Rumour Jeremy Finlayson under investigation - 3 game suspension

[TubbsFarquhar]

Precious society.
What about the word “c***”
Isn’t that disrespectful to woman?
w***er?
Read heads getting called ranga?
Players getting called ugly?
The list goes on. Sticks and stones.
It’s an absolute joke.

What were your thoughts on Tex's suspension?

 

[Foxx]

It’s not that I don’t have resilience, it’s just that I’d rather get paid to sleep in and catch up on video games than go to work.

I assume a bit of sarcasm in this. But doing this every once in a while is OK. Do it often and no one respects you. Plus you're cheating your own life.

Absolutely.

w***er?

You tell me.

 

[SuperMal]

Omfg. I work in construction. That’s not even in the top 5 worst things I hear.
Who the * cares.

“I work in construction, ergo I’m a man and I’m resilient.”

You’re also in an industry noted for it’s sexism, it’s injury rate due to ‘resilient males’ not following clear safety instructions and an industry known to employ people with a relatively low cognitive intelligence, literacy and emotional intelligence.

Think about that next time you want to use your employment as a recommendation towards allowing homophobic slurs.

Andrew Gaff getting suspended for hitting Brayshaw is more ridiculous. That's how not ridiculous it is.

Or Maynard not getting suspended last year for hitting the other Brayshaw (that precipitated his retirement).

If Finlayson played for a big Club like Carlton or the Pies, he would not have been suspended.

Wrong.

Wrong. Homophobia is Homophobia no matter which club they play for.

 

[Foxx]

Its ok supporters every week bullying the opposition players and umpires from the stands.

 

[DazalenkoUBewty]

Wrong.

Wrong. Homophobia is Homophobia no matter which club they play for.

But it wasn't homophobia.

 

[Underarm]

But it wasn't homophobia.

Wrong. Using that word as an insult is homophobia, no matter who you say it to.

 

[Golden Sun]

But it wasn't homophobia.

Yes it was.

 

[DazalenkoUBewty]

Yes it was.

Nope

 

[Golden Sun]

Nope

He used a word that has long been used to denigrate and villify gay people. It's irrelevant if the person who he said it to is gay.

Yes, but he didn't mean it in a hateful way towards gay people.

 

[3207]

Yes, but he didn't mean it in a hateful way towards gay people.

We don’t know who the player was. Maybe that player is gay and it is an open secret amongst the players.

 

[Golden Sun]

Yes, but he didn't mean it in a hateful way towards gay people.

Obviously it's a word that is part of his vocabulary. In the heat of the moment you don't yell out unfamiliar words.

Move tf on

 

[Underarm]

Yes, but he didn't mean it in a hateful way towards gay people.

Time to log off Bigfooty Jeremy.

 

[DazalenkoUBewty]

Time to log off Bigfooty Jeremy.

Okay, Elton.

 

[Foxx]

Yes, but he didn't mean it in a hateful way towards gay people.

I partly agree. Alistair Clarkson called Webster a c***sucker, which he didn't mean in the literal meaning of the word.

But the thing is gay people have been historically dogged by straight people. It was a terrible problem. It's not just a word.

 

[Brian Daniel]

We don’t know who the player was. Maybe that player is gay and it is an open secret amongst the players.

Surely someone must know who it is? The Essendon players were very upset according to Eddie.Maybe the player in question is a well known gay and its known in Footy circles hence the abuse by Finlayson.

Maybe they do. But do we need to know?

Bad luck mate, maybe you'll think twice before you open your mouth next time.

Good mate. Next time you'll think about the effect those kinds of words have on LGBTQ+ people who have to put up with a lifetime of abuse.


Hope he get booed mercilessly when he returns if that's his attitude.
