Just over a quarter – 25.6% – of players drafted to AFL clubs in 2017 came from the 11 schools who make up the Associated Public Schools of Victoria, which also supplied four of the first five picked. The “no room for racism” crowd, many of whom have paternalistically positioned themselves as the knowers and tellers, also refuse to acknowledge the structural role that wealth, whiteness and the private school system plays for prospective draftees – who year after year, continue to dominate the draft. Like clockwork, the “no room for racism” crowd chants “stop living in the past, everyone makes mistakes, it’s time to move on”, just in time for the merry-go-round to complete another lap, only to then be propelled forward by more of the same stuff. The AFL would not be in partnership with Coles, which has energetically promoted its Liquorland stores in the Northern Territory against the wishes of many Indigenous organisations, which represent communities with the highest rates of alcohol consumption in the country.īecause fairness, justice and proportionality is defined and measured by those who don’t bear the brunt of racism, bigotry at an individual and institutional level is often met with a slap on the wrist and red-carpet ride into another prominent role within the industry. If there was “no room for racism”, then the league would not be so closely connected to Telstra, considering the telecommunications company was recently ordered to pay $50m in penalties after admitting it took advantage of vulnerable Indigenous customers by signing them up to mobile phone contracts they did not understand or could afford.

Not even the homelands that have birthed the Rioli football dynasty of Maurice, Cyril, Daniel, Dean, Willie and Maurice Jr, who as a collective have brought more joy to the game than any other family, is off limits. Port Adelaide wouldn’t be in partnership with Santos, whose offshore Barossa Project – described by gas economist Bruce Robertson as a “carbon dioxide factory with an LNG by-product” and by Richie Merzian of the Australia Institute as “one of the dirtiest gas fields in Australia” – is the subject of legal action by Traditional Owners from the Tiwi Islands who are seeking to stop the development. Nor would the West Coast Eagles and AFLW be in partnership with BHP, another multinational that destroys ancient Aboriginal cultural heritage and has exercised gag clauses that render Traditional Owners unable to lodge objections or to prevent their sacred sites from being damaged. If there really was “no room for racism”, then Fremantle would not be in partnership with Woodside. Living within the lands, seas and skies, Murujuga holds the Lore, Dreaming and Songlines that have connected and sustained the region’s First Nations people since the first sunrise. Woodside’s proposed Burrup Hub LNG expansion is threatening Murujuga, a priceless cultural treasure on Western Australia’s Burrup Peninsula which archives more than 50,000 years of human ingenuity. Without a shred of self-awareness, the Dockers have stood in solidarity with Walters and Frederick under the backdrop of a long-standing partnership with Woodside, Australia’s largest independent dedicated oil and gas company.
