1/ It’s shameful that both Collingwood and the AFL have forced two Black women - Jodi Sizer and Tanya Hosch respectively - to front the media for the past week, instead of Eddie McGuire and Gillon McLachlan.
2/ Systemic issues start at the top. The people at the top need to front up and face the media, instead of getting others to take their hits. This is pathetic leadership and a clear case of cowardice.
3/ Jodi Sizer has only been at CFC for 2 years. Why should she have to answer for McGuire’s 20 years of failures, with respect to racism? These Black women should not have to answer for the incompetence & indifference of privileged white men with major institutional power.
