Where did I say I was abusive or anything? I am actually well balanced and accepting of all. It would actually be more a welcome to the club more than anything and to make sure the club is unified in all fronts.
I wrote Penn a letter voicing my views on the way the club has inadvertently put our playing group under immense pressure from the radical left. I’ll also be doing the same to Mestrov on warning him to pull any of these stunts.
Put yourself in their shoes. They are very devout religious people. They play for their culture and their families they are the most dedicated and humble human beings.
Would you want to let your family down if you were in their position. It is very easy for you to say “just wear the jersey” but...
Exactly right. You don’t have to accept their views, they’re not forcing that upon anyone.
But it is utterly disgusting some of of the vile comments on here slamming those players. Why is the lie not blaming more with the club who sprung it on everyone.
This could’ve been done collectively in...
There’s something called religious freedom laws in this country. The players have every right to refuse to wear these jerseys. A lot of you around here would be suited to a communist regime where you’re only allowed one view.
Way too many bigots slamming the poor blokes who were put in this...
You can’t force them to wear a jersey that promotes a political message. When they signed their contracts their uniform was maroon and white, they play for all parts of the community in those jerseys.
You’d think the players would’ve have been consulted but I think they were scared because they...
How about the marketing team expose themselves instead of hiding behind these releases. The 7 players didn’t deserve to be put in this situation, they’re not the ones at fault.
Sack the marketing team.
He’s a religious man, and you can bet he would be furious at the amateur hour at the front of head office. Nothing he isn’t used to around this joint.
Can’t believe the intolerance that some of you around here have for the 7 players who have stood up for their beliefs. Rules for everyone except...
Des would be ropable that some woke uni graduate in marketing has derailed our season. Disgusting that this did not get run through the board and players before it got off the ground.
You know you can be inclusive without needing to bring in a rainbow jersey, right?
Everyone is welcome to play and support the maroon and white jersey.
It’s a combination of things.
We should only be playing in home/away/heritage. That’s 3 jerseys max. Anything extra is a marketing gimmick and cheapens the club.
Why the need for the LGB jersey? This club has always been a club for all fans from all walks of life. No matter what race, colour...
So they’re calling it the “Everyone in league jersey”. If that’s the case why do they need to create a jersey for a particular group in society. What a load of woke crap.
We’ve got one jersey for all, no matter race, religion, sexuality, etc.
BWSE is not working. How about we invest properly in the Manly-Warringah comp.
If you’re a young kid coming through the local comp you’d be a bit put off that the club seems to be investing in the west instead of the kids who grow up supporting the club.
