Collingwood calls on long-time supporter Joffa Corfe to apologise for racist comments about Indian workers
Collingwood Football Club says racist comments made by a long-time supporter about Indian aged care workers does not reflect the club’s views.
Key points:
- Joffa Corfe has been associated with Collingwood for many years
- Collingwood said while he was not employed or a member of the club, he should consider apologising
- It comes after an independent report found systemic racism at the club
Joffa Corfe, known in AFL circles as one of Collingwood’s most passionate fans, sent out a tweet on Tuesday after the final report of the aged care royal commission was handed to the federal government.
Mr Corfe tweeted: “Get rid of all Indian workers in aged care might be a start.”
In another post, he said he would not be silenced from his views.
