s**t band.
Yep, that is taking ear grommets to a new level...Those ear expander thingos. Why not just put a huge sign on your head: "I am a massive flog".
That is a really good read.
Just keep digging your hole..Yes. I tried to change it. Port have a section called Black Diamonds, which is actually from an excellent book about aboriginals in sport.
If the mods can help change it, and if there is a better title..... lets go for it. With the emergence of the remote academy it could be worth stickying.
Fremantle brothers?
There are no 'those people', do you refer to our team as "The White Cloud"? It's an odd title and could have done with some thought. 'Indigenous' would have been more appropriate given I don't see the AFL using the term 'Black' anywhere.I actually like the title, let it stick!
There is always going to be "those people" that will use it in a derogatory sense, we cant help that.
Instead of Black Tide what about indigenous pride?There are no 'those people', do you refer to our team as "The White Cloud"? It's an odd title and could have done with some thought. 'Indigenous' would have been more appropriate given I don't see the AFL using the term 'Black' anywhere.

Thankyou for sharing . That was a great read.
Underrated post. "Freo's Indigenius Recruitment" - although maybe we wait until Bennell, the Hills, Walters, Yarran, Johnson, A.Pearce, Hamling, D.Pearce and any others are all tearing it up and we are winning games again first. Excepting injuries I wouldn't be surprised if we have those 9 playing Round 1."Freo's recruitment - indigenius"
You're welcome.
Hamling Grey A Pearce Griffen, Aboriginal?? Come on those boys are whiter then white
Dont you think claiming there aboriginal is an insult? Would seriously be interested in finding out what percentage they areBecause the level of melanin in your skin should be the only defining characteristic of Aboriginal heritage.
Ffs, grow a brain.

Coming from a master troll like your self you should know?. If you dont want to have an adult conversation when someone makes a point back maybe you shouldn't comment in the first placeNow I know you are trolling.
Lil' disclaimer I believe is necessary
It's impossible to dispute Freo's significant indigenous presence and it has always been indubitably higher than the norm. Both in terms of players and grassroots involvement and support. That's before you even get to Neesham/Clontarf and the effect that's had in shaping us as a very progressive footy club. I have faith most of us can handle the topic with due respect.
As such, this is a valid thread topic and deserves a fair go. I would suggest one thing though and that's trying to avoid veering too far into SRP territory and getting bogged down in the wider societal aspects and issues, try and confine discussion mostly to Freo's or the AFL's role/s in indigenous affairs if possible.
cheers.
