Rumour Jeremy Finlayson under investigation - 3 game suspension

[edie]

‘Tipped me over the edge’ is a pretty intense thing to say and then not elaborate on or explain what exactly he means by that

 

[Chief]

From not pissed off to pissed off?

 

[Underarm]

"Alright I'm going to get you to do my podcast, you can talk about your past week and reiterate how sorry you are and then we can chat about the important subject of how my diagnosis has affected you and dealing with it on the footy field."

So he’s not sorry anymore now that there were consequences

What a flop

 

[Underarm]

It's actually a really interesting podcast about the toll his wife's diagnosis has had on him and his playing career ect.

Completely ruined by the fact that Finlayson confirms thinks he should be able to get away with homophobia.

 

[joe444]

Meh. I thought three weeks was too much as well.

Let's not make him a talisman for all the LGBTI prejudice of the past.

 

[Unfazed]

"I take full responsibility but I'll be pxxxx off if I cop a suspension". Such contrition.

 

[Wargreymon90]

Ugh. Shut up Jeremy

AFL should tack on an extra week for the fake lack of remorse

People need to learn that if going to say something best not to leave it open to the interpretation of others

 

[Outtatym]

Not a lot going on inside that head it seems

 

[eclipse]

Every right to be pissed. Complete farce.

 

[Rustin Cohle]

This guy has always been a massive flog, on and off field.

All the sensitivity training is all honestly BS. Does anyone really think that someone's attitude changes because they attended a mandatory seminar for a few hours?

Regarding Finalyson's comments on the podcast, he's done pretty well to spin what he said. Most have had the PR department working over time haha

 

[Maddo11]

I think he's fine if he just says "... got myself a three week suspension... " which very well might be what he meant. He'd be right to be very frustrated at his choice of words

 

[Toump Ass]

AFL statement is a bit of a wank innit.
"To be clear, without the full and frank admissions, apologies and contrition that Finlayson showed, the sanction would have included a longer suspension."

Of course he showed contrition the dumb campaigner got caught on microphone being a homophobe lmao.

So it turns out Jeremy Floglayson's contrition and apologies weren't in fact genuine.

What a shocking turn of events. Unbelieavable.

I can't believe it.

In a surprise to no one, outed homophobe reveals rotten personality

 

[Underarm]

He apologised again, time to lop another week off.

I can't believe it.

10 weeks!

 

[Toump Ass]

10 weeks!

I mean, the AFL literally released a statement saying his PISSWEAK sentence was because of his genuine remorse, clearly it wasn't that genuine if he thinks a 3 week sentence for being a homophobic dickhead isn't justifiable.

Really poor use of words and all the laughter made it sound worse. Sounded like someone who isn't sorry or leant anything. Also think he needs to be careful he doesn't try to play the victim.

None of us are perfect but I think he should keep a low profile a while.

I was shocked when the respect for women course that Tarryn Thomas got put through didn't seem to put an end to his issues.

"When re-thinking my comments today, it's clear that I should have provided more context," he said.

"On reflection, I should have explained that I was bitterly disappointed that I said what I did during the game and I am bitterly disappointed that I put myself and the club in the position I did. That is what I am most upset with.

"What I said on the field that night was totally unacceptable. I knew that at the time and I know it now. I stress, I have no issue with the sanction at all."
