    I didn't even know what the reference was but apparently it's a Korean reality TV survivor type series.

    So...if Teddy overheard the complainant referencing an Aussie show mentioning its title...say "Survivor"...should he be offended?

    Crazy people only would find offence either way one would think.
    Its the most popular show on Netflix ever!! Its great. I highly recommend it.

      Let's not go down the track of personalising it. Remember old donut boy?

      If she's a mischievous Souffs fans then she doesn't deserve the pleasure of hatemail...etc.

        So she originally laughed it off before one of her PC friends/sister convinced her to get her 15 minutes of fame. Unfortunately for her with her name out there she will get trolled by the sickos out there.
        I also don't see Teddy as someone who would say "don't you know who I am".

Squid games is a fictional show where people who are in very bad debt risk their lives in order to win a bunch of money to get outta debt. In the show if the players lose the challenge, they die. Ones reality TV while the other is like a fictional horror series.

          Not to come off as an SJW or anything but you've kinda misunderstood the premise of the show. As for the situation, if it turns out that these events were true then I would be significantly disappointed in Tedesco especially as the club captain and being named captain of the year this year. But nothing is confirmed as yet so I'll wait to the investigation is conducted.
          Uh...kinda yeah sorry man. Fiction and reality TV are kinda uh the same I believe.

          You sound like a victim of your generation. Can't blame you.

          Don't stress yourself about confirmations and investigations about stuff that don't matter.

          Maybe focus on your Easts teams for the next decade or so.

                I'll preface this by clarifying I am Asian and Vietnamese. If Teddy did say what he said towards that lady, it could be interpreted as being racist and he should know better.

                The comments suggesting that he has nothing to be accountable for and he will never be able to open his mouth in public again are rubbish - and clearly miss the point.

                That said, this is not a huge deal. You'd just expect your club captain to be better.

                  Damn, I didn't mean to come off as mean, why do you have to insult me for no reason at the end? You have some balls to attack a random teen on the net for just explaining the plot of a show?

                    1. Inside jokes with your significant other are different from yelling them at some random who has no context/buy-in to your little world.

                    2. I make no excuse for defending my family.

                      Obviously the post and the photo of the person supposedly being a Souths fan is a joke...

                          I would find it surprising if footballers who have been drinking were immediately able to identify a Korean from any other Asian race (though maybe it was all about him being excited to be able to do it after watching Squid Game......or....he saw someone he thought looked like someone from Squid Game. I used to get kids running up to me yelling 'Professor Snape!!!!") Anyhows, I'll leave it to the investigation.

                            WWII is a very sad topic for many Japanese. They don't really learn what happened growing up and it is hard for them to take. That is a topic best avoided in polite conversation.

                              So the Japanese lady beat you and put you out on the street? Dude even your Japanese stories are lame compared to mine. You have stories about getting drunk with an ojisan whereas I have stories of tripping on mushrooms and having foursomes with Japanese hookers.

                                Sorry Rooster Boi for the smackdown. I thought you were being a smart ass maybe misinterpreted.

                                Have liked your previous contributions, keep up the good work.
