The NSWRL has dropped the hammer on a Rugby League fan, slapping them with a whopping 20-year ban for hurling vile abuse at former NSW prop, Andrew Fifita.
This shocking incident has sparked a racism furore in the Rugby League Central Coast competition, taking the situation to a whole new level of disgrace.
The drama unfolded during a heated clash between Fifita's Woy Woy Roosters and the Wyong Roos, where a brawl erupted in the stands.
With Fifita, a seasoned veteran with 252 NRL games under his belt and a premiership win with the Cronulla Sharks in 2016, at the center of the storm, things quickly escalated.
Allegations of racial abuse were hurled at Fifita, prompting some players to leave the dressing room and jump into the fray.
This ban serves as a stark reminder that such behavior has no place in the world of Rugby League.
It's a harsh penalty that sends a clear message to fans that this kind of behavior will not be tolerated.
Let's hope that this incident serves as a wake-up call for all supporters to keep their passion for the game in check and show respect to all players, regardless of their background.
