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

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.
