AFL forget what it’s all about

Here’s an idea AFL.

Stop bringing politics into sport.

If I want politics I’ll access it through the media.  When I watch football, I just want to watch football.  I don’t want to get involved in whatever indigenous activism is cool this week.  I don’t care if the players are black, white or brindle.  They are just good athletes and a joy to watch.  Or they were until you brought in racism.

Apparently this week is Multicultural Round.  There you go again – it’s supposed to be about football, nothing more, nothing less.

Let me know when you get the message and I’ll start watching again

Oh, and another thing – threatening Aussies with dire treatment if they boo Sooky la la Goodes tonight will most probably guarantee more booing.
