This is one of those things you can use to do a quick test of whether you have a functioning brain or not.
If you get mad or offended by such an iconic moment being immortalised then you are a total moron whose ability to think deeply is akin to a puddle.

Any Tom, Rick, Harry or Sally can kick a football. She's noone special
That isn't the point and you know it. There is a video out there of footy players and 'personalities' trying to do that kick with that elevation and only Dangerfield got close.

This has been a prime example of why political discourse is such a shit show, majority of people havent said anything about being against a female statue being dedicated to inspire females and bring attention to womens sports, they've had a problem with this token statue when people more deserving haven't had a look in. People clap like seals but can't see this is an advertisement grab with no sincerity towards the goal, if you want real change don't support crap like this and call it out for what it is.

Imagine getting a statue because someone took a good photo of you kicking a ball.
I would be embarrassed to be Taylor.

Yeah. Someone made a statue of an iconic photo.

If this really makes you outraged you’ve got serious issues.

Looking forward to seeing the actual finished product.
When the SCG Trust commissioned a bronze statue of a spectator, was it condescending to men?
Please, I'm too busy being outraged to be bothered with spurious attempts to 'bring me down' with petty and irrelevant off topic debates over inconsequential sentences amongst dozens of posts made regarding a broader topic.
So please, pretty please with a cherry on top - move the **** along.
At this stage its nothing more than a statue. Which ever way you look at it, making it into something it's not is sooo hot right now and people will do as people will do!
The real story will be when we find out where its forever home is.
If the AFL are serious they will put it outside the MCG or somewhere it can make a bold statement. My guess is it will end up at The Zillmere Eagles Football Club.

Christ is there a group of people more perpetually offended or sensitive than conservative men of a certain (any) age?
Every single ****-ing thing is a culture war. A nice little gesture like this and it's straight to talk back.
It's art. It sends a message. It doesn't have to subscribe to the fanciful meritocracy that only exists within your head. There's a reason conservatives rarely make art, you have to think laterally for just a second.

Why?
It's a statue of a woman playing footy.
Let me guess....is this a white dude telling chicks they've set back the movement by 20 years again?
spot the mentally disturbed leftist.
Its just Art.... why are people getting their knickers in a twist? An Artist was inspired to create something from something they saw and then made it....
It's not a commissioned piece going up next to other great AFL statues outside the MCG.
Everyone needs to calm down.

Now that it exists, it makes sense to be somewhere within the MCG sporting precinct.
Behind the Cricketers Arms Hotel next to the dumpster hahaha
Anyone who starts a thread having a complete boomer about "left-wingers" and "do gooders" isn't asking for insightful contributions.
She's done nothing to warrant one.
Make one for Cathy Freeman, Sally Pearson.... heck even Serena Williams deserves one over an "athlete" who hasn't yet achieved anything.
Until aliens come to invade, the human race will forever find something to fight over!
Pick a side and grab your weapon of choice because crying about it won't change a ****ing thing!
This will be the next 'scandal', I give it a week tops

I thought the photograph was already art? It's not art; it's solid virtue signalling by NAB.
