Comments for Beyond Blue must sack Jeff Kennett http://www.gayinwa.com.au Fri, 21 Nov 2008 08:13:01 +0100 FeedCreator 1.7.2 http://www.gayinwa.com.au/index.php?option=com_content"&"task=view"&"id=801"&"Itemid=276#pc_455 As someone who suffers from manic depression, I found this article of yours highly offensive. How dare you try to interfere with the job someone is doing in a completely unrelated area, just because they don't share your views? Whatever Kennett's position on gays in sport or in general, he brings a great deal of support for Beyond Blue and that is NOT within your rights to interfere with. Attack him for his actions in this matter, but it staggers me that you think you have the right to interfere in lives of other people like this. Maybe this "change the world" attitude is going to your head - with power and influence comes a measure of responsibility. So have a good think before you rally the troops, what collateral damage your war will cause.

Points 4 and 5 of their publicly stated AFLPA Purposes read: To ensure a role for the players through the AFLPA in the development of policies, procedures and arrangements to be directed at player safety and welfare issues. To establish a long term program committed to providing ongoing professional support and counseling in a wide range of matters such as personal development, financial, legal, marital, grief, etc. I wonder if I will get a reply?
