Et tu REH? Aaaaahhhhh!!!!

Blackfellas say blackfella, it is accepted by them. I have family who are indigenous, and when we talk we say who is that blackfella? etc.

And African-Americans say n****r and that would be unacceptable here.

I come from an era where the term was used in a derogatory manner toward Aboriginal people. While I accept some see it as a neutral term, and I know REH uses it in that way with his work in remote communities, I'm uncomfortable with it being bandied around here as it is quite an 'agricultural' term. It's not that hard to use Aboriginal or Indigenous if it is necessary to distinguish between races.

And there is precedence for legal action

Compare Crampton v Nugawela (84). There, Mr Nugawela, a doctor, set up a computer technology firm. Mr Crampton was associated with a rival group. He wrote a letter imputing that Mr Nugawela falsely claimed to have the support of a professional body to which they both belonged. This was not so. Mr Crampton refused to apologise and, in the course of discussions among mutual professional colleagues, referred on two or three occasions to Mr Nugawela as 'the blackfella'. Mr Nugawela gave evidence that he suffered personal distress and anguish (though no medical evidence appears to have been led about this). He was awarded $500 000 in general damages for personal distress, damage to character and reputation and by way of vindication. The plaintiff included among his grounds for claiming aggravated damages the fact that he was referred to as a 'blackfella' and the Court accepted this without hesitation.

We thought we'd lost you! This is like Harold Holt turning up for a Lib Cabinet meeting on Monday morning.

yesterday's Footy SA - the first 9 minutes is almost all Port.

Last week they said Rowie was joining them on the panel next week. Looks like he was a no show, wonder if the Crows being 0-3 (at the time) and Port coming off a 113 point win over Brisbane had anything to do with Rowie's absence?

Gilbert McAdam! Geez he sure looks different from the days he was picking up his brother Adrian from Nailsworth high who was a classmate of mine, they were both good blokes (very laid back), you couldn't get the ball off Adrian at lunchtime (he was too good)....ahhh memories that school is just houses now

It's taped earlier in the day before the Sunday footy show and if Rowe was to go on he had to catch a 6 o'clock flight. He said on radio mid week he had to cancel because his wife was going over for the game and she refused to go on the 6am flight. They had a 10am flight booked before he was invited onto the show. McDermott got stuck into him for letting the missus wear the pants.

 

[RussellEbertHandball]

The full Sunday Footy show with Ken on at 33.15

Looks like this bloke does a Wookie and tapes a lot of the footy shows in full, but not as many as the Wookie.
