Great Greg Inglis article

[Fade_To_Black]

Inglis is trash,a proven cheat and woman beater. Just as a side note, I am sorta sick of the double standards when it comes to racism, a lot of indigenous people want to help their own people exclusively. Would it be classed as racism if a white player came out and said he wants to help Anglo-Saxon people only? I think it would be without a doubt. Not trying to inflame anything racial etc, but I am interestered in people's thoughts on this.

Inglis should drop the Goanna crap and impersonate a SNAKE !
He's lower than a snakes belly IMO .

Its funny how people spread rubbish about Inglis without knowing the true story. Fortunately for Greg the people that he cares about do. I have absolute respect for this guy. Close to one of the most admirable people I have met.

My thoughts? You are racist scum. Happy you asked?

Bravo Southern.You are 100% correct.

I like to think that our society is built on redemption. It's how our prison system works. People work hard to redeem the wrongs they've done. Nothing can excuse what Inglis did years ago but his years of charity work and support for indigenous communities etc. show that he is a changed man and a good man.

Domestic violence is a form of lateral violence, which generally results from a mix of trauma and socioeconomic hardship.
Many young aboriginal men grow up in such circumstances and are exposed to domestic violence as kids, especially if there's excessive alcohol use in the family.
Not to condone violence against women ever, but rather from a belief in redemption, many young men who engage in such behaviour only need a little support to realise it's not normal and they change.
Inglis seems authentic in his humility and generosity, as does JT.
Aboriginal kids, in particular, look up to them big time and it seems to me they carry that responsibility admirably.
Congrats on a premiership to the Redfern mob. It'll be a big lift to many struggling communities around the country who need it.

did i say i condone what he did? you are comparing a bloody murder to a push ffs.

You were defending him, calling it a ''moment of madness''. The question i ask you is where do you draw the line where a moment of madness is no longer acceptable? Because, clearly you don't seem to think that an open handed push is that big of a deal. And i have to tell you that an open hand push from a guy the size and strength of Inglis would be just as bad as what a regular guy could do with his fists.

It doesn't matter where I draw the line. I come back to my original question: how long will an open handed push hang over his head?

Some people don't believe in the institution of redemption and would rather give someone shit for something all their lives.

First of all you totally ignored my question, i think given what you have said, your answer matters very much. You keep mentioning that it was just an ''open hand push'' and the gf/wife, whatever she is has forgiven him, i don't know why you drive that point home, given with domestic violence a woman will leave and comeback to that man up to 8 or 9 times before she leaves him for good, so her forgiving him for an ''open hand push'' isn't something that is out of the ordinary.

There are certain crimes that you will always carry the stigma of, no matter what you do afterwards. One of those crimes is violence against women. Once you put your hands on a woman, thats it, all respect goes out the window. Its one of the most cowardly acts a man can ever commit.

 

[Flippedy]

you make mistakes in the heat of the moment and inglis made a mistake. his gf has forgiven and forgotten it.

I'm not sure Reeva Steenkamp would share that attitude if she was still with us.

lol "an open hand push"

"shot two bullets"

😕 i dont see any difference…

Oh but weren't you talking about the ''heat of the moment''? I didn't know you condoned some forms of violence and not others. You sound like one of those guys on those ads who say ''I only pushed her a couple times, that doesn't make me a violent person''.

Violence is violence, don't try and defend it.

Pistorious, Inglis, Lui, Bird - in the end they are all free men, still glorified and allowed to pursue their dreams, while their victims are either dead or emotionally scarred for life. It really doesn't matter what we all think, it's the justice system that's f..ked.

that's your line and bravo to you.

there are no right or wrong answers to ethical

it's been 5 years.. you can hold it against him as much as you want- but that's just gonna mean you'll be oblivious to all the other stuff he does off field.

a little off topic but i love this stereotype that you hit a man you're considered a man, but you push a girl and you're the biggest pussy in the world. im sure he regrets it, the girl probably regrets a lot of stuff that might've been said during the conversation- they've all moved on but the great ethical crusade wants to compare a bloody push to murders.

 

[GNR4LIFE]

that's your line and bravo to you.

I'm sure it echo's a lot of peoples thoughts about violence towards women.

there are no right or wrong answers to ethical

Wtf does that mean

it's been 5 years.. you can hold it against him as much as you want- but that's just gonna mean you'll be oblivious to all the other stuff he does off field.

Again, where do you draw the line where its okay to forgive someone for their ''moment of madness'' and not others?

a little off topic but i love this stereotype that you hit a man you're considered a man, but you push a girl and you're the biggest pussy in the world.

Are you trying to say these two are one in the same? That taking a swing at a guy whose 120kg's is no different to pushing around a girl whose 60kg's?

im sure he regrets it, the girl probably regrets a lot of stuff that might've been said during the conversation- **they've all moved on but the great ethical crusade wants to compare a bloody push to murders**.

I was using the murder as an example to ask you where you draw the line with ''moments of madness''. You seem to accept pushing a girl around was an acceptable thing to defend, i was just testing the waters. And as i've said previously, just because they've moved on means jack. The majority of women who get abused go back to their partners multiple times before leaving for good.

I'd be interested to see what you'd think of a guy who put his hands on your sister, daughter or mother, regardless if she forgave him or not.

Inglis's missus can count her lucky stars that souffs got up last night .. She may well have received a backhander if souffs had lost .

why do you care about where i draw the line? this isnt about you or i- it's about a guy who made a mistake, got punished for it and is now doing good for the community.

you can keep shouting from the rooftops about this but it doesnt change the fact that he's made a bigger difference to the society than you, i or anyone else on here.

let's end this debate right there because as i said, there is no right or wrong answers when it comes to ethics. different people have different ethics- everyone's born in different cultures, different environments. what's unacceptable for you might be acceptable for another person. that's why we have the law and according to the law, he's served his punishment. /discussion.

I hope that you'll never experience domestic violence against a female friend or family member , cause if you do you'll then understand !

How the hell would you know what anyone else does on here. I've made a living for the past 9 yrs working with disabled children for starters, so don't even try that ''he's made a bigger difference to society than you'' crap.

 

[tig_prmz]

Good on you.

You're getting paid to do it (not that there is anything wrong with that) whereas he's doing all of this from his own pocket. Doesn't change the fact that he's making a massive difference to the community.
