“…Тим пре, јер је у последњих десетак година фудбал постао најмасовнији спорт у тој земљи, односно организована спортска активност која има највише регистрованих учесника у свим узрасним и обе полне категорије; однос према фудбалу конструисан је на линији унутрашње ентокултурне диверсификације аустралијског друштва, дакле, из перспективе становништва англосаксонског порекла (в.

“…Треба имати у виду и то да је предуслов формирања такве лиге била деетницизација фудбалских клубова, њихово установљење као франшиза, слично клубовима у америчком професионалном спорту и прекид било какве њихове везе са различитим етничким заједницама Аустралије (упор.

Anthropological interest in football has been on the rise since the beginning of the century, which can be attested to by the rising number of studies, papers, collective publications and scientific conferences on the topic. Seeing as anthropology is no longer the study of the culturally bizarre and exotic, it is clear that the first anthropological studies of football as a cultural phenomenon are linked to those environments in which football figures as an important cultural trait, which is the reason why this sub discipline thrived in Europe or in places where football was treated as an esoteric phenomenon and where there as a longer tradition of anthropological study of native cultures. From the first analogies between the game of football and its rules with rituals of so called primitive cultures, the anthropological study of football developed into a relatively encompassing approach which includes interest in all the actors who establish the game as a public, cultural good – players, experts, supporters, journalists, organizers etc. – as well as its various cultural manifestations, in the form of a tool for the construction of identity and cultural symbol, a leisure activity with ties to economy, to a specific apotheosis of the concepts of globalization and commodification of culture. Anthropological studies of football are present in Serbia as well, and their subject matter corresponds to the role and position held by football, as a cultural artefact, in Serbian society and other countries in the region.

“… 1. The Western Sydney Context: The Giants were created and, to a large extent, imposed on a region that had little history of Australian football. It is historically associated with rugby league and is considered to be a heartland of the sport (Rosenberg, 2009). The move to introduce a second team in Sydney was greeted with some hostility by those who feel that AFL has no place in New South Wales (NSW) (Parry, 2013).…”

Racial folklore, black masculinities and the reproduction of dominant racial ideologies: The case of Israel Folau

This article examines the continued presence of racial folklore and the reproduction of dominant racial ideologies as presented by the media and fan interactions. The case of Israel (Izzy) Folau’s time at the Greater Western Sydney Giants Australian football club is presented, utilising an analysis of the club’s email communications, media coverage and discussions by sports fans on online message boards. The analysis identifies the significance of the player’s racialised body in constructions of masculinity and the extent to which it plays a role in the acceptance (or not) of an athlete. The article concludes that the narratives that are constructed around athletes are fluid and often change over time or in response to sporting performances or other external influences such as a change of team.
