Amidst Giddey’s scandal, Andrews, a prominent figure in sports media, came under fire on Friday. Fans expressed a perception that she is swift to criticize specific players in times of trouble while giving others a pass.

However, this prominence comes with both positive and negative aspects, and currently, the negatives are taking the forefront. She is being held to a distinct standard compared to many other personalities.
The question arises: Will Andrews address the criticism surrounding the Giddey scandal, or will she choose to overlook it? She appears to be caught in a no-win situation. Whether she comments or stays silent, criticism awaits – a challenging predicament she finds herself in.
