AFL: AFL CEO Andrew Dillon has voiced his support for the tribunal decisions despite recent controversy,
St Kilda coach Ross Lyon say it’s important to “challenge the behaviour” of young gun Lance Collard but he would also be well supported in the wake of his six-match suspension for using homophobic slurs .
His suspension came just two weeks after St Kilda’s annual Pride Game against Sydney, an initiative the club has been involved in since 2017. “Always support and challenge the behaviour,” Lyon said before Thursday’s training session.“The powers that be have done their thing … but we certainly take the feedback.“I can just talk about a young Indigenous player out of Perth, a vernacular, I think you’ve got to look to intent and maliciousness.Collard’s suspension was the third for an AFL player this season for homophobic slurs and AFL chief executive Andrew Dillon on Wednesday denied the league had a problem with homophobia.
