I just re-listened to the press conference part when they asked Robbo about the incident.
You can't hear the audio too clearly, but the first journo who raises the issue says at the tail end of his question says "Kevvie is adamant that it happened"
Robbo responds "Kevvie is adamant?" The reporters say no Esra was adamant. Robbo says, "ok so Esra was adamant, not Kevvie"
Robbo then says "ok so he made the complaint, that doesn't mean it's right, it'll go through the appropriate process and channels..."
Lote Turiri's response the next day?
“If a player says he’s been racially vilified on a footy field, it’s happened!!,” Tuqiri tweeted. “You can mask it and say it’s in the heat of the battle, etc etc. But I don’t get how Trent Robinson sits in a post match press conference and accuses Ezra of not being right. “(The ‘doesn’t mean it’s right’ comment) is some sort of gaslighting rubbish I didn’t think would come out of Trent Robinson’s mouth."
So Lote do we not have any sort of process or anything, and all complaints of a racial nature are just deemed as proven?
What if someone else said it? What is the player heard wrong?
They can't play the victim race card fast enough guys like Tuqiri, and Mitchell
