ABOUT THE CASE

Margalit Injury Lawyers has filed a class action in the Supreme Court of Victoria against the Australian Football League (AFL, formerly VFL) on behalf of Aboriginal and/or Torres Strait Islander persons who, from May 1980 to date, were VFL/AFL players that experienced physical and/or verbal racist abuse whilst participating in the AFL Competition. The claim is also brought on behalf of relatives of those players.

It has been alleged that (amongst other things) the AFL failed to enforce and implement rules and policies to prohibit racial vilification. It is also alleged that the AFL permitted racial vilification to occur without punishment or penalty and failed to provide a safe (including a culturally safe) environment.
