Merritt questions rep snub

SOUTH Sydney winger Nathan Merritt caused a storm yesterday by raising the possibility his controversial omission from the City team was because he is Aboriginal.
Big call from Merritt, but surely not the real reason and the best available team was picked based on form. Unfortunately for Merritt that team did not include him.

Yep, convenient excuse reeled out all too often. Could it be he just was not good enough this time.

Bullshit...he hit the nail right on the head and then these johhny-come lately Aborigines like Laurie Daley etc deny there is racsim. Where was this member of the wannabe tribe when he was actually playing this shit game and identifying as an Aboriginal?

This has been around in the Indigenous community for to many years not to take it seriously. Come on too many great NSW players miss NSW team only to be picked for the Kangaroos look at Blacklock grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

Let the blackfellas stick it up the NRL and go play AFL. See how long the pissy NRL will survive with no Indigenous players...but then at the same time they are wasting their money on over-rated Islanders whose comprehension of putting a sentence together includes the words choice and cool bananas!

What we need to do is a letter campaigne between the two states try getting the Koori mail and NIT involved to encourage our mob to write them.

Imagine a few thousand letters going to NSWRL and I have David Gallops actual email address :)
