Remember that time a bunch of angry people got ridiculously mad at an indigenous man celebrating his culture on indigenous round, while doing a dance taught to him by an Under 16's Indigenous team. And what makes this even more unbelievable their biggest gripe was that an imaginary spear was somehow offensive. But without even knowing it wasn't even a spear, it was a boomerang. He clearly mentioned this after the game. Then proceeded to crucify him for the rest of his career and somehow blamed his treatment on he took dives. What's even more surprising, well not really. That this post by supercoach have turned off it's comments. So, nothing really has changed.
Anyways, I remember. It was 10 years ago today

Is that timeline correct.

I always thought the booing started a bit before that game.............

Depending on which side you believe 1. because he called Australia Day invasion day or 2. because he was reported a couple of times for going knee first in the contest.

Goodes felt he was being booed for racial reasons (fair assumption on his behalf) and then kicked 'that' goal and showed his pride with the celebrational dance.

I never thought the dance was the cause of the booing.

Could be completely wrong......i barely can remember what i had for breakfast yesterday.

Either way it was a sad situation and one that should never went as far as it did. Not Australias proudest moment thats for sure.

The booing started much earlier than this incident (not condoning it), but this tipped it over the edge as people took it as aggression to the crowd for the booing.

Could be completely wrong but wasn't he reported and suspended for a knee first incident on Kane Cornes (maybe player wrong but almost 100% certain it was against Port) ..... maybe that was the second suspension of that nature........could have that all completely wrong and apologise if so.

In hingsight the world might have given him a standing applause for that knowing what we now.

Will also add there was the timing of the 'collingwood supporter' incident that may have been before the booing.. IIRC there was an element who (imo wrongly) felt Goodes was the bad guy for calling out a young female spectator)
