since 2015, while the Indigenous All Stars clash, which was established in 2010, has only been held once in New Zealand.“There are loads of examples of inequity out there, but for me, this week is once again an example of the people who run the game only giving respect to the people that play the game in their country,” Kemp told SENZ Breakfast.“This week is Indigenous Round, an opportunity to support the very people who are, in this country, holding the game together.
“What is the meaning of Indigenous? It’s inhabiting or existing in a land from the earliest times,” Kemp explained. “You’ve got this recognition there but for some reason, they keep leaving the Warriors out, they keep leaving New Zealand out in the dark. A statement released by the NRL to launch Indigenous Round failed to mention anything about New Zealand, with Australian Rugby League Commission Chairman, Peter V’landys saying: “NRL Indigenous Round is a truly special week in our calendar. Our first nations communities have incredibly deep bonds with rugby league and are part of our fabric at all levels of the game, from grassroots participants and fans to the Indigenous stars who light up the NRL and NRLW.
