Racist Remarks? : Sun Mar 01, 2009 10:43 pm  

Just watching thr game again and the second brawl was on. Don't knowif I've heard this correctly but Diskin says the reason Bailey kicked off was because there were racist remarks made.

If this is case, that's bad form! No matter what's going on and how much needle there may be, FFS it's professional sport leave that rubbish back in Aus.

Maybe Bailey was so angry he threw his shirt to the floor in anger when subbed.

Perhaps, how would being racially abused make you react at the time?

My thoughts are that some racial comment was made, after Bailey kicked off rather than before. Whilst the brawl was going on, Sinfield turned in total disbelief to something that was said. I said at the time that he was shocked at something verbal rather than physical. We then heard Diskin use the word 'racial' to the referee, who gave his reason for the penalty but said that other things would be looked at after the match.

What did the referee reply "Well you'll have to sort that out after the game" to? It was after the second fight near the end, I think Sinfield said something and he got that reply from the ref.
