What say you to the 'spear chucking' dance that the other Aboriginal bloke directed at the crowd?
Quite an aggressive and provocative gesture if you ask me.
No place for it on the sports ground if you ask me. It's bad enough that the All Blacks are allowed to do the haka to the opposing team, but to do a gesture like this at the crowd is beyond the pale imo.
Lots of sports people get booed. There would be some who are doing it because they are racist, there would be many more that are doing it because they simply don't like the bloke.
Either way, it's part of the game and I have been to plenty in Melbourne where the crowd are yelling, screaming, foaming at the mouth etc etc - at the umpires, at the players, at the coach, you name it.
If a white player is booed, is he entitled to feel he is being discriminated against because he is white?
I don't think so. Goodes et al need to snap out of it imo and go on with playing football. So do all the armchair experts imo.
