A Pinch of Salt

I heard the same thing through the previous regime.

If people in charge think that way it's no surprise we remain in a cycle of mediocrity.

Not just because it's a Stone Age, pathetic way of thinking.

Mainly because it's such a copout and negative way of thinking.

Inbuilt excuse. If people at the top are thinking that how are the players ever going to think like winners?

Thankfully the person who said it wasn't Brad Arthur.

Can we also remove the reference to white people as salt. I'm offended even though I'm olive skinned which makes me like wholemeal.

Man you've gotta get over this obsession. It's beginning to creep me out. I half expect to wake up late one night and see you standing at the foot of my bed soaked in chicken blood and wearing a pink neglige. Just....staring. Not cool.

I pegged you for an idiot, but not a racist...

I'm not a racist and I haven't endorsed anything in this thread.

I just observed that you derailed the thread.

My favorite soccer play is of pepper descent.

Not quite sure how disagreeing with racists derailed the racist thread...but otherwise it sounds like you actually agree with me, so chill out troll man

I received a text msg midway through tonights game from an official of a team that is currently in the top 8 that read: You have to get the right mix of salt and pepper in your team.

Now I know people are going to scream 'racist' and 'sample size' but if you look at the stats from the last 2 games, with the season on the line and under pressure, the missed tackles and error stats highlight a few problems.

Does this person have a point? Is it coincidence? Is it just a Parra choking problem? a leadership issue? Or all of the above?

Don't hide behind this shit grow a pair and name the f**ker.

Mate we had five white guys in our team yesterday, plus Hayne and Norman, who are 50-50. Do you think that's representative of the multicultural country we live in?

Premiership sides from the past decade had this many whiteys:

2013: Roosters (10 whiteys)
2012: Storm (9 whiteys)
2011: Manly (11 whiteys)
2010: St George (14 whiteys)
2008: Manly (15 whiteys)
2006: Brisbane (11 whiteys)
2005: Wests (13 whiteys)
2004: Canterbury (10 whiteys)

Yesterday we had five! The last time we made the finals we had 11 whiteys in the top 17. There needs to be balance, tolerance and inclusiveness. That's the Australian way.

I have a salt and pepper beard. Unfortunately, there's way too much salt in it and not enough pepper.

SBW won the Roosters the GF in the second half last year, so i'm a little confused........

Balance is the right answer to the question, but i'm unsure skin colour is the issue, the type of players in the relevant positions is the answer. if you have too many dumb players in the same positions (regardless of colour) then you are f**ked! Inexperience also does not help.......and that key thing that has been discussed plenty, leadership, we simply have none unfortunately!!

Our halves are ordinary as a combination imo as well, there seems to be a complete lack of organisation between either of them. I hope with another off season together they can form a better combination and work better in oppositions 20 without having to rely on Hayne to help them out every single time.

These teams are other racist merkins or found the right balance. But probably racist merkins who joined the Klan
