Palmer plays down Goodes booing row

Outspoken MP Clive Palmer says people shouldn't make too much of crowds booing Sydney Swans star Adam Goodes.
The Palmer United Party leader told ABC TV that when Goodes wore the Swans' jersey it was natural for fans from another club to boo him.
Goodes is on indefinite leave from the AFL following persistent vilification by opposing fans over several weeks and missed Sydney's 52-point clobbering of the Crows at the SCG on Saturday.
