Jetta first man charged for 'staging' in the AFL comp

[Xman]

Ahhh did i say violence was in all sports? Sheesh is there a class below comprehension 101? If yes get yourself enrolled Xman.

Stop playing with words. You know exactly what the topic is. Avoiding it now doesn't excuse your behaviour!

[King-Eliagh]

Yes he certainly is 'seeing things' isnt he eels. I'm unsure whether its me causing it or whether he's just naturally rattled and confused like this.

Xman? Care to shed some light on your state of being? Whats causing it?

Me playing with words? You're the one stating things which were never spoken. Pull your socks up Xman!

Bottom line, you endorse brawling in RL! The very intent of brawlng is to physically hurt another person. This is not part of any game. Shame!

[King-Eliagh]

And again you're wrong. I endorse the NRLs more lenient approach to fisticuffs and believe this is appropriate given the nature of the sport. Sheesh do you even read?

And I seriously now doubt you have ever played marngrook or any other contact sport like you say you have. Physically intimidating an opponent in both RL and marngrook is a massive part of both the sports. If you are able to put a good shot on an opponent, you can both physically and mentally gain the edge. Coaches and fans encourage it, and players strive to gain ascnedancy through physically imposing themselves on their opponent.

Do you know anything about the game you love Xman? Or is it just that you're rattled and confused still?

[Xman]

On a related note, State of Origin should be a ripper this wednesday, plenty of passion ensures the chance of fisticuffs is increased. Perhaps some of the AFL fans will take note and see the importance of allowing the odd fist to be thrown in the heat of battle.

Aren't these your comments?

Does your little tricycle have a reversing alarm? It should you're backpedalling so fast!

[King-Eliagh]

Yes my comments precicely...And your point here Xman?

[Xman]

Comprehension broken?

" the importance of allowing the odd fist to be thrown in the heat of battle"

pathetic!

[King-Eliagh]

Ahh yeah. And?

What on earth are you trying to say my confused child?

[Xman]

Ahh yeah. And?

What on earth are you trying to say my confused child?

You are condoning fist fighting as a necessary part of RL!

People copy sporting heroes. Kids Copy sporting heroes. Allowing fist fights in the highest level of this sport promotes it as acceptable behavior. It's not. Violence as not an answer to societies problems. These SOO meat heads punch on at the smell of confrontation. It happened in the game. One guy gets a ball thrown at the back of his head then it's an all in with many punches thrown. And what's the penalty? People like you applaud it.

Disgraceful!

[King-Eliagh]

Dear god, you really are pathetic my confused and rattled child. You know you sound like Reverend Lovejoy's wife "But whaaat about the children!"

Now I want you to read closely. I'm arguing that rules relating to fisticuffs be no different to other elements of foul play like head high tackles. The AFL have got it wrong banning players for 8 weeks. Completely wrong.

Now to our timely example in SOO 1. Throwing the ball at someones head is unsportsmanlike and deserves punishment. Players, in the heat of battle, took things into their own hands. They're human. Noone was hurt. Everyone loved it. A penalty was given and everyone got on with it. It was a lovely display of passion in my opinion, no wonder more Australian families love SOO than the AFL GF.

Fighting is part of human nature and therefore it should be accepted, to a degree, in physical contact sports. If its not you see more unsportsmanlike behaviour, frustrated players and those horrible jumper punches which always go unpenalised. I mean what are the kiddies learning there Xman? To basically bend the rules and get a cheap shot in?

The AFL has it wrong Xman now deal with it and stop crying like reverend lovejoys wife ya big hermaphrodite!

Fist fighting, or even full on punches in the AFL are extremely rare because the AFL have taken the offence seriously. The NRL have not. Their fans, like you, have not. And therefore it is seen regularly in RL.

[King-Eliagh]

And thats fine if it is seen regularly. Its passion. The AFL we see more dog acts like jumper punches, rather than two man standing toe to toe like men should. Good values, that's what the NRL rules support. The AFL supports bending the rules and throwing cheap shots which they get away with. The NRL players take their punishment/penalties 'on the chin' so to speak for their misconduct. AFL players get away with atrocious and cowardly acts such as jumper punching (which on many occasions are just as dangerous as a normal punch) and shoulder charging injured players as they leave the field. Unbeleivable stuff that these acts are not penalised at all.

The AFL - got it wrong on this one, that's for sure, not even reverend lovejoys wife would disagree.

Fist fighting equals passion?

So that's a defense in court is it? "you're honor I punched him in the head and yes he now has brain damage, but it was about passion!"

Fist fighting is outlawed in society and sport for a reason. Get with the times you bogan!

[King-Eliagh]

Fist fighting exemplefies passion, as does a massive hit. In fact violence, in all its forms on the marngrook and RL fields exemplify just how passionate the players are to be out there and to put their body on the line for their team. Xman you value safety over passion, making you a very dull boy, and one who doesnt understand what it is to, and never would have, put your body on the line.

So ahh please cite one example where a fist fight led to brain damage on the RL field?

God help us if you ever get a job controlling the rules of the game.
