Is Gary Ablett playing an international sport? No, but Gary Ablett is representing not only the Gold Coast Suns but the AFL both on and off the field.bennymacca wrote:Is Gary ablett representing australia when he plays?
You're right, is definitely not a reflection on Australia as a whole, but people will still identify him as being Australian, and if he wants to act like a goose then yes he is embarrassing our proud sporting nation.bennymacca wrote:I dont think his antics are a reflection on Australia as a whole, they are a reflection on him. And he was pretty poor last night. He needs to get better at that, because he let his emotions get the better of him. He is a better tennis player than Gasquet and should have beaten him.

He is a product of his environment. Give him a break and let him work out what works for him and what doesn't. I am pretty sure the opinion of everyday Aussies is not going to sway him one bit.

People make choices, if he wants to listen to his entourage blow smoke up his arse then that's his call. Like I said, he's a big boy now, time to put your big boy pants on.
PS - He won't be #1 with his attitude and lack of humility.

How will this affect his ability to hit a ball over the net?

Hewitt would never have rolled over and given a game away. He was ruthless, to his own detriment at times, this bloke is not.
