Xmans blind freddy version of events

I have also never seen an entire AFL supporter group yell racist insults at another teams players, and even hold up racist signs. Yet this behaviour occured this year at the NRL SOO.

Xman's quote of one of the most sensationalist types of media this country has.

QUEENSLAND'S State of Origin heroes were subjected to vicious racist chants by sections of the official NSW supporters' group during Origin II

So the sensationalist media says sections. Xman says entire

Its likely there were a small group of 3 or 4 yobs doing it.

Here's one count, and the suggestion there's much more, of racism in the AFL crowd written in Micky O's book.

We know a pies fan recently blurted racist rubbish and fortunately the pies took action. All the same though its occurring....

Thats two.

We all know of Nicky Winmar's disgust towards racist AFL crowd members.

That's three.

I'll continue when you catchup eh Xman

so youre pleased that instead of an entire NRL supporter group participating in racist acts it was just sections?

Well done NRL fans. Only large sections of you are racist! =D>

As for not trusting the telegraph or courier mail, its amazing how you readily believe their anti AFL propaganda.

How about the SMH then? http://www.smh.com.au/rugby-league/leag ... 20d5a.html

XMAN, can you answer eelswest question, is SOO NRL or not??? Your example is SOO. Answer carely, as all you AFL folk have TRIED very hard to convince us it is not on numerious occassions. Depends on how YOU want to use it in an arguement hey.

Yes that was indeed shocking. But we all know you're exaggerating/lying about claiming it was the entire supporter group. Facts Xman, try stick to them sometime.

On the flip side we have heard of several racist behaviour coming from AFL crowds. It's happened more than I'd care to remember, much more than i've recalled in comparison.

Shall we look up racist crowd events and see who comes up with more Xman?

QUEENSLAND'S State of Origin heroes were subjected to vicious racist chants by sections of the official NSW supporters' group during Origin II, with former NRL halfback Joe Williams revealing the "disgusting" gibes and signs.

Hmm, seems like a supporter group to me. And they got off scott free too.

Yet the AFL crowd racism issues involve individuals which are dealt with promptly and harshly.

Wait so you use a couriermail article as your foundation.......

Daily tele and couriermail are just as bad as each other, if you use these 2 papers as your backup be ready to get burned...

Its called SOO for a reason, the greatest contest and the most hate toward each other there is........we are talking NRL and AFL here buddy.

You keep telling us that SOO is not NRL???? So which is it SOO is NRL or Not..

Please clarify for us almighty Xman...

Still waiting for your reply Xgenius..

wow, such confusion over such a small matter.

Its NRL SOO, not NRL.

Actually Xman, SOO has always been ARL and not NRL. Where it stands now with the new commission is not certain.

Ah again you've blindly overlooked what i said. You said it was ALL = clearly incorrect. Your source the courier said it was SECTIONS likely incorrect I say its prob 3-4 yobbos = likely correct Happy for you to prove me wrong on this if you can Xman Although you've already lost your cred in this one by lying to us all so be careful this time.

And you've still only cited one nrl crowd racism example to my three. I'll keep waiting till you catchup :>::

In the AFL examples it was a handful of morons, KE. At the SOO the numbers were much larger!

On pure numbers of people involved, it's you who has to catch up!

excusing racist NRL fans!

Youre a disgrace!!!!!

And again you fail to read properly. Please cite where I excused such behaviour.... In case you missed it I said it was shocking earlier.

So lets see then. As you only referred to the racist crowd members in the AFL crowds as "a couple of morons", by your own standards you are "excusing racist AFL fans".

So far in your last few posts you've exhibited blatant lies, self contradiction and ignorance. You're hopeless, you seriously need help in this debate Xman, and TLPGs not giving it to ya.

Thats like saying local soccer is the same as world cup just because they are both soccer. One is clearly on another level than the other.

The NRL SOO is the only thing that competes with Home and Away AFL. Home and away NRL just doesnt cut it.

Shame the SOO is only 3 gamnes hey?

Scott slams umpiring, Eagles fans

"Tonight was very different to the rest of the season ... I think it was a little bit embarrassing for the competition tonight."

Angered by their side being behind for much of the match and the free kicks going against them, Eagles fans vented their frustrations from the stands.

And Scott was particularly angry about the abuse dished out when forward Tom Hawkins was concussed and stretchered from the ground during the first quarter, even though a portion of the Eagles crowd did applaud the fallen Cat.

"When a player's concussed, he's on the ground and hasn't moved, and he's being carted off the ground, you shouldn't be swearing and abusing him, abusing the medical staff," declared Scott.

"Would you take a 10-year-old into that environment?

"Standing on the boundary line, it is not an environment for young kids, which is a shame because we need young kids coming to the footy.

"It was disgraceful. It's everywhere, but here's the worst.

"I loved it (the Perth crowd) when I was at Freo," added Scott referring to his time as an assistant at the Dockers before taking over at Geelong in 2010.

"It's fantastic. It's great. The energy here - it's the loudest ground in the competition. It's a great place to play footy.

"But if you're asking my opinion on whether it goes too far, absolutely it does.

"(It's) a great place to let your emotions out the footy, but we need boundaries, and I think society's changing a little bit in that respect."

West Coast coach John Worsfold declined to comment on both of Scott's criticisms.

"We had no warning about any rule changes this week," he said in regards to the deliberate out-of-bounds interpretation.

"I don't know if they (the umpires) were told anything so I can't comment on that. I'd be guessing."

And on the crowd abuse: "It's hard to comment. I wasn't there. I don't really know what was going on."


Again bad crowd behavior.

Who the hell boo's and jeers of a player that is knocked out FFS what a pathetic bunch some of these West coast eagles fans are..

intreresting. I was watching that game and Hawkins was roundly applauded by the eagles as he was stretchered off the ground. A pretty decent effort I would have thought.

Sure, a few bogans might take it too far but yelling at an injured player hardly compares to racial abuse!

isnt crowds yelling racial abuse crowd behaviour?

isnt entire sections of a crowd yelling racial abuse, after similar taunts on twitter, far worse then a single fan who had his life time membership revoked?
