Given the rise in support for One Nation, here's a really interesting piece of forgotten Australian history.
From the 1930s to 1986, there was an Aussie Rules football competition called the Young Chinese League.
Over around 50 years, the YCL was based out of Albert Park in Melbourne, but held games all over Melbourne and Victoria.
The history is the focus of a new film that will debut at the Melbourne International Film Festival, titled Carn the Chinese!
