WE fight like men.

You put your right in foot in you pull your right foot out, you put your right hand in and you shake it all about, you do the pushy bumpy and you turn yourselves around, that's what its all about.

Seriously, it's the feminisation of men out there these days in the AFL . Club footy's ok though.

Truth hurts huh? :<>

You goose, marngrook is naturally a violent sport. It involves contact aimed at knocking men down dunderhead.

Not at all - I've had my share of punch ups - in a former life Fiday, Saturdays and Sunday's were all about busting up those fighting - bur I have a 14 yr old son - I have seen enough of people getting seriously injured sometimes for life just because some ape with too much testosterone and an overwhelming desire to prove they are tough! Hitting someone in the face like Gallen did is neither tough or courageous - backing back into a pack has these virtues the same as standing under a bomb. You can call it feminisation of the game - but I'd rather than than my son being a vegetable or worse still lose his life because of some immature and misguided attitude to what toughness and courage is!

So KE I don't care what you think it reflects on you not me, however immature or silly it may be - but I do care about my son and his welfare and if that means stopping violence in sport I'm more than happy to accept that!

You goose, marngrook is naturally a violent sport. It involves contact aimed at knocking men down dunderhead. Now, I'll say it again, and we're unfortunately seeing it in RL currently, putting blanket rules on fisticuffs gives significant rise to dirty, dog tactics and foul play such as king hits and other sneaky illegal shots which are more likely to result in kids being vegetables. Fisticuffs reduces this kinda play because, as Myles found out, you can get snotted good and proper if you engage in headbutting, leg twisting and the like. And lets not forget what myles said before gallen snotted him good "Comon merkin, lets go!" or something of the like. Grow a brain swines, you're simply narrow minded on this matter.

"But whaaaaatt about the children" scream those fathers and mothers with no clear insight into the sport
