How Important is it to be Seen Doing the Right Thing? With Steve Haddan
“Good Manners, Dress Well and do Everything Properly” – Dick Reynolds
We’re all guilty of doing something we shouldn’t have, and in that same vein, we’ve also all watched numerous sporting scandals play out like they’re Oscar Nominated Films. But, in the midst of these controversies, are we at fault for judging? Or is the subject’s poor decision-making to blame? If we’re all trying our best to use good manners and be polite, who is really at fault? While bad behaviour is not a new phenomenon, why is it so pertinent in the current media landscape (and often more talked about than the game itself)?
Join Steve Haddan and Jodie as we discuss how problematic the sporting culture really is and if perhaps we are expecting too much of our young players.
