Racism Hypothetical

If as a supporter of the RFC you knew you could impact an opposition player by racially abusing him from the fence at the footy and putting him off his game - Would you do it?

I'm very unsocial so it matters not a stuff to me from that perspective.

To me it's more about,why slag a guy over a fence like that who can't retaliate?

It's gutless before it's socially unacceptable and remember,political correctness is only silent racism.

What happens if hes kicking for goal about 40 out from the boundary after the siren and if he kicks the goal they win, would you sledge him then?

Half the problem with this topic is the inability of the perpetrator to put themselves in the shoes of the other.
You don't get what you can't get.
I laugh at people who think racism is somehow linked to political correctness - no problems with hermits providing they stay true to themselves

It's only fair that now we're 18th on the ladder, I show the faith back in the club and do everything I can to put them in front. In the end, I'm stoked I made the decision to stay. I f***ing love this club”

Sledging the opposition is apart of football and sport in general.

Racism belongs nowhere.
