One of my pet hates is that football players (ad on tv atm) are considered 'warriors' and at around ANZAC day the players play with the ANZAC spirit. Fuck me. These pampered bastards have multi million dollar gyms and when they finish the 'game' they are massaged, get to wallow in the spa, straight in to the bar for drinkies before they go out to pick up some adoring 16 year old to have sex with.
These ’heroes’ cry if the ground is too wet. They come to the country to play a game and complain that the ground is too rough and not up to 'standard'. If they want to embrace the ANZAC spirit, give them a gun and take them to Afghanistan for a month. Then, and only then they might understand what my grandfather went throught at Gallipoli and in France during WW1.
The AFL has nothing to do with sport. Nada. The AFL is a business and in the business to make money. If the AFL was a sport, it would provide a level playing field for ALL clubs to compete under. If you look at the football draw of games, the top money earning clubs are contrived to be in the finals. This is not sport. It is a cynical grab for money from the increasing 'bogan' nation.
