He vaped at 7 00:00:15,480 --> 00:00:18,040 Speaker 1: half time and put on his insta the fact that 8 00:00:18,079 --> 00:00:22,160 Speaker 1: he'd done it. He's been sacked and fined fifteen thousand dollars. 9 00:00:22,280 --> 00:00:24,600 Speaker 1: I read an article on the mcken saying we need 10 00:00:24,640 --> 00:00:28,000 Speaker 1: to take social media off these players. They the only 11 00:00:28,000 --> 00:00:31,240 Speaker 1: conduct with outside will should be signing autographs. They can't 12 00:00:31,280 --> 00:00:33,599 Speaker 1: be trusted when you think about Todd Carney, Poor old 13 00:00:33,640 --> 00:00:35,120 Speaker 1: John Carney with the bubbly incident. 14 00:00:35,240 --> 00:00:37,519 Speaker 3: He didn't post that on his own social media someone. 15 00:00:37,280 --> 00:00:38,560 Speaker 1: Else, but another footballer didn't. 16 00:00:39,120 --> 00:00:41,839 Speaker 4: That's the thing, Brod Todd Lusty's gig at the Sharks. 17 00:00:41,840 --> 00:00:44,159 Speaker 1: They don't help themselves either or their friends with it, 18 00:00:44,200 --> 00:00:46,160 Speaker 1: thinking all this stuff is funny, whether it's a sexual 19 00:00:46,240 --> 00:00:50,280 Speaker 1: escapade or drug taking or bad behavior. How much training 20 00:00:50,320 --> 00:00:54,720 Speaker 1: do they need to behave well? Because a big chunk 21 00:00:54,760 --> 00:00:57,960 Speaker 1: of their money comes from the pr they give to 22 00:00:58,000 --> 00:01:00,400 Speaker 1: the club and the team and to encourage you people 23 00:01:00,400 --> 00:01:02,880 Speaker 1: to take up the sport, not to take up vaping. 24 00:01:03,640 --> 00:01:06,040 Speaker 1: What are they thinking? Otherwise, go back to the old days. 25 00:01:06,040 --> 00:01:08,560 Speaker 1: We get one hundred thousand dollars and work as a labor, 26 00:01:08,680 --> 00:01:10,199 Speaker 1: which is what the football is. I mean, one hundred 27 00:01:10,200 --> 00:01:11,800 Speaker 1: thousand dollars would be a huge amount of money for 28 00:01:11,880 --> 00:01:14,119 Speaker 1: sure the old days. Go and make some cement. These 29 00:01:14,160 --> 00:01:16,440 Speaker 1: guys are on hundreds and hundreds of thousands of dollars 30 00:01:16,480 --> 00:01:19,240 Speaker 1: and part of that is to behave I'll be asking 31 00:01:19,240 --> 00:01:21,440 Speaker 1: too much of them, or is it fair enough taking 32 00:01:21,480 --> 00:01:23,960 Speaker 1: social media off the plays? Is it passed the pub test? 33 00:01:24,240 --> 00:01:24,720 Speaker 2: Well? 34 00:01:24,959 --> 00:01:27,399 Speaker 3: Yes, And though I think that maybe they should go 35 00:01:27,480 --> 00:01:29,600 Speaker 3: back to how their parents brought them up. Why do 36 00:01:29,640 --> 00:01:31,800 Speaker 3: they need to be taught this stuff? Let them keep 37 00:01:31,840 --> 00:01:34,440 Speaker 3: their social media maybe and take their money off them. 38 00:01:34,640 --> 00:01:37,399 Speaker 3: I mean, seriously, how stupid are these people right now? 39 00:01:37,480 --> 00:01:39,800 Speaker 5: It doesn't no one has a right to tell anyone 40 00:01:39,800 --> 00:01:42,319 Speaker 5: else what they want to do in their contract life. 41 00:01:42,680 --> 00:01:45,360 Speaker 5: But just because they're stupid and they don't know how 42 00:01:45,400 --> 00:01:48,920 Speaker 5: to behave doesn't lean anyone has the right to say 43 00:01:49,280 --> 00:01:51,360 Speaker 5: you kind of do something, no. 44 00:01:51,440 --> 00:01:54,520 Speaker 4: Because they're going to do stupid things anyway. Social media 45 00:01:54,680 --> 00:01:56,840 Speaker 4: if a to them. What they put on there shouldn't 46 00:01:56,840 --> 00:01:59,600 Speaker 4: be taken away from them. They're they stupid enough to go. 47 00:01:59,560 --> 00:02:01,000 Speaker 3: On that's their problem. 48 00:02:01,240 --> 00:02:04,400 Speaker 2: No, because at the root of it is still their behavior, 49 00:02:04,520 --> 00:02:07,639 Speaker 2: which is what's not accessible. Whether it's caught on film 50 00:02:07,720 --> 00:02:10,960 Speaker 2: or not, and it's shared with the public doesn't matter. 51 00:02:11,000 --> 00:02:13,959 Speaker 2: They're still behaving badly. They need to learn to stop 52 00:02:14,040 --> 00:02:14,600 Speaker 2: being more on. 53 00:02:16,040 --> 00:02:19,240 Speaker 1: Got to learn stop being more on. Well, when will 54 00:02:19,280 --> 00:02:21,440 Speaker 1: they learn? We've had this conversation many times.
