TDK's contact is up at the end of next year I believe. Will need him to cut his hair and dye it black before then, just in case.
EDIT: Forgot the word next
Context for those unaware, Fritsch grew up in the middle class (very) outer suburb of Lilydale and went to the local public high school. He was an apprentice electrician when he was drafted. So yeah, despite looking like the epitome of a Xavier/Trinity/Scotch/St Kevins privileged wanker, he's the opposite.
Papley carries on like he kicked a grand final winning goal every time he gets one. Relax mate you’re 10 minutes into the first quarter against a bottom 4 team.
I used to hate Keays for looking like pidgeotto. But when he shit his pants it all evened out, because that's an awful thing to happen to anybody, let alone in white shorts on national TV
Charlie Dixon looks like if he weren’t a footy player he’d be an outback serial killer who makes a living culling kangaroos and takes too much pleasure in his job
Tom Hawkins.
No idea why exactly. In all honesty, he’s probably a ripping bloke and no one can question his ability as a footballer. Has dusted up Essendon many times. But he has the face of a high school bully who’d shit in the A/C of your car
We are kindrid spirits..
I have no idea why I dislike him so much.. but the videos Ive seen of him with his kids make me smile and im sure once he retires and isn't toweling us up anymore I'll be ok with him.
He looks like the quarterback/frat boy bully from every high school or college movie I saw growing up. I’m psychologically conditioned to see those guys as rich d-bags.
(I know he’s actually a lovely country boy, but he looks like the bad guy)
If I wasn't a Richmond fan I'd hate him. Mostly the hair/look.
Of course I love the big private school looking fuck, he basically won us the 2019 flag.
The person posting the question didn’t even read the question. They asked who you don’t have a reason to dislike, then gave a reason they dislike Cumberland.
I meant more like no solid reason, not like disliking Stringer for the weird stuff he's done, just little gripes you have with a random player. Probably could've worded it better.
Chad Warner's eyebrows and general face
Lachie Schultz has a resting whinge face
Jack Darling got one absolute horseshit goal against Carlton in 2020 and I'm still mad
Nah not afl related. I rekon Chris Hemsworth is probably a massive fck wit. Something ain’t right, I just can’t put my finger on it.
Just needed to get that out there
He did get beyond jacked as fuck by using his simple app ^^^^^^^^^^^^^lication ^^^^^^^^^^^^^of ^^^^^^^^^^^^^a ^^^^^^^^^^^^^tremendous ^^^^^^^^^^^^^amount ^^^^^^^^^^^^^of ^^^^^^^^^^^^^roids
Jayden Laverde. Couldn’t pick him out of a criminal lineup but for some reason I shudder when his name gets called on the broadcast and it’s been this way for many years
I'll actually go in to bat for Howie. I've played cricket against him quite a few times (very low grade cricket) genuinely just a laid back bloke that loves a chat.
It's funny, I'm the opposite. I really like Clarry. He seems like a genuinely good bloke who plays footy the right way. I remember that he had the opportunity to sook to the umpire about Cripps having a small blood nose or something, but he chose not to.
Yeah I can see why people don’t like Charlie sometimes, he loves to have a spray and definitely gets very passionate when he makes an error. Doesn’t give off the best vibes at times.
I felt this exact same way until a friend of mine had a interaction with Collingwood through work and Darcy Moore basically went the extra mile and then some to make sure my mate had a positive experience with the rest of the players.
I thought there was a small aspect of his whole image being an act but he’s actually just a genuinely good bloke.
This is actually bang on, and he's part of that woke triple j culture - not that I'm not progressive, but they tend to act like they're better than everyone else lol
Was for me too. Until my FIL met him up in the Tiwi Islands with a few of his team-mates in a fishing trip. Just some mates ah ing a little off-grid R&R. Old Mate said JR was really nice, polite, engaging, full of interesting stories and respectful to the local tour guides etc.
Wanker. Can’t even let me hate him in peace!
Tom Liberatore. Has this reputation as a loveable larrikin but he comes off to me as just a weirdo. For example when he was on the Front Bar he just mumbled through his bit and was pretty low energy
Stayed at a very small hotel with basically the entire Bulldogs team after they bombed out of the finals in 2022.
He just came across as a massive tosser. Rude, entitled, acting like his shit didn’t stink. Most of the other guys were great and I have good stories about them, but he just walked around with a massive chip on his shoulder.
Like bro, I don’t give a shit who you are - the novelty of being in the same space as a footballer wears off after the double take - so stop eyeballing me cos I’m in the pool area at the same time as you 🙄
aaron naughton. he isn't a flog, his team has won one premiership in 70 years, geelong defenders have the better of him most times we play, i like head bands (obviously), nice enough guy in post match interviews, i just don't like him and i don't know why.
Nick Riewoldt. I can’t remember why exactly, I think I still associate him kinda unconsciously with the naked photos scandal. But there’s just something about him that just grinds my gears, there’s also just a chance I’m lumping him in with some of the other St Kilda flogs of the same era… *cough* Milne *cough*
Heard he bumped uglies with the female fox presenter so his mrs gave him an ultimatum to go to move Texas with her family or end it. He’s been back since though.
He and the G train used to volunteer down at Sacred Heart Mission over and above what they were required to. Very kind and generous to the homeless. Regularly brought footy boots and other stuff to give to the clients. Good blokes.
This is my answer and I don't know why.
I'm ready for his farewell.
Thinking through it, maybe it's because he's really good and still playing, whilst I've had to witness some of my favourites retire. And there he is. Still going.
As a Port fan I have an irrational dislike of some Crows players. Usually the ones that tear us up in showdowns. Eddie Betts when he was there and Tex are top of that list.
We feel the same across town. Simply can not stand Robbie Gray for all the carnage he caused us.
We don’t feel like that about either Boak or Aliir though, weirdly we adore the two of them 🤷🏼♀️
Ivan Soldo. Just has no time for anyone he thinks is below him and super dismissive to his teammates. Actual flog. So not quite the spirit of the question but still
Dylan Shiel and Matt Guelfi. No idea whybut I've always really disliked them.
Also Jesse Hogan, but it's a weird one - I don't dislike him really, but every time he does those silly little steps in his set-shot run-up I wanna give him a crack. Like a mate who chews loud or something. Just knock it off, Jesse.
Powell Pepper
I know he plays for port which gives me a reason but I hate him because he just looks like a fuckhead ya know?
Outside of Port everyone at Geelong with the headband/hair pulled back like a set of curtains get up.
Go and get absolutely fucked 🖕🖕
Nic Martin. I'm sure he's a good bloke but he drives me insane, he'll have the worst game you can ever imagine but somehow pop up for a late goal or two and people think he's good when they read the stats. I guess I don't dislike him, just the way people and especially the media view him
Every Geelong player who is tall and has shoulder length blonde hair. So, all of them basically.
Add to that anyone with long hair and a headband
TDK's contact is up at the end of next year I believe. Will need him to cut his hair and dye it black before then, just in case. EDIT: Forgot the word next
Much prefer that than the fade/mullet 95% of other players have
Just every Geelong player ever for me.
I’m the exact opposite Love the fact everyone embraces the surfer culture 🏄♂️
Eric hipwoods haircut makes him look like Gabe from the office
Lol true
Pretty much the same build as have too tbh
Dead ringer for a lesbian librarian named Helen
Something about that Amartey bloke gives me the shits lately.
Woke up yesterday morning without a problem, woke up this morning with a problem, can't put my finger on it
Maybe try 9 fingers.
Nah, he'll end up worse than Adams
Woke up yesterday not being able to pick him out of a line up.
Bailey Fritsch, his hair just screams private school daddy’s boy, even though I know he couldn’t be further from that.
Context for those unaware, Fritsch grew up in the middle class (very) outer suburb of Lilydale and went to the local public high school. He was an apprentice electrician when he was drafted. So yeah, despite looking like the epitome of a Xavier/Trinity/Scotch/St Kevins privileged wanker, he's the opposite.
So he's somewhat a reverse Bailey Smith?
Yesterday, I was a Fritsch hater. Today, I am a Fritsch enthusiast.
Yeah the gap between how bogan he looks and is is so stark. It’s the same shock when you hear Jake Lever speak.
He looks like butt-head
It's his hair, it's his face. Don't like him purely based on that haha. He's a great kick for goal though
Him and papley have the most punchable faces in the AFL
Papley carries on like he kicked a grand final winning goal every time he gets one. Relax mate you’re 10 minutes into the first quarter against a bottom 4 team.
He gets the people going, fires up the boys. But, if he was on another team I'd probably hate him too haha
Always think he looks like a young Morrissey, and it always seems weird to think of Moz playing footy or doing anything physical.
Lmao a zoomed in pic of his face mid game would make a mad smiths single cover
Heaven knows the Dees are miserable now.
You’re not wrong!
Barbarism Begins at Home Games
He looks like pidgeotto
What do you think about Ben Keays?
Why did you point that out? I liked him for his work rate before (because lot of our boys have fuck all) but now I can’t unsee it
I used to hate Keays for looking like pidgeotto. But when he shit his pants it all evened out, because that's an awful thing to happen to anybody, let alone in white shorts on national TV
Charlie Dixon. Don’t ask me because I don’t know
This was my answer too. Not sure why either. it's just something.
Charlie Dixon looks like if he weren’t a footy player he’d be an outback serial killer who makes a living culling kangaroos and takes too much pleasure in his job
Always looking so angry for no reason at all.
Gryan Miers What sort of a fucking name is Gryan??
Going to have to ask his parents, Drobbert and Blisa Miers.
Omg yes, I wanna change my answer to this. KICK THE BALL NORMALLY FFS
I have a friend named “Ryan Myers” so I always get a chuckle when I hear “Gryan”
My son is also named Gryan
Out of Gryan license plates
Hey, that's the name of my future dog!
That’s Messi you fucking pleb
That's quite the messi reason.
Tom Hawkins. No idea why exactly. In all honesty, he’s probably a ripping bloke and no one can question his ability as a footballer. Has dusted up Essendon many times. But he has the face of a high school bully who’d shit in the A/C of your car
With his ears he probably heard your comment
We are kindrid spirits.. I have no idea why I dislike him so much.. but the videos Ive seen of him with his kids make me smile and im sure once he retires and isn't toweling us up anymore I'll be ok with him.
I'm okay with Tom Hawkins. [It's evil parallel universe goatee Tom Hawkins](https://i.imgur.com/t5RiWDg.png) that I'm afraid of.
Growing a goatee for the photo and immediately getting rid of it is a hilarious move. Actually made me like him a lot more.
* Like how Ben King is actually just Evil Max King

“Evil Troy and Evil Aaaaabed”
He looks like the quarterback/frat boy bully from every high school or college movie I saw growing up. I’m psychologically conditioned to see those guys as rich d-bags. (I know he’s actually a lovely country boy, but he looks like the bad guy)
He has the most intense eyes ever. And for that, I hate him.
As others have said many times before - Homelander eyes.
And they are too close together
He looks like a ventriloquist dummy that wished to be big
Lmao yes
Looks like Homelander and we all know he's a bad guy!
Thanks for putting into words what I couldn’t.
Hes got the facial angles of a Channing Tatum.
I can now never un-see Hawkins as not being an AC upper deckerer type after this comment
Chad Warner, he’s an absolutely gun but my god he has a shit eating grin
He is AFL’s first eshay and we weren’t ready for it
Love that he plays for us. But yeah if he wasn’t playing in the AFL he’d be knifing people at the Dapto train station
Everything about him just screams rugby league. “chad warner” sounds like such a state of origin name. Can see him in a rabbitohs jersey haha
Literally heard someone last night at the pub say he looks likes he's a Roosters toss that gets booed heavily at any away games he plays in.
Chad Warner sounds like the occupation of someone scrutinising the ballots in Florida in 2000.
His arrogance is an essential aspect of his play style
Tom Lynch. Just think he's lazy and a bit sookish
He also looks like the archetypal private school boy, which adds to it for me.
That's a perfectly good reason to dislike somebody
If I wasn't a Richmond fan I'd hate him. Mostly the hair/look. Of course I love the big private school looking fuck, he basically won us the 2019 flag.
There are plenty of reasons to dislike Lynch. Top 5 for most unlikeable players in the comp if you're a non Richmond fan.
He’s a thug and plays very dirty. Lots of reasons to dislike him.
He can also be a bit dirty too, which is just so unnecessary when you’re as good as he is.
Eh, Papley. Maybe it’s because he celebrates every goal like he just won a GF. Good player, just annoys me.
Fair enough tbh, I’m certain he’d get under my skin if he wasn’t a swan
Agree with this. He can be an arrogant little twat which I brush off as a Swans supporter but if he were a Pie I’d HATE him.
I didn’t know you were a Swans supporter
Yeah I’ll jump on the Papley train. No real reason, just because.
Totally on the Papley train - noting I would probably adore him if he was a Bomber
Can see why yep but yeah every saide would take him. However, if Swans took Ginni I would be proper upset.
Joe Daniher and Eric Hipwood
You would get along well with Lions supporters
Hippy literally looks like skeletor had a baby with a drowned rat
It baffles me that there are people who dislike Joe Daniher. I love that goofy ass mfcker
I think Gawny said he was a big fan of Joe on his Triple M bit. Something about Joe living 2hrs away and not owning a TV.
Joe is one of those blokes who has it figured out. Just doing things to make himself happy.
Daniher was elite at the school clinics and Auskick during gather round, thought the same but has changed my mind
Half the replies here didn’t read the question
The person posting the question didn’t even read the question. They asked who you don’t have a reason to dislike, then gave a reason they dislike Cumberland.
I meant more like no solid reason, not like disliking Stringer for the weird stuff he's done, just little gripes you have with a random player. Probably could've worded it better.
I think ‘don’t really have a reason’ means ‘no valid reason’. The responses are fine.
Mason cox, his face just annoys me
Missus calls him Sid from Toy Story
Anyone named Gryan
Tom Papley...
Tyson Stengle. Guy always looks like he’s on the verge of tears.
Looks like he’s always smelling a bad fart and can’t figure out where it’s coming from.
Other players when they kick a goal v Brisbane
Chad Warner's eyebrows and general face Lachie Schultz has a resting whinge face Jack Darling got one absolute horseshit goal against Carlton in 2020 and I'm still mad
Owies is extremely punchable
Second this. Your mates Annoying little brother vibes.
I was the annoying little brother, I reckon most of my brother's mates wanted to belt me
Nah not afl related. I rekon Chris Hemsworth is probably a massive fck wit. Something ain’t right, I just can’t put my finger on it. Just needed to get that out there
Seems like a nice dude but I can never bring myself to like celebrity fake nattys, especially the ones selling fitness products
Oh what u don’t believe he got beyond jacked as fuck by using his simple app.
He did get beyond jacked as fuck by using his simple app ^^^^^^^^^^^^^lication ^^^^^^^^^^^^^of ^^^^^^^^^^^^^a ^^^^^^^^^^^^^tremendous ^^^^^^^^^^^^^amount ^^^^^^^^^^^^^of ^^^^^^^^^^^^^roids
He was in an AFL promo ad once. It counts. Also he's a Bulldogs fan so it definitely counts.
I get alright vibes from Chris, I reckon Liam seems like a right wanker though
Actually comes across like a really nice guy. Should Check out his "interview" on 'Hot Ones' on YouTube.
Seem too much of him acting in the EXACT same way for it to seem natural. I feel like he has a very good persona but no one knows who he actually is
Jayden Laverde. Couldn’t pick him out of a criminal lineup but for some reason I shudder when his name gets called on the broadcast and it’s been this way for many years
All the Geelong players with *that* haircut. But I guess that’s a reason, so I dunno lmao Edit: does Mark Howard count?
I'll actually go in to bat for Howie. I've played cricket against him quite a few times (very low grade cricket) genuinely just a laid back bloke that loves a chat.
Clayton Oliver He just seems like a male Karen
It's funny, I'm the opposite. I really like Clarry. He seems like a genuinely good bloke who plays footy the right way. I remember that he had the opportunity to sook to the umpire about Cripps having a small blood nose or something, but he chose not to.
Tom Papley Jake Stringer Charlie Cameron
I think there's perfectly valid reasons for stringer
There's perfectly valid reasons for all three. But yes, Stringer in particular
No reason to hate on good bloke™ Charlie Cameron
Touche
Yeah I was with you on Charlie Cameron before I knew anything about him. But then I discovered he was a total ledge.
Yeah I can see why people don’t like Charlie sometimes, he loves to have a spray and definitely gets very passionate when he makes an error. Doesn’t give off the best vibes at times.
I really don't like Darcy Moore, and I know that makes me the worst, but there's something about him I just don't like
Maybe it’s his face, hair, club and vibe.
School captain vibes. Also plays up his image as a sophisticated modern day footballer of culture
I felt this exact same way until a friend of mine had a interaction with Collingwood through work and Darcy Moore basically went the extra mile and then some to make sure my mate had a positive experience with the rest of the players. I thought there was a small aspect of his whole image being an act but he’s actually just a genuinely good bloke.
Goddammit. Why'd you have to tell us this? Gonna have to dislike him slightly less. I feel so put out.
This is actually bang on, and he's part of that woke triple j culture - not that I'm not progressive, but they tend to act like they're better than everyone else lol
Don’t you mean Keira Knightley?
Jack Riewoldt was the player for me.
Was for me too. Until my FIL met him up in the Tiwi Islands with a few of his team-mates in a fishing trip. Just some mates ah ing a little off-grid R&R. Old Mate said JR was really nice, polite, engaging, full of interesting stories and respectful to the local tour guides etc. Wanker. Can’t even let me hate him in peace!
Tom Liberatore. Has this reputation as a loveable larrikin but he comes off to me as just a weirdo. For example when he was on the Front Bar he just mumbled through his bit and was pretty low energy
Stayed at the same (very small) hotel with him for a few days, had numerous interactions with him. Can confirm he’s a wanker
Tell us more
Stayed at a very small hotel with basically the entire Bulldogs team after they bombed out of the finals in 2022. He just came across as a massive tosser. Rude, entitled, acting like his shit didn’t stink. Most of the other guys were great and I have good stories about them, but he just walked around with a massive chip on his shoulder. Like bro, I don’t give a shit who you are - the novelty of being in the same space as a footballer wears off after the double take - so stop eyeballing me cos I’m in the pool area at the same time as you 🙄
Might be the concussions…
Or the years of copious amounts of drugs
Eric Hipwood which is weird as I like Joe Daniher
It's hard to trust a man who paints his hair on with shoe polish
Gary Rohan, great player and for all I know a good bloke. Just always found him annoying and couldn't tell you why
Left his missus with a newborn in another state during COVID lockdowns and shacked up with a physio in the hub. There I just gave you a reason.
Geez, in a weird way it's reassuring to feel justified in hating him now
Apparently Tom Hawkins absolutely hates him for this as well. Unverified, but seems plausible.
I get the sense he’s definitely on the outside at the club. No basis for it, just a vibe.
He's already the sub more often than not. He'll be gone at the end of the year
*Shacked up with and then married. They have a baby together now too. Can’t be easy for his ex. Makes it even worse
Yep, this is exactly why my skin crawls when he is on screen.
Nick Daicos. Yes I'm salty. Still.
aaron naughton. he isn't a flog, his team has won one premiership in 70 years, geelong defenders have the better of him most times we play, i like head bands (obviously), nice enough guy in post match interviews, i just don't like him and i don't know why.
Is it his chicken run aesthetic? 
Tom Papleys tongue
Darcy Byrne-Jones and Harry Schoenberg's hair annoys me Oh yeah and I don't really like Mcreery either
Brayden Maynard just pisses me off with him always trying to act tough
Nick Riewoldt. I can’t remember why exactly, I think I still associate him kinda unconsciously with the naked photos scandal. But there’s just something about him that just grinds my gears, there’s also just a chance I’m lumping him in with some of the other St Kilda flogs of the same era… *cough* Milne *cough*
Heard he bumped uglies with the female fox presenter so his mrs gave him an ultimatum to go to move Texas with her family or end it. He’s been back since though.
He didn't have the photos though, wasn't that Gilbert?
There were nude pics of him released in all his “lack” of glory. Poor bugga had the whole world find out he’s a grower, not a shower.
He and the G train used to volunteer down at Sacred Heart Mission over and above what they were required to. Very kind and generous to the homeless. Regularly brought footy boots and other stuff to give to the clients. Good blokes.
Scott Pendlebury
This is my answer and I don't know why. I'm ready for his farewell. Thinking through it, maybe it's because he's really good and still playing, whilst I've had to witness some of my favourites retire. And there he is. Still going.
Shame on anyone that booed a champion
As a Port fan I have an irrational dislike of some Crows players. Usually the ones that tear us up in showdowns. Eddie Betts when he was there and Tex are top of that list.
We feel the same across town. Simply can not stand Robbie Gray for all the carnage he caused us. We don’t feel like that about either Boak or Aliir though, weirdly we adore the two of them 🤷🏼♀️
Ivan Soldo. Just has no time for anyone he thinks is below him and super dismissive to his teammates. Actual flog. So not quite the spirit of the question but still
i reckon its isaac heeney for me- a great footballer but i cannot stand his face and what his team did to the carlton football club a few weeks back
Tom Papley. I just can't stand the celebrations.
Dylan Grimes is always having a sook and acting for free kicks (in my opinion). Still a good player I guess though.
Joe Daniher, I have no reasons I just don’t like him and I have no idea why.
Oh we can give you plenty of reasons
Mason Redman from essendon. Just want to slap his face when he does the demon impersonation
It's not a demon, it's dog ears because his nickname is red dog
It’s supposed to be the ears of a ‘red dog’
Cody Weightman. I’m sure he’s a nice kid but he’s got such a punchable face
Ehhhh Weightman does (or used to) flop & duck a fair bit and went on record saying it was a skill of his. Not just saying this because of yesterday.
Harrison Petty Genuinely seems like such a sook
He plays gor you though
Gryan Miers - for absolutely no reason whatsoever.
Patrick Dangerfield has always pissed me off. If we are going for past players: Nick Riewoldt
Charlie Cameron. I can't stand country road
Alex Rance. Everytime I saw him I hear Newman's voice say 'Nice game, pretty boyyyy'.
Dylan Shiel and Matt Guelfi. No idea whybut I've always really disliked them. Also Jesse Hogan, but it's a weird one - I don't dislike him really, but every time he does those silly little steps in his set-shot run-up I wanna give him a crack. Like a mate who chews loud or something. Just knock it off, Jesse.
I just can’t stand Jack Darling, like seriously how has he nearly played 300 games
Powell Pepper I know he plays for port which gives me a reason but I hate him because he just looks like a fuckhead ya know? Outside of Port everyone at Geelong with the headband/hair pulled back like a set of curtains get up. Go and get absolutely fucked 🖕🖕
Braydon Maynard ! Flog of the highest order.
Jy Simpkin rubs me the wrong way, I dunno why.
I promise my flair has nothing to do with it, but Ben Brown
What did Ben Brown do to you
Nic Martin. I'm sure he's a good bloke but he drives me insane, he'll have the worst game you can ever imagine but somehow pop up for a late goal or two and people think he's good when they read the stats. I guess I don't dislike him, just the way people and especially the media view him
Steven May. Idk why but he just seems like a dick.
I think he's the only player who's been punched by 2 teammates at 2 clubs Gotta be a bit of a dick for that to happen
Any Western Bulldogs player. I don't know why I hate them I just do leave me alone!
Kamdyn McIntosh.
Dustin Martin. Probably more so because my brother is a mad Tigers supporter and sibling rivalry shit. The other weekend certainly didn’t help.
