        This has been happening since time immemorial. These North Africans are more racist towards the rest of Africa, especially black Africa, than any hardcore racist you can think of. They do this as a way of mentally draining you. @WorldRugby need to look into this.

        Disgusting and outrageous on the part of the Tunisia Rugby Union. It was completely intentional and they should not pretend otherwise. Shame on them!

        I wonder why we still put up with the nonsense with these Arabs. They always treat us Africans bad. They are not Africans and should be stopped from participating in Africans tournaments

        These Arabs are racists, thus why Morocco didn't get Southern African votes in their bid to host world cup

        It is simply racism. Arabs, even if they are Africans, have a long long way to go on this. Pathetic

        The hosts know the standards of accommodation for players. Hosts should be penalized.
