Tex walker worth a shot?

[loki04]

That simply shows how ignorant he is. If any player believes Collingwood is or was any worse than any other club in any given time period with regard to its bogan racist element they are fools.

It's hard to change perceptions once cast look at Gouki and Walker or me if you look at his tone.

People cast a set on things and that's their belief.

Hilarious absolving of blame. It's not the people who do racists thing who are responsible for being thought of as racist, it's those who don't forget them doing said racist things.

Yeah, what would the Indigenous person know about experiencing racism?

What would him being indigenlous have to do with assessing which club is more racist unless he has been involved with every club? The media hypes up every Collingwood issue. If you think we were worse then Richmond, Carlton, Hawthorn, Melbourne, St Kilda or any other club through the 60's, 70's,80's and 90's you have bought into the same media hype.

Hawthorn players openly racially abused West Coast indigenous players during the late 80's and early 90's. Dermie has spoken about it at length. Yet they are never in the conversation, Gary Lyon said he did the same.

No he has been blamed for his actioned as well as punished, embarrassed and shamed publicly, loss of income, and forever tarnished.

It's you not being able to let go and labelling people forever that's the sad part.
Why aren't you as angry at the former pies players and admin? shouldn't you be demanding name and shame on them or are you a hypocrite?

The ignorance of your first question says it all.

I am as angry at those people who perpetrated racism, but nice try. I've posted about it lots. Cute little effort at whataboutism

So Collingwood players were more guilty of racist abuse than Hawthorn or Melbourne players who have openly stated they employed such tactics when they and their teammates played. Gary Lyon and Dermie have spoken about it.

Your comment makes zero sense.

Where the **** did I write that? You are being beyond dishonest in your inability to admit that a) racism has existed at Collingwood, and b) Indigenous players might know a bit about it.

We are in a loop. The player in question said he would not go to Collingwood because they are a racist club. How would he know if he has never been there other than the fact he is relying on media hype surrounding our club? If he said he wouldn't go to Hawthorn or Melbourne either based on Cyril Rioli's experience and the comments by Dermie and Gary Lyon he might be showing some consistency. I have never said racism never existed at Collingwood. I have said I don't believe it was systemic. Individuals in crowds back in the day were undoubtedly racist. Individual players may also have racially abused players.

It's no different to people saying Australia is a racist country because you can cite examples of individuals in a country of 28 million having racist attitudes. Our country is one of the most multi cultural and welcoming to all cultures and races on this planet yet many still make this claim.

Do you think Indigenous players might talk about this kind of thing with one another? Much the same as women spread via word of mouth where predators hang out, for example?

 

[Timmy from Thomastown]

He's not responsible for the camp.
He is a very loyal Crows club man, like Mark Ricuitto puts the club above all is why he is silent.

It's like Pendles after our do better report he didn't come out and spill his guts on ex players (potentially himself) and administrators did he? Or bash the club.

Tex made a mistake of poor racial language after a team mate was felled off the ball. He also got hung drawn and quarterd for it. And still is.

Exactly wh6 he’s not welcome.

Thank goodness he staying at the crows, too much baggage
Good footballer, but that’s it though
