Who admitted they retaliated?

On Ch7 news they said some blokes made a racist remark to him. Not sure where they got that from though?

It is reported on Channel 7 that he just admitted he retaliated after racial slurs.

good on benj. No doubt it was some drugged-up kid walking out of Tank or Establishment thinking he could bignote himself

 

[Danos]

Guaranteed its a case of some drunk hero trying to make a name for himself.

Sounds like it could be the same person that racially abused little Lilly in the Bonds Baby Model Search 2011!

Whatever the case it isn't good news. Hopefully it is as minor as it sounds now and he learns not to be out at that time or too simply walk away.

The poster boy of the NRL, Benji Marshall, claims racist taunts provoked him to punch a man in the face yesterday.
>
Marshall's manager, Martin Tauber, told The Sun-Herald that a group of eight to 10 people baited the Wests Tigers superstar in The Rocks about 3.20am, allegedly calling him a "black c–-" and telling him to "f--- off back to New Zealand".
>
Mr Tauber confirmed that Marshall – pictured centre, left as the star of The Sun-Herald's 2011 Footy Guide – retaliated by punching one of his alleged tormenters in the face at the intersection of Bridge and George Streets. It is another setback days before the start of the NRL season following a run of scandals. In the past week, Todd Carney has been charged with drink-driving while league identities have been arrested over the Bulldogs betting sting.

The NRL selected Marshall – a clean skin – to officially launch the NRL season at Casula during the week. Marshall's mother, Lydia, said he was not intoxicated when they left the Four Seasons Hotel after a fundraising partnership between the Benji Marshall Foundation and the Children's Cancer Institute of Australia. "The boy is not at fault," Tauber said.

Benji claiming it was racial. Hope they breath tested the guy who made the compliant. If Benji and his mate stick with racism, no charge will be laid against Benji and they guy who made the compliant should be named and shamed in the media.
