Why were there a fake horn and 'viking clap' noises over our PA system last night?

[King Salvo]

Is having a viking as a mascot politically correct nowdays as after all they were raiders pillagers and mass murderer's.

Canterbury Crusaders were under pressure to change their name - kept the name but changed the logo from Knight with a sword to that of a Maori motif

Yeah I saw that ...but a few of our supporters were no better.
I travelled from the Lower Blue Mountains last night with my Wife and daughters aged 14 & 4. Yes it was a miserable night weather wise but fark me what a pathetic turn out for the defending Premiers first legit home game of the year.

We're in a pandemic...the Super Strain from Victoria has arrived...virtually 'dripping' off the infected....
spreading everywhere....people are afraid of dying or having amputations...afraid of getting blood clots and having lifelong disabilities...as Covid-19 shuts down their organs.

Surprising there were that many supporters there.

Some people still don't get it BB. We've lost 4 family and friends since May. Don't waste your time and energy arguing. Stay safe

Well said mate.

Free speech now has a heavy price. Feels like 1984.

A lot of so called free speech comes from a place of hatred and ignorance...please refer to my below autosig.

for me 'politically correct' has lost meaning. depends what you mean by it. if it can mean wearing a face mask then that will do me.

I agree. People who still want to live in the dark ages, be stubborn, ignorant and narrow minded blame political correctness when they are called out for bad behaviour. It has nothing to do with politics. It's called being evolved, informed, moving with the times and open to new ideas and a fresh way of thinking. Trent Robinson is a brilliant example of a forward thinking leader.

something to think about as the Washington redskins in nfl are changing their name and I suggest pressure will put on the Cleveland Indians and the Atlanta Braves in the MLB(Baseball) to change their names too. Minnesota Vikings and Kansas City Chiefs in the NFL are also under pressure to change their name.

Oh, I hope so. If we can just change the names of sports teams and get rid of those offensive comedy programs, I can't see any more racial problems existing.

The world has gone mad. The place is just screwed and the Internet is to blame.

call it as you see it.

Go the Roosters.

that is all.

It's called working towards a better tomorrow. A lot of those so called comedy shows may have been funny back in the 1970's but we live in different times and thank goodness for that. Any enlightened intelligent person would embrace change, not rail against it.
