    But you have to agree it sure is effective. How many posts were made when Geale made his announcement for the Sturm fight? In 15 minutes Mundine has generated 100 times the media coverage of Geale's entire career (disregarding the Mundine/Geale debates).

    By the time January comes around, the hype will be crazy. In every pub it will be Mundine (The loud mouth, cocky, racist SOB) v Geale (The humble, honest, family man). Every dick tom and harry will be talking about this fight. Geale v Sturm and Geale v Slyvester put together can be considered the bigger fights in historical terms but it has generated 1% of press coverage. 1% of public debate and probably 1% of revenue.

    I disagree, he is trying to dissasociate geale from his own race, deeming him to be of different pedigree and belittling him for it, therefore it is racist. I think white australians can be extremely racist but there is so much political correctness around these days it is hardly outspoken, to tell the truth the most racist group of people that i have ever come across are from african heritage, towards white people and those of other tribes. but that is neither here nor there. And i agree a hundred percent with you stormlander, it sure is effective and he knows how to work the media into a frenzy, both men will become very wealthy from this fight

    He also did it in league Barry Ward incident attacking Beetson for him Blacklock,Peachey not getting rep honours. That didn't increase PPV sales or any of the other reasons people are giving here he was on a set contract things like that didn't earn him more money. Not that I care too much about this claptrap at least he's fighting a credible opponent.

    Of course you can. Also he was implyng that real aboriginal men do not marry white women. That's the kind of philosophy you will find in the nazi's and kkk

    As i said in another thread these are perhaps the most racist comments made by anyone in the public eye in australia in years. The 'exterminate' comment was not by accident either

    The most stupidly racist things I have ever seen are from the few people on this forum who have clear predjudice against both Muslims and Aboriginals, and then mock both saying you can not be muslim aboriginal.
    I am aboriginal, my heritage is from Taree area. I am proud of my heritage and have also been raised a catholic.
    I bet I would not hear you ****wit racists saying that I cannot be catholic and aboriginal! Well its the same ****ing thing!
    Dreamtime is story telling, culturally signaficant, but we don't take it as literal! Only ****wits like the few on here infer that.

    One can most certainly be pround and aboriginal,. believe in their history and culture, follow dreamtime teachings and belong to any faith they desire
    Jew, Christian, Muslim *(which are all identical basically anyway, all books of abraham and all to a degree stolen from the egyptian teachings in the book of the dead), hindu, budist, WHATEVER.

    The sooner certain ****s on here understand the better the world will be.

    End rant

    Mate there is truth to it, Unless u are part of a minority group in this country you wouldnt know. Yes the guy brings a tonne of **** onto himself with his stupid comments, but him being Aboriginal and outspoken is a big part of it as well.

    Yes man- for sure-

    Australia makes America look good in terms of racism lol

    Australia needs an overhaul to its approach to racism- Just because its not talked about it doesn't mean exist- They simply dont want to talk about it and brush it under the carpet- ""nah we are not racist"
    LOL


    Lets say 30% of the Australian populations comes from a non-white Australian background, does Australia have 30% of its member of parliament from non-English background? Maybe 1-2 Penny Wong and one more. Compare it to America where mexicans are now a major political force- They started from the bottom and can we say the same about Australia? NO This is just an EXAMPLE of things in this Country-


    The point i am making is that compare it to America and they have an African American president, i for one cant see any Aboriginal being a PM for some times- hell i cant even see a non- white Aussie becoming a PM-


    When Australia gets close to have anywhere near the opportunities as there are in America (real equal opportunities) and if we ever even get close to have a non White PM then we can say some progress has been made.


    And in regards to Bumdine, yes he shouldnt have talked about someone;s wife and kids- thats not on- But in terms of questioning Geal's desire to be involved with his community, he is Spot on! If i was an aboriginal Super stars tlike geale, i would be MORE VOCAL about my ethnicity as Aboriginal people in Australia do need a voice from people like him!


    The end!

    Mundine's White Mother must be so proud of her halfbreed abomination that despises her people so much, you reap what you sow.

    Mundine likes to flirt with dangerous waters as he knows that even if worst comes to worst and theres a public outrage, he'll always have some stupid mong from whatever race in his entourage to come out and showcase their brothership to try and prove that he's not racist, prejudice, etc.

    You miss the point - Mundine is the one who is constantly judging the Aboriginality of other people such as Cathy Freeman and now Daniel Geale and it's ironic because the Mundine persona owes more to his heroes outside of the Aboriginal 'race' than it does to his own people.

    No you miss the point.

    Mundine rightfully questioned Geale, who although wears an aboriginal flag on his shorts, and accepted higher funding to participate in junior sports due to being 1/16th aboriginal.

    Mundine implied Geale should be using his status to improve the plight of aboriginals, speak for them, DO SOMETHING!
    Geale does nothing!

    And this is the problem Mundine was getting at!

    Way to many 1/16th and 1/32 white aboriginals claiming Aboriginal, to get access to grants and funding meant to support first generation Aboriginals who are at a disadvantage!

    If you watched Mundines press conference at 1515 today you would understand!

    Geale needs to step up!
    And the government needs to do something about white aboriginals from cities claiming benefits, and give to communities that are in need!
