No ... in the US it would be .. but the term as far as I am aware has never been used in a racist way in Australia... more over its been a favourable expression ie good on you son / boy / etc...
The reference is to one of the most iconic movies ever made in Australia ... if you can watch this movie and not shed a tear it is said you are not human... the movie is called """Storm Boy""' released in 1976 ... below is the full movie ... so Storm Roux in the flow of nicknames of the post .... must the same way as others have named Anderson... Chesty or Bond because of his likeness to the old ad run by Bonds...
Enjoy Storm Boy show your girl friend and bring a tissue box ... you will also be surprised who stars in this as it started and helped develop many fine Australian actors..
Again enjoy ...

Bert would be one of the lest racial people in Australia ... he used the term much like it was used within the Australian context... he failed to appreciate who he was talking to and where he was from...
A few years years ago a friend of mine a teacher at TAFE had to appear before a formal proceeding in a racial abuse case because he broke the class into different colours and her said to one girl she was in the red group which brought her to tears [not fake] and she started screaming .... in the town she came from in Eastern Europe the colour red stood for girls of the night and women of loose morals .. she believed by placing her in the red team he was saying she was a slut to everyone in the class.... months latter and after lots of investigations hand shakes and everyone understanding the other side it was all solved .. I mention this not to excuse but to say sometimes it can be hard as with Bert above he took a local saying and placed it in the wrong context...
However watch the movie as I said with a tissue box a lady and a glass of Hunter Red ... it starts a tad slow but IMO one of the best movies ever made in Australia ...
