Injured football players are seeking up to $1 billion in compensation from the AFL in a landmark class action over the "serious damage" caused by concussion.
The action, lodged by Margalit Injury Lawyers in Victoria's Supreme Court, is on behalf of all professional AFL players who sustained concussion-related injuries while playing or training between 1985 and March 14 this year.
More than 60 former players and family members of dead players have signed on.
