So they claim.

Going to be a plethora of embarrassing posts in hindsight.
I have a bump file on my computer containing many "interesting" posts.

I sometimes read them for a chuckle.
Some of the most entertaining are the ones expressing how Geelong should dispose of Tom Hawkins after round 23 of 2011.

The purple warrior on MMM this arvo said his expectation is that Dangerfield will be at Geelong next season.
Most main media scoop reporters have held the same position
I think people started jumping at shadows

His family has become more important not less
And this decision is about family

Not at all!

I haven't viewed the thread, and just saying it's a very delicate subject for obvious reasons.
Of course its delicate, but that thread was made the day it occurred, should we as crows supporters have just ignored it and went on as if nothing had happened and everything was rosy?

No, and I didn't post my thoughts to pick a fight.

It was just a simple, sincere expression on my part that any such discussion was tasteful and respectful. That's all.

Agree.......and agree with the sentiment.

Its been a tragedy for the family, and there should be far more respect for their loss than discussing it in a public forum.

People are hurting. Show some compassion.
Having a go at crows supporters for this is about as low as it gets...no he have no compassion, what a ****en joke

Easy tiger.

I've explained that my post was made with sincere concern for the family, because there's idiots whichever way you turn. It was in no way 'having a go'.

I lost someone real close not long ago, so you're way off the mark accusing me of that.

You've come in hot on this 3 times now, and each time I've politely explained what I was about.

Best leave it there.

What are you trying to say Mr. German?
You are obviously exasperated, but I am not sure what the problem is.
Is it the speculation over Dangerfield (what the thread is about), or discussion about the coach (what the thread is not about)?
I honestly don't understand your post.
TBH I think the discussion on a footy internet site about an ongoing murder investigation is probably not the best.
Also, bringing that into the PD discussion may also be a little crass.

I'm not having a go at all, what I'm saying is there's a time and a place, perhaps after the court case.
At least give the family some space. That is all.

Perhaps understand context before rambling off.

Careful.

Some of our friends over the border get hotheaded very quickly with that line of thought.
