How many teams have members of the Jamaican bobsled team training with them?

[halfman_halfroo]

Of course I mean our African recruits?

I thought Majak Daw was the first african born player to be listed by an AFL team. May be wrong though.

 

[halfman_halfroo]

it is my understanding a few of the teams have african players training with them this week?

 

[4n20]

sorry, i misread the 'training' part.

West Coast have had a white african playing for us, i think North aside from Daw also had a black South African.

Damien Cupido played 50 + games, Stephen Lawrence 100+

Saints have Van Rheenen.

You do realise Jamaica is just slightly outside of Africa right?

Admittedly, my post was tinged with invisible sarcasm...

The whole Jamaican thing is seriously verging on just being blatantly racist.

Jamaican usually refers to somebody who is of African descent.

Yeah, im not one of those politically correct types myself, at all actually (i once greeted an aboriginal friend of a friend who i had never met before with "Gday Blacky", and when in the vicinity of feminists, i refer to them only with terminology ranging from "sweetheart" to "c*nt") but yeah, i think this threads pretty much racist.

Idiotic. Define racism.

On google, it says

• the prejudice that members of one race are intrinsically superior to members of other races
• discriminatory or abusive behavior towards members of another race

This is neither, in any way, god seriously we are becoming such a PC country it is bullshit.

I am Aboriginal, and if you had greeted me without knowing me with that opening line, you'd have woken up in hospital. I hope that's what happened.

that's true we are...but I suspect you have been a douche since birth.

your reference might only be 'low-fi' racism but it was neither funny nor necessary so why say it?

yawn.

douche.

haha my comment gets removed because its too offensive.. Your an idiot Vader if your gonna let this thread go and i make one comment towards these racist rednecks and it gets deleted!

Thread seems to have degenerated into a debate about whether or not it's racist. Certainly nothing about players of African descent being discussed.

Thread closed.
