AFL premiership star Cyril Rioli has lodged a statement of claim in the Federal Court against his former club Hawthorn, as he and others continue to pursue legal action over alleged racism. Rioli is the lead applicant alongside his wife Shannyn Ah Sam-Rioli, former players Carl Peterson and Jermaine Miller-Lewis, his partner Montanah-Rae Lewis, and Hawthorn’s former Indigenous liaison officer Leon Egan.
The documents were lodged before the deadline on Friday afternoon. “As we have done throughout this process, we will continue to work towards a resolution in a fair and timely manner for all parties,” Hawthorn president Andy Gowers said. “The Federal Court process will importantly give Hawthorn Football Club the opportunity to respond to these allegations. “Given the matter is now before the courts, it would be inappropriate to make any kind of comment that could impact on that process.
