Footy Flu Shot & AFL Season Check Up

The People's Game

The bye rounds are coming but before they do, the citizen's of The People's Game are here to perform a health check on the AFL season so far... On the agenda this week: - Kasey discusses her European PhD tour (read: junket) - JB discusses Michael Wilson's photo of Simon Lethlean and Paddy McCartin - Kasey asks whether inviting trolls to heckle in person is a good idea? - Gordo summaries the key narratives that will play out in the second half of the AFL season - The People's Question is: "When it comes to Indigenous Round, is symbolism enough?" PLUS This week's edition of "Footy Book Club" has a 'fashion' bent - as we dive into the glossy pages of Stellar Mag to discuss Tayla Harris' cover story and the representation of female athletes in non-sporting environments.
