Whakarāpopototia te tuhinga:  Kua whiua a Jacques Potgieter o Awherika ki te Tonga mō tana kōrero whakahawea ki ngā tāngata ōrite i te wā o tētahi kēmu Super Rugby i Ahitereiria. I kii te Union Rugby o Ahitereiria kua whakawhiwhia e ratou he 20,000 taara Ahitereiria (£ 10,450), me te 10,000 taara i whakamutua, i runga i te taha o Potgieter whai muri i tetahi aitua i te tukinga o te Ratapu i waenga i nga Waratahs me Brumbies i Sydney. I kii te ARU i whakaae a Waratahs ki a Potgieter ki te whakaputa korero "he rereke ki te kaupapa here whakauru a te Rugby Union o Ahitereiria", i hangaia hei whakakore i nga momo whakahāwea me te homo i roto i te whutupaoro. Kua whiua a Jacques Potgieter mō ngā kōrero whakahāwea i te wā o tētahi kēmu Super Rugby i Ahitereiria. Ka whakaekehia a Potgieter i te whakataetae Super Rugby i waenga i nga Waratahs me nga Brumbies. Ko te whiu a Potgieter e pā ana ki te takahi i te waehere whanonga ARU, e aukati ana i nga korero homophobic me te whakahāwea. I kii te Tumuaki o te ARU a Bill Pulver: 'Ka whakaarohia e maatau te take o te homophobia i roto i te hakinakina me te hiahia ki te whakarato i tetahi taiao pai mo nga tangata katoa e uru ana ki te whutupaoro. Kāore e taea te manawanui ki ngā kōrero o tēnei momo. 'Ko tā mātou kaupapa here whakaurunga e whakapakari ana i te pono o te Rugby o Ahitereiria ki te whakarite kia noho haumaru, kia manakohia, kia whakaurua hoki ia tangata - ahakoa he kaitākaro, he kaitautoko, he kaiako, he kaiwhakahaere rānei, ahakoa he iwi, he ira tangata, he ira tangata rānei. "E hiahia ana ahau ki te whakahīhī anō, kāore rawa he wāhi mō te homophobia, mō tētahi momo whakahāwea rānei i roto i tō mātou kēmu, ā, me whakaatu e ō mātou mahi me ngā kupu i runga, i waho hoki o te papa". I kii te ARU ko te Potgieter 28-tau-tau ka hiahiatia kia whai whakangungu matauranga me te mohio. I whiua a Potgieter i muri i tētahi tūtukitanga i te tukinga o te Rātapu i waenganui i ngā Waratahs me ngā Brumbies i Hītini.
