Shocker

[Kirby]

Smoky, you are seriously being far too sensitive about this.

There is no proof that the shocker is what is meant by the hand thing even if he meant anything at all.

It amuses me that this symbol that most people didn't know what it means now everyone does. Weird world we live in.

It's not even that lewd anyway is it? I mean really?

So my son should grow up with that photo on his wall? What do I tell him it means?

 

[Thommo 42]

why are people blaming Blair?

It was clearly Dayne Beams, and is more in line with his 'history'

I still don't care though, and it aint newsworthy

 

[Pie eyed]

**** the "shocker"...!!!!

What about the even lewder act of anal fisting????

See it being displayed in nearly every game.
It a disgrace.

The game should be stopped.

God damnit!!!
God Damnit!!!!!!

Respect my rights.

Ban all gestures.....

I could almost guarantee your son won't ask you to decode a celebratory hand gesture within a sexual contest.

If he does, I imagine you'd have a lot more trouble with the much more common "fist" and "jazz hands" gestures.

edit: Seems you beat me to the fist, Pie Eyed. Have some hand gestures!

 

[Smoky]

**** me, can the season just start.

I, in all my time in watching football (longer then most on here), have never seen so much BULLSHIT in the form of rumours, innuendo and basically "over reporting" of largely insignificant incidents that have occured.

For ****s sake, if BogFooty was around in the sixties or seventies, some of the shit that players did back then between games would blow your mind.

Yet, a player literally can't take a piss without 43 different photographers flashing their bulbs (), and moronic so called journos like Mitchell, Caro and Hutchy starting stories about meaningless little incidents.

LEAVE THE ****ING PLAYERS ALONE, they train their arses off for 11 months of the year, and all they want in return is to be treated to the same level of respect and privacy that the average Australian citizen is treated with.

Now if this Stkilda nude photo bitch comes out in the next few days and releases more shit about AFL players, from any clubs, I will seriously think about abandoning forums like this, and all news reports apart from our official site, because it is become too ****ing much.

OVER REACTIONS are never good things, especially when the over reaction is plain wrong.

/rant

Sorry where's the hand signals in the 1979 Pre Season Winners photo? I can't see them anywhere?

Did they have some KKK shit happening in their photo or something cause I can't see it... the photo's been on my wall since I was 4 years old!

It was not.

Watch the telecast replay.

It was not Beams - 100%

Do you honestly reckon he will notice? Even if he does do you think he will wonder what it means? If he does think it means something do you actually think he would ask you?

Btw, I have a 10 and 13 year old in case you're wondering. You should hear the shit the 13 year old's friends come out with and what they know. It would blow your mind.

Can we rename this thread "Smoky goes nuts".

Seriously, I've never seen anyone over react so much to a disputed and unsubstantiated rumour.

Do you know for sure what the player in question was doing with his hand?

**** NO.

So until you do, come off your high horse and tell your son that the picture may have been taken at an inopportune moment and that the hand gesture that you can see may mean one of 24,000 things, depending on so many factors it's not funny.

Such as;

* Was that the actual "finished" gesture? Or was the photo just taken at the wrong time, while the gesture was still "in production".
* If it was the actual "finished" gesture, could it mean one of the other 32 meanings that hand gesture means in different languages and cultures throughout the world?

I could go on all night, but this is getting ridiculous now, IT'S A NOTHING STORY, and anyone who takes it further is in-sighting negative thoughts and press against this great club and it's players.

This thread should be closed, if the rumour thread about the StKilda schoolgirl was closed, why isn't this, because this too is a rumour thread with no evidence that Blair has actually done anything wrong.

Next you'll be telling me you are offending by the "beak" hand gesture.

So... first off, you don't know my son... and have no idea how his mind works. FFS - I don't. But believe you me he has an affliction for detail with the condition he is blessed with.

Did you know when Daicos kicked goal of the Century he had a small rip in the seem of his jumper underneath his right arm?

My Hero.

"Hey Dad, did you know my hero sticks two fingers up..."

Who's flag is it (even though no one cared!)? Ours, the vaginas and bums or the bands?

So the photo that started the thread... isn't evidence he did it?

 

[Smoky]

Ok...

Lets say it was paying homage to a band... who? why? Did they help us win a flag?

Arizona?.... I mean really?

A Sexual act? After the heat Collingwood took in the media after the FALSE allegations after our flag what 4 months ago - surely no one would be dumb enough to advocate a sexual act in the pre season grand final flag photo?

Ohh, but is it just fun and games!

Something else?

Harry has been twittering all day about it - you reckon he might want to spread the word that it wasn't something untoward???

 

[HFF]

Its a digital sex act

Two in the "pink", one in the "stink"

or the hand signal of steel panther fans.

Regardless who seriously gives a ****?

Didn't know what it meant until reading this opti.

This has LOL on so many levels.

Who gives a flying **** why the player did it anyway?!

Oh and I agree with matty, Neil Mitchell you are a w***er. Ditto that caller Jack who carried on like he knew wtf was going on.

 

[Number 10]

Seriously...I'm 21 and I didn't even notice it and when someone told me to look at it (this thread) I thought "wtf...whats wrong with that? I usually do it when I'm pretending to be a sicknut gangster, putting 3 to 4 fingers up to make an obscure hand gesture".

Relax. Your son will probably be doing it when he's 16 onwards anyway. He'll find out on his own.

 

[Suspense]

whoever it was, i look forward to them upping the ante in the 2011 premiership photo.

alternatively, just throw up the wu, lads

Maybe they can simulate an orgy, with Trav copping it doggy style, Daisy giving Maxy a pearl necklase and Didak blowing Dane Swan!

Smoky you are the only person I have seen on this site that has any issue with the hand gesture at all, having been through both our boards version of the thread and the main board.

If you feel so strongly about what has happened call or email the club and demand an explanation and stop bombarding us.

Finally where were you 2 days ago when it was first pointed out that the hand gesture was made? You frequent the board as much as anyone else but didn't express your feelings until it was aired by Mitchell, which i feel is strange considering how strong your feelings are regarding the topic.

Calling or emailling the Club!

That's hilarious!

Have you ever tried?

if your son ever asks why a guy he can't see (who is apparently his hero) has one finger down in a photo then i would suggest you just tell him you don't know??? or that it was incidental?

if you want to say 'well it could be anything son but i'm going to assume it is most likely related to a sexual act', that's your prerogative


as a footnote, i would like to suggest that anyone with their mouth open in that photo could have been swearing...they probably weren't, but why was their mouth open if not yelling profanity???

Sorry... but a few days ago I didn't have time to sit here and give my opinion... I had more important things to do than debate this topic. I now gave my opinion, and not many agree with me... on Bigfooty.

My Family, the boys I watched my heroes from the Daicos pocket at Vic Park... we seem to agree... but it's really not my job to be here to give my opinion to you on your beck and call. I don't claim authority on the CFC but I do claim a vested interest in out History... the honour wall. The one one that honour vagina's and bums at the same time!

 

[Ed D]

Oh cool...

I'll see what they do in the photo in the 2033 Pre Season Grand Final Photo

Everyone says pre season cups don't matter... but we did wait 32 years to win one.

You realise you're being no different to SoHo about the rape allegations?!?

And yes it was a one off photo. Like others said, the other photos which were taken at the same time the hand gesture (if you can call it that) was different.

Call me crazy, but I reckon those two are much worthier objects of veneration than a 2011 NAB Cup photo.

Cool story bro.

I won't lie to my son - that's my rule. He's dealt with enough bullshit in his life already.

Please don't try and tell me I have to change my values of bringing up my son because of one idiot deciding his hand gesture deserves honouring during a once in 32 year celebration of a pre-season Flag!

Funny that, you seemed to have time to give your opinion on both the Dawesy's ball and Tarrant back at Collingwood thread in that time. Like I said tell someone who cares, considering the club obviously don't, I really have no sympathy for you
