In physical strength or personality? (Note, whichever answer you give is the wrong one.)

Mate I am used to dealing with that conundrum!

You have to laugh at how the media operates these days. Particularly the footy media.

Create a story where these isn't one, in this case based on a vague answer to a question (THE AFLM is coming !!!!!).

Media comments on that non story.

People (all the better if it is someone half famous - or else  just quote twitter) then comment on those comments.

Rinse and repeat. 

Here's an example. 

https://www.news.com.au/sport/afl/embarrassing-and-unprofessional-jeff-kennett-launches-strong-criticism-of-afl-after-aflm-clarification/news-story/3ffd880bb08c39ed1b7b8d6957bf560d

Slobbo has also commentated on the AFLM mania in the same rag.

Fair dinkum the world is getting dumber.

Interestingly  ABC news had a completely different spin on the story, which was how long it took Nicole Livingston  to answer the question not a critique of Hocking or god forbid any serious consideration of i becoming AFLM. In fact the article makes it clear it is not going to happen.

By the by for context here is the actual question and response:

The AFL CEO is the biggest 'politically correct' lefty going around, so I wouldn't be surprised to see this come about under his reign

Maybe we will eventually have all these politically correct woke competitions:

LAFL

GAFL

TAFL

BAFL

IAFL

 

Mmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

No

Tennis has led the way with womens sport and never added a M to the men's tour.

Calm your farm! it's like the media want to polarise people and incite sexism


surely not but funny to see the responses, some people get so upset by this type of stuff!

  • POSTGAME: Collingwood

    Despite effectively playing against four extra opponents, the Dees controlled much of the match. However, their inaccuracy in front of goal and inability to convert dominance in clearances and inside 50s ultimately cost them dearly, falling to a heartbreaking one-point loss on King’s Birthday.

  • GAMEDAY: Collingwood

    It's Game Day and the Demons face a monumental task as they take on the top-of-the-table Magpies in one of the biggest games on the Dees calendar: the King's Birthday Big Freeze MND match. Can the Demons defy the odds and claim a massive scalp to keep their finals hopes alive?

  • CASEY: Collingwood

    It was freezing cold at Mission Whitten Stadium where only the brave came out in the rain to watch a game that turned out to be as miserable as the weather.
    The Casey Demons secured their third consecutive victory, earning the four premiership points and credit for defeating a highly regarded Collingwood side, but achieved little else. Apart perhaps from setting the scene for Monday’s big game at the MCG and the Ice Challenge that precedes it.
    Neither team showcased significant skill in the bleak and greasy conditions, at a location that was far from either’s home territory. Even the field umpires forgot where they were and experienced a challenging evening, but no further comment is necessary.
