Nope you'll need your interpreter again. If you recall I noted in an earlier post that I'm going off confessions of taxi drivers, AFL footy going friends, the mammoth listing of incidents in the wikipedia link i provided and my personal experiences and research.

I'm listing incidents that disturb me Xman. Three racism incidents I've listed to your one thus far. And an entire crowd cutting loose on a mexican wave while a player is stretchered off would be frowned upon worldwide. Not a "minor incident" if you ask me...and the world but to our two doosies TLPG and Xman it's not a bad thing at all it seems.

You pair have fast become the laughing stock of the site. Congratulations! Maybe I'm wrong though, you have prob been the laughing stock of the site for years now.

Thanks for the laughs.

The worst form of crowd behaviour is racism. The Mexican wave is nothing compared to that. You are trying to play up the Wave to hide or downplay the racism as an issue.

More evidence of racism from KE I'd say! Shocking behaviour right there!

You dumb gosling. I've challenged Xman to find as many counts of racism in nrl crowds as i have in AFL.

He doesn't need to. It was clear that a large percentage of the SOO crowd were racists. You need multiple AFL incidents to match those numbers and you are yet to achieve it. Instead - you should be slagging on the SOO incident as the worst incident of racism in the history of thugby crowds and stop trying to bring the AFL down. You should be slagging on the authorities in thugby for not doing enough as a result of that incident.

The fact that you refuse to shows that you support their actions. I'll leave that for others to decide what that makes you look like.

Start supporting the AFL's efforts at eliminating racism.

Twitter incident? Hmmm best i can do is give ya a half a point there Xman and that's being generous. We are talking about 'crowd behaviour' here. Not social media behaviour. You sure are struggling to find anything at all arent you Would you mind if I look up more racist crowd incidents in the AFL and go even further ahead of you on this one?

I'm a true gentleman

I'm disappointed you think its not as serious as the mexican wave Xman. As earlier i clearly indicated it was worse.

So back to the topic of racism in NRL and AFL crowds. I'm glad you're having a go at equalling what i've put up. But you're still on 1.5 incidents and that was with moi being a true gentleman. You really should be on 1 crowd racist incident. I'm happy to admit the NRL one you have cited appears worse than mine but its still only one isolated incident, indicating that thus far it appears that racism in nrl crowds is less prevalent.

Comon Xman catchup before i go find another dozen or so AFL crowd racist disgraces.

You know what that makes you look like TLPG? Do you even care to have any credibility? Shame shame shame.

Oh and btw I have slagged the SOO incident about 6 times already. You nor Xman have slagged any of the AFL racist crowd incidents.

Who's the better man? Me

Who's the more likely to be a racist? You and Xman.

It's like I've got both you lamos pegged to the ground and I'm forcing the pair of you to slap your own faces with your own hand.

Keep trying to squirm free lamos. Keep tryin. :D

I'll get back to my research soon and see how many more incidents i can find on AFL crowd racism.

It's not the first racial shame for NSW, with Andrew Johns quitting Blues camp in 2010 after taunts made about Inglis were overhead by Timana Tahu.

"It's disappointing to say the least that racism is still rife within Australia and still rife within sport," Williams told The Courier-Mail. "(The kids were) not there to listen to uneducated idiots make racist remarks towards elite sportspeople. It got to the point where I had to leave where I was sitting.

"It was confronting the way they were acting and it was disturbing and offensive."

Williams said the unruly fan who abused the young female Queensland supporter then turned his attention on him once he recognised him as a former player.

"She is a 16-year-old kid, so I stood up and stuck up for her and he ... (was) saying I was a hero because I'd played in the NRL before," he said. "It doesn't matter if you're at the footy or not, you don't speak to women and kids like that."

this looks more significant than 3 or 4 people.
