A community group has lodged a formal complaint with Channel 9 over a segment on this weeks’ Footy Show featuring Shane Crawford.
According to the Australian Federation Of Ukrainian Organisations, Crawford — who was in costume for the sketch — made the “cardinal mistake” of misrepresenting “Ukrainian Cossack Bros as Russian”.
The group has demanded that an apology be aired on next week’s show.
