Come to Rotto, pat a White.
Two weeks after a surfer had his arm “destroyed” by a Great White at Crescent Head and two months after another surfer was killed by a Great White at Tuncurry, a surfer has been knocked off his board by a ten-foot White at Chickens, a reef ledge a couple of bays east of Strickos, site of the WSL’s tour event in May.
The man, unidentified so far although with that sorta story he’ll be appearing shortly, you’d think, on some sorta tabloid television program, was belted by the White around 12:30 on Monday.
According to authorities, he was not injured and managed to “safely swim ashore.”
Now, it ain’t clear whether swim ashore means he left his board in the mouth of the White and fled or he was bumped, regathered equipment and paddled like hell.
Around the same time an eight-foot bull shark was spotted near the Narrow’s Bridge, way up the Swan River and pretty little Leighton Beach was being patrolled by a shark.
It’s been a quiet year for shark attacks in Western Australia, howevs, unlike last year where three men were killed including surfer Andrew Sharpe, who was disappeared by a Great White.
A local surfer said he was taken “almost whole. The body is just fucking gone.”
The Great White has been protected in Australian waters since 1999.
Anecdotal evidence suggests numbers have bounced back nicely.
Beaches reopen in a few hours.
I think you meant White instead of Woke!
HA , yeah self education doesn’t exist in your world , then again education seems to missing from your avatar….Why TF would you pick the name of a well known Irish paedophile?…..and yeah love sharks , love seeing them in the water with me , as there’s less people whingeing like you in the water…..I see sharks as a kind of natural deterrent to those fear filled people who complain about dangers in the Ocean……I mean don’t get vaccinated please , because you might get hurt ,LOL!
I challenge your OK Golden Eagle with my Tasmanian Wedge-Tail Eagle fight!
Save the fuzzy bunny rabbits from both the Fox and eagle!
I just saw a fox this morning.
Wish they’d nuke the lot of em to fucken smithereens. Not the prevailing sentiment among ocean lovers and do-gooders the world over, I know. And quite in contravention to my support of Greenpeace, the Sea Shepherd, and the Surfrider Foundation over the years, but my patience has finally been fucken eradicated by these predatory cunts.
Every time I come back to these pages another cunt’s been chewed up. All at places I’ve surfed my life over. Greenmount, Crescent, Ballina, Byron, Bondi, Port, Coffs. Cunts are fucking like rabbits and feeding like rats.
I’ve got two little kids just entering the age of entering the water. And fuck me if I have to sit there and chew my fingers down to my petrified, hairy knuckles every time they paddle out. Not praying for them to get a good wave, just praying they come back whole. Not what I envisioned when I told my kids about the ocean.
Nuke the cunts, leave maybe one male and one female, call em Adam and Eve. Offer a Scomo like shrug of the shoulders and announce a mea culpa, then enjoy the waters for the next few decades while Adam and Eve rebuild.

Everything is for the good of the future. And the kids. Moving forward and all that.
An alternative is to set up a live PPV event across every city where sharks dwell, then recreate the recent Poopies scene. Contestants who make the jump advance to next round. Contestants who don’t get devoured on live TV. On it goes til we have a winner in each state, who then compete in a global jump off.
The sharks get fed, but eventually die coz they’re infected by the dumbness they’ve ingested; the world is rid of a few dumb cunts; and the eventual winner gets a one on one with a Coffey sister. Or Nathan Florence.
well sounds like your kids won’t be surfing , that’s why you now can become a poolie……
Fuck I hate the truth when it hurts coz it’s the truth. Thank fuck I live in Japan….
Too busy taking it turns with his mates flying drones so they can spot jaws in time to get out the water before a ‘bite’ incident takes place.
just wondering what’s your solution to the increase in sharks on the East Coast ……yeah I love sharks , because people like you are shit scared of them , they are a natural crowd enforcer….seen lotsa whites while in the water…..just so you learn something, when I see one….I get out of the water ….but I do live in area that doesn’t have many juveniles , so lifes great…especially if you are white!
Great Whites…Fark
Hey Brutus, Great White Sharks appear mostly on American currency. I’m recently swinging thru Latin America and am so impressed by both the waterproofness and distinct lack of slaveholders on their legal tender.
Don’t go to Cartagena, Colombia. There was this guy who was complicit in the slave trade who got made a saint. You can even see his body in this weird glass coffin thingy.
Not yours.
They’ve lived their for 60 trillion years!!
The official language to describe such events is collision. The surfer was in a collision with a great white. Knocked off implies that it was the sharks intent to cause harm (maybe even BITE) which of course is completely incorrect and such incident would never be perpetrated by a white.
Holy ####. The PC wokeness now applies to freaking sharks as well?! When does it end?! What is the shark’s preferred pronoun? He/him/ze?
Get a freaking life.
I should have prefaced – read my comment with a large dose of sarcasm.
Fucking what!? Are we allowed to use sarcasm here again?..who makes these rules?
Artful Edgar…
Ahhh…went right over my head. Apologies, sir.
Sadly, my missing your sarcasm is testament to how f’d up things have become these days with what people will say or believe.
Preferences range from dear God to holy shit sometimes just Jesus or maaate!
PC wokeness is bullshit for sure but there is defo a difference between calling something an attack or a bite when it comes to sharks. The word attack implies aggressive intent. It’s the difference between saying someone was ‘hit by a car’ or someone was ‘run down by the driver’. It’s just very bloody unfortunate for us that sharks are curious and all their senses are through pores around their mouth, so their way of touching/smelling is to bite. They defo attack us sometimes too, but most of the time it’s just a curiosity bite and we’re just soft squishy cunts who bleed like fuck. If it was all just actual attacks no-one would ever survive.
You must have missed the previous shark article about using the term “attack” to describe shark encounters.
Nope. Saw it. It’s ridiculous.
An unprovoked shark attack is just that….an attack. It’s physical, unsolicited and injurious.
One side is obsessed with changing mere “words” every few years because they’ve magically become dated or discriminatory according to them.
And then, in a few years they’ll change those same words they just implemented for the same (insane) reason.
Meanwhile getting nothing of actual importance accomplished in the world.
Just saw that the original poster was in fact being sarcastic.
Sad thing is, there are so many morons who would say and firmly believe such a statement today…it’s hard to tell the difference any more….
In all fairness, it is just you that looks like the moron in this situation.
Not really. But feel free to fuck off, asshole.
