These boards were full of allegations yes, and the bay and all over the place it's still hinted at regularly. But what else is there to say about it?
Franklin wasn't getting booed the same amount Goodes is now.
Totally disagree, the hysteria around Franklin's apparent drug use has stopped!
And the Sydney posters in particular now love this free kick staging drug user (not my words)....why? Good old self interest!
Agreed, because Franklin just played through it and just kept kicking bags, he thrived on the haters booing and smearing him. He accepted his roll in the banter continuing and didn't sook. Dare I say it, the Australia way. As I highlighted, booing Goodes now has become a sport. Like 90k people chanting Hadlee is a wanker or the same for Wayne Carey. It's now a sport and telling people to stop and showing that it's getting to him it will only increase. Goodes was winning because his footy was A grade and he was successful. Now it appears he is on the slide (not with his knees this time), the folks Goodes has made look foolish and upset over the years are head hunting him for payback. Again, it's just the Australian way, nothing to do with racism.
Like James Hird, Goodes needs someone else advising him on public relations, because currently he's just digging the hole deeper and deeper.
And the people defending him the most in the media have view few credits in the bank when it comes to being moral compasses, especially Robbo or Bec Wilson. Either of these two calling people Rednecks or Bogans is so amusing.
