As long as we're all comfortable with Murdoch press being the ones serving justice.

Nope!
To be honest I don’t follow any of that media so have no idea how much s**t he’s been getting I’ve only seen a few comments here.
Getting called out for it is fine in my opinion, as Raman said, fame used to be the shield.
It has to be proportionate though.

They can't complain too much. Fame still gets most footballers more people throwing themselves at them (and higher quality) then they'd otherwise get. They just have to not be complete dicks (no pun intended) and they are still coming out way ahead (not even going into their salary for their age).

Whow-wee, boy oh boy! The Tingles' culcha is booming ... Now able to re-sign & hold on to their stars! Look out here we come.

He is the least looking AFL footballer I have ever seen.

He looked decent last year though.
Good signing for them, hope it doesn’t work out .

Yeah, when Ned McHead gets an extension then it's time to laugh. I don't think HS is going to be a star, but he should have a good journeyman 200 game career any set of fans would be happy with. He's just not going to lead them back up the ladder, despite any tire pumping.

People seem to be focusing the Patton thing for firing off willy pictures and overlooking the misogynistic abuse directed toward many of the unwilling participants.

Yeah, agreed. The dick pics are one thing but the comments he made when he was knocked back were probably worse.

The sky is the limit for them now - a top 14 berth beckons.

I still haven't seen it (the texts, the willy I don't care for). Are they allowed to be posted on largefootball?

Whatever happened to the good old days when you could pop on a plastic Mac, head down to the local train station and jump from behind a bush to expose yourself?
These new fangled phone and social media contraptions are just ruining personalisation and intimacy.

They still catch a few bush lurking sex pests in Linear Park every year if you need an outlet.

What's with this modern plastic Mac stuff, back in my day blokes of that persuasion wore gaberdine overcoats, oversized fedoras, and `hung' around school tuck shops.

Probably, I have only seen a few though, no idea where most of them are getting around.

Pretty sure sex pests are still rocking fedoras

 

[Interstater]

I like GWS’s new jumpers. The away kit is exactly what it should have been even if it does look like a training kit.

Very similar to our 1997 home strip.

A transgender footballer agreed with her not being able to play AFLW at this stage because of numerous biological reasons and still got shot down by some good samaritans here.

Just let Hannah okay. Surely there'd be plenty in the " women can do everything a man can do" within that mob. Just play and see what happens.

 

[backtozero]

What happens if Hannah absolutely poleaxes some young girl with a slight frame? Its one thing to be low on testosterone but there's no getting around the superior bone density and overall strength and size.

weirdly she might not just go around poleaxing people but may in fact play the game of football

 

[philthy05]

When the “she could really injure someone cause she’s so much bigger” crowd seems suddenly concerned after decades of cheering on 70kg rookies playing against guys built like absolute tanks you have to question their real motive.

I just don’t buy that these people are really concerned about the safety of footballers.

 

[GoTheMightyCrows]

As football is a contact sport the chances of Hannah poleaxing an opponent to gain advantage would be a pretty obvious thing to do considering Hannah's size advantage of most others playing.

As the female football game is far more congested the chances of using size to advantage becomes more likely.

Well illustrated.

Whichever way they go on this issue, the AFL's insurance premiums will take off.
