Chapter 8: Who are the Bulldogs' best players according to Kenty?
Jared Fitties says, Kenty, what's your thoughts on players not singing the national anthem, not only during the State of Origin games, but playing for their country? I've noticed it in both men's and women's games.
Oh, look, that's a heavily political answer, isn't it? I don't like it personally. I understand reasons why some people don't do it.
They don't know the words?
Well, bad singing voices, nothing worse than someone who can't hold a tune was. No, I don't like it. Why not? Well, you've chosen to represent something, and by attending, you've chosen to represent that. Mm-hmm. Okay. And you can make a protest. I get the protests, right? I get the reasons why and all that.
But by actually turning up the play, you've chosen to represent, in Rugby League's terms, a game that was created in England.
What about the idea that it's a State of Origin game, so it's not a national game?
So you're not representing Australia. Look, there's far too much national anthem playing and all that. I think it should be only for internationals.
Yeah, I don't know why there's a national anthem at the State of Origin.
Well, I don't think there was back in the day. And now it's just to make it a little bit more special. But I actually don't think they need it. And now it's that bedded in that they can't get away from it. Because I don't know why you've got to go through all this bullshit. celebrations before the game and people getting out doing stuff and people on the field. Just let them run out and play.
