The CTE crisis the AFL doesn’t want you to know about | Four Corner Documentary

As the AFL pushes to bring more players into the game, a powerful Four Corners investigation reveals startling new evidence of brain disease in younger players. The AFL has set a target of one million registered participants by 2033, with women and children central to that growth. Reporter Jessica Halloran speaks to families devastated by the deaths of young footballers later diagnosed with CTE, a degenerative brain disease linked to repeated head trauma. Some parents say they were never warned about the disease.
