I've never seen a more pointless hill to die on over referring to the sport of Aussie Rules Football as AFL.

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
Let that be a lesson to you Port, no one beats the Bays five times in a row in a GF and gets away with it!!!
