C'mon mate we aren't talking about lazy sh^ts here, I'm guessing that neither went to school through no fault of their own.
Not condoning their actions but sometimes just labelling people feral is unfair.

I was brought up by a single mother, I managed to find a way to school every day for 12 years and stick to a job for over 28 years which enabled me to retire at the age of 46.
My girlfriend was looking after her family from about the age of 7 in the slums of Bradford because of an alcoholic mother and abusive father, she's now doing great after saving up to move to Australia and working full time ever since as well as bringing up 3 kids.
No fault of their own my arse.
The Port supporter didn't look like she'd missed out on much in life, she's certainly been fed!

That's great!
And you sound like you might have half a brain to go with it. ;)
These 2 people clearly don't have half a brain between them.

Maybe you could educate them or show them the way to school!

lol. Port supporters at their finest


This is what I was referring to

Lesson learned is all supporters of all clubs unfortunately have a feral element and that no one team has 'better' supporters than others.



The brawl had nothing to do with a racial slur, it started because one filthpot spat in another persons face because they were drunk

So, maybe Showdowns should be the 12:30pm Sunday game from now on - until crowd behaviour improves?

Probably a good idea, some of the historical violent clashes between EPL teams used to get moved to noon games.

The said bird now has been put up to face court next month over the comments. I understand why they are doing to set a precidence in the future but what is it really going to achieve in this case? She has no idea what she is doing and does not understand the backlash from her words. It's not hard to google her name on fb and see the numerous accounts that she has created over the years and then see the way she expresses her opinion. She abuses everyone who does not like or does not agree with. She's an idiot on top of being mentally challenged. This all is not going to change that and just is a waste of tax payer funds. Channel 7 are a ******* disgrace for making this a bigger issue than what it should be. Also no one gives a shit that she called both Walker and Betts a pedophile which to me is a far worse thing to say!

Just goes to show how the media twist shit to suit their agenda!

Geez Robby went to town on SA last night on 360 over the racism issues of the last two Showdowns. He's right that it needs to be stamped out obviously, but really missed the point that racism is an issue throughout the country, and needs all parts to fight the battle.

That might mitigate the punishment but still doesn't excuse what she said.

I think his point is somewhat valid though. This is the second showdown in a row this has happened.

It also sends a public message that this sort of nonsense won't be tolerated by the authorities, so I wouldn't say it's a waste of money. Prosecuting people (or at least bringing them before a court) is one way of setting standards for what is acceptable behavior, both for the person in question and everyone else.
