The Players acknowledges they have read the AFL Rules that relate to the conduct of players and will at all times comply with these rules and any reasonable direction given by the Club.

The Players will not engage in any conduct, on or off the field, which places other participants of AFL at risk of injury or death and/or which is in the opinion of the Club, is considered to be unreasonable, or unsportsmanlike behaviour.

The determination of whether a Player’s conduct places, or placed other persons at risk of injury or death, and/or which is or was unreasonable or unsportsmanlike behaviour, is solely at the discretion of the Club, and the Player agrees to be bound by that determination.

3. Waiver of Claims

The Player hereby waives, releases, and forever discharges the Club, its committee, volunteers, sponsors and any other representatives from any and all claims, action, or causes of action arising out of or in connection with any injury, loss of possessions, or other damages sustained by the Player as a result of participation in AFL activities.

5. Use of Name and Image

The Player grants the Club the irrevocable right to use the Player's name, image, and likeness in any media, including but not limited to photographs, videos, and promotional materials, without compensation. The Player acknowledges that such use may include, but is not limited to, publication in print, broadcast, and online media for promotional, advertising, and other business purposes.
