Minson offensive comments

[rustyg70]

What is the AFL becoming??
I understand if it is racial ,threatening or just down right wrong but,
If you can't take a sledge over your mum you should go back to breast feeding.

Is it just me or does it seem like both Adelaide clubs like dobbing on players??

Hilarious to see the AFL's bullshit feel-good process in full swing. Was it just last week that Demetriou raved on about how good Simon Garlick is? Sure enough Minson get's a week and has to attend some Mickey Mouse education program. Garlick is one of many AFL puppets.

If I was a league player I would be extremely disappointed that Pearce and the PAFC have had a cry about this. Once it is in the public forum the AFL will lap up the punishment to try and make themselves look classy.

Shit like this is said on just about every football field around the country and nearly everyone else is a big enough man to just get on with it. To compare it to racism is absurd.

I've got no doubt big Minson is a bit of a plonker but Pearce & The PAFC are a joke. Soft and weak.

Would Pearce complain if he gets called a snitch next .

 

[NSWCROW]

he is probaly upset that the game has gone so soft.

That or the realisation he's in the bottom 5% of active players in ability has finally caught up with him

....The main thing for me is that Minson can't hold his head up and make any claims on being a decent bloke in the footy world. He's now a multiple offender when it comes to going to far with his comments. I don't care how high his TER was or how good he is with a saxophone. He will be remembered as a Moo.

At least a guy like Ballantyne doesn't claim to be one thing when he's another.

Haha next time Freo play the dogs I hope Ballantyne plays on the ball and he can sledge Minson about being such a bad sledger and getting caught twice. It would a good laugh to watch the little pest get under the skin of the big oaf.

If that's actually what he said this is a disgrace. If he did infer it was rape or forceful I can understand a suspension but if not this is all ridiculous. Graham Cornes is also showing himself as the hypocrite we all know he is.

 

[RonSon]

Alright mate, think what you want, from one supposed incident in a bar
Just ignore the facts of all the good he does.

Awesome so all I need to do is some community service and I can be a complete f-wit and escape scrutiny for it?


Love it.

Definitely a track record there of being dirty dobbers.

Selecting a quote in isolation, bravo.

Big Will is an extremely cultured and sophisticated young man. I think he can play the cello classicly or something.

Perhaps he spent some time studying Percy Grainger?

 

[GoalSneak38]

I've been sledged many times, but even at the local level players haven't gone and said anything about my family. I think it's just wrong to cross that line personally.

Waste of time sledging the blokes on the bench

Use your head, why on earth would that be what Minson actually said? Think it through this time

Read the rest of my post, only stating whats being reported. No one actually knows what was said

I think you're being unfair. I have no doubt this bloke is the gun mid fielder in the 1's for the A Grade division in whichever premier league he plays......taking multiple tags each week and being subjected to vicious sledgeing which would involve every sort of demeaning insult, except anything to do with his family

There have been several dogs fans in here saying lay off him he does a lot of community service. Yours was just the one I replied to.

 

[Gigantor]

I remember getting sledged once - some ugly bloke told me I was hopeless - cut me up.

 

[HoneyBadger35]

McGinnity's comments to Petterd came out fairly quickly, within a day or so, anyone actually reporting Will's comments yet?

 

[Igloo]

They've also acknowledged the fact that what he said was incredibly stupid. I was saying that the people calling him scum don't know what they are talking about, since they just focus on what he has said on a footy field, because apparently that's the be-all and end-all in regards to a persons character.

Pretty soft if true.

People seem to struggle to comprehend the World has changed.

It doesn't really matter whether people believe the game has gone soft.
It is what it is.
It's the players' workplace and like most workplaces there are standards and guidelines regarding acceptable behaviour.
Minson has been deemed to cross the appropriate threshold and therefore has been suspended by his club.
A similar situation occurred last season with McGinnity and Petterd.
Whether the wording was the same is open to debate, but the general form & intention was clearly the same.
One obvious conclusion that can be drawn is that Minson is a slow learner.

[final fight]

Might as well pull the pin on the whole comp. This isn't the game i grew up loving. Another victory for the PC crowd. Men no longer play this game.

 

[Ghost of Grinter]

If thats all Minson then its a fair beat up over nothing.

Luckily for none of these AFL players, blokes like Charles Barkley never played
AFL - otherwise these players would cower in the change rooms due to mental breakdown.

Bit of an over-reaction - there's nothing manly about stirring up another player by suggesting you are fornicating with their family members, even if there is a hint of truth to it
