PORT Adelaide Football Club will investigate claims an Adelaide Oval spectator racially abused Richmond player Bachar Houli during Sunday‘s elimination final victory over the Tigers.

Reports linked Houli — the AFL‘s first devout Muslim — as the victim of a taunt that labelled him a “terrorist”.

A woman told Channel 7 that fans on the hill yelled to Houli: “Go back home you terrorist ... back to ISIS.”

It was not confirmed on Tuesday night whether the taunt came from a Port Adelaide supporter or member.

“The Port Adelaide Football Club is aware of a spectator complaint from Sunday‘s first elimination final at the Adelaide Oval alleging Richmond player Bachar Houli was racially vilified by a fellow spectator,” the Power said in a statement.

“The club is still seeking more details but understands the police were informed about the matter at the time.”

The taunt was reported by another fan to an anti-social behaviour hotline, promoted at every AFL venue.

The abuse claim is an unwanted distraction for the Power, which charged into a cut-throat semi-final against Fremantle at Patersons Stadium in Perth on Saturday night with a 57-point thrashing of the Tigers on Sunday.

That is one intense looking beard.

Not a surprise. Happens every week.

 

It's good that this stuff is being reported after so many years of being swept under the rug.

Thats what I would have heckled him for  "Where's your axe?" or "where's your fixie?"

He looks roided up in that photo. Massive arms!

I think the fact the Port bogans knew who ISIS is should be commended. They would be lucky to have a collective brain cell that works.

 

Hopefully they are caught and banned (thought they will just then jump the fence and go back to old habits).

 

Fark Port
