It's not actually interesting in any way. Scumbag dorkheads are scumbag dorkheads in any context and any shite that happens to them as a consequence is fine by me.

Re Harry. Pre-emptive? In your dreams sunshine. That particular turkey has form. There is nothing remotely pre-emptive about calling out a serial attention-seeker; it's just saying what is (and indeed has been for years). Nothing to see here, move along please.

Indeed, H didn't mind attention when he was in his early 20's and bragging about all the white women queued up for BBC rides.
Every dead body on Mt Everest was once a highly motivated person, so maybe just calm the **** down.

Lockett wouldn't have thrown you into a brick wall, he would have done it so hard your atoms would have merged with those of the wall on a sub atomic level, you would be one with the wall until the end of time.

Or until they tore the wall down.

Maybe more prevalent in rugby but certainly rife in aussie rules, too. Just ask Dal Santo & Nick Riewoldt.

Seems to be an anglo cultural thing.

I'd forgotten about Dal Santo, Revolt and the St Kilda Schoolgirl. Thanks for bringing that image back.

I still reckon it's Anglo as in English Boarding school stuff.

Quite possibly the most ridiculous thing the AFL have ever commented on. I thought it to be farce but then I remembered how the world works, atm, and my despair returned.
