Essendon players heard it, called him out on the field and made the umpire aware. He had no choice but to report it to the club at the break.

His wife has terminal cancer FFS, let’s get some perspective.
I’d be amazed if there is a single person on this site who has never said the words uttered by Clarkson or Finlayson.
Let him suffer whatever the court of public opinion will deliver and let it be.
Last time I looked we had freedom of speech. And before some people start having a go at me, I was incessantly racially vilified when I was young, even with racist taunts that had nothing to do with my heritage.
There shouldn’t be any difference between racial and sexual taunts.

Maybe...just maybe the two incidents between Finlayson and Clarko were not the same?
The fact he got a "discount' for owning up probably means it was heading for the same penalty as Tex.
Quite telling really...

That’s the question that rings in my head!
Is it offensive if the victim isn’t?

Agree however I would be surprised if anyone here has said it in the last 15 years.
Lets not forget footballers live in a different world, absolutely no excuse, but they are miles from a "normal" upbringing.
I would suggest he will get off lighter than Tex as he put his hand up straight away.
