Opinion Non-Crows AFL 13: Offseason

[Mr_Moogle]

He knew exactly who he was interviewing and the views that might be expressed. What jumbo was saying is that if he’d issued a fake apology regarding offence caused, he’d have gotten away with it.

Not if the apology was "sorry to the people who were offended".

 

[Soggy2112]

That's why you vet guests before they come on the show. I don't see why anybody has to give Tredrea the benefit of the doubt and pretend he didn't know who he was platforming.

100%

Privilege comes with responsibility.

He has the privilege that people will listen to him and his content because of his platform. He has the responsibility to know who he is sharing that platform with and the likely repercussions of that.

This idea that podcasters are not in any way responsible for what their guests say is ridiculous to me. You choose who you invite on, and you choose what gets published and what does not.

in defense next year

Bottom 4 vibes move

I've just heard that Port Adelaide are going to try Todd Marshall in defense next year

Bottom 4 vibes move

Yeah my feeling is that he's not a defender.
I think he'd be just as likely to get a concussion as a defender as a forward too.

Imagine him and Thilthorpe body on body in the square

It'd be like when bergman played on tex in the trial game earlier this year

 

[1970crow]

Nowhere near as certain as you shitcanning the club on anything they do.

I would bet that if you listed 10 positive decisions made by the club, I’d agree or be neutral with at least 9. I’ll put a couple on the table just so you get the idea of the game.

Appointing Balme
Delisting Murphy
Pushing to reduce Rankine’s suspension
Thebarton

Ok, so now you list 10 decisions you reckon were good decisions.

And seeing that you liked that inane post, Mostyn and AFC979810 can play too.

But you won’t, because you know I’m right.

 

[StonesThrow]

Having them on already hints at your views. If you have them on your podcast talking absolute rubbish and you don't come close to challenging them, the implication is pretty clear that you agree with it.

 

[Iridescence]

Remember when Buckley was being trained by those guys and looked like this...

And the AFL never wanted it mentioned again?

That's the male equivalent of a butterface.

 

[MarcusP2]

Maybe, but the investment funds I’m referring to are the exact opposite. When your development is over-budget and the banks have walked away, these guys step in with rates around 20%. You miss payments and it climbs to 40 odd %. It’s all legal, they take security over every asset you have. But they’re not criminal and reality is that they’d be the only other option at that stage. There’s definitely a strong element of opportunism, but we’re talking about people that will be wiped out if they can’t get hold of the funds required.

Watch a few episodes of Grand Designs and you'll be encountering these 'non-bank lenders'.

Based on some of the other nonsense Tredders has spouted in recent times, he absolutely agrees with it.

 

[spenze]

Can’t be sorry to the people who weren’t offended

 

[Mr_Moogle]

Can’t be sorry to the people who weren’t offended

I doubt a half-hearted bullshit apology would have gone down well when everyone was already giving him the side eye for being a kook.

 

[Crowked]

Can anyone explain how Dougie Cochrane could qualify for Ports NGA?
I have read a bit and none of it has me convinced there is any merit in it. It’s got me puzzled.

 

[Bovo]

Can’t be sorry to the people who weren’t offended

Just learn to try harder. It’s important to be seen as inclusive. Only offending a handful is not very inclusive.

Funny how they decided to investigate their blood lines after they discovered he was good at football.

I bet if nether of the boys were good, non of this aboriginal blood lines would have been worried about.

Port Adelaide cheating the system again. Once a cheat, always a cheat.

With Josh Carr as head coach and involved can guarantee this club will use every dirty trick in the playbook.

He has form previously.

 

[spenze]

I doubt a half-hearted bullshit apology would have gone down well when everyone was already giving him the side eye for being a kook.

Nowadays, nobody accepts an apology; they want blood. Look at Rankine for instance, as he stepped off his flight, he gave an honest apology, acknowledging the hurt his words had caused (which is ****ing bullshit) and next day he was derided for the tone in his voice when he gave the apology and that he should give a proper one (Jon ****head Ralph).

All he had to do was say he was sorry to the people he offended by having that guest on. It isn't a "if you were offended" line but I sometimes wonder what folk want because it isn't an apology, even if that's what they say it is.

Yes, Tredders is batshit crazy but so are most of the population as far as I can see.

Was he the senior coach with 19 players on the field for North Adelaide?

 

[spenze]

Yeah the old what is more important, caring or being seen to care, cleaning an environment or protesting that the environment is unclean.

Slipping into censorship territory with that platforming comment. I prefer the old fashioned way where each person is responsible for their own words.

 

[kirky]

Was he the senior coach with 19 players on the field for North Adelaide?

Yes.

And he stated he knew nothing about it. As late John Elliot would say “pigs arse”.
