The Fantasia one is a possibility but will cost the Crows a bit as he just signed for 2 more years and is rated very highly at Essendon

Hey @woodublieve12, I see Tippett has had a full ankle reconstruction and his manager has said he's going nowhere.

He only played nine matches in 2017, despite being one of the Swans’ highest paid players.
But his manager Peter Blucher moved yesterday afternoon to quash any rumours that Tippett could be on the move, telling NAB Trade Radio that his client would be staying put at Sydney.
“He won’t be moving anywhere, for sure,” Blucher said.

He's not moving anywhere because no one else wants him with his fragile body and inflated pay cheque.

guaranteed 'she' will be allowed to play, the AFL have shown how progressive they are already and how can they say no?

Yes I am aware of that... He rolled his ankle round 2 against the dogs, bit surprised they continued to play him...

I think people can identify as anything they like, me, I'm a 74 year old 15 foot 3 inch piece of fettuccine and I dare anyone to question me on that.

However, when it comes to gender then you're either born as a male or a female ( or if you're in the 1.7% of intersex ) and that should be the defining characteristic in such discussions. Take out personal views on how people wish to identify, you were born either male or female, it's that simple.

Then I guess the question of discrimination comes into it and I would then again fall back on what ones birth certificate states. Male/Female. Then there's no ambiguity, cultural or sociological forces at play.

The world has gone crazy, each to their own but using it for an advantage isn't good for the future, it will open up a massive can of worms.

I can't make the men's olympic basketball team, but if I swap genders I'll be a shoe in by the next olympics?

Problem lies when someone has actually transitioned. Like I believe this woman has.

If she has had the operation taken all the hormones and has been tested to be within female limits for testosterone, play on in my book.

That is probably the most reasoned response you're going to get on this topic.
