  • Japan's Sunwolves Exit Super Rugby As Australia Bid Fails
    18 Established 1961 Sports Tuesday, June 2, 2020 Photo of the day Hamilton slams F1 for silence over Floyd death LONDON: World champion Lewis Hamilton criticised the “biggest of stars” in “white-dominated” Formula One for failing to speak out against racism as protests erupted around the United States. The Mercedes driver warned “I know who you are and I see you” as he accused his fellow drivers of “staying silent” following the death of George Floyd, an unarmed black man, during his arrest in Minneapolis. The videotaped incident has triggered unrest in several cities and led to an outpouring of condemna- tion from top athletes including Michael Jordan and Serena Williams. “I see those of you who are staying silent, some of you the biggest of stars yet you stay silent in the midst of injustice,” Hamilton wrote on Instagram. “Not a sign from anybody in my industry which of course is a white-dominated sport. I’m one of the only people of colour there yet I stand alone. “I would have thought by now you would see why this happens and say something about it but you can’t stand alongside us. Just know I know who you are and I see you.” Hamilton, the six-time world champion, said he sup- ported only peaceful protesters, not those who have looted stores and set fire to buildings. But he added: “There can be no peace until our so- called leaders make change. This is not just America, this is the UK, this is Spain, this is Italy and all over.

  • Future of Rugby Union in Australia
    Future of rugby union in Australia Submission to the Senate Community Affairs References Committee Submitted by: Dr David Masters 20 September, 2017 I present this submission as a passionate supporter of both rugby and of the recognition of the State of Western Australia as a partner within the Commonwealth of Australia. I am a foundation member of the Western Force and prepared background material for the Western Force during the development of the “Own the Force” initiative. At this time, I was also a member of a small group advising Force CEO Mark Sinderberry on ownership options. 1 Submission summary The basis to this submission is that the by closing the Western Force rugby team the ARU have: • Not acted in the best interests of Australian rugby; • Used a flawed analysis in their assessment of the need to reduce teams; • Been dishonest in attributing the reasons for their financial losses and; • Been disingenuous in their dealing with Western Force supporters, the media and the Australian public. These will be covered, where appropriate within the specified terms of reference. Key conclusions are substantiated within the main document and are summarised as follows: 1. There is no evidence that increasing the number of Australian Super Rugby teams from 3 to 4 and then to 5 has been the cause of Australia’s recent poor performance in Super Rugby. There is evidence that this decline is associated with the ARU decision to allow and even encourage Australian rugby players to join foreign teams. Continued loss of players to Europe with mean rugby will follow Australian hockey.
