Fan’s banner removed by SCG security during Sydney Swans’ AFLW win over Essendon
A fan’s banner was removed by SCG security during the Sydney Swans’ AFLW win over Essendon. Supporters turned out in large numbers for the AFLW-AFL double-header, coming ‘‘out in droves to send a message’’. One banner was taken down after ‘‘barely three minutes’’, limiting how long it was on display. 7NEWS Sport reported the incident amid strong crowds at the Sydney Cricket Ground for the double-header.
Downunder Voices perspective
Why this matters
The quick removal meant the fan message was visible for only a short time, reducing its reach among the large crowd at the double-header.
