If a new NRL team started in the expansion called the Gorillas or Monkeys, could you call their players a monkey?
The Rakuten Monkeys are a pro baseball team in China.

What if u call a tigers player a pussy?
You mean the ocean dwelling mammal. Allegedly.
It's the connotations behind it, it's a different world these days.
Let's please not assume he did it until it is proven. Far too much assumed guilt in the world already.
Hence "if it can be proven".
Credit to all four teams, they came to play (which you expect when 2 points are up for grabs)
But this would have been full of so many distractions etc you could excuse a team turning up underdone.
Tedesco is back! Playing injured last year, he showed if he is fit he is still the best fullback going.
Didn't see anything to suggest the Broncos will be better than last year. (That being said, they were very good last year).
Roosters looks to be major improvers, an easy bet to make the 8 I reckon.
Souths just seem to be playing league from 5 years ago, can't quite put my finger on it. They will be competitive but unlikely to be top 4.
I can see Manly as a Top 4 smokey, if of course Turbo and others can keep injury free. Luke Brooks showed in one game he can be elite in the right environment - a big year for him and I'm sure DCE is quietly pleased to have options

Yes I saw that sentence but everything else you said 'he is an idiot etc'
His interview afterwards was idiotic.

The idea has been mooted by some to either have a super league match or the WCC as one of the games next year

It’s an insinuating your race is less evolved, there were incidents of an indigenous AFL player having bananas thrown at him not that long ago.
Hope he gets the book thrown at him, you could see him mouthing “what did I say?” to his team mate afterwards.
I really wish we could leave the political commentary about race out of this thread. This is a space for talking footy.
Spot on…..it’s the context within particular melting pots & the ethnicities involved etc.
It’s the pot calling the kettle black (no pun intended at all) he definitely called Mam a monkey then gave himself away:
“When placed on report by Gee, Leniu can be heard saying to the referee: “Why would I say that?”.
Dummy.
Can be used in a gentle sort of way too, like I call my cat a cheeky monkey, or a spunky monkey. Probably not in this situation though, although seems weird to be a situation where a Pacific Island man is calling an Aboriginal man the term as it’s mostly been a derogatory term used against ones ethnicity which is associated with skin colour?
Surely you know why Monkey is not okay, don't act dumb mate.
Fag no good either so Montoya found out, even though he was seeing if Feldt wanted a pack of durries
