Women’s Aussie rules football star Tayla Harris says she was “sexually abused” by online trolls making repulsive comments about a picture of the 21-year-old in action.
Photographer Michael Willson captured a particularly remarkable shot showing Harris in full swing having punted the ball at goal while playing for Carlton in an AFL women’s league game against the Western Bulldogs at the weekend.
The image was shared on social media by broadcaster the Seven Network, only to receive a torrent of abuse, much of which was sexual in nature.
