I was out injured one day and took the runner's role and was asked to do exactly that.

Exactly.

Umpire didnt pay a free apache so must have been 'within the rules' during the last term. Why wasnt your runner doing the same if its an advantage?

Too much is made of the 'runner is coaching'. How are they going to police it serously? I say just let them go. Who cares if they direct players, fill holes, encourage players. Both sides get 1 runner. Is it not equal for both sides?

you need to get back to the Gambling Room - Grub, your sense is much more valuable in there!!

There ya go, fixed.

Anyway, all this is beyond the point. It's disappointing to see that someone thought they could racially vilify someone. I would've hoped football supporters were better than that these days. The fact people still think it's appropriate to throw out racial slurs indicates the importance of continuing to educate people about racism and the need for people of high profile to continue taking a public stance against it.

I guess it all depends on which club you support and who is committing the 'offence', doesn't it?

I don't think I have EVER been concerned by any runner from any club. So no, I don't think it does.

Was it people or was it a person and was it racial slurs or as it a racial slur.
There is always a DH at any sporting venue. Becareful not to put the whole crowd in that slot

Bit hard to narrow it down though in the Western Stand at the Parade.....

Be nice to beat the PAP smears again especially with 19 on the field, that would be a great result.....

No GAYFL in the SANFL finals

I gave Warrior pelters all day for being an overweight Port cheat from the Western Stand and am happy to do it all again tomorrow.

There's however no need to bring the colour of his skin to in at any point.

That the NFC haven't been able to identify and ban this ftard 'supporter' is disappointing.

I didn't put the whole crowd in it. But it happens so regularly among football supporters that it is concerning.

I'm not surprised you feel that way - you've proved my point that it does depend on who you support. As I've never really heard anyone EVER complain about a runner from any club other than one west of the city centre.

Pretty poor way to treat anyone. Let alone a past player of your club. Setting a good example there topsy. Each to their own I suppose.

You got it right, past player.
Now he deserves to cop the abuse at SANFL games as does anyone involved in the 2 AFL sides.
As long as its not racist everything else is fair game.

Got a bit tired of it after 5 minutes let alone 120. As long as you thought the continual abuse was acceptable then I guess thats all the matters to you. I wouldnt want my children going to the footy and listening to that all day to be honest. But if it made you feel good about yourself then well done.
So he's got a bit of a gut and a little overweight and does some part time work at port, so he must 'deserve it', must be no mirrors in the western stand toilets.

Constant abuse of people doing what they love like volunteering at a footy club, running water, team management etc. Yeah, you're going about it the right way.

Hero. Why would you abuse someone who is just helping their club out, doing what they've probably done for years and someone who had nothing to do with the current SANFL structure? It borders on stupidity. Might as well yell at the wall. But, if it fills your heart with delight, makes you feel big, good luck to you.

I think you under estimate the absolute hatred of the AFL clubs by the majority of SANFL fans. I dont hear anyone abusing the waterboys, medical staff or other volunteers of Port. The abuse is of a guy who constantly is flaunting the rules. Players and coaching staff are the only others from Port ive heard be abused.
Its only going to get worse until they are evicted, hopefully at seasons end

Are they also in an underground bunker which reeks of stale piss, or is this just the plebs facility on the eastern flank?
