Things Giants fan(s) deem acceptable

Hi Bay,

It may have escaped attention, but it seems Toby 'learnz nuffink' Greene is once again in a spot of bother for his face clawing ways.
This has sent the few Giants fans on here into a complete lather with trying to defend the indefensible. Sadly, the two with a sense of humour have abstained from their sad denials of reality.
Let's brainstorm to find the line in the sand even our new to the game falafel guzzling northern neighbours will not cross.

Based on their lame BF denials in recent times, what else will Giants fans defend?

a. Skipping rounds at the pub

747634

b. Eye gouging

747635

c. Incorrectly eating an Australian icon

747637

d. Snacks that are just, like, whoa!

747638

e. Dodgy fundraising efforts

You could write a book on the dodgy things that go down in the Western suburbs

..... of Sydney, of course.

f. heres a list of things the Felafels may use at the tribunal:

1. We didn’t do it! (Denials usually don’t work, but it’s worth a try).

2. We know you think we did it but we aren’t admitting anything.

3. Actually, maybe we did do something but not what we are accused of doing.

4. Ok, we did it but it wasn’t that bad ("waterboarding isn’t really torture, you know").

5. Well, maybe it was pretty bad but it was justified or necessary.

6. What we did was really quite restrained, when you consider how powerful we really are. I mean, we could have done something even worse.

7. Besides, what we did was technically legal under some interpretations of international law (or at least as our lawyers interpret the law as it applies to us.)

8. Don’t forget: the other side is much worse. In fact, they’re evil. Really.

9. Plus, they started it.

10. And remember: We are the good guys. We are not morally equivalent to the bad guys no matter what we did. Only morally obtuse, misguided critics could fail to see this fundamental distinction between Them and Us.

11. The results may have been imperfect, but our intentions were noble.

12. We have to do things like this to maintain our credibility. You don’t want to encourage those bad guys, do you?

13. Especially because the only language the other side understands is force.

14. In fact, it was imperative to teach them a lesson. For the Nth time.

15. If we hadn’t done this to them they would undoubtedly have done something even worse to us. Well, maybe not. But who could take that chance?

16. In fact, no responsible team could have acted otherwise in the face of such provocation.

17. Plus, we had no choice. What we did may have been awful, but all other stretegic options had failed and/or nothing else would have worked.

18. It’s a tough world out there and Serious People understand that sometimes you have to do these things. Only ignorant idealists, terrorist sympathizers, craven appeasers and/or treasonous liberals would question our actions.

19. In fact, whatever we did will be worth it eventually, and someday the rest of the world will thank us.

20. We are the victims of a double-standard. Other teams do the same things (or worse) and nobody complains about them. What we did was therefore permissible.

21. And if you keep criticizing us, we’ll get really upset and then we might do something really crazy. You don’t want that, do you?

Isn't cleaner the number one occupation in Footscray?
I'd guess barista or bar manager judging by its newfound hipster status

h. Don't wash their hands unless they went number two

i. Never use a towel at the gym, and never wipe the equipment

j. Order ridiculously expensive food at restaurants in a group setting, and multiple expensive drinks, then suggest to split the bill evenly "because it's easier"
