Did anyone notice that one of the Twitter trolls who fat-shamed Magda Szubanski on the New Daily website today signed in as gtmelb with an MFC logo as their icon?

I think this is disgraceful and brings the club into disrepute.

Does anyone know someone who twitters as " gtmelb "? 

I realise these gutless trolls hide behind their web anonymity. I am posting this in the faint hope this person can be identified.

If that can be done, should any action be taken?

I did notice it, and I found it disgraceful.  Unfortunately there are gutless creeps in all supporter bases from different clubs.  Aside from having an MFC logo for their profile picture, I'm not sure what action could be taken, aside from Magda reporting it if she chooses to do so.

Going by their Twitter posts, this person is by and large a massive [censored] in lots of ways, it seems.

Awful. I get age-shamed at the pool I swim in occasionally. People don’t realise how hurtful it is

 

Tell me about it Cass! Last week at work I called a PowerPoint presentation a PowerPoint presentation instead of a “slide pack”… got told by the younger ones that they could tell I was pushing 40. #AgeIsJustANumberDontShameMe.

I've been called a lot of things over my lifetime but none of it ever worried me, why give anyone the satisfaction of knowing they've got in your head.

People are too precious now; they wouldn't have survived in the time when I grew up.

Like me, you grew up in an era where social media etc didn’t exist and so bullying etc was pretty much limited to the schoolyard, workplace etc. Now, people often have to deal with it all of the time and short of isolating themselves completely, they don’t have any easy way of escaping it. Nothing about being too precious at all.

  • AFLW REPORT: Richmond

    A glorious sunny afternoon with a typically strong Casey Fields breeze favouring the city end greeted this round four clash of the undefeated Narrm against the winless Tigers. Pre-match, the teams entered the ground through the Deearmy’s inclusive banner—"Narrm Football Weaving Communities Together and then Warumungu/Yawuru woman and Fox Boundary Rider, Megan Waters, gave the official acknowledgement of country. Any concerns that Collingwood’s strategy of last week to discombobulate the Dees would be replicated by Ryan Ferguson and his Tigers evaporated in the second quarter when Richmond failed to use the wind advantage and Narrm scored three unanswered goals.

  • CASEY: Frankston

    The late-season run of Casey wins was broken in their first semifinal against Frankston in a heartbreaking end at Kinetic Stadium on Saturday night that in many respects reflected their entire season. When they were bad, they committed all of the football transgressions, including poor disposal, indiscipline, an inability to exert pressure, and some terrible decision-making, as exemplified by the period in the game when they conceded nine unanswered goals from early in the second quarter until halfway through the third term. You rarely win when you do this.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

    Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.

  • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

    Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.

  • CASEY: Williamstown

    The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

    Narrm time isn’t a standard concept—it’s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.
