Barry Hall sacked from Melbourne Triple M

Post by Mr66 »

Barry Hall was sacked immediately after making a vulgar comment about a co-hosts pregnant wife, Doesn't seem to be any support/sympathy for him either.

Barry sacked, but Leyonjhelm untouched. Another set of rules for our politicians.

Was it Nathan Brown laughing at the comment?
He should go too!
Can’t stand him.

Whilst it was an unacceptable comment, I think it’s harsh on Barry.
He should be punished or reprimanded somehow but sacked??
I guess it’s the world we now live in.
There are no stupid questions, just stupid people.

What a disgusting comment by Hall to say on radio, so glad he got the flick.

Barry should have understood it was locker room talk not prime time radio broadcast talk.

Unfortunately no chance Triple M could keep him on.

And this is what separates you & me from others.
I ran front bars for years & heard some ordinary stuff - but this shit?
Hall’s a disgrace - nice work AFL inducting this clown into your HOF.
As for the rest of the Triple M boys, shame - you included Montagna for bringing your wife into this.

We have been in different locker rooms then.

I personally wouldn’t have said but definitely have heard worse said amongst mates.

Should be sacked as well

Hopefully its the last we ever hear of Hall
Nothing but a dirty mongrel thug on the field that should have been banned forever after his coward punch on Staker
The AFL was pathetic in dealing with that and hence the Grub has remained in the football spotlight since.
Sick of reading / hearing about people saying how great a guy he is and he s a great family man, and he's done this and that blah blah blah
And the Fact that he's in the AFL Hall of Fame is another embarrassment for the AFL :oops:

Some extreme over reactions going around

The guy made a boys talk mistake had probably been working all day was super tired and said something vulgar for a laugh amoungst the boys

Lost his job thats enough. Doesnt deserve to have his knees smashed with sledge hammers does he

What buddy did to rance is a worse dog act but he only gets a $1500 fine
