\u201cI think it\u2019s worse because of social media — you can hide behind it,\u201d Eddie told FIVEAA Breakfast on Tuesday. \u201cNo one knows who you are and all you have to do is write some comments because no one is going to find you. They\u2019re not going to say it to you face-to-face.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cIt\u2019s got to stop. It\u2019s happening too much lately. Look at Majak Daw he\u2019s just got racially abused on social media, the AFL Instagram page.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt happened to me last week. Even Charlie Cameron sent me a photo and he\u2019s had it to him as well.<\/p>\n
\u201cThis is disappointing in a way just coming from the indigenous camp with all the indigenous players in the AFL and that\u2019s probably why I was kind of on the front foot and said enough is enough, it\u2019s happening too much.<\/p>\n
\u201cI just want to stand up for what I believe in and that\u2019s my culture and my people. Racism\u2019s got to stop.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n
