How not to get publicity

As great as Australian Rules Football is to watch, you wou.d think it would be more popular than it is. One can point to several factors including incompetent public relations.

In the latest debacle, the AFL decided to release the Round One schedule. During the 2020 season the AFL had to release three weeks at a time because of the WuFlu restrictions. Since then the AFL has decided to drop the schedule a few weeks at a time.

What made this release a debacle was the timing. Some genius decided the release should occur at the same time the Socceroos kicked off their World Cup playoff match against Argentina. This was a feature, not a bug. This guy should be terminated and I don’t mean fired.
