The battle for a healthy football culture

July 10, 2009 Posted by: Bishop John

I recently attended a charity function featuring a panel of football enthusiasts. Two ‘heavies’ of AFL football made totally disparaging remarks: one of paying ‘hush money’ to women allegedly victims of sexual assault by players and one of telling a disparaging race ‘joke’. One of the comments has been picked up by the media, Outrage at Elliott’s claims of hush cash, the other comment has not. Thank you Catharine Lumby and to all those working for cultures of health.
