I watched the Channel 9? Sunday Footy Show with interest where they asked Sam Mitchell about the booing he received during the Collingwood game.
I presume this was in relation to his injecting sledge and not some racist Indigenous supporters.
He basically said he didn't care, quite liked it, reckoned part of the game where people let off steam after a week of work.
I'm disappointed Goodsey hasn't had a press conference expressing his disappointment - perhaps he will wait for the next SWANs vs Hawks game
“I find it nearly impossible to make those judgments, but he is certainly up there with the really important ones, he is certainly up there with the Francis Bourkes and the Royce Harts and the Kevin Bartlett and the Kevin Sheedys, there is no doubt about that,” Balme said.

why would colonwoood supporters boo someone for sledging Essendon?

everyone else applauded him.....

LEWIS Jetta says his last-quarter goal celebration against West Coast, in which he reprised the indigenous war dance carried out by Adam Goodes earlier in the year, was done in support of his great mentor.

Goodes was booed every time he gathered possession in the Swans' loss to the Eagles at Domain Stadium, just as he had been in most matches since he performed the dance against Carlton in May.

Why must it all be turned into a racial issue? Goodes was booed long before his war dance wasn't he? Poor soul is just sick of it ::)

He's just trying to reclaim Australia.

It's a load of crap.

Talk about inflaming the issue.  I would have booed him, no problem, because he's an effing wanker.
BUT I was over it and thought, maybe we should just move on because it's not doing the game any good and maybe there are ulterior motives behind it "for some".  Reality, there are racists out there, but not all of them that are booing him are.
BUT no-one can tell me that I am a racist because I would have booed him.  Absolutely nothing to do with him being black, and I suspect these comments will just inflame the issue even further.
Nice work, Andrew, just made it impossible to find a solution.

I know whose heads are buried in sand Andrew and it isn't those booing him.  Wake up and smell the roses - Goodes played the racism card from the start and has done nothing except inflame it since.  Classic racist behaviour if you ask me.

last night i had the dubious honour of being in the company of a redneck  bogan, complete with mullet, for a short time.

and i quote

"my daughter knows if she ever brings a n****r onto our property, he wont be leaving"

and the stuffwits want to put all those who dislike goodes, yet dont give other indigenous players the same treatment, in the same category as this bloke?
“For My thoughts are not your thoughts,
Nor are your ways my ways,” says the Lord.
 
“For as the heavens are higher than the earth,
So are my ways higher than your ways,
And my thoughts than your thoughts."

It's all getting rather hysterical now....

...also if Sydney make the GF, which they still very much could, pretty sure Goodes won't be taking part in any pre-match motorcades....
