:



correct me if I am mistaken but do any of the lorries have pictures of non white players in superleague?

considering Rugby League has always been a leader compared to other sports I gotta say its disappointing to see.

We're coming to make some noise!:



Why should there have to be? Is there anything more racist than HAVING to show you have players of differing races? Everyone is equal so I don't see the problem.

THIS! eusa_clap.gif

it makes me cringe when you see a promotional picture for anything. Even companys ive worked with and they have every Shape, size, race and dissability of people stood together on the picture. it shouldnt even be thought about.

Fear not - Steve Southern is proudly representing the ginners on our truck, demonstrating that WTW is a truly cosmopolitan big city club, with a culture of inclusion and embracing diversity.

Quote: kobashi "I just surprised the lorries didnt have any non white players on show.'"

I confess to wondering the same myself but so far as I know each club chose their own representative. Had Kyle still been playing for us, for instance, he would likely have been put forward as he was getting more and more face time, threatening Wilkin's role of poster boy at the club. Had all the trucks been appearing in groups on a regular basis then I think NOT having any non-white players would have perhaps sent out an unfortunate message, particularly in areas of the country where there are a number of ethnicities represented. But the likelihood is that the trucks will be spotted as they are presently being spotted - in ones and possibly twos here and there, so I wouldn't think anyone will notice.

Frankly I think what is worse is that 70s style porno tash from Wire and that body art (which makes the player look like a reptile).
