This headline is just playing tricks on us like always! 🙄 But after actually reading the article, it all makes sense now!

Yo, Ernie Dingo brought in Welcome to Country - it ain't the usual way, period.

Sometimes we all just need a little reminder about how important a Welcome to Country is. This explanation really helps us appreciate and understand indigenous culture better. Costa Vrahnos

250,000 years? Nah mate, more like 65,000. And before Cook? That's a load of bull someone's cooked up. Talking about causing more rifts, he's spot on.

The Welcome to Country was totally fine, and I actually found it pretty interesting. It seems like some folks, especially the audience for this publication, just love getting their feathers ruffled.

I don't believe he made a mistake, except for saying 250,000 BC, as Homo sapiens did not finish evolving until 70,000 years ago. Kim Smith

I'm just done with all this welcome to country crap. We're all here, so deal with it. Let's just learn to coexist. You can't change what's already happened, so let's just move forward and make it better.

Richard Mitchell
The headline and the story are just trying to make a big fuss. When you actually read what he said, it's not controversial at all. He's simply stating that 'welcome to country' is for everyone, regardless of skin color, who comes to that area. It's an invitation for anyone to that specific part of t... View More

So like, I've been into football for like 40-50 years, and I remember seeing this awesome player named Polly Farmer and others. But throughout all those years, I never saw a 'welcome to country' thing happening. But now, it's happening all the time, and I'm kinda curious why that is! Maybe the refer... View More

Because no one bothered to double-check what was cool and nobody cared to study. Do you honestly believe Polly Farmer would have felt comfortable sharing that information with anyone at that time? He would have probably been beat to a pulp!

I'm totally obsessed with Welcome to Country! Especially when they do a Smoking Ceremony. Who wouldn't want to be greeted like that? And what about "Welcome Home" signs? Are we getting rid of those too?

For real, 250K years? Crazy how that number keeps climbing! It was only 70K not too long ago 😉 Total BS, it's all meaningless now. Majority of Aussies want this crap to end, it's a joke. And don't get me started on Aboriginal folks claiming tradition but rocking American styles 🤣 Jessica Garcia

Welcome to country was invented by none other than Ernie Dingo! It's not old-school money or anything from the Captain Cook era.

Until we upgrade the national anthem to be more inclusive like NZ and South Africa, it's only right to have both that and Welcome to Country. It's the least we can do to show respect to everyone, and it's what makes us stand out.

Bloody funny trying to lug heaps for their mates Emma Jones
good onya this didn't happen at The Movenpick! Scott Bennett
Haha! He totally dropped the trio to snatch the duo. Luke Edwards
The poor baby. This makes me so sad and so angry
If you know this "dude", speak up ASAP, your silence is just letting him get away with it.
I hope the cops catch this guy and give him a serious punishment. Sophia Taylor
I'm furious about this. I hope they catch and punish him soon. Just evil. I pray for the baby and mother facing tough times ahead. 🙏
I bet the courts gonna give him a pass on some mental health BS, but this dog deserves to feel some hurt every damn day. My heart goes out to that poor kid, hoping they don't suffer anymore.
I hope karma gives that sorry excuse for a human what he deserves.
He legged it with a cuppa, chucked it on a bloke, then bolted without a worry about the cameras...no worries mate. Catherine Manning
I hope the baby recovers quickly and fully, his parents receive support, and justice is served for the perpetrator.
What a piece of trash excuse for a person, I hope he gets what's coming to him. Katelyn Murphy
Someone had better locate this guy before one of us beats them to it!
I will give him 50 lashes when found, and 70 if he says he has mental health problems.
I reckon it's a real bloody shame someone would do something so awful. Hope they catch the bloke responsible pronto and charge him. Sending good vibes to the little bloke for a speedy recovery and hope his family gets all the help they need. Can't begin to imagine what they're going through.
Poor little bubs! I hope karma sorts out that bloody drongo. Jessica King
We gotta find this guy quick before he hurts another kid. He's seriously dangerous. Sending good thoughts to the little boy and hoping he gets better soon. So sad for him and his fam. 💔
What the heck are people thinking, causing pain to a poor innocent baby who's gonna be messed up for life?
Folks be straight up losing it these days, can't even step out your crib anymore. Roger Lee
He needs to be caught, taught a lesson, and tossed in the slammer!
I can't even imagine why someone would do something so heartless to a kid. I really hope they catch the person responsible and make sure they face the consequences.
What actions would the government take if a dog attacked a toddler.
What a bloody grub to tip scalding coffee on a poor little bub.
Don't ring the cops, give the community a bell if ya spot this bloody bludger. We need a citizen's arrest, mate. Baden Stevenson
A terrible, unexpected boo-boo happened to a wee one. Big hugs to all the heroes who came to their rescue, and to the amazing paramedics and hospital staff. Sending lots of love and healing vibes for a speedy recovery, and sending some extra love to mum too!
Who's this savage animal? If he ain't from around here, send him back.
Ah, mate, they're gonna catch you for that mischief you got up to!
This story shows both the good and bad sides of people, I am grateful for those who helped and hope the person responsible is caught.
It's so awesome how many folks swooped in to save the day for this kiddo! They definitely minimized the owies. It warms my heart to see that there's more good than bad out there. And as for that bad guy, he better watch out in jail. They do not take kindly to child-hurters there. His comeuppance is ... View More
What a bloke, picking on a poor little bub. You should be ashamed of yourself mate, making everyone sick.
They'll catch him, but he'll probably just get away with a warning.
Happy Birthday
Happy Birthday to someone who makes the world a better place just by being in it.
Happy Birthday! Wishing you a year filled with love, laughter, and joy.
