Goodes: Why am I Booed?

[Dave The Man]

[Skids]

Anyone would think it only happens to him.

Bucks used to cop it, severely at Boobiaco Oval. &%%& me, they boo the sunset at Subi

[Hiss]

[neil]

He cops shit because he is indigenous
He did not demand to be Australian of the Year ( at least it wasnt a politician)
Yes he stages for frees as do a lot of players

So you think this fine Australian of the Year is a flog? What right does a peasant like you have to judge someone as respected as Adam Goodes. Racism is alive and well on here.

Yeah, and you're leading the charge.

Flog.

[Clemo]

wtf!!! Buckley used to get booed all the time

Goodes - no need to play the racist card as a smokescreen - stop playing for frees and kneeing into the opposition

[Culprit]

Of all the people that supposedly represent my culture there are two that I despise as they play the race card at any opportunity. Goodes & Michael Mansell. They are so full of their self importance they have forgotten where they came from.

[Piesnchess]

you are a flog. that's not based on your race. it's just, you are one.

You Just Figured that out

lol dave.

players get booed for any number of reasons.

judd gets booed probably for his chicken wing antics.
watson got booed cos of the drug saga.
daisy gets booed for playing for the flogs.

True, MOST players get booed at times, my grandmother, an old Roys fan, used to boo our Lou Richards a lot, she called him an ankle tapper. ! Goodes is too sensitive by half, has it ever, ever hit him that this has nothing to do with his colour or his race ? Its how he plays the game, his footy smarts, his playing for frees, his sniping, his litltle cheating antics on the field, nothing to do with racism. HTFU Goodes, you are making a damn fool of yourself, hell, i recall des tuddenham used to get booed a lot, as did tony shaw. Grow up and grow a set, for chrissakes.

[yin-YANG]

so where do they come from Culprit?

Where's the racism????

He doesn't get booed because he's indigenous. Opposition supporters have booed players of all ethnicities....

Maybe it's the sliding in with knees, staging for frees, whingeing.

[Culprit]

so where do they come from Culprit?

Mansall is from Tasmania and is a decedent from the Palawa (Tasmanian Aboriginal). Goodes is from Woolaroo in SA. White Father I think Irish from memory and his mother was Indigenous.

[Golden Gordon]

Amazing. He's like clockwork Adam Goodes. Indigenous round coming up, so he calls a press conference to foment the idea that he is being racially targeted. You know if he hadn't had a 13 year old kid thrown out of the ground none of this would be happening.

[kymbo5@yahoo.com.au]

its not racist, Goodes being booed, if it was, surely Rioli, Jetta and co would have been booed too wouldn't they? Not withstanding Rioli is a Dawks player of course.
I personally think the majority of people just didn't like his behaviour re the 13 yo girl saga.
