AFL celebrates African Month, honouring new flow into the game

Since North Melbourne utility player Majak ((MAH-jahk)) Daw burst onto the scene several years ago, the AFL has watched a proliferation of young players of African descent make their mark on the game. Now, by celebrating the diversity of African migrants, the league says it hopes to create new pathways not just onto the field but across the community.
