Title: Have you ever racially abused an aboriginal player at the footy?
Post by: Rampsation on February 01, 2020, 12:25:11 PM
Quite simply its time to fess up if youve let em have it.

As for me Im guilty of doing it in the long past. Its pretty shameful behaviour and im not proud if it mind you back then it was considered part of the game.

Yes, I have too!  But most of it was done quietly under my breath!  I never did it face to face as a player (cos I never played against an Aboriginal kid) but I let a few have it over the fence as a spectator (ooh that Robbie Muir!) in the VFL days.
Then something brilliant happened - we recruited Maurice Rioli & I never felt like doing it again.  It changed something in me & I'm glad it did.
Live & learn, but you have to live it in order to learn it ...

I don't think I have. I booed Goodes towards the end because I thought he was a sliding sniper and a sook, but now that I better understand his circumstances I realise the 'sook' argument and the booing that went with it was racially motivated. It's a shame that white people actually silenced a black man with a voice.

Elsewise I have never been one to heckle blokes relentlessly. The mob where I sit used to give it to Kozschitske a lot but after a while a few of us started telling the hecklers to just stfu and leave him alone. Bloke gave his all and didn't have the career he probably could have if his head didn't get repeatedly smashed.

I'll never boo a bloke who has a crack out there. Just the divers and show ponies with big egos like that Geelong mob - Selwood, Ablett and Dangerlookatmepleaseinterviewmefield.

No, I haven't.

Mainly because I wasn't raised by racists...nor am I a piece of shi.

No I haven't.

I have been racially abused by indigenous people whilst playing myself though.

I was the only white fella in our team & 1 particular trip to Barunga I was the only whitey on the ground & quite possibly in the town !

Different players but same situation for me

And no , it doesn't really make us racists, but in rubbish politically correct 2020 Australia, we are absolutely racist

yes, under my breath and when i was a lot younger. I believe i too was racially abused to by being called an aboriginal and a wog in my high school days. It didnt offend in any way so i believe IMO some of these guys should really just grow of pair and give it back as we all did.

i never booed goodes mainly because i dont believe i went to many of his games since he started becoming a wanker. If he was playing now, i would boo him for sure because i think he is an abolsute tool.

I did consistently abuse in some way the likes of harvey, essendon football team and especially milne.

No - impossible to be racist against whites. :shh

Is anyone gonna give it to Betts in R1?

For being black - no. :shh

For being past it - yes :shh :shh

For Carlton "rebuilding" with him - yes :shh :shh :shh

For 2017 - yes :shh :shh :shh :shh

By ironically chanting "EEEEDDDIEEEE" every time he misses - yes :shh :shh :shh :shh :shh

Dio could you imagine if the essendon football club players were majority aboriginal. There is no way that would have been tolerated. I would dare say you would have got evicted for some of the things that were yelled at them. I have no doubt you would have been labelled it a racist, and nothing to do with why they are actually getting booed for.

Interesting an ex Richmond player from the 90s and early 00's told me that the racial abuse that went on at that time was rampant an fairly unbridled from fans and other players especially.

So no wonder players like Goodes are out there fighting the good fight still, despite most (white) people claiming that racism finished in 1967 and all the snow flakes need to get over it.

fighting the good fight? :lol :lol What fight is that? The same one that white men cop because they are no good or oppo fans just dont like the way they conduct themselves.

with goodes he may think it was racist because he is dilusional, but the majority of people just didnt like the way he operates and went about things.

Goodes fighting the good fight LMAO

Funniest part about that is he grew up in Horsham living the same way as all the “white fellas”

He’d never been to a community until he became a face for “the good fight”

Would have a clue what people like Tambling went through to make the AFL

Ah yes, my favourite argument in this whole, bigoted saga.

Adam Goodes the Aboriginal is not ALLOWED to identify as an Aboriginal man because he grew up in an area with "white fellas" and, as such, speak of truths related to indigenous treatment at the hands of "white fellas".

The lens is so protracted you could use it on your Year 8 maths project.

Ahh yes. On a website where people post with total anonymity people are also desperate to virtue signal.

So much social currency to be gained.

As for you I hope I'm so fortunate never to cross paths!

Little bit of background for you

I rented a house in Spring St Belmont, whilst going to Deakin in Waurn Ponds. My housemate at the aforementioned place was Justin. This aforementioned Justin, was a neighbour and good friend of "Goodesy". I had quite possibly 20 conversations with "goodesy" over a 2 year period. "Goodesy" was a TOP bloke. This was early career. At a time when "Goodesy" was a popular player competition wide.

Late career Adam Goodes became a total flog of the highest order. He changed completely as a person.

But Damo, he's an Aboriginal man who speaks on issues related to Aboriginal Australians.

What does his living situation have to do with that?

He is perfectly entitled to make comment, construct and lead social agenda. Especially if people look for his direction and comment.

Did you have 20 or so conversations with him in his late career?? I mean, Plugger was one of the dirtiest dogs going around in his twighlight and received nothing like the reception Goodes did every time he got a touch for the last 2-3 years of his career. Right around the same time he started making strong public comment related to Indigenous affairs.

Even Gary Abblett Jnr has turned a bit thuggish, and if I recall Richmond people began booing him to an extent related to his onfield crap (and off field support of Falou). Sports media personal quickly squashed it and there was uniform disdain for the booing. I don't recall anything like the same consistent support for Goodes.

Goodes has said himself that he didn't get too involved in his culture or history until later in life.

Whites did horrendous things to indigenous Aussies. Not putting my hand up for it but there's a lot of work to be done mending those relationships and putting right those wrongs.

I think you know the comments made towards another poster before the post was edited. Wonder why it got edited?

As for legal side of things, no the site did not receive a threat as you put it BUT there were statements made that were made without foundation and fell into the grey area. And under the legal advice we have received many times anything grey gets removed. Has done since the site started and that won't be changing
