The condemnation of comments of Eddie towards Caroline Wilson stunk of political correctness and fear of loss of sponsorship of the CFC. So the conclusion is we can no longer say what we think but have to preface our thoughts by pandering to every minority group in society. We are no longer living in a free society imo but in a society dictated by the few against the majority. The natural conclusion of all this is that at some point in time, the majority will rebel and the Populists like Pauline Hanson will fill the vacuum will become the government and that will spell doom for all of us.

That is an example of good umpiring??? _________________ Don't confuse your current path with your final destination. Just because it's dark and stormy now doesn't meant that you aren't headed for glorious sunshine! |

Typical and expected outcome from the AFL. Corrupt and as manipulative as ever.
Seeing they fully finance GWS the fine is inconsequential. Also, chances are that they will combine later picks to make up the 1000 points. _________________ Now Retired - Every Day Is A Saturday |

Well Member you do whinge more about the AFL than me whinging about Blair.
However, under the current AFL commission a vote by more than two thirds of the clubs can overturn any AFL commission decision.
What is the likelihood of that happening????
About zero!
So if the AFL is corrupt then so are the clubs. |
