Suaalii’s future finally sorted

[The Axe]

It sounds like an attempt at plucking another ‘stolen generation’ of kids out of families and communities to be bestowed the privilege of attending a school they wouldn’t have been able to attend. And also for the fee paying kids, to talk to a native and relay the story of that over a dinner party or business lunch.

Look at Kurtley Beale. He coulda stuck with Souths after emerging from Mt Druitt. Instead, he opted for ‘the education’ at Hunters Hill and travelling the world losing for Australia. At least he’ll have the ol school tie to wear at job interviews.

Interesting angle. I’m sure Crichton has interviews about his experience and the good Scots’ program does. He has established his own charity to make a difference. Point is when I don’t know I seek the knowledge. I’ve also heard good things re Aloys program.

I haven't seen so much excitement and hype over a junior since Latrell. And he fulfilled it. In fact Sualli's highlight reels seem almost a carbon copy of Latrell except he seems better in the air. But can he kick like Lats?

Going off nothing more than gut feel/intuition only, he looks to have a better attitude as well?

what row do your hookers play in Tobin?

When someone says front-rower one automatically thinks of prop. Do you call Jake Friend a "front-rower" by any chance? Apologies to anyone offended, of course.

And the fact Sualli hasn’t got a family trying to leach money off him sets him apart from Latrell as well.

I hope he can kick goals.
We need a goal kicker!

The Polynesian family system requires the young to provide for the the greater family. As with many cultures, there are great differences and expectations of what is considered normal.

Folau who was on a million dollar a year contract was only given $150 per week by his father as part of the distribution to the greater family.

Good and bad in all culture and race .No place for racism or hate .That's a major reason the world can be such a crap place .Not saying you should love everyone but look beyond the colour or accent.

Weird choice to just openly admit you're a garbage human being

I have a very simplistic view of the term racism as a myth. Another human construct used as a means to achieving other ends.

There is only one race....the human race, so we are all 'one' anyway.

Just to clarify Coat, are you saying racism is a myth?

[Bruce Pickett]

I think everyone has a degree of racism in them. The question is will we control it or will we let it control us?

[ChookMaster]

I’ve lost a friend through severe racism and harassment.. it is very much so a real thing and one of the lowest acts a human can do. No place for it in our world

[Salvatori Grubber]

The idea that race will define the character of an individual is clearly rubbish.

An individual’s deeds and actions are what matters, regardless of “race”.

My mother in law is very comfy spouting disparaging commentary on “Africans” and “Indians” and “muslims” but I can guarantee you that when presented with one face-to-face she’s the height of respect and politeness. Racists are full of shit.

[Jacks Fur Coat]

I'm saying the term is, as we are all the same race.

Men (and woman) behaving badly isn't a myth though.
