As someone pointed out earlier in this thread, Dustin Martin was issued a $2000 suspended fine for making the crossed arm gesture during a game against Carlton.
The Afl's justification for this fine was that "portions of the crowd or audience may be upset" by Martins actions.
It is very clear from this thread and social media in general that a portion of the crowd or audience on Friday (be they racists, bigots or otherwise) WERE upset by Adam Goodes' actions, and although I and most of the fair minded football public took no offence, the Afl has set a precedent and in the interests of consistency Goodes should have been issued a suspended fine.
After all, isn't the definition of racism treating someone differently because of their race?
