Rumour Slobbo sacked, Lyon in the box seat

[Strapping Young Lad]

Serious white knight energy with this one.

Ok boomer.

 

[Pistol Night]

Garry slamming Billys ex aside i think he'll make a vanilla show even more boring

 

[iameviljez]

what a fantastic world it would be if we all went around sleeping with our friends ex boyfriends or girlfriends

I can only talk about myself, there's not a chance in hell I would ever do that and how do u even get yourself in that position in the first place

Oh, look, as I said, I think it's pretty ordinary behaviour, and if I were a friend of Garry's I'd be asking myself whether I was ok with someone prepared to put his best friend's happiness below his own like that.

Jack reiwoldt to take over from Gary
On the couch

 

[Big Bryza]

yes he does. he says what he thinks. When he's asked a question, he says what he thinks.

He says what others t are too afraid to say also.

If he thinks a team are shit he says it, if he thinks someone should retire he says it, if he thinks are player is overrated or over payed he says it.
It's what he thinks. Other people don't say it because they don't want to ruffle feathers and are too concerned about being liked by everyone in the industry.

campaigner says what he thinks then backs it up.

Stupid people think he invents his point view and opinion for click bait. He doesn't have to invent anything he just isn't afraid to say what he thinks where others won't because it may go against the status quo or harm their image/brand. Easier to play it safe and keep everyone happy.

No worries, Kane.

Problem is most of the time his thoughts are stupid. He has admitted he just tries to think of attention grabbing headlines and play devils advocate, its not that he actually believes it. He follows the model of certain US sports hosts. Clearly has bias towards certain clubs and doesn't back his statements up with facts.

Gary getting a taste of his own medicine?

Earth to mighty lions, men don’t own women.

You should try to sleep with your friends' partners since noone owns anyone.

Honestly, call me old fashioned but for many ppl there is still such a thing as living by a code of honour or ethics - especially when it comes to expectations in friendships you have forged.

I’ll say it again.

Men don’t own women. If a woman decides to **** a man then she’s made her own decision. Good luck to her.

I don't think that's the revolutionary statement that you think it is. It's not about the woman.

If 2 guys have a genuine friendship then for many there is usually an honor code between them.

If you don't understand that then that's fine (I feel bad for you that you don't have genuine brotherhood with anyone in this life).

But the statement that anyone that lives by such a code thinks that they 'own women' is a straw man.

The bro code you identify is at its core based on the ownership of women by men.

'bro code' - sounds juvenile and probably has a lot of other dubious morals tied in with it that we would probably be in agreement with are immature.
Which is why comment didn't include anything dumb like "bros before hoes" or something to that effect.

It's just your assumption that because another man would not cross certain lines due to the respect for a friend they care and love means they think that women can be owned.

I'm simply talking about the honor and respect that can exist between friends or 'brothers' where love is such a strong emotion you would forgo the opportunity to sleep with someone that they once loved because it would hurt them.

Let’s just make this very very clear, because you’re dodging the obvious part for some reason regardless of how every has spelt it out to you.

Let’s say, you and myself are mates. Have been for a very long time. I had a wife. She’s the mother of my children. We’ve only recently split up and I’m not dealing with it all too well.

You and her have started chatting and some light sparks are starting to fly. You could be on for something long term, there could be genuine feelings involved. At the same, you know that it would absolutely rock me to my core to find out that you’ve been rooting her. We’re mates, and I have kids with this women. It’s complicated and the situation is currently very fragile.

You’ve got options here. You could A - tell her sorry, I don’t want to make this already hard situation even harder for my mate for what could just be a few nights of passion that fizzle out to nothing. B - you could come and chat to me about it, let me know you think it could be genuine and work through it all with me before you move forward. Or C - you could sneak around behind my back and tell yourself hey, he doesn’t own this woman, what does it matter?

Please, tell the big footy world, what do you think the best way of dealing with the situation is. And, if you chose the latter over either of the former, how do you think you should be judged by your social circle?

Don't even bother, there's lots of men on this forum who spend their whole time being women's rights activists. it's particularly strange given this is a football forum so the demographic is mostly white blokes.

Garry Lyon is a well known shit campaigner and Brainless's ex is obviously a moron if those two men are her track record. as bad as each other. making it into some conversation about women's perception in society is outright odd. she's a scrubber.

A fair bit of it also has to do with how incredibly bland this forum is now. the most popular GD thread is about shopping centres ffs. no one here has any life experience.

What the ****s this all about

 

[errant bounce]

I've had close mates start messaging old high school girlfriends of mine, which I found particularly odd.

Women can jag a root far easily than a guy can and generally stick to their code stronger than blokes. most women are immediately off a dude if he's been with a friend of hers.

Maybe people just have ethics and respect for their friends? I know it would hurt me a huge amount if a friend of 10+ years slept with someone I at some stage cared about.

Plus, like, who wants to sleep with their mate's ex? there's plenty of women out there, I don't need to be reminded my friend has had these chats, slept in this bed...

Option D - she could make her own decision on what she wants to do and when, and take it completely out of the man’s hands.

“Back in my day”

 

[McIvor]

AFL 360 has become , Needs 2 new people coming in and some others getting the flick, King and Montagne should be the first 2 out the door
Then again make the Midweek Tackle go for 90 mins, the best footy show on Fox Footy now
Also If guests are not there in person, don’t have them on

So just make it a VFL based program I assume?

No doubt people shouldn’t WFH either if they’re able or their employer is happy for them to

 

[ROYAL EAGLE]

Give the job to Kath

 

[threesixpio]

Yep. Can't stand him.
I simply can't respect him for what he did to Brownless.

Yep they should bring in Carey instead


Oh wait

 

[Pure_Ownage]

I’ll say it again.

Men don’t own women. If a woman decides to **** a man then she’s made her own decision. Good luck to her.

No one is commenting on any decision the woman made.

We are commenting on Garry's ethics (lack thereof) which is a completely separate issue. The two aren't mutually exclusive.

 

[WillHayward]

Why isn't this just in the fifth estate forum
No scandal or rumour

 

[sthmelb_dimmies]

Yep. Can't stand him.

Mister or Missus Brownless?

can see this blowing up spectacularly.

two of the biggest egos in afl media with no capacity to play second fiddle.
