I've never seen a more pointless hill to die on over referring to the sport of Aussie Rules Football as AFL.
We all know what they mean, so why care?

I wish would stop using the incorrect or at best colloquial term for our sport: "Aussie Rules" or "Australian Rules"
The law book gives the correct title of our sport: Australian Football

Which means the incident occurred during a Pemberton
League match of
Australian
Football... AFL match.
Report is correct.
