"So here we have one of the greatest champions of this quintessentially
Australian sport, twice the recipient of its highest honour, and once
the recipient of one of the nation’s highest honours, being subjected
week after week to the hateful heckling of hideous throngs of
footy-goers. And why? Well, that depends on whom you ask."

Via Muse, who wrote: "Superb article on Australian racism."
