For the love of sport

There is not a sport I don't love, however, in the past few months there has been a considerable shadow cast over AFL from badly behaved players and now sadly a coach.
What astounds our sport loving household is the lack of responsibility taken from the hiearchy level yes we're talking Andrew Dimitriou and team.
From pathetic footy tv shows that portray a supposed joking element of alcoholic, drug addiction, abuse on women to name a few.
When will Andrew take his role responsibly and put an end to an embarrassment that can no longer be swept under the carpet?
Is it time to hire a women and if so, who would you suggest?
What are your thoughts??

In my family we really love all sports although rugby league is a winner.My son plays cricket and soccer and we go along and watch him play.

yes I agree with jonny. However, with the amount that sports stars receive nowadays the least we can expect is good footie and behaviour. Financial penalties of huge proportion is what they need

i believe that sports stars are setting a bad example for the younger generation with there behaviour, but on the other hand they are put under the spot light day in an day out and people do make mistakes, its just since there sports stars its made such a big deal of it.

What about his stoic and pig-headed behavious regarding the Football World Cup? When another code will benefit his code for generations after he is long gone, he still refuses to negotiate with any diplomacy.
