Re: South Melbourne Keystone Cops
Not Sandilands, but someone like Robert Wadlow absolutely was disabled because of his extreme height. He required leg braces to walk, and had little feeling in his legs and feet. His glandular problems led to his early death. And if you don't know any little people (and it's pretty evident most of y...

Re: Who the HELL????
If you don't even know that it is legally and politically ok to call little people 'disabled', why am I wasting my time with you? Go visit a disability group - any cross disability group in your area - which includes little people. Of course... of course... of course... they will use the term disabl...

No worries Dragit.
If we learned nothing else from Essendope, we learned that you should always stand up for what is right.

Legally, there is no debate... little people are disabled.

I've been in touch with a lot of people, actually.
Yes, I emailed the victim.
And I've emailed and chatted with an awful lot of disability advocates, and also media people.

Re: Who the HELL????
Yep, if I was the club I'd pay the guy off and cover it up. Not saying that's what they will do, but I'd be spreading an Essendon-style misinformation campaign about any scandal, if I'd had our scandal-plagued history of recent years. So... we now hear the denials, which are being reframed as "...

Re: Demetriou in hot water for laughing about burnt dwarf
Yeah, you find that a lot of the people involved in football have a very poor moral compass.
They don't stand up to bullying, or even hate crimes.
It disgusts me, frankly, to see them laugh.

Thanks for the personal attention; but I didn't really need it. All I want is for someone to be charged, if they've done the crime, and if it is a disability hate crime... I want them to go to jail. I might be alone on this forum saying that, but I am far from alone in the disability community in th...

Re: Who the HELL????
I'm contacting the press and offering to give a disability rights perspective on this matter. I am 100% certain on this; I've seen it many times before... this is not just unacceptable; it's not just abuse; it's criminal and its got to be condemned.

Re: Who the HELL????
I've dedicated my life to stopping the abuse of disabled people. I wrote a book about hate crimes against people with disabilities. This sort of stuff is appalling and unfortunately very common. I don't care how long I've followed St. Kilda, I hope someone goes to jail for this. There is NO EXCUSE f...

A stream for tonight's shows
Hi If anyone knows of a stream that I could access to watch any discussion shows in the wake of today's charges being revealed, I would really appreciate it. The worst thing about the AFL taking down the older streams (for an AFLTV subscriber like me) is that you don't get to see any of the footy sh...

Re: saints kangaroos
Was that Jason Blake in the ruck? Surely not!
We needed a full-time ruckman in that role.
Maybe Michael Rix?
Yeah, Rix would have been much better.
In fact, Rix rox rucks!

I will always remember (but try to forget) Peckett kicking it straight to an Adelaide player in a kick in a few times in 1997, including in the Grand Final. Made me think of him as a GOP.
