Anyone notice that the BBC has 'Fonua' making the chicken wing tackle on Atkins! Lazy journalism at best, although some might claim it's libel (or even racism).

I did indeed notice it. It was still there earlier this morning as well but has now been changed. Still it does maintain its low standards by saying Manu returned to play a key role for the rest of the game, impressive as he went off injured later. Then again these islander types do all look the same. :roll:

I don't know which excuse for a journalist writes these reports for the BBC, a closet dobbin by the look of it. Still you can say they are equalising standards with their radio team.

Racism? On what grounds? That is quite a serious accusation with absolutely no foundation whatsoever. Grow up.

I see that the sentence about Manu playing a key role in the remainder of the game has now disappeared. Is someone having a word with the BBC?

As much as the above statement is slander.

Just be careful what you accuse people of...I get Manu & Fonua mixed up all the time at first glance and I most certainly aren't a racist.

True, that's the verbal isn't it? Libel then? Either way they need to be careful.
