A junior rugby player in New South Wales, Australia, has been threatened with being banned from the league unless he covers up his crass thigh tattoos, one of which uses a gay slur.

A junior rugby player in New South Wales, Australia, sparked outrage after people online spotted a homophobic tattoo on his thigh, and now the player is facing a ban from the league unless he covers them.

Cronulla Junior Rugby League issued a warning to the unnamed player after a social media post featuring an image of the player exposed the crass tattoos.


Fans were quick to call out the text inked on the players legs.

One line read:

"eat sh*t f****t”

And the other:

“snort lines and f**k”

People on social media were quick to call out the vulgar tattoos, and the post was deleted quickly after.

But the damage was already done, and viewers of the post took to X, formerly Twitter, to express their disgust.











Others wondered how the tattoos slipped under the radar until the post surfaced.


In response to the online conversation, an NSWRL spokesperson said the player was issued an official warning and was told the tattoos must be covered in order for him to continue playing.

“We have a zero-tolerance to any form of bullying, harassment or vilification towards people with diverse sexualities and genders."
“Cronulla JRL has issued the player an official warning and asked him to cover the offending tattoos if he wishes to continue to play in any sanctioned NSWRL competition."
“Being an inclusive sport not only reflects our core values, it also reflects the diversity of our local communities.”

We're glad the league took action against the vile display, but clearly the player has already shown his true colors.

Hopefully tattoos will be more thoroughly screened in the future.

Trump Bizarrely Clashes With Reporter Over Photoshopped 'Tattoo' On Abrego Garcia's Knuckles

President Donald Trump sparked criticism after claiming during an interview with ABC News’ Terry Moran that an edited photo depicting tattoos of wrongly-deported Maryland father Kilmar Abrego Garcia showed that he has an alleged connection to the MS-13 gang.

Abrego Garcia, a Salvadoran national who arrived in the U.S. in 2012, was labeled a threat in 2019 due to an alleged connection to MS-13. He spent months in detention before an immigration judge found he had a credible fear of persecution—not from MS-13, but from a rival group, Barrio 18, which he said had been extorting his family.

Leavitt Lashes Out At Amazon Over 'Hostile' Plan To Display Added Tariff Costs For Products On Website

White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt lashed out at Amazon over news that the commerce giant planned to display increased "import charges" on items on their Amazon Haul website, essentially showing to customers the extra money they'd have to shell out as a result of President Donald Trump's tariffs.

Trump has escalated a growing trade war by imposing tariffs of up to 145% on Chinese imports, prompting China to retaliate with its own 125% tariffs on American goods. Additionally, the U.S. has slapped a 10% tax on imports from most other countries, while temporarily suspending higher rates for several nations for 90 days.
