ASIE GBY PLAYER DAVID POCK SCHOOLS POLICIAN ON GAY MARRIAGE
Havg watched the Fol ntroversy unfold prr to the World Cup, I found jarrg to see the tournament beg wh Nigel Owens—an openly gay referee who has movgly spoken of the stggl wh his sexual inty that took him to the brk of suici—clad a jersey wh the emblem of Emirat Airl, the tournament’s sponsor. (Emirat is the flag rrier of Dubai, where homosexualy is still a crimal offense.
Around the 67th mute of the tense, often nasty Super Rugby match between the Waratahs and the Bmbi, durg a break play, a strsed David Pock told the referee Craig Joubert: “There’s some homophobic slurs beg ma. ”“I didn’t hear anythg but I totally agree wh you, ’s unacceptable, ” Joubert told referee asked the Waratahs pta Michael Hooper to have a word to his forwards: “I’m gettg some pretty aggrsive ments g om your guys, that there are homophobic slurs (beg ma).
He turned to Joubert and raised the matter aga wh him: “You heard that sir … you n’t say that, there uld be gay players out there. Pock is quoted by the news se as sayg: “…there’s no room for homophobic language our sport and we want to make clive… Where you start is quellg out that sort of language. ”One of the problems wh the quick and cisive actn taken by the ARU is that none of the tails of the two cints when the homophobic word (said to be ‘faggot’) was spoken have been laid out.
