Whatever else may come out of this, it shows IMO that Rinehart is an evil, vindictive cow. That $15M is chump change for her, and her bottom line would not be affected in the slightest by logo less jerseys. Just a bastard act.

Rinehart pulled the sponsorship, isn't that what they wanted?

Just a bastard act.Same disgraceful human wanted to sack all her workers, import migrant labour and pay them $2 an hour.
Probably happy to save the sponsorship money...

I'm sure she thinks the $2 per hour is fantastically generous on her part.

No. One player didn't want to wear the Hancock logo but there was never a desire to ditch the sponsorship. What was a show of solidarity with an Indigenous teammate was seized upon as an anti-mining, pro-environment protest, but that was never the intention.

Just a bastard act.For the record, the company said they were happy to provide the money and never asked for a thankyou, never demanded the logo had to be worn. Its what happened since that pissed them off. They have made a statement as such. NA are a rablle, its unacceptable to treat sponsors (which are hard enough to get) like that.
As for comments her idiot father may have made, I dont think for a minute Hancock Co. or Gina R support or condone such views today. Lets move on. Or, do we we wipe her from the face of the Earth for those comments?

It would seem to be a simple matter for Rinehart to issue a comment rejecting her father's beliefs but she has steadfastly refused despite countless opportunities to do so. The Diamonds fiasco gave her yet another opportunity.
Netball Australia is a rabble. An issue that should have been settled behind closed doors was allowed to spin out of control; no-one is a winner and netball is a loser.

Firstly, we don't know what her opinion is. There's little in the public domain that suggests she is different from her old man.
Secondly, I see no reason why we need to invoke extreme rhetoric to make a point.

Good advice for NA would be to not crap where you eat!
