It's not Rugby ..... it's Rugby League.

Not that a woke Sth Australian wanker like you would know.

Furthermore the whole event is aptly named ... Koori "Knockout".

because there's already investigation by the NRL into a brawl in which Canterbury Banktown & ARL winger Josh Addo-Carr was allegedly "knocked out".

Every year something similar happens.

As you so often say dickhead ....WOFTAFM.

You racist, you! Dissing multicultural people! How dare you? You are not Pearson!!

‘I say to multicultural communities in the campaign that I am involved [with] around the country. I say to them, “Listen, where do you fit into Australia? It’s a bit unclear. Are you with the mob from the UK? Are you kind of honorary settlers? Because some of you are the wrong colour. Or you don’t come from Northern Europe. You come from Africa, you come from Asia, you come from South America – you come from all over the joint. You come from China. I say to them, where do you fit in Australia?”’

You judge me the wrong colour, ethnicity...er...race, Bbwian??? Is that possible??
I had African ancestors about 100,000 years ago. I am a member of the longest surviving human civilisations.
No good?

Cruel, cruel, racist Bbwian! So hurtful! Cry

Yeah - professional players are held to a higher standard... and 'rushing in' is apparently worse than the first foul blow...

I think the first foul blow should be punished more... ten minutes at least depending on how foul.
