The Indigenous All-Stars made a heart-warming gesture to bullying victim Quaden Bayles tonight. ❤️️❤️️❤️️ 9WWOS NRLAllStars
Nine-year-old bullying victim Quaden Bayles has continued to warm hearts around the world by leading out the Indigenous All-Stars for their NRL All-Stars clash.
Bayles, who rose to prominence during the week after a video of him crying after being bullied went viral, entered the ground holding the hand of Indigenous All-Stars skipper Joel Thompson. The youngster entered Cbus Super Stadium while holding the game ball, which he ultimately presented to match referee before posing for a photo with Thompson and Maori All-Stars captain Adam Blair.
Prior to the match, the NRL Indigenous All Stars reached out to Bayles and his family, asking the young boy to come and spend time with the team."Just wanted to wish you all the best brother. We know you're going through a hard time right now but the boys are here and we've got your back," Latrell Mitchell said in a message to Bayles earlier in the week.
"We're here to support you and we just want to make sure you're alright and we want you around and we want you to lead us out on the weekend.
