Talking Footy

So this bloke Fahour has form. Wow!! He served 3 weeks earlier in the season for a similar thing. I'd say by weeks end he'll be unemployed.

A very stingy slap on the wrist - if he does it again!

I'd say he'll get a lengthy suspension and will then resign from his position.

But wait he might get booed? when he comes back to his local footy. oh his got some ethnic background wait....RACISTS! just like with Goodies, F*&King lefties playing the racist card once again.

Oh and there is Houli too

Or he'll be dealt with by the relevant tribunal for his indiscretions and keep his employment like any other player in the damn game would.

How can he keep his employment .
I don't think Fumblehouse can make this one disappear .

& king hitting a bloke just after a surgeon died from a king hit is a really good look for the sport .

Yet the NSW blues "hero"/worshipped in the NRL, Fifita thug had supported his one punch killer mate whilst playing a match. Good one mate

He's a high ranking official in the AFL and needs to go. He has form ... jumping a fence to attack a spectator I believe... he can't hold a position which requires integrity. He should know better

Spot on .

well look there, the AFL acted. So much for the RL fans comments in here

Bullshit the AFL acted .
Are you fucking blind ?
He was outed from his local comp .. Dealt with by the local comp judiciary.
Nothing to do with his AFL job
His job as an aflol official ...well the AFL did nothing .
He should have been sacked straight away ...there was video evidence of a king hit ....
Yet they did nothing .
It was left for
This piece of shit to fall on his sword .
He acted
The AFL did nothing

Do you ever deal with the facts ?

Wookie why this moved
It's a fight club topic .....player/official behaviour.
Just like the topics about RL behaviour .

He stood down most likely from pressure applied by the AFL. He wasnt sacked straight away because the AFL didnt want to influence the local leagues tribunal.

Your cynicism is astounding

So it would appear I was correct. He got a lengthy ban and is now deregistered as a player and resigned from his job before he was pushed.

And for the folks here saying he should be allowed to return to his job like anyone else: It's a little bit more nuanced than that. He wasn't a truckie, a chippie or an accountant - he was an employee of the AFL. That's a massive difference. He had to go.

I have no issue with the result, his ban looked appropriate, and the ramifications justified. I do find it funny how assumptions were made this would be a cover up to save the AFL from embarrassment. How'd that go? How did the supposed AFL friendly media go? All figments of our tossballer's imagingations, as usual

Well done to fumblehouse and anyone else involved in this. But considering the footage widely seen of the 2 incident's they hardly had anywhere else to go wit this one.
