The AFL's Concussion Conundrum: A Crisis of Trust and Accountability The Australian Football League (AFL) is grappling with a scandal that has left many questioning its commitment to player health and safety.
At the center of the controversy is the Geelong Football Club, which allowed premiership player Jake Kolodjashnij to sign a waiver releasing himself from liability for future on field head injuries without seeking league approval.
The fallout has sparked calls for AFL chairman Craig Drummond's resignation, but Andrew Dillon, the league's chief executive, remains steadfast in his support for Drummond.
