It seems in Goodes's case that his reaction relates back to childhood bullying, so I'm not going to criticism him too much if he just snapped & saw red.

It is interesting though to contrast that with the weekly abuse copped by St Kilda player Steven Milne (aka Tip Rat), which I have witnessed first hand more than once - some skins are thicker than others i guess

A 13 year old child says something inappropriate and those wonderful moralistic group called the media, esp the footy media, incite hatred against her. I recall being lectured by Rex Hunt for years and years on the radio on how to lead a good life ..... until he got caught in a compromising situation, then there's Eddie who loves to tell people how to behave until he gets caught. I don't like being lectured by hypocrites. This 13 year old girl would have a higher moral standard than most of the media put together.

As far as Adam Goodes goes, well we're not all going to be on the same page all of the time but it doesn't make some of us bad people.
