This course of action couldn't possibly result in more booing. Definitely not.

Both Robbo and Whately took a "we are concerned about the booing because its similar to the Adam Goodes booing and could drive Ablett from the game and he's done too much for the game for that to happen" angle on 360 tonight.

I pop into the thread to post something funny and the first three things I see are Eddie Betts kicking a goal of the year contender against the Suns who are down 60, the best player in the teams history liking posts that say homosexuals are going to hell, and our old coach have a tourettes fit. Things are going very well on the gold coast.

They legit were until quarter time against the Crows. They've been really competitive apart from that.

Do we know what match that was with Rocket? Apparently St Kilda in 2009 - they played them 3 times including the prelim. So I’m guessing it might have been the prelim since that was the closest with the most on the line?

I think you’re trying to apply logic (which match would make him most upset) to a clearly illogical person

He was pretty well known for losing the plot in the coaches box regularly during his time at Sydney iirc

There was a lot of talk about Leo Cameron having to coach from the sidelines for most of last year as the GWS assistants had effectively kicked him out of the coaches box due to his carrying on, looks like it was all a part of his apprenticeship

Jesus Christ I hate everyone beating up this poor Gary getting booed bullshit. How come when buddy got booed in literally every game Hawthorn played it wasn’t an issue? I don’t remember him being a public homophobe.

Equating this to Goodes as if happy clappers are a persecuted minority is disgraceful and all the AFL, Gerard and Robinson have done is make sure he gets booed by more than Hawthorn supporters for the rest of the season.

For all the scoffing at the idea of pro-victorian bias by the AFL, remember that they threw the book at Adelaide for organising Kurt Tippett a pie company sponsorship, while Carlton and Essendon are allowed to give away sacks with dollar signs on them to lure players home to Melbourne

For gently caress sake Hawthorn supporters have booed GAJ ever since he got good in 2008 or something and pies supporters boo him every game. But suddenly we are up in arms about it THIS time but it is totally definitely not because we are upset that an extremely Christian player got heckled after expressing a bigoted view publicly for all to see. No we are only upset because he’s a great of the game! Pull your loving heads out of your arses you intolerable loving poo poo birds. Get afl 360 off the air, it had been poo poo since 2013 when those idiots decided Essendon was innocent.

One positive effect of Melbourne being so depressingly bad is that I disengage completely from all the associated AFL media, shows, podcasts, etc and just watch the games (except for the ones Melbourne are in)

I've got a pocket full of cheese🧀, and a garden full of trees🌴.

Remember, the "we booed him before [X], and are just booing him for reasons not connected to [X]" was the very argument used by the racists booing Goodes. I agree, both situations are entirely different, but don't fall into the trap of using their arguments.

And to be extremely and unwarrantedly generous to the AFL, maybe they are trying to get ahead of the booing situation this time and nip it in the bud, as opposed to how they did gently caress all with Goodes and let it develop into the horrendous shitshow it became.

Also, Geelong play West Coast this week with their notoriously boo-happy fans, but the game is in Geelong which is just as known for it's one-eyed feral fans. So it will be interesting to see what happens, especially given the AFL putting a target on his homophobic god botherer back.

Nobody is going to be brave enough to boo him in Geelong. Essendon fans will probably go nuts the week after.

I didn’t say that people weren’t booing him because of x, I said that he was booed before x and nobody complained about it then. It was probably stronger on the weekend than in recent history because of the spotlight he shone on himself but the fact that the AFL, Whately and Robinson chose this time to get upset about it outs them as bigots or unbelievably tone deaf.

Anyway, if you refuse to use an argument because someone you disagree with said something similar in the past about a different situation, won’t you find yourself snookered pretty often?
