Rumour Jeremy Finlayson under investigation - 3 game suspension

[Carringbush2010]

Not what I said - at all.

Targetting groups means those groups are not welcome - there’s more important things to hate - like Trump.

You stated and I quote

'IF you turn football into a hostile environment............' like it isn't to begin with.

Football is a psychologically hostile environment. Period.

But there is a line. Unless you're a bit psycho.

Clearly doesn't given he complained about it on the podcast.

What happened on the podcast? Haven’t heard it.

Homophobia is ripe in this thread. It's actually disgusting.

Could you point to some examples of homophobia. I haven't seen any in the posts I've read or those you quoted on this page.

There's quite a few things ripe in this thread. One being your carry-on.

Id bet to wager I served in Greek armed forces for three years. Seems majority of Australians that have gone woke and puushing a silly radicalization agenda will probably have nervous breakdowns in first day. A global conflict will be coming and the woke mob will be hiding under their beds with women and children and leave it to us to die for their radicalized ideology. You are aware that woke is considered a terrorist threat in some nations.

This comes from investment companies pushing boardroom agendas as they buy boardroom votes.

Dig deep and you will be interested in what you will find and why. All it takes is to read a few annual reports of these investment houses. The undertones are alarming....

The most important thing for anyone that he is a free man free to express his thoughts and not necessarily dressed up in away to appease everyone nor everyone agrees with. Hurting someones feelings isn't a crime.

He is free to express his thoughts. He just can't play footy for a couple of weeks.

We are all happily married and built our family and wish the same for our kids ... The only radicalized agenda they will be taught is from me and the wife not institutions.

This sounds like a confession. Also all of this looks like you're working far too hard at being offended by someone being sanctioned for using a homophobic slur for it to be a rational reaction. You've gone from free speech to political oppression, military tribalism, and globalist financial conspiracy and it's starting to look like you might have your head so far up your own rabbit hole that you can no longer think rationally.

Can you outline specifically what's actually wrong with discouraging homophobia?

Oh for the days when only good land owning males could vote!

Yes as I've already stated.

Using the real definition, not the Evo Revised Dictionary.

Suns defender Wil Powell suspended for five games for homophobic slur in QClash

Gold Coast Suns defender Wil Powell is handed a five-game suspension by the AFL's Integrity Unit for directing a homophobic slur towards a Brisbane opponent during Sunday's game.

5 weeks, wow. Finlayson got 3 weeks for what I thought was the worst thing you can call a gay person...
Did Powell develop a new, even more grotesque homophobic slur?

There were weeks added because Finlayson just got suspended a few weeks ago for the exact same thing. If it happens again in 3 weeks with another player and the AFL are serious about stamping it out? Give them 7.

The AFL opted for a harsher penalty for Powell given the proximity to the Finlayson incident in the hope this will deter similar conduct in the future.

"It is extremely disappointing to be dealing with a similar incident in only a matter of weeks," AFL general counsel Stephen Meade said.

The whole self reporting thing is interesting. Wonder what happens if you don’t - and deny you said it.

will be explored and eventually come out, likely facing harsher punishment

It’s a compound interest thing; the next bloke to do it will get 7 weeks and then so on and so forth.

This competition is turning itself into a farce with its inconsistent, arbitrary policy made up on the fly.

Same as BF policy on penalties.

Why don't they do this with sling tackles and everything else?
