If that's what I think it means, any other thoughts?Yarra Glen will have at least 1 change
I agree Monnie. A brave move on the the part of the kid involved, and YGFNC in supporting him. I hope he gets the same respect and support from all clubs and their supporters.My heart went out to the kid when I read it in the Age on the weekend.
I guess it raises the question of football and politics. Is football required to campaign on social justice issues?
That would polarise a few, I think.
Personally, I think there are dangers in politicising sport, but for too long that was a cop out for clubs.
If clubs are involved with their communities then they need to address and respond to community issues. Sport - and footy - doesn't live in a vacuum.
I commend YG on what appears to be a very supportive and principled stance.
I fear for the kid, though. I am sure he expects a backlash from the red-necked in our communities, but he would not have made his call if the club had not backed him.
He may well need that support - as well as from a good many of us in other clubs.

s**t! That wasn't intended to be posted on the forum! Sorry McC and others.I agree Monnie. A brave move on the the part of the kid involved, and YGFNC in supporting him. I hope he gets the same respect and support from all clubs and their supporters.
Watched my first game of yvmfl on Sunday.Was watching the 2nds game and a player from Seville grab a player from yarra and clocked him in the face.
Oh! That makes the violence alright then......Was retaliation to a cheap punch thrown in the pack, as always the retaliator got caught and it has now cost himself a spot in a grand final team which is going for 3 in a row
