What would happen if an all-white team was selected to play rugby league? I think there would be screams of 'racism' and 'racist'. How is it that a team can be selected based on the fact a player is an aboriginal?

Quote:

The 2012 Indigenous All Stars team is:
1. Ben Barba (Bulldogs; Goreng Goreng)
2. Jharal Yow Yeh (Broncos; Margany)
3. Greg Inglis (Rabbitohs; Dunghutti)
4. Justin Hodges (Broncos; Indigenous tribes of the Cairns region)
5. Nathan Merritt (Rabbitohs; Wiradjuri)
6. Johnathan Thurston (c) (Cowboys; Gungarri)
7. Chris Sandow (Eels; Bigambul/ Gubbi Gubbi)
8. Tom Learoyd-Lahrs (Raiders; Indigenous tribes of Tweed area)
9. Travis Waddell (Raiders; Torres Strait: Badulaig)
10. George Rose (Sea Eagles; Kamilaroi)
11. Sam Thaiday (Broncos; Torres Strait: Iama (Yam Island)
12. Jamal Idris (Titans; Worimi)
13. Greg Bird (Titans; Kamilaroi)
Interchange:
14. Andrew Fifita (Sharks; Wiradjuri)
15. Cory Paterson (Cowboys; Indigenous tribes of the Blue Mountains region)
16. Matthew Bowen (Cowboys; Binthi and Dhaarrba)
17. Scott Prince (Titans; Kalkadoon)
18. Anthony Mitchell (Roosters; Waka Waka)
19. Joel Thompson (Raiders; Wiradjuri)
20. Nathan Peats (Rabbitohs; Biripi nation)
Coach: Laurie Daley (Wiradjuri)

Indigenous All Stars captain Johnathan Thurston showcased the 2012 jersey that was designed by former player and Indigenous artist Sid Domic for the third year.

The jersey features a turtle shell, representing the people of the Torres Strait Island, boomerangs for the Australian Aboriginal people and a blue circle symbolising the Gold Coast.

The other major change to the jersey this year is the appearance of a Torres Strait Islander traditional “Dhari” head-dress, which Domic incorporated after requests from Torres Strait Islander All Stars fans.

Once again and hot on the heels of the overt display of racism by aboriginals just the other day we have another sad episode of aboriginals celebrating their racism.

What a sad day for Australia.

Racist White supremacist propaganda and lies from the corrupt political and corporate class. Cool

Indigenous Australian's need role models and this is about trying to promote sport as a means to provide that inspiration and support for our most disadvantaged Australian's.....Judging by the comments on this forum I think we need more support for indigenous Australian's as the lack of understanding shown by you people is proof that there is still a long way to go before Aboriginals and Torres Strait Islanders gain equal respect from Conservative white Australian's!!!

It appears that 'penny' is finally starting to drop.

It is the 'whites' in Australia who are being discriminated against. If you are any other colour than white you will get a Govt. handout somewhere along the line.

Unfortunately the people who really did build this country up get told there is nothing in the bucket for you. If you turn up as an illegal on the shores to our north you will be rewarded with a package racing towards $50K a year.

Our pensioners battle on their meagre income whilst interlopers lick the cream off the bowl. If I had an ounce of Aboriginal blood in me, I would be screaming it to the sky because I would be in 'hog heaven' financially for the rest of my life on the handouts available.

Welfare is not provided according to race or skin color and refugees do not get 50K a year as you claim.....When you have to lie to make a point you say nothing worth value.....People are not as stupid as you look mate!!!

The most perfidious way of harming a cause consists of defending it deliberately with faulty arguments.

Stick to the rules of the forum.

He's been banned before for posting gay porn.
He finds people with alzheimers a point of humour.

Quite frankly he is an out and out disgrace and should have been banned a long time ago.

He regularly will insult people's religion, race, background etc.
