Does Dayle Garlett qualify?

I think a few of the indigenous players have found it hard to cope with the big smoke.

Couldn't cut him slack for being stolen off us?

Harbrow and Ward are the Doggies, Stolen Generation.

Harbrow's family comes from not only Cairns but Moroopna as well.

Does that make them different from white players from the country who have found it hard to cope with the big smoke?

Liam Jurrah, sitting in a cell with many members of his extended family, says yes.
For Zeph Skinner and many others, English is not their first language. Add that to weather, and a myriad of cultural complexities, you would have to say it's a bit tougher.

Most of Brendan Goddard's family are in jail.

It seems a bit ridiculous to be potting white kids for being Mummy's boy's but giving everyone else a leave pass. Especially when no one knows the real cultural background of any of them.
