I note the club blurb accompanying the new AFLW Pride jumper. "Designed by members of the AFLW playing group in consultation with the Bulldog Pride supporter group, the guernsey reflects the transgender flag with the traditional red, white and blue hoops swapped out for pastel blue, white and pink."

However, I am surprised at the choice of theme. A couple of years ago the AFL were absolutely determined to prevent transwoman Hannah Mouncey becoming an AFLW player. Surely this reeks of hypocrisy, nothing new for the AFL.

If, by chance there is a transgender woman playing in the AFLW, I think she would do well to keep her mouth shut. That is if she wishes to continue to play.
