Considering I had never heard of the phase woke in this context until this arvo then its relation to AFL it was hard to find a relation to players and the term. A few over looked would be indigenous players such as Adam Goodes way more woke than many.Josho wrote:I reckon that bloke was a bit more confused rather than woke. :thumbsup:rb85 wrote:No it was a reference to his social awareness.
