ex-girlfriend

He tried to pull a Trump but the ex said, No, No, No.

WTF is it with that club?
