NO AFL IN THE SANFL BANNER WEEKLY UPDATE

[kickinit]

Offensive language - threatening, abusive or insulting. So swearing is fine as long as it's not threatening, abusive or insulting.

Well done kickinit. We all learnt something today. Pat yourself on the back and have another cup of Weight Gain 4000. BEEFCAKE.

me a beefcake biggest internet troll/ keyboard warrior i'm sure your more of a beefcake then me.

the funny thing is and i quote

I think you will find there is no law regarding swearing in public. SANFL football ground bylaws may be different. If I am wrong please show me where.

there is a law about swearing, it just depends how the person interrupts it. If they find it threatening, abusive or insulting then you can be charged. next time your out in public and see a police officer go and swear at them with threatening, abusive and insulting words and so how long before your locked up.

[The Sleeping Giant]

You just repeated what I posted ffs.

There is no law regarding swearing in public. There is one in regard to offensive language.

[mickey]

So i can call TSG a stupid ******* ****, he takes no offence, i dont get arrested..

I call whufc a retarded dwarf, he takes offence, i do get arrested??

[The Sleeping Giant]

That's it.

[johntheclaret]

WESLO in UK?

Bring Back 'The Firms' & The Terraces

Who said they ever went away

[CENTURION]

What is happening here....?

Take a step back guys.

what do you mean?

[CENTURION]

Kickinit, I won't be taking it further with the cops because the whole incident is that ridiculous & trivial, in my opinion, that it doesn't warrant further action. I thought about it when the ranga shoved me in the chest when we were outside & not many people were around but.....nah. I'm not 17 anymore & I have far more important things to concern myself with.

Are we to assume you meant see how long before you are locked up ? Well the answer is probably you wont be as it depends on how he/she " interrupts it" Oh dear, a pedant that can't spell.

Kick In It, there must have been a Kick In It when you were born, mate. To your head.

People like you at least make life interesting.

Enjoy your job at Weslo.

[CENTURION]

makes me wonder, if I folded over the NO bit on Eric, then held it up at the footy, would there still such a huge hoo haa?

[smac]

Huge hoo ha's are no good to anyone.

[Dogwatcher]

Huge hoo ha's are no good to anyone.

Huh? Hoo ha?
Are you saying there should be no hoo ha?

[CENTURION]

sorry Albert.

[Dogwatcher]

I've seen some ladies with nice hoo hahs.

Firstly, well done to you Centurion. The situation could have escalated quickly had you shown further resistance to the police.Good on you.

Despite TSG's claim there is no such thing as bad publicity, consider the media getting hold of a Centrals supporter being evicted and then arrested over a banner being held up at an SANFL. I think we all agree that the message on the banner would not be the focus of the story. Furthermore, if Centurion had not been so willing to follow the directions and things had got further out of hand and more people involved/evicted/arrested then the story would have been more about unruly behaviour at a Centrals game than Eric's message. Again, you did the best thing possible on the day, well done mate.

On the flip side, if the police want to evict anyone from the ground for almost any reason, they will do so. I obviously dont agree with it in this situation but there is little doubt the police, along with security need these powers. How they best use them is certainly open to debate.

THEN, once the match had concluded, they marched me back to my car, where I secured Eric, & they proceeded to tell me that I had to vacate the premises. Is that standard practice? Why did I have to leave my club?

In short yes!

It seems OTR may have some more intimate knowledge of how these things work, so perhaps we should refer to his knowledge of the protocol involved.

[CENTURION]

OTR spent a LOT of time in jails.

*Edit*

I am concerned the message this banner was intended to send will get lost in this whole ordeal. Not what the owner nor any of the supporters of this would want.

No point making enemies in higher places just for the sake of it.

Anyone else see a common link between the posters who "seem" to have a problem with the banner, or what occurred on Saturday.

I guess booney has never heard the saying 'no such thing as bad publicity' either. Would love the media to jump on the story, and see wherw it goes from there.

[Booney]

I have no issues with the banner or its message and I certainly know of the saying. Lots of old sayings around, doesn't mean they are right or that I have to agree with them!

I think Centurion is doing a very good job of getting the message across.

If you trust the media to report things accurately, good on you.
