If this girl goes and does something silly now where will the finger be pointed.
I want to know why Harry O Brien wasn't councled or broightto justice for calling Tom Hawkins "A fat c---" He may well have devastated, gutted and brought Hawkins to tears with that highly offensive and descriminatry remark.
And where were all the media commentators that are currently queuing up behind Goodes when Hawkins was targeted by such an ignorant and cowardly attack just for being heavy?
I suppose fat people just have to tolerate this type of abuse and discrimination regardless of how much it hurts them.
Or maybe they just have thicker skin than some or will have to wait till its fashionable to support the feelings of fat people.

I hope the girl, randomly selectedly to be the face of racism by the all that's good and righteous, is a special and strong enough individual to be able to cope with the stress and responsibility that comes with the scrutiny bestowed upon her by the ever so responsible Adam Goodes.
I hope that this child is able to cope with the attention and scrutiny that comes with the gigantic spot light that Lord Adam Goodes has thrust on her tiny shoulders. Because there must be media watching this girls every move for the next couple of years and if this poor child can't cope, then Adam Goodes your choice of action shall be revisited.
I hope this poor kid can cope.
I saw a photo today of Goodes on the front of the WA Sunday Times doing the Winmar lifting of the gurnsey and pointing out his skin colour thing.
Not sure if it was a genuine photo or just a photo-shopped image.
If it was real, sorry Adam, been done before by a bloke who was the real pioneer in this area.

Yep. I would've liked to see and hear more from Nicky W throughout this round but haven't. I respect indigenous players a lot but I could never stand Goodes.
Reeks of arrogance.
I like how Adam Goodes has said he doesn't think the girl meant it as a racial insult but he still decided to point her out and shame her sorry but if you don't think it was a racial insult why make a big deal of it then maybe I am just to cynical but I think he just wants his turn at being Nicky Winmar and why is it many people especially on the net have decided it was racial and she should be dealt with accordingly if the person who was called an ape doesn't think it was intended as a racial insult then why are there so many ready to go after the girl.
We bring this issue on ourself, all people should be treated the same.
Stop treating people different regarding of colour.

Leysy's no do-gooder or pollitically correct person, but we've found out a lot about certain posters in the last few pages.

And you keep on pretending that she is anything but a child. A child for God sake!. That's who your hero Goodes pointed out in the crowd, that's who was thrown out of the MCG live on national tv, and that's who this 33 year old celebrity was sulking about afterwards. And again what she said is only 'racist' in your fevered politically correct imagination and in Goodes' paranoia. So you can pretend that she was wearing a Klan outfit and burning a cross outside his swank upmarket home, there are a hell of a lot of us not buying it. But hey you keep on fighting the good fight as well.
