Funny, the "anti woke" brigade are probably white males over 40 years old who called their neighbours Mr and Mrs when they kicked the footy on the road and when family came about you were seen, not heard and were polite as you addressed your Aunty and Uncle and if you didn't do any of the above the old man gave you a clip for being disrespectful. That's me

Those same people are outraged when people get upset at Holmes dressing as Wilson and Smith flipping the bird. That's not me

It is a funny time in which we live.

Most white males over 40, that I know, dont get outraged so easily.
They think (for about 1 second) that both Holmes and the woke brigade are just tossers.

I think outrage is hilarious, clearly you mellow as you get older but I find the current trend of moral outrage very humourous.

Did Smith actually dress up as Wilson?
I thought I read he dressed up as Brad Pitt from Legends of the Fall

I have never been prone to outrage
Yes; our parents taught us about respectfulness & politeness
As far as I can see, other than for serious crime, moral outrage is a relatively new phenomenon

Then again, the Elliott non free kick was up there..............

Max Holmes went as Caro, apparently he asked her beforehand as he'd gone as journos for the last couple of years. Literally nothing to be outraged about here

Ahh no, he stated Tuesday, as he covers for Whately, that he acknowledged Holmes had permission from Wilson to dress up as her for Mad Monday

He no outrage about that apart from his long held view on what is the point of dressing up to sink p!ss after you have been beaten in finals. So no outrage towards Holmes.

Cornes also came to the defence of fellow Channel 7 presenter Caroline Wilson who was portrayed by Max Holmes.

“Imagine Max Holmes thinking it’s a good idea to disrespect a legend of Australian football media in Caroline Wilson, dressing up as her and trying to ridicule her and have a photo of that and put the caption alongside of that,” he said.

“Geelong haven’t had many missteps, certainly off-field, for a fair amount of time. I thought that was one of the more embarrassing days at the Geelong Footy Club that I’ve seen in a while.

“Now, this isn’t new. They’ve owned this space for a long, long period of time. But at some point in time with the issues that there has been in and around dress-ups, clubs have just got to say, hey, you know what? It’s not book week. We’re not in year five.

“Let’s just turn up in a shirt and some jeans and have a good day, a few quiet beers, and celebrate a grand final loss where we got smashed in the second half because we don’t need to dress up and make ourselves look like fools.

“And I thought Close, Holmes, Smith, Dangerfield — I thought they embarrassed themselves yesterday.”

Mind you - he allegedly said that on SEN during the day so maybe Caro told him later that she said it was OK so maybe he corrected himself. (I bet he didn't apologise)
Good on Caro for agreeing - not as precious as a Cornes

Honestly Kane, tell us you have no mates without telling us you have no mates.

He’d be a hit at parties

Bold of you to assume he'd even be invited...

I think that's the point of it isn't it?

This is one of the better ones
Danger really looking like a f*cken idiot

Just to show Cornes has a sense of humour...........NOT

[whufc]

Nothing wrong with them dressing up and getting on the piss at the end of season.

Yeah, they lost but ultimately, they are very good mates who would have been through a bloody hell of a lot together, in the next few weeks blokes will retire, some will be traded, some will be delisted, and they will all move in different directions. Maybe the last time they ever see a few of the blokes.

At least a dress up makes it easy to remember what year was what.......'that was the year so and so dressed up as........'.

We want character and personalities in the game, and we get a chance to see a tiny bit of that in their sense of humour and all a sudden we want to shut it down.

Like the old 60 year old ex farmer i work with, geez he was rattled about Bailey Smith and Dangerfield having a photo with their arms around each other, there was definitely a few 'back in my days'
