Re: AFLW - Contracted or uncontracted?

Just as aside, Ive been following Darcy Vescio on socials. She would do very well to leave the anti man hating bias out of her arguments. On sunday she made a rather unsavoury comment that causes division between the genders with respect to search results on google with respect to AFL w. Some men dont like AFLW. Not all men. Dont lump us all in the same category, particularly when the AFL have already guaranteed the AFLW will suffer no adverse affects from the current state of play, and everyone else is left up in the air with respect to their future.
We may see AFL mens list reduced to keep costs down, and players WILL be cutting a haircut in AFL mens. Not so for AFL W. I am cognisent they have a way to go, but this was a really poor form comment given the current state of play.
I do understand her target audience for that, was to try and build up females self esteem, but there are ways to do it without rubbishing the men of the world in the process. You risk alienating them and standing on your own.
