Re: Indigenous all-stars team announced

It was a good game to be at last year. The noise was defening. Although i couldn't help but feel a little racist! I mean, every one white was going for the NRL All Stars and everyone black was going for the Indigenous All Stars.

lets hope george shows us what he can do this time !

And not get injured
 
Re: Indigenous all-stars team announced

It was George that put that slightly late bump on Sam Burgess that crumpled him pretty quickly in this years game.  Lol.  It was a good welcome to the nrl for him.
 
Re: Indigenous all-stars team announced

Good work George, congrats on the call up. Hopefully he has a blinder and brings some momentum back with him.

I remember going to a test match and cheering when Slater dropped the ball, I had to explain to people that even in the green and gold Slater is still a grub.
 
Re: Indigenous all-stars team announced

Why don't we cut out the racist stuff and name an "AUSTRALIAN" all star team?Oh,that would be the kangaroos!Don't get any media play announcing an AUSTRALIAN team-has to have some left wing "vibe" to it.
 
Re: Indigenous all-stars team announced

FFS shut up ayjay you whinging sook!

Re: Indigenous all-stars team announced

Settle down guy's all it is a Celebration of Rugby League (that helps a certain part of our community).
Think of it this way where else could you see the current Australian Captain, the current Kiwi Captain and a few Pom's all playing in the same team nowadays with the salary cap

Legend!’ Indigenous All Stars in the 2011 Harvey Norman Rugby League All Stars match, at Skilled Park on the Gold Coast on February 12.

More than 21,000 Rugby League fans took up the challenge of playing selector and now the public has the tough task of choosing just one player from each of the 16 NRL Clubs to join Kangaroos captain Darren Lockyer and New Zealand captain Benji Marshall in the 20-man squad.

amazing how Inglis's racist situation got "forgotten" about, or swept under the carpet!! Quite interesting to see no meetings, programs put in place  ::)
Only white people are racist
 
Hopefully Tony Williams gets our spot, dont want Choc, Kitey or Killer hurt in this meangingless/feel good game

I went to the game with a mate and I was sitting next to a couple of brothers. Everytime gorgeous got the ball I was up cheering him on and everytime Gidley got smashed I was up cheering. They were so confused!!!

I'm actually dusting our first three games if he's playing centres as losses. Surely Will Hopoate, Michael Oldfield or Dean Whare (if fit) would be much better choices? Forwards like:-

01. Brett Stewart
02. Michael Robertson
03. William Hopoate / Dean Whare
04. Jamie Lyon
05. David Williams
06. Keiran Foran
07. Daly Cherry-Evans
08. Jason King
09. Matt Ballin
10. Brent Kite
11. Anthony Watmough
12. Shane Rodney
13. Glenn Stewart

14. Terrence Seu Seu / Liam Foran
15. George Rose
16. Joe Galuvao
17. Tony Williams
