‘Outrageous’: Netball Australia rejects global ban of transgender athletes

[@alicerose6640]

Netball Australia should be shut down, I do not agree to my taxes being spent on the abuse of women and that's exactly what they are doing, by allowing men in the team. They are agenda activists and no longer relevant to most Aussies.

[@hopehoping]

Agreed!. No tax money to shoulder women out of sport!

[@sirderam1]

Simple. Australia should be excluded from all international netball tournaments until they come to their senses, which I suspect wouldn't take very long.

[@williamblack7813]

Yeah, and the evil Boofhead Porkie Teller 'Red Shirts' While never recalling Comrade Wuhan Dan funded this bunch of woke mind virus infected organization!

[@davidgraham6781]

What r the odds that the Aussie girls may decide to play for another country sometimes soon because of this woke looney nonsense?!? 🤔

[@williamblack7813]

I wonder why my comment about The Wuhan Porkie Teller 'Red Shirts' Never Recalling Dan propping up The Wokey Netball Association with $13,000,000 of Victorian (Danistanian) tax Dollars because Some wokey participant didn't want to receive sponsor ship money from Gina R.???? THIS IS AN EMPIRICAL FACT!!!

[@seddy69]

OMG - I'm a NZ'er and find the Ozzi womans netball games against the Kiwi girls really nail biting - i just love watching them But this position of trans genders in yr team is plain cheating. No ANZAC spirit there......

How will international netball teams take it when the Aussie netball team is loaded with failed male basketballers out for a few free trips abroad?

[@rosemaryconstable5620]

They won’t have to worry, it’s banned internationally therefore any Australian team playing internationally will have to abide by the rules when overseas or forfeit

[@robwealer5416]

Not sure what the hub bub is over. If the argument is true, the negative effects and pushing out of female athletes will be obvious at some point... if there's abuse of the rule, probably sooner than later. There's not a lot of money in netball (but there are scholarships) so you probably won't see guys filling out the paperwork in great numbers. It's like these guys might be worried none of their predictions will come to pass. Let the obvious disaster play itself out... Like the great buddhist master says, "We'll see".

They did not see what happened in Brisbane when an all male side destroyed a all female side in netball a few years back. Get enough transgered and they can have their netball team. I know a few of them today in Bondi who should be in dresses and may want to play netball.

[@YouReallyTypedThat]

Time that the majority of Australians (including the parents of young girls) grow a moral spine when it counts and defend the rights of their daughters and all real females. It can be done as demonstrated in October 2023 with regards the voice to parliament referendum, you have the power as the majority. When they vote in elections they need to ensure they vote for politicians with intelligence (they know what a woman is) and have a moral compass. When organisations such as Netball Australia do not reflect your views "do not support" them and divert your daughters to alternate sports whose organisations support the rights of girls.

All sponsorship should be stopped if they have this ridicules ruling. Start a transgender sport with their own sponsorship and see how many actually go and support the support. Netball Australia is out of touch and we only have to look at the USA where this is now a law suit against a body allowing transgender to strip in front of females which goes against their own laws if the country protecting women. Like many I won’t support netball Australia But as a male will continue to fight for the rights of women so they can have a sport that is fair not a weak person claiming to make when they fail at their own sport. Against their own gender. This is sickening and should be stopped if not why do women want to be athletics to have this all taken away by a trans person which is totally wrong
