I don't think he is that dirty a player or as much of a diver or sook as many others who are not booed. He is a good player - a very good player and he is a leader.
Could be a little bit of tall poppy syndrome mixed with some overt or subconscious racism imo. |
That just about sums it up, and I don't think for one second it's Goodes' fault.
He is booed more for the fact that he was made Australian of the year based on pointing out a comment a 13 year old girl made.
Rather silly when you think about it, if that's the qualification for maybe our greatest annual honour. That wasn't his fault though, someone else nominated him, and a panel of someone elses chose him.
I don't boo him, but I don't like him, and that's got nothing to do with racism or anything else, he is arrogant, that's my belief, and he is a very sore loser. Don't like that at all. |
Did you hear the Witch Caro call that Girl a “Stupid Collingwood Girl” on Footy Classfieds
Agree Matty. I don’t Boo Him but I am not a Fan as he is Arrogant and Sooks when he Loses _________________ I am Da Man |

You refer to a brilliant female journalist as a witch and seemingly hate one of the finest Aboriginal players ever to have played our game. I presume you also hate land rights and would welcome a return to the white Australia policy. You must despise the multi cultural round and feel sickened by the notion of female goal umpires encroaching on your passion for an all male pure white Australian game without asians or other minorities. The inclusion of Lin Jong into the Footscray side must have had you vomiting all night convulsing at the thought they could play an asian in the game you cherish. What does this make you? _________________ I love this club and I hold anyone in contempt who does not think it is worth fighting for. |

Of all the people that supposedly represent my culture there are two that I despise as they play the race card at any opportunity. Goodes & Michael Mansell. They are so full of their self importance they have forgotten where they came from. |

you are a flog. that's not based on your race. it's just, you are one. |
You Just Figured that out |
lol dave.
players get booed for any number of reasons.
judd gets booed probably for his chicken wing antics.
watson got booed cos of the drug saga.
daisy gets booed for playing for the flogs. |
True, MOST players get booed at times, my grandmother, an old Roys fan, used to boo our Lou Richards a lot, she called him an ankle tapper. ! Goodes is too sensitive by half, has it ever, ever hit him that this has nothing to do with his colour or his race ? Its how he plays the game, his footy smarts, his playing for frees, his sniping, his litltle cheating antics on the field, nothing to do with racism. HTFU Goodes, you are making a damn fool of yourself, hell, i recall des tuddenham used to get booed a lot, as did tony shaw.

That little rant coming from the REAL Hiss ??- the white anglo saxon proud aussie, who fought and died in 12 wars for this Nation, who props up bars in the RSL members and would not allow a female in cooee of the joint ?? all i can say is, where is the real Hiss and why have you taken over his keyboard ?? _________________ Poverty exists not because we cannot feed the poor, but because we cannot satisfy the rich.

He doesn't get booed because he's indigenous. Opposition supporters have booed players of all ethnicities....
Maybe it's the sliding in with knees, staging for frees, whingeing. _________________ - Side By Side - |

Mansall is from Tasmania and is a decedent from the Palawa (Tasmanian Aboriginal). Goodes is from Woolaroo in SA. White Father I think Irish from memory and his mother was Indigenous. |

Amazing. He's like clockwork Adam Goodes. Indigenous round coming up, so he calls a press conference to foment the idea that he is being racially targeted. You know if he hadn't had a 13 year old kid thrown out of the ground none of this would be happening. _________________ You can keep your Locketts. There was only ONE Gordon Coventry! |

its not racist, Goodes being booed, if it was, surely Rioli, Jetta and co would have been booed too wouldn't they? Not withstanding Rioli is a Dawks player of course.
I personally think the majority of people just didn't like his behaviour re the 13 yo girl saga. _________________ kymbo |
