I believe that the AFL has to step in and put a complete stop to sledging .Just like they did with the way they stamped out racial abuse . If you stop all forms of sledging at the highest level it will filter down through the other competitions . Looking after groups of kids , coaching football i have found out that if you tell them now to respect their fellow teammates , then this will be how they act later on in their football life . You can still jump and yell and wave your arms , say things like chewy on ya boot etc , but there is know need to personally , racially , and religiously berate , abuse players . stop it on the field and you stop it in the crowd
Cheers
