  • Cry me a river please. Lmfao.
    I thought this was definitely a gee up.
  • He probably went to counselling to help deal with the affects.
  • Omg this is hilarious. They should be booing Pascoe and Go. Both have been utterly pathetic.
    • Hey Muttman, One thing is for certain... The Tiger's have probably now ensured that Aaron Woods gets boo'ed at every game he plays whilst remaining in Tigers colours. I wonder if in their deliberations at how best to deal with this did they consider the "Adams Goodes" debacle where heckling and booing increased enormously every time "officials" from the AFL spoke out against it.

  • You're completely right Patsy. Tell a crowd of fans not to do something.....see what happens
    • Yep saw this on fox. Even Beetroot Rothfield and Kent agreed it's a joke....that's saying something.
  • Phuleese is this serious ? Haha I wanna attend a Tigers game next weekend now just to Boo him now . Hey btw why isn't the media calling it race hate like when that Goodes dickheadd was booed ?
    • Lol, seems fair.
  • Wait till they starting mooning him.

    "During the pre-game team announcement, a small number of fans were mooning Captain Aaron Woods."Wests Tigers find this behaviour incredibly disappointing and are calling on Members and fans to support all players in the team."

  • Pretty much how it works going by the Goodes scenario . If he is booed by anyone not white it should be classed as race hate .

"Sanders defence in the halves is actually better than Hands. NSW Cup stats would back this statement up as well. Hands is actually a poor defender in the halves. He is barely cup quality in cup. Hands is an out and out hooker in my opnion."
