Unless you are Lance Stroll.
Not saying he is a terrible driver but there are definitely better drivers without a drive, plus, his Dad owns the team.
Hardly relevant.....in the land of the blind he with one eye is King, until someone turns up with two.
How many Kangaroos players have gone through The Kings School, exactly?
I see what you mean but doesn't it make it better when they make it non quota? Shows they actually deserve it?
South Africa still had hangover issues with Apartheid, meaning you had to be from a wealthy influential family, or at least had the money to go to the right school. We don't have those issues in RL in Australia, where everyone has equal opportunity regardless of race. Any talk of racial quotas is really bad news and needs to be stamped out quickly.
To correct the argument, I never once said quotas. More the fact it's great to have indigenous players in the national team.
Two - I do think if you go to a posh boys school in Sydney you'll have far more opportinity than, say, an Indigenous kid from Walgett.
Three - the NRL makes a lot of money playing the Indigenous card - the All Stars game, Indigenous jerseys, Welcome to country, even Indigenous Australian jerseys. It should promote Indigenous players. Not saying it doesn't.
A company like Qantas is the worst - it paints its planes in Aboriginal art, its crew wear Indigenous pattened uniforms, its promotional videos are full of First Nation imagery and kangaroos. It's happy to steal from Indigenous culture but gives little back.

Shit mate you don't understand the private school system if you are a sportsperson with talent you will get all the scholarships and help in the world. yes even the kid from Walgett (black or white).
Your commentary re indigenous card gets played very heavily in our society, not or always fairly but nothing in life is "fair". It gets played incidently by Sudanese and other black immigrants, Indians, Asians and anybody else that can be exploited.
Why paint Qantas as the worst and stealing indigenous culture, who is selling boomerangs, trips over Ayers rock and anything else as a bought and sold commodity?
It seems to me you have an enormous chip on your shoulder and you should just focus on being a good person rather than how many shades show up in a room full of lights.
I love it when those who prey on the disadvantaged and drug-addicted, like HockSop owners....like Ploppa, hold forth and lecture on the advantages of being disadvantaged.
Pontificating Puffoonery
When you refer disadvantaged and drug addicted like yourself it is hard to be so critical Randolph, I am not sure what Sop owner is but presume it is some sort of distillery.....i have no such thing but I would like to make a donation to you in your endeavours to get your sobriety back. Is there a safe room for you to go to?
I'm starting to really regret this post.
