Soapbox ranting aside, you still haven't stated why teenage AFL footballers shouldn't be allowed to have relations with teenage girls like all the other boys do.
Irrelevant babble aside, you are intentionally side-stepping the underlying issue, of which surrounds the professional responsibility and integrity of each individual player and the sport itself on the whole..., this and are conveniently ignoring what's expected of them (contract wise)..when they sign up with a team and get paid accordingly.
Cant have your cake and eat it too, cos with fame and fortune comes compromise...I guess it comes down to what they want more, a quick *uck, or the opportunity to earn a living doing what they love.
In disrespecting themselves, they are disrespecting the sport itself, and those who entrust them with the responsibility of promoting the game in our kids schools.
They want the fame, pay and glory that comes with being a professional footballer., though don't appear to be overly willing to make personal sacrifices when it comes to upholding the reputation of the institution itself. Much less their contracts.
How can they go around lecturing school-kids on self-respect, values, and good sportsmanship, personal responsibility, this and promoting the sport itself, when they are seen to be doing the exact opposite to what they preached just weeks before they hooked up with a school-girl, after first meeting her at her school.
How old do you think the nude players are, in the pic doing the rounds at present?
They are by no means teenagers, and should have known better, this or hooked up with an escort.
Did they honestly think a schoolgirl wouldn't kiss and tell?
....name the teenagers in the 'saints' team line-up involved in this incident with the schoolgirl.
Go on!
