Women(?) Footie Australia $200,000 fine for calling out male player

I'd heard something about this a few days ago. A tweet by a tw on another thread that someone posted. He was gloating about this. I didn't recognise the name, Kirralee Smith, that he was mocking. I assumed she'd said something not genocidal but at least insulting. I should have known better

This is why I generally avoid Reduxx. The stuff they find is so batshit, and this one, by any reasonable metric is against all the rules of natural justice.

Eta I think Reduxx are amazing and doing important work. It's just so upsetting.

Oh FFS. These men are out injuring women players and it’s the woman who complains who is arrested ten times and may be required to pay them $200k for hurty feelz? Australia you are insane and I would like to nominate whichever idiot in the Police who sent five armed Police to arrest Graham Linehan for immediate citizenship.

No. This is not over hyped at all by Kirralee. It is absolutely batshit.

The Flying Fruit Bats won the tournament very recently I believe.

An Australian football team with multiple male players has won the Women’s Premier League in North West Sydney for the second year in a row, securing the title of 2025 Champions. The Flying Bats FC, a club described as being for “self-identified women and non-binary people”, defeated West Pennant Hills Cherrybrook FC (WPHC) 3–0 in the Grand Finals at Christie Park on August 31.

If I remember correctly, they have not lost a game all season.

This is Dennis as per Magdalen. I think she would have some great stuff to say about Dennis now.
