Opinion: ScoMo should be a no, no to work with Abdo | Peter_Fitz
by our former PM Scott Morrison to be one of the Commissioners on the Australian Rugby League Commission is . . . surprising on several counts.
Yup, I know, calling Mr Morrison a misogynist blustering bully is a bit on the unnecessarily unkind side of things. But the very skills, abilities, and “brand” if you will, that took Mr Morrison all the way to the Lodge, are hardly the ones the NRL and CEO Andrew Abdo need right now. In response, I am reminded of the Hollywood actor Matt Damon seeking to make the point in the face of everything emerging from the #MeToo movement that there were gradations when it came to the seriousness of sexual harassment and sexual assault, that some kinds are more grave than others.all
The whole thing – in the sense of the mix of fantastic and very ugly headlines at the same time – is just so very, very Kyrgios. “Hard to watch but also hard not to.”And speaking of difficult, gentlemen, bring it in tight. Very tight. Just us. An interesting issue arose this week in women’s sport that I had absolutely no clue about.
There is a certain symmetry, thus, in Cummins being the guest speaker at The Chappell Foundation’s Annual Dinner at the SCG on August 10 given that Lillee is one of the esteemed patrons of the foundation, which supports seven other frontline charities in ameliorating youth homelessness. TCF has raised $4 million in the past five years, despite the pandemic, for their charity partners’ work. If you’d like to attend, google and go-go.
