You got me there Ice, I'm PMSL and cringing at the same time!

I sentence you to three felafels without houmous.
So I have to travel all that way to the western suburbs of Sydney...?

Either that or plead collingwood.

FORMER AFL star Andrew Krakouer has been jailed for a minimum of 16 months for a vicious and brutal assault outside a Fremantle nightclub.

District Court Judge Kate O'Brien today sentenced the 25-year-old ex-Richmond Tiger for bashing 24-year-old Justin Martin by kicking him in the head and upper body during a fist fight on December 22 2006.

i don't care what anybody says...kicking a bloke when he is on the ground is a dog act and the perpetrator deserved to be sent to gaol........would i be happy with this guy playing at the saints....no i wouldn't.....does he deserve a second chance at life....of course he does...doesn't mean that i would want to associate..or be associated with him though......eddie can have him...he would be right at home at filthpark along with the didaks, shaws, pendleburys, and wellinghams....

as for eddie everywhere...you lay down with dogs you get fleas...and eddie is giving ..rather than receiving.... here.....

If so, did they laud him?

Funny article and i can see the guys point when it is pointed out however i think that generally the person that sees it this way in the first place is the most racist

Why has nobody mentioned the 'falafel land' comments he made in relation to Western Sydney?

Patrick Smith in a gentle slap at Eddie today speaks of the scourge of racism - but the counter productive nature of squealing racism when it isn't...

and as I understand it, the comment that had Eddie fuming (after Krakouer kicked a point on Saturday night) was: "If it had have been someone's head you would have kicked it, Krakouer."

Fair game imo. No race slur there, just a comment on Krakouer's violent criminal past.

And, if true, reasonably witty next to most of the dribble you get at the footy.

Is this woman mental? Aren't high paid journos supposed to keep up with the news?

"EDDIE McGuire's comments about the racial taunting of players are spot on......

...McGuire appeared to believe the comments he responded to so forcibly on Saturday night were racially motivated, if not actually racist. And so he had a right to condemn them...."

Actually, that's bloody funny. If he did say that, I'm impressed...I'd take back my 'brainless oxygen thief' comment. Otherwise, BOT or not, attacking the guy by screaming insults over something that has nothing to do with footy is really asking for a negative reaction IMO.
