Radio host Tim Watson comes under fire for Adam Goodes comments

told the AFL he didn’t want to be part of the Hall of FameStream selected Fox Footy shows on Kayo Freebies completely free this June including AFL 360, On The Couch, Bounce & more. No Credit Card. No Brainer.on Tuesday, Essendon great Watson said he was “surprised that he had rejected it” and bridges hadn’t been mended.

“We always say time is a great healer, I just thought that the time may have healed all those differences. Clearly, it hasn’t. Watson acknowledged what happened was unacceptable, but came under fire for appearing to suggest he was surprised Goodes hadn’t been able to mend relationships that had been broken by his traumatic saga.Journalist Greg Jericho tweeted: “‘We always say time is a great healer, I just thought that the time may have healed all those differences. Clearly, it hasn’t’.

Replying to Watson’s take, sports commentator and former radio and TV personality Francis Leach tweeted sarcastically: “Just forgive and forget, because, you know, it’s footy! They still don’t get it.”

SENBreakfast just what we need a middle age white Victorian man telling an aboriginal man how to feel. F**k well off Tim Watson istandwithAdam

He can have an opinion

If he doesn't want to be in the hall of fame thats fine, move on, no media story here.

Oh wow! The pale male stale opinion of someone who CLEARLY has never been discriminated or racially vilified is now supposed to be untouchable? Australia still hasn’t learned anything

Please don’t cancel Tim Watson, let him have an opinion... 🙏🙏🙏

Seems as though no journalist wanted their named attached to this crap story haha who was the author

Goodes thinks he is God which he is NOT

Rich white man Tim Watson with big mouth is sad. Who gives a fxck.

Goodes is entitled to take whatever stand he wishes to take. A lot of flogs are going to take this opportunity to call him names but that's their burden to bear. Racism cuts deep and only someone who has been racially abused will understand and respect Goodes' decision.

Adam Goodes is a number one indigenous person thinking that he is hard done by. He egged on supporters and he called it racism. So booing a black verses a white is automatically labelled racism. I’m glad he refused the award.

Woke, woke, woke. Stepping in and further complicating the issue. I hope Goodes finds peace, but he will need to be proactive in doing so. Such a great opportunity for him to stand up and make an even greater impact, which is saying something, after such as great career…

So Tim can't say he doesn't understand how after 5 years the AFL & Adam Goodes haven't settled the issue, without getting hounded. His comments were about the time lapsed & the perceived lack of action on this based on the rejection.

If the AFL knew that Goodes was such an unforgiving sod they would never had made the offer. “Treaty” works both ways.

The woke crowd taking grains of sand out of a whole statement

Tim’s right, harden up and fix the issues

Homeless camp in state forest hosts people finding a place to belongLife's circumstances made this group homeless, but they're finding a family in their bush camp, overstaying their site restrictions as rental prices keep rising. Echoes of the film “Nomadland”. Instead of handouts it's time to determine why these people are homeless. I know for a fact there are many that prefer it to work and responsibility How can Australians let this happen? Our governments must build, maintain and oversee affordable accommodation for people without a roof over their heads. Can people still vote Labor or LNP when this is the outcome?
