You’d think - with the AFL having been rocked by recent allegations that Hawthorn staff encouraged a player to tell his pregnant partner to get an abortion – a pro-life CEO would be welcome. 😂😂😂
My first question was, how and why he was offered the CEO position in the first place?
Old boy network or secret handshake stuff?
Essendon could have avoided this if the right questions had been asked prior to making him CEO and he is a hypocrite and immoral for siding with his alleged religious beliefs but under his leadership while CEO of NAB, was instrumental in the AFL gay pride rounds.
Surely those in power at Essendon would have known he was criticised by the Banking RC for the fleecing of bank customers for Fees for No Service.
Plus he didn’t stick around at Essendon and fight for his religious beliefs and now, somehow he is the victim.
A sorry mess and I have no sympathy for any of them.
Always thought the game was a bit sus. What with those tight shorts that my wife was so taken with and all. Now this. What a shambles. Convert to rugby union all you poor deluded people. At worst you will see your best players convert to the religion of world saviours.
This is disgusting. How dare AFL, Essendon, and the vile Andrews government support such discrimination. I have actually sent my views to the club and will also be informing the sponsors of my disgust as well. The problem is we all sit back and think someone else will speak up about this stuff and do nothing ourselves. The reason the lefties get so far with their radical ideas is because they shout and scream and inundate clubs and corporations with protest letters, emails etc. It is time the sensible people in Australia started speaking up about this crap.
Are these people absolute hypocrites are just totally stupid. ".... support wholeheartedly the work of the AFL in continuing to stamp out discrimination based on ........ religion"
I don’t support any footy codes sorry they went so woke ages ago … can’t stand the non stop rubbish constantly being shoved down our throats and blatant discrimination against people having religious beliefs
So wrong!!! When will they get the log out of their own eye while making assumptions about the so-called speck in others. He hasn’t even had time to show his bigotry, homophobic, hatred & exclusion & they’re already throwing accusations. Oh! That’s right…he goes to church & one that is pro-life & man/woman marriage, that’s obviously going to effect his running of a football club!!! Here we go again… them throwing someone out to uphold their stance on inclusion!
James Macpherson GOLD right here:

Thorburn needs to take them to court for saying anything about his religion in regard to his job.
Indeed. it is a sad day when someone is cancelled for loving Jesus and being Biblical Christian.
What a sorry mess for all concerned.

Inclusion is a double edged sword.
It’s all inclusive or it’s Discriminatory!
It’s black & white or black or white.
Definitely not non-binary
It’s off or it’s on
There is no middle ground
