Was it mentioned that the 5 indigenous players didn't sing the national anthem

Esan Marsters was unavailable for Kiwis selection after having post-season ankle “cleanout” surgery. Dealt with ongoing ankle injury since April, required injections to play at times. Would hope surgery + rehab will allow for improved 2020 performance, usually a quick recovery

No it wasn't - but I'm get bloody sick of it to tell you the truth.

If you don't sing, you don't play again I reckon.

Yep. They are bloody kids who are good at passing a ball. That’s it. Cut the activist crap or don’t take the money on offer.
Now here’s a thought - if you are so bloody passionate about aboriginal rights etc, offer to donate you income from the game to research into indigenous affairs. Not bloody likely I’d reckon!

Johnson was so bad i am expecting him to sign for us on a 1million plus deal for 5 years

@happy_tiger
I suppose that none of them are smart enough to see the hypocrisy of representing a nation, wearing its colours, but then not singing its anthem. Childish and pretentious.

Exactly!!
If you're that against the country and feel the national anthem doesn't represent you

Decline the offer to wear the Jersey and represent the country.

I'm as patriotic as the next bloke, but I can't agree with you on this. We still live in a free country. Whether or not we agree with their position, they have a right to express it.
