Given the age of the girl involved, Goodes himself should have initiated the contact to explain to her why he found the comment inappropriate and how it made him feel.


Spot on Al.

Goodes should have noticed that the girl was very young and maybe said 'i'm not sure if you realise, but I find ape to be an offensive comment'.

This could have easily been an innocent comment, he is a tall, solid man with a beard.

ANOTHER Collingwood fan has been captured on video yelling racist comments during Friday night's match against the Sydney Swans at the MCG.

ha, just read this after making a comment in another thread,

agree with what he said, but really he should have contacted her himself and left this out of the public domain.

Was he supposed to go up to her during the game and jot down a phone number?

Do they still take all your details when you are ejected from the ground?
“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."

Yahweh? or the great Clawski?

Would have been bloody hard pinpointing who he was directing that at though.

I got told off by security. It took two of them and at least 2 mins after I yelled it to come over and tell me not to swear. I was about to call him a d-head to make a point but figured they'd kick me out or something.
