That's devastating. After such a major scalp too.

Ceglar, who copped the same knee injury only minutes earlier, has also been confirmed for an ACL ...

Why parochialism can be bad: we're stuck with Pies vs Suns on telly tonight in Melbourne rather than the Showdown, which I'm sure will be much more entertaining.

This Suns performance is really, really bad. They've had a lousy season, but they're better than this.

I'm glad I've gone out. Can't imagine much worse than trying to watch this game. Looked like nobody was at the ground either. I don't blame them!
Though I wish I could get in front of a telly right now to fully appreciate the All Blacks giving the Wallabies a bit of a flogging.

I suppose Port have to try for their grand final.

I'm at a gig! But I caught a fair chunk of the first half before heading out, when the real damage was done. My boy Beauden Barrett has silenced some of the doubters who didn't think he could perform as well on the world stage as he has in the Super Rugby.

There is video footage of a Port supporter throwing a banana at Eddie Betts after he kicked his 5th. Fucking unbelievable, utter scum.

Perhaps Eddie McGuire, high on some more painkiller, got confused and went to the wrong Magpies game.

Imagine that juxtaposition of Kochie 'condemning' this act whilst having Pauline Hanson over on his show on a fairly regular basis ... wonderful.

Vlad, I just stole that for Twitter. Sorry. Very good.
However, to play devil's advocate.... I am not sure if this was an out-and-out racist thing. To me it kinda looks like she just threw the first thing she could get her hands on, which happened to be a banana. Doesn't excuse it in any way and she should absolutely be banned because it's a completely fucked thing to do - AND it may well have had a racist intent, we don't know - but... |

Cheers. There have been some Facebook posts shared around by other Port supporters saying that this woman and those around her had been particularly abusive (and in a racist matter). And there's also the thing that racism is not always premeditated, and nobody is thick enough to not make the connection between throwing a banana at an Indigenous/black person.

I think there are people that thick, sadly.
Again, not a fucking excuse. And again, there's probably people who know full well of the connection and do it anyway as some sort of political correctness martyr. |

I'm glad this is getting the coverage it deserves.
