Interesting points in this article, and an angle I’d never thought about before.
The cyclists mentioned in the article ended up losing their name suppression. But the angle taken around the incident was more a gender-focussed one, along with general questions around the overall discipline of the Commonwealth Games team, whether they deserve funding, potshots from and against SPARC etc. But nothing racial was brought up; good point.
However, I think it is trendy to sit on a high-horse regarding union and league players in general these days. I suppose the question is whether this is because of the fact that both are now largely dominated by Maori and PI players, or because of this dominance, they are inevitably going to be part of the bandwagon.
Certainly, being white didn’t help Xavier Rush much; and he didn’t even hit anyone.
