Geez some of you are good at spinning a narrative out of proportion. You’ve been banging on about the media twisting stories, but you’re guilty of doing it yourself now.
When Des dropped Schu because he was unfit and out of shape, was he fat shaming him or did he expect his player to be in peak condition for performance?
all that’s been suggested is that it can be advantageous for coaches to model the kind of diet, health and fitness they demand from their players…why? Because of the optics. It’s the same reason a businessman wears a suit to work.
If you want to sensationalise it as fat shaming, go right ahead, but frankly, that’s ignorant and disingenuous. I’m sure you’ll have something to throw back over the fence but I’m not going to entertain any further discussion on the matter.
