I'd vote for a life ban for racial vilification on a website that is about the Dragons and the values that the club represents

I'd vote for the life ban for people who can't tell the difference between outrage over dead kids and racism, but this isn't a democracy.

Can someone tell me what values the club represents?

What is the stance of the St george Illawarra RLFC on Israel?

We can't even get their stance on the eradication of the club's history.

To put a fine point on mate you’re putting too fine a point on it to be considered general outrage. You present a unilateral view of a single issue in an inappropriate forum. The conflict in Palestine is a vexed issue that I discuss with my wife almost daily. It is however one of hundreds if not thousands of injustices of similar or greater scale throughout the world that also relate to women and children. You also generalise.
Before you ascribe a category to my opinions and stick me in a pigeon hole; I have no beliefs and am a first fleet descendent of mixed Celtic origins. I abhor wars of any kind and especially over religion. I would lay down my life for my kids and if it came to it, for yours too.
This forum is for sharing BS about our team let’s do our best to keep it that way

The club has no stated view on anything but rugby league and sportsmanship. The one caveat of late would be the status of women as NRL players have strayed in recent times and a the need to define a position has been necessary

All good mate, I understand your Point of View. I was just being a pissy, grumpy fart.

I have no issue with a particular race, it is the fact that one government can get away with 50 years of war crimes and still be a member of the UN. I have no cultural ties to the issue, I'm a cracker too.

Next time, I'll go to 4 corners sub forum to vent my spleen.

you guys are freakin crazy!

you guys are freakin crazy!

And!?

Seriously, you can be outraged at so much in life and we often are. The average IQ is c. 107 and our race is closer to simian than we'd care to admit. Superstition and injustice are, by and large, prerequisites for most of the world's governments.
But a sh*tty refereeing decision that costs us the game or some Rorter cleaning up Creaghzy without the ball really sets the heart racing.
Long live the purity and sanity of rugby league and the Dragons
