What a joke.
A token panel to review toxic rugby culture.
A dead cert is the major conclusion to come from this farce
will be a lack of women in positions of power.
Like that will stop street thuggery at one o’clock on a
Sunday morning.
Why is this review even necessary when the N.Z public has been
told consistently the off-field actions of N.Z Rugby players are merely
representative of society as a whole?
That’s to say other males this age get-up-to exactly the
same criminal activities as professional rugby players.
The thinly veiled insinuation from rugby apologists, tabloid
journalists at the likes of the N.Z Herald, is our cricket and soccer
professionals etc. conduct themselves in exactly the same fashion as rugby
players.
We have been fed the line that what rugby players get up-to
in terms of drunken violence, sexual abuse etc. is a microcosm of life in New
Zealand.
Only it isn’t.
That’s why no other sport deems it necessary to have a
similar review.
N.Z Rugby has normalised abnormal behaviour to the point any
conclusions made by this panel will be symbolic at best.
Mark my words this blog will be as busy as normal: review or
no review.
