f**k these yarpies crack me up! The backward inbred f**ks think they have the right to insult OUR culture!!!
This is coming from the team that was forced to strip naked at gunpoint and crawl through jungle in order to "toughen" them up for the 2003 RWC!

I f**ken hate South Africans!

Blaming Australian NRL culture especially...

I don't know where to start with this one...

http://www.smh.com.au/news/Sport/Blame-league-culture-for-loss-White/2005/07/31/1122748515287.html?oneclick=true


This is a piss-weak cheap shot from scum who would not know their arses from their heads!

f**king South African's lecturing on what is acceptable behaviour!!! What's next?

This sort of crap is further proof that these union-fools have an inferiority complex with regards to league! Why else would they pull this sort of sh*t?

I couldn't give a f**k if South Africa took league seriously or not! The game is too good for them, they're not worthy!!!!

People, don't get so stressed about a Nazi talking sh*t and trying to make our culture look bad, we love our league here, union is for twigs borm with silver bits pokin out of their clackers. We are part of a culture that look at black people as people, not as black or coloured or what ever, so we all know what our culture is based on, so what if the boys get on the piss and get rowdy at clubs n stuff, who frigin cares. I would rather league culture be put down for unsociable behaviour and not blatant racism.

f**k union, f**k south africa, we are RUGBY league and we love it.

League and Union in Australia are actually getting on quite well at the moment, relatively speaking.
The SAF fellow is just looking like a goose and if anything, will generate more support behind the Kangaroos and Wallabies.

What I find VERY stange about Rugby League in general is that.....you get SO MUCH talk from union types about how small League is supposed to be. But then you hve union coaches, players and even commentators during games in South Africa, Wales, England, Scotland and the like....and they all seem to follow League to some degree.

I couldnt name a single union club side in RSA.....bvut I bet union fans over there could name a number of NRL teams.

There is no co-incidence that the ARU has made a concerted effort to hijack the term RUGBY over the last several years. And the man behind it was John O'neil who is now with soccer, who now are trying to hijack the term football.

It is the same game plan.

What pisses me off is that a lot of hardcore league people in the media refer to union as rugby.

What chance have we got if league identities pander to the unionists.

We're lucky we don't have that element here in South Africa



Blue Bulls lock Geo Cronje and Western Province lock Quinton Davids were left out following an alleged racist incident at the Springbok training camp in Pretoria last week.

Twenty-three-year-old Cronje was expelled from the squad's base for allegedly refusing to share a room with Davids, who is black, but has subsequently been cleared of any wrongdoing.

The Cape Argus reported on Thursday that Cronje moved into a room with white Bulls team-mate Fourie du Preez because he refused to share with Davids.

But an investigation into the matter conducted by the South African Rugby Football Union (SARFU) cleared Cronje of racism.

The union said in a statement: "The investigation found that there was not conclusive evidence to support or justify that Cronje had breached SARFU's code of conduct."

There are six black players in the 30-man squad, two more than in 1999, as well as four uncapped players.



Nice.

Some ex RL players go out for a beer with some unionites, one of the unionites gets a bit out of control and some dickweed from South Africa is blaming the demise of the Wallabies on the rugby league culture - they might not have that element in south africa, there probably isn't room for that element with folk like these involved in union:

Jake White has been a moron who has been spouting crap for a long time. He and Jones hate each other's guts, and he's come out with this in a further attempt to further destablise the team.

All the hot air coming out of Ricky Stuarts mouth in the last 3 years has caused irreversible damage to the atmosphere

The same thing happens in AFL as soon as a league player does anything wrong they say it's league culture when other codes do it it's a problem of society.
Union always brush negative publicity under the carpet, league's perception created by the media is that they are all on the drink, so to deflect attention on this matter union blame league and the public will say "yeah, it's their fault".
Whilst I am on about comparisons, did anyone watch the main game on foxtel last Thusrday and see the "what happened next" segment? They showed the explosion at the Bulldogs game whilst the AFL one was the AFL doing something for breast cancer with 10,000 women on the field (nothing to do with football at all) clearly trying to gain points. Then the AFL reporters made all their snide remarks.
Why is it always AFL and union that takes cheap shots and no other sport? Simple, we have something they want.

Here is a couple of extracts from Francois Pienaar (SA union WC captain) biography 'Rainbow Warrior.' From the chapter titled 'A Rugby Education:'

...we gathered as a squad for our customory court sessions after an away match.The proceedings were abruptly disturbed by shouting in the adjacent hotel bar. Johan Le Roux, the Transvaal prop was there with some friends and some of us left the court to settle things down. We weren't looking for trouble, we were simply trying to resolve the trouble.

We found choas with Johan in the middle of a mass brawl, but tempers were starting to cool one guy came up to me and cracked a beer bottle oper my head.As I turned, he ran into a toilet but I followed him in the Gents and hit him hard.. The stranger fell unaware of what or who struck him. I was angry and sore...my head was spinning... I knew matters had spiraled out of hand, but it was hard to understand where I lost control.

...I retaliated against a complete stranger who hit me over the heads with a bottle..."

Anyway suffice to say Pienaar's RU education was puncuated with regular voilence both on & off the field.

Pienaar also explains that union in SA was ridled with indiscipline & bad habits. He states he had started to receive brown envelopes stuffed with R50 notes(about 10 pounds) etc..

So much for the so-called SA union ethos or as someone said one "It is a culture to be despised."

Nothing more than window dressing and you've fallen for it. Union will never be happy to co-exist with rugby league, its goal is to dominate the code and marginalize it.
