Another Australian footballer has been charged with assaulting his partner. For the second time

I especially like how he did exactly the same thing last season when his team didn’t make the finals. Except his partner was pregnant that time.

Charming man.

It doesn’t seem to matter which football code it is it’s a rare month when a player isn’t involved in a scandal relating to sex or violence.

Let me just say this upfront and whole heartedly – these men are disgusting excuses for human beings, their attitudes and behaviour is abhorrent.

With that said these men are trained, supported and encouraged to be aggressive, violent, physically strong and full of testosterone on the field by families, friends, team-mates, sporting clubs and coaches.

And people are surprised when they act like this off the field?

Colour me fucking stunned.

If you create an animal, hell, you reward him for this type of behaviour what do you expect?

The thing that fucks me off is that Australia is never going to change their attitude towards footballers, they’ll never stop creating these men.

There are simply too many supporters who are willing to excuse disgusting behaviour off the field of the players provide results on the field. It’s the “boys will be boys” excuses followers give, the “she was asking for it” attitude when it’s a sexual scandal.

I’m not even going to start on the men themselves, I don’t have enough swear words to go there.

Sorry for the rant, I’m just disgusted at yet another one of these stories and even more furious that there’ll be another story next week/month.
