[InBenjiWeTrust]

Probably something to do with this: https://www.smh.com.au/sport/nrl/rugby-league-is-about-to-have-its-kaepernick-moment-it-s-a-good-thing-20191219-p53ljp.html

Over 50% of the NRL is of Aboriginal or Polynesian descent. The NRL are taking steps forward to representing them, yet our game's (unknowingly racist) fans seem to be taking offence from this.

I'll have to look up who he is. An ex-AFL player? Maybe of aboriginal descent?

 

[Chicken_Faced_Killa]

This is a surprisingly pro active move by the NRL. Not sure exactly what time he would play but shows they are taking matters of race and the stances players make seriously.

Former 49ers QB.

Oh, so that was the forward pass reference.

Drama queen who worked out a way to keep himself in the headlines once his on-field career nosedived quicker than a kamikaze pilot.
Just the sort of Gumby the hopeless clowns at NRL HQ will flush millions of $$$ down the toilet on.
Laughable but hardly surprising if it goes ahead.

What’s his claim to fame? What area will he be advising on?

What area will he be advising on?

He was the dude with Afro who "Bent the Knee during the US Anthem. He is a despised man in America, An adopted "Bi-racial" (WTF is that?) by White parents, he protested over the "treatment of racial minorities in the USA" did I mention that he's a Multi-Millionaire? BTW nearly every dude in the NFL is Black on a minimum wage of a gazillion $. Nearly every Black guy in America would be in the starting 5 for the Sydney Kings and earn a $500K! .As Trump, who is a convicted Rapist and Felon is proving day by day, the only people who want to keep the racial minorities down are the Democrats cos they need their vote, Sorry folks, I know this ought to be in the Politics thread, but Kapernik is Politics! Big mistake V'Landys - woefuul virtue signalling effort if true.

Cool, more complaining.

Where is the source that the NRL have hired this guy - no mention of it in that article nor on the NRL website.

This sort of post is far better suited to a white supremacists forum.
