The booing of the screen

[thebaldfacts]

I was at the game yesterday and after Garlett kicked a goal, they showed on the screen a replay and, in front of the Collingwood cheer squad, he did his dance and then I think it showed him throwing an imaginary spear at the cheer squad.

Can someone who was there verify what actually happened, as I only glanced at the screen.

What was interesting then was the response. I did not hear any booing when he kicked the goal but after the replay on the screen, there was boos ringing out.

AFL is a passionate game and all supporters are full of passion, so how do you respond in such circumstances where you are deliberately provoked?

Love to hear from anyone as to what happened.

I thought it was great. I really enjoyed it. I love it when ex-Blooz players get a goal against the 'Pies. Nothing better.

Absolutely nothing in it, there was no spear throwing. It was more a celebration dance. Don't understand why they booed, possibly they thought he was rubbing our nose in it. Well they did and deservedly so.

I actually liked it - other than the fact that it was celebrating a goal kicked against us.

It was obviously a movement with indigenous origins, but it was a celebratory one, with no aggression. Couldn't help but wonder how events of the past week could have been different, if that had been the dance used during indigenous round.

Yep, when since 1964 has a Melbourne player ever been justified celebrating a goal like that?

Looked more like a Sharpie dance from the 70's .

Looked like a kid running around playing aeroplanes to me.

Doesn't he have the worst tattoo layout, think Mr Squiggle must be his artist.

must be one of those ethnic, imported screens, I was booing it all day.

I was booing the umpires.... Then someone called me a racist so i stopped.

I also stopped clapping, swearing, eating a pie and any movement whatsoever that could be viewed as racist - particularly the pie eating.

One of the funnier threads I have bothered to read !

[The_Staunton]

I was at home in Tasmania

And I might have screamed at him for being an ex Carlton so and so

I obviously have reflected and consulted with Peter Fitzsimmons

I am obviously a racist

I have self reported to the AFL

Jack Watts is still terrible though

[Johnno75]

Same here, I booed Jack Watts so I must be racist.

But I got a laugh out of a few when I posed the question on who was the worst No. 1 draft pick between John Fraser, Watts and Gibbs.
