BRONCOS forward Sam Thaiday has apologised for making a racist comment on the NRL Footy Show on Thursday night, in which he insinuated that if women “ain’t white, it ain’t right”.
Thaiday made the comment in the popular Player Probe segment, when host Beau Ryan asked him who his first crush was.
The rugby league veteran said it was US actor Halle Berry but then went on to claim this was during his “jungle fever phase” and that he had since “figured out if it ain’t white, it ain’t right”.
His comments started to receive attention late last night after the ANZAC Test, with Twitter blowing up today as more people discovered what he had said.
I know it's a touchy subject but seriously ppl need to get over themselves.
