What a dog act.

Yes there are 2 sides to every story but the fact is Archer resorted to punching a junior level umpire in the face.

My son plays afl in NSW and  is 12 years old. I would hate him to see such a dog act.

ps sorry about the grammar in the title, I could not work out how to change it.

Archer's got $2,900 sitting in his car ashtray.

Disgracefully light penalty for someone who should know better (even though he's a thug) and is a wealthy man. 

 

Game in the division below mine for the same age group, can't comprehend how bad a call could be that would've caused him to jump the fence and assault the runner... Especially when his sons team was 10 goals up!


What exactly have the Archers of Glen done?

I'm outraged!!

It seems this view is shared by Mr. Archer Ethan.

According to today's "Rage", Archer described the judgement as "crazy" and claims he was judged on only "three per cent of the story".

Poor dear.

I appreciate the sentiment but dogs are great: loyal, friendly, funny and empathetic so how about you find a new descriptor for appalling behaviour.

(BTW your son plays Australian Rules football, not AFL. It's a personal hate of mine. I like our indigenous game to be known by its origins, not by a competition that we all happen to follow.)

My 2 boys played junior footy some years back and I reckon you see the worst behaviour by adults at a footy match. So many people have to take out their life frustrations watching 10 year olds play footy.


Without knowing the full story, or watching the 'face-slap video', I would back Glenn Archer as a decent human being any day of the week.

Leopards don't changes their spots.  Likewise, angels don't grow horns.

Two sides to every story.  I'm sticking fat with Archer.

    Melbourne’s early surge of optimism came crashing back to reality in its clash with Fremantle at Optus Stadium on Saturday night.
