Eddie Betts says his wife has been in tears this week after he was racially abused in connection with Showdown 42.<\/h3>\n

SCROLL DOWN FOR VIDEO<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s been a tough week,\u201d Eddie told FIVEAA\u2019s David and Will on Thursday.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt affects me but it affects people around me more,\u201d he said. \u201cMy wife Anna, she was very upset with it this week, just the hatred of it. She was teary.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cOur kids are indigenous and they\u2019ll have to grow up with this stuff as well.\u201d<\/p>\n

Port Adelaide and the Adelaide Crows united this week to stand against racism, and Eddie said he\u2019d also been in touch with AFL boss Gil McLachlan.<\/p>\n

\u201cHe gave me a call three days ago before he did that press conference.\u201d<\/p>\n

But Eddie\u2019s not letting the storm distracted from Adelaide\u2019s clash this week with Essendon.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019ve got a job to do this week,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019ll go out there and be myself. I\u2019ve just got to continue being my self, being my up, bubbly, smiley self and just keep doing that.\u201d<\/p>\n
