Lol once again the fans show what they think of non whites.
West Coast Eagles star Liam Ryan targeted with another racist attack
The ugly trend of AFL players being targeted by racist trolls struck again as West Coast and the league united to shame the abhorrent abuse.

I don't think this is a fair poll, because it should include the correct option. All sports have the issue of racism present. No sport is more racist than another.

It's not just Australia, i would say the AFL are the most racist sporting organisation in the known world as well as the unknown world. In all likelihood there probably the reason why aliens are yet to make contact with us.
If you were flying around out there in space, monitoring the Hawthorn football club, would you in all honesty attempt to make contact?
I know most of Melbourians are Greenies, but how do you think they would react to little green men?

Here's an excerpt from an article about this year's GF by a university professor of sport management. He strangely talks up the game but then drops some ugly truth bombs:
"But it was a colonial project. Indigenous people were often not welcomed to the sport in its development phase, and at the gameās elite level were all but absent until the last quarter of the 20th century."
Interesting......it was a 'colonial project'.....and 'Indigenous......were often not welcome.....were all but absent..."
Nothing has changed. It's still a colonial game that treats it's indigenous players like cattle. Despicable game! Despicable people!

I would say you are wrong. Racism is just as prevalent in other sports and in society in general.

Maybe on planet head up your arse .
But in the real world no sport has the racism problem that fumbleball does .
& the above post is why the problem is not addressed or ignored
The stupid fans defend defend defend. Try to downplay or say itās just as bad in all sports
Well how come these other sports donāt have anywhere near the same amount of problems or anywhere near as serious as these allegations .

Now that Bunnings flag day is over & the spotlight will get shone on Racistball about these allegations I suspect the AFL will go full boar on sweeping under the carpet/ glossing over/burying /this story .
The usual Southern Mafia tricks to make problems go away
Not the massive racism problem but the we canāt let these stories damage the brand problem .
Hopefully the Indigenous folk stay strong & canāt be bought or bullied or silenced .

Just to highlight the lengths this corrupt mob will go to to protect the image .
This story is from a few yrs ago
You could swap the treatment of women content for the treatment of indigenous & itās the same .
How fumble fans can argue that other sports are as bad is beyond bizarre .
Dustin Martin saga: Richmond, AFL House protect star, sell out victim of violence
December 11, 2015 1:21pm
Rita PanahiHerald Sun
NO matter how strongly the AFL promotes itself as a standard bearer of decency and virtue, when it comes to the crunch the league invariably chooses brand protection over integrity.
The league has again demonstrated just how hopelessly out of step it is with community standards in its handling of the Dustin Martin saga.
The Richmond starās threats of violence against a terrified woman have been well documented, what has not been reported until now is the lengths the Richmond Football Club and AFL House went to in order to manage the victim known as Tracey.
Dustin Martin trains at Punt Road oval today. Picture: Ellen Smith
On Monday morning after Tracey first reported that sheād been threatened with being stabbed with a chopstick, it seems that Richmondās primary concern was not the victim but damage control.
According to sources close to the investigation, Richmond was keen to contain the story, fearful that the allegation would leak to the media.
The club ordered Martin to phone the victim personally and apologise, one could hypothesise in the hopes that would shut her up.
According to one source a Richmond officer said to the victim āthere must be a better way to deal with it than through the mediaā.
The club then briefed an accommodating journalist only too happy to reveal not only the name of Traceyās employer but also her specific role within that organisation.
To identify a victim of violence in such a manner is beyond the pale. It not only needlessly traumatises them but is likely to dissuade other victims from coming forward.
One would have hoped we moved past the ugly old days when victims were intimidated into withdrawing complaints or blamed for the aggressorās actions with a compliant media happy to spin a story to protect āthe gameā.
Once the case was in the public domain and it was clear that more significant action would be required the victim was visited on her own turf, by a seemingly empathetic integrity officer from the AFL along with a representative from Richmond.
But at that meeting, the victim was given the impression the offence was not viewed as a criminal one.
Then when they presented to the victim her statement from the meeting it is understood she was very unhappy about several āfalsificationsā that played down the extent of her terror and the seriousness of Martinās actions.
One AFL officer has since been accused by those close to the victim of essentially monstering her; lambasting her for leaking and talking to the media and repeatedly questioning her evidence saying there were contrary views about how far away Martin stood while he threatened to stab her and what he said.
They insisted that she come to AFL House to give a statement.
At that meeting the AFL representatives were said to be rude.
Tracey was questioned about whether she was sure she wanted to proceed with her claim that Martin threatened to stab her with a chopstick, and warned that if she did they would have to refer it to police and it could potentially end his career.
She was also warned that he could be charged with offences carrying jail time of 10 years. They then reiterated the warnings, giving the victim the impression that they wanted her to water down her complaint.
At no point was the victim encouraged to bring someone with her for support or legal advice.
When the AFL eventually referred the matter to police they did not bother to advise Tracey that they had done so.
On social media an AFL staffer used his private twitter account to release the information instead of the AFLā s official account which has more than 500,000 followers.
But the most shameful conduct, apart from Martinās alleged explosion of violence, was to come on Thursday evening when the AFL actively briefed the media against the victim once the case was out of its hands.
One of the investigators who had been the most aggressive towards her told her āweāve washed our hands of thisāā.
How is it that these investigators, who are well credentialed former police officers on significant salaries, could be so ham-fisted in their handling of the case?
An integrity officer is charged with protecting the integrity of the investigation but their chief concern appears to have been to protect the image of the game.
At best the handling of this matter has been incompetent, at worst it has been malicious in intimidating a traumatised victim.
The investigatorsā insistence that the offences were minor coupled with pressure exerted on the victim to water down her allegation, with claims that it could land Martin in jail, are utterly unscrupulous.
As soon as the allegations were made why wasnāt it determined that it was a criminal matter that should be immediately referred to police?
Why did the league and the club spend four days needlessly distressing the victim and potentially contaminating the case before they eventually referred it to police?
The policeās performance on this issue, has been almost as woeful.
Why could they not have put in a call to the AFL at the outset, when it was surely clear a potential criminal offence had been committed.
Why did it need the Herald Sun to yesterday point out in its newspaper editorial that police could open an investigation despite not receiving a formal complaint?
It was only after that editorial, and after the Herald Sun online revealed the victim had belatedly been advised that threatening to stab or kill is a criminal offence, that the police got involved.
Also, Richmond being allowed to investigate the matter alongside the AFL, who would later assess if the club acted appropriately, is reminiscent of the ASADA fiasco and shows the AFL has learnt little from that saga.
The AFL may pride itself on being a leading light in changing community attitudes towards women but though it talks a good game about respect and responsibility it fails to live up to even the lowest of expectations.
The culture of cover ups and intimidation has seen the league sell out a victim of violence in a vain attempt to protect the brand.

Every sport in Australia is racist. Its just that AFL is clearly the most popular so it gets the most attention regarding it.

At least the AFL admits & try's to get better with racism. Rugby & Rugby League just put their head in the sand over it.
