If a player calls another player a f....t, does the punishment increase if they are gay?

It should decrease!

Wait.

You're saying he should get less of a penalty, for using a derogative term, just because the player that was insulted is of homosexual origin?

Have I read this correctly?

Seems Adelaide aren't going to cop the 5 weeks and are pushing back.

Surely that's like telling your parents you're not going to your room when you got sent there, you end up there one way or another so just go.

What I'm saying is (if I'm a proud gay man), it's not a lie & it would be like water off a duck's back (like any other insult)
BUT if I wasn't gay I'd take it far more personally & I'd want the penalty to be greater.

Is this similar to getting double demerit points on public holidays if caught speeding?

Would almost be amusing if the AFL turned around and said 8 it is then

I know he didn't get the final results and it's a results-based industry but too a point i can understand why they kept him as long as they did. Genuinely great people with the clubs best interest at hearts isn't as common as we would like or think it is.

Will there be riots, cars on fire, looting etc when they hand down a verdict?
