Footballers Grog Coke Aggression and Roids

But mate, they can't behave any other way. Whether it is genetic or due to the roids, these guys are full of testosterone come the night after the big match.

Chlamydians are lining up for a root, club owners are offering free grog and coke, and they go for it.

The TV crews and print media lurk about.

Its not the players fault.

gg

they had the discipline to train

they had the discipline to give up things there friends were doing to claim a spot at there level

and yes they SHOULD exercise that same discipline to keep that spot REGARDLESS of whats thrown there way .....

they can still go out and enjoy themselves but maybe excercise that same discipline to say NO when it comes to the crunch ..........

there careers are not forever , its a young mans sport ........ either be disciplined and toe the line to keep at number 1 or pissorf and get another job and give your spot to someone who is willing to use discipline in there actions

nun they are young men.

Their behaviour is understandable.

Its natural for them to do these things on roids, coke and grog.

Go easy on them.

I'm sure you wouldn't do it if you had the opportunity.:nono::nono::nono::nono::nono:
 
So its ok for the ambassoders to our kids .. our kids role models........ our kids hero,s to stick needles in themselves or go round punching ppl and show our kids its ok to do so ?

quite easy in my view .......... wanna be a star to my kids . well be an angel ....

wanna be a party pig .............. go get a different career where my kids aint watching and thinking its ok because his hero does it

stuffem i reckon

I don't reckon they should be role models.

This is all crap pushed by the TV companies and media.

I want to see Footie players red in tooth and claw, not some namby pamby parson of a Tuesday.

I want to see good football.

These guys are fuelled by aggression.

How can you expect them to turn it on and off.

gg

Yep i'm with you gg, if you wanna want cleanskin w@nkers play, go watch the Christian Football League.... oh wait that doesn't exist, wonder why? Maybe they should always wear condoms during sex, go to confession weekly sing khum-bai-yah in the streets.
Let boys be boys.

Thanks sprinhill.

These poor blokes and I know some personally are under tremendous pressure.

A torn cartilage and they are history.

They need to meet every tart like that one that was on tv with the long nose, skin cancers, and ageing chin and boobs, and godknows what else , and any others.

They should get pisssed and be happy, to deal with the pressure after a big week training and playing.

And they don't need wannabee journalists and papparazi perving on them.

And the AFL and NRL judiciaries are run by guys who did the same when they were young.

Its disgusting what these blokes have to put up with.

And this crap about role models gives me the ****s.

These poor blokes? Get real. The reason why they are in the spot light is because they're high profile sportsmen & of interest to the the public. They get paid well for what they love doing and with that comes with a price of being in the public eye. No different to movie stars or pollies. So to some degree they are role models to youngsters inadvertently wether they like or not & are expected by their club to behave when out in public. If they stuff up ( and we all do at some point) they have to suffer the consequences. Thats price of fame.
 
No way GG

BTW I enjoy your questions in this forum, even if you do try and push peoples buttons, well done : )

I dont agree. They are high paid sportsmen and thats thanks to the public, therefore if they want to play there, then act accordingly, otherwise go play for the local footy club and see what pay you get..

Its a job - not like it used to be where they worked as a job as well as playing footy..

I blame the associations that they play for as they should be providing education to these kids as thats what they are 'kids'

From playing at the local footy club, then all of a sudden are with all this cash and dont know what to do with it..

I also think its not all of them, only a select few that wreck it for them all..
 
Gotta agree with Tink.

Those meatheads are in the public eye and kids look up to them.

Sorry can't agrre with this! When a fair portion of the public carries on fighting, drinking, brawling & snorting ****.... who are they (we?) to impose a different set of morals on these guys because they are good at sport? Until everyone in society is a cleanskin they have no right to dictate terms on behaviour. Let he who is without sin blah blah blah......
Money has nothing to do with this issue, i hate when it is brought into it.
Sportsmen are nothing more than gifted athletes, we should accept their faults, like all others.
 
sack em all

bloody primadonnas ....

I'm with this. Give them a dose of reality.

Most of them are also nothing more than spoilt adolescents.

So they should be able to snort coke before a game, then after they lose get drunk, have a fight and then gang-rape some poor girl?

Name me 1 AFL/NRL/NRU player off the top of your head that has done these things consecutively. Your use of the word and (instead of or) implies someone has been guilty of all this in one consecutive episode.
Of course no one in the general public has ever snorted coke before clubbing, got drunk, picked a fight & then (God forbid) raped somebody, have they?
Tall poppy syndrome at its finest.
 
I was obviously exaggerating to make a point.

Seems to always be the excuse of someone defending celebrity, we can't just call a spade a spade. I couldn't care less about how successful some is financially or socially.

So why are you part of the chorus singling them out & taking pot shots at them if you 'couldn't care less'?
 
Please read more carefully. I said I didn't care about success, something which has nothing to do with commenting on their behaviour. Many act like pigs, and I'd say so regardless of their wealth and social status. I'm not singling them out, but most males who fall into this group (generally a situation where someone earns quite a bit early in life by being an entertainer) are footy players.
 
Dear springhill


you forget the crux of a lot of the points GG was making

his main point was that BECAUSE they was succesful atletes on roids and under pressure that they should be allowed to do what they please .....

to this i say bollocks if they cant handle the pressure and behave then they should be punished like ANYBODY else would be for commiting offenses

i also reckon because they are role models they should be told to get there act together or pissorf

anyways ive discussed this already here ..................

as you were

Looks like singling out to me.

Is there a pattern here?
Most men who act like pigs are footy players? What planet are you living on? Spent anytime in the countryside, on mine sites, construction sites, the local pub at the end of the street etc etc etc mate?

Herrrrro Nun :D
Role models my @ss! These fellas are gladiators doing battle... let them slug it out in the game, and in life.
They're no better or worse than anyone else.

Yes, that's exactly what I said :rolleyes:. There's no point responding to you any further.

Ello springhill :D

EXACTLY so if they no better . why should they be allowed to run around like a buncha dicks bashing ppl and running amok with no penalty ? .........

:p: your argument is flawed and i would like an admission off you that you are wrong and these primadonna athletes need to grow the fark up :D


hahahaha . on a side note . Blue King Brown are playing at the "one movement festival " at the esplanade in october and i will be there snorting and drinking all in the name of good sport :D see ya there

Because everyone else gets away with it, why not footy players?
Of course my argument is flawed, i get my kicks playing devil's advocate :D
Seems if you're aligned with GG in something you're generally pushing **** uphill LOL.
No offense GG ;)

So if your daughter got raped or bashed you would be saying that the general public would get away with it? Get real. The only difference would the media attention & why is that? Because they're highly paid high profile sportsmen. Just like a business these players have contracts & if they stuff up a lot of the time they get penalized not by the courts but by the club or by both. I think gg just likes to stir the pot in starting this thread.
