University Research on Racism in the AFL

[Mav]

Same here. I’ve been sitting in the AFL Members area of the MCG, usually on the top deck, and the top deck of Docklands. I’d imagine if you wanted to have a go at a non-white player or umpire, you’d want to be close to the ground on the terraces. If you want to call out racist sledges from the top deck loud enough to be heard on the ground, you’re going to attract unwanted attention. That’s the only concern I have about the survey. I also answered that I couldn’t recall any racist comments but I doubt whether that’s evidence the AFL hasn’t got a problem in that regard.
