    How come Megan can refer to herself as "a woman of colour" but Clarke can't use the phrase "coloured players"?

    Confusing, isn't it? They talk about black voters in USA all the time. Is that ok? I'm genuinely confused about what's the norm and acceptable and what isn't.

    I've wondered about the 'person of colour' v 'coloured person' thing too. I'm presuming it's to do with the apartheid link to the use of the word 'coloured'.
