White people are not a homogenous group of people. It's comparable because the reactions are similar in that they've both been used to stereotype by people like you who are making scenarios up that don't actually exist.



This is exactly the response I expected.

Adam Goodes kicks a goal in an away game and celebrates in front of the away fans and gets booed. He would have been booed if he celebrated at the Carlton fans whether he did an aboriginal war dance or not.

People boo Hodge because he's a dickhead and because he's a good player. The PC brigade seem to ignore this when they consider Goodes who is a fantastic player in favour of manufacturing racism because of the colour of his skin.



Goodes is being singled out because he makes everything about Adam Goodes and he is a dickhead. The more he's a sook, the more people boo him. People like you are over-playing the racist element of this argument.

I bet if you asked the West Coast Eagles fans that booed on the weekend whether they did it because they think he's a shit bloke or whether they did it because he stands up against white oppression or whatever bullshit you want to make up that at least 90% would say they hate him as a person and as a footballer.

It constantly amuses me how because he's indigenous he seems to get special treatment. I wonder how poor Paul Gallen feels having been targeted by all of QLD. Oh wait, he's white, no one gives a fuck about his feelings.

Honestly I hope every aboriginal player does a war dance celebration. I hope they celebrate their culture. I just hope they accept that in a hostile environment like professional sport they are going to cop some flak, just like everyone else.

Back to the footy now. I haven't rated the Tigers a threat all year, but last night definitely changed my mind. I think plenty of Collingwood fans need to calm down. As bad as a loss today looks on paper ( I didn't see the game) the future still looks really bright for them.

Imagine if they started the season well!

Also another good win for the Dees. Really looking like an improved side.

Come on Gold Coast, we want Schache.

But how does it all relate to housing permits of ex ceo's Mackie?

Ports season will be over if they don't beat the bulldogs saturday. Heading over for a fly in fly out from adelaide

must admit really have enjoyed the way the bulldogs have played they have been the most exciting team this year.

Good for them.

similar play to how port did last year

Been some slow steps for the dees but getting there

We're a slim chance as is anyway

Will just save us the pain instead of having Hawks or Freo beat us :lol:

The tank is on at Carlton.

Hird goneskis

It was for the good of the club and hird. He of all people should know no one is bigger than the club.

Lock in Josh Schache to head to the blues pick #1, really fills a hole that Carlton haven't filled since the fevolenko left

see ya later james tird #noschadenfreudeintended

Betts is a bigger loss than people thought (hindsight), shown this season with the crows he can still turn a game when he feels like it and one of the better recruitments of the season

With the fixtures to come I still think we're a big chance for the number #1. It will really come down to how much Carlton will tank as we'll simply keep trying until the end.

It would be nice to pick up Schache given our lack of forwards this year but more importantly with his family connection to the club. I'd rather not have Weitering given his grub of an agent.

So hopefully for next season: Dixon, Schache, McStay, Jono Freeman & Close would be a good group to build around. :d

Hird gone, Needed to happen I felt for the club to move forward. Also it is a results driven game and results as of late well the last 10 weeks have been far from acceptable.

HOWEVER

resigned I don't think is what happened.

This bloke fought above and beyond - loves his club loves his players wants to be there for them. I don't think this close to the wada verdict he would walk away.

Betts is quickly becoming my favourite player outside of the team I support (Essendon)

Hirdy got pushed . He is and will be a essendon legend. But the club needs to clean up from the board down. The strain has clearly affected him and everyone associated with him. I hope the media can leave him and his family alone now

A large amount of egg on Damian Barrett's face right now. :lol:

Schache is ours. :d

If Fyfe gets suspended I think Mitchell is a good smokie for the Brownlow.

What a game this is atm

for afl centric movies: after Blinder flopped in 2013, we have finally made a great Australian movie with AFL in the backdrop called 'Holding the Man'

Its going to make a few people unhappy (like Brokeback Mountain did to the cowboy community) but its the movie Australian Rules Football needed

The scenes.

Lols at the Bulldogs run thru banner over the weekend. If only I could post the image here.

Paddle pop lion ? Twas hilarious

Buddy ruled out indefinitely with mental health issues. Get well soon big fella

Some people are ruthless on facey. Some saying it it isnt mental issues more sniff sniff issues

Carlton what a pathetic excuse of a club.

I mustve missed it on sen . What rhey do
