If you’re talking about the slur, that’s a load of rubbish.

You can criticise someone’s actions and still be “on their side.”
Nah there were many that called him to be banned for 6+ weeks, even 10 was mentioned that’s not being on his side.
 
Like who?
Brucetiki was a big one on it. Not going to go back more, but there were some people hysterical about it.
Make it 10-12 weeks a pop the players will quickly sharpen up

Yep, and I still stand by that statement.

Once the suspensions hit 10-12+ games the players will quickly learn to adapt.
Thats fine if people have that view, but let’s not pretend everyone was on his side.

That’s absolute BS. The crime and the time have absolutely nothing to do with that statement

Yes you can, but the AFL were 100% not on Rankines side, If the PR came back that they had to rip up Rankines registration they would have done it without thinking twice. Those in the media were not in Rankines side, they were more interested in running their moral feigned outrage campaign for their portfolios. The only ones on Rankines side were a majority of fans and the club.

the timing is interesting. Monday after we got pumped by the pies in our first final. Could well be a sicko crows fan angry with izak for not being out there.

Probably the offended LGBQTA+ crowd out for blood we were all told should be offended but yet none actually were.

I think more likely some clown who had bet on the Crows for the flag and blamed Rankine personally that the last $30 in his Sportsbet account was going to disappear

Yeah what he did was bad and I'm still pissed off at him for hurting the team's finals chances. That being said, the pile on from the media was ****ing gross and these ghouls are accredited by the AFL. The same AFL that supposedly cares so much about the mental health of it's players.

I was talking about crows fans, not the afl

The mental health stuff is just PR rubbish , it’s why let journos use their jobs to fuel personal vendettas against players
 
I'm assuming Willie Rioli is due to be arrested any day now then also.
