It's actually half blue also, there's other photos going around. I don't think it's her being racist just the pub has decided it's Fifitas kid. Not good

Geez he cops some grief, very poor, some real deadbeats out there. He actually speaks really well anytime I've seen/heard him in the press, definitely doesn't deserve this sort of crap.

It's typical of the social media era mate. Keyboard warriors hunt in packs and it seems to transfer to the crowds - e.g the collective, thoughtless boo-athons etc.

Imagine if someone in NSW did something similar with Thurston the target of the racism - there would have been a colonial inquest launched by now. The sad irony is that in poking fun at a NSW player they have probably offended alot of the Maroons camp and supporters as well.

There really needs to be a selection criteria for access to social media, alot of **** just doesn't need to be posted and shared around

Mate, I came here to post a similar thing. Had someone posted an image, and article like this about Thurston there would be an effing uproar of epic proportions.

Why would anyone want to target JT. He is a good guy that always hands his kickingbtee back to the ballboy.

Jesus some people are thin-skinned. How dare someone speak their mind, what a boring world we live in.

The Great Gus Gould has provided many wise words over the years but none more relevant to rugby league than this one …

"Only the paranoid survive," he often says.

And right now the paranoia level of the NSWRL has reached "expert" status over its sponsorship with The Star.

It all stems from prop Andrew Fifita's comments to reporters after the devastating game-two loss in Sydney when he was critical of the side staying at the casino instead of Kingscliff, the idyllic coastal town just south of Tweed Heads.

"We'll be ready to go for game three – we're not at The Star or the Novotel here," Fifita said, adding: "It was tough at The Star. I was on level 16, there were a few of us on level 16, but we couldn't even get down to [teammates on] level 11. It was a bit different in the casino … Moving forward, nothing beats being up in [Kingscliff] away from everyone else."

Those remarks about the major sponsor went down like a schooner of nails within the Blues set-up, as did his gripes about not getting enough ball and being sledged by Maroons forward Josh McGuire.

Fifita is about as naive as they come. He wouldn't even have known who the major sponsor was. Make of that what you will.

How the **** was he bagging the star? Its not even about it really. His comments mean staying in luxury accommodation and not being close to team mates wasnt as good for prep as being in a proper camp
