Absolutely, let's take a look 27 00:01:29,440 --> 00:01:35,839 Speaker 1: around the grounds. In football, what a weekend Saturday nights. 28 00:01:36,080 --> 00:01:40,039 Speaker 1: Matilda's win over France indepenalty shootout will be one of 29 00:01:40,080 --> 00:01:43,240 Speaker 1: those moments that we will honestly remember, like it's that 30 00:01:43,360 --> 00:01:45,840 Speaker 1: moment of where were you when Courtney Vine? 31 00:01:45,880 --> 00:01:46,680 Speaker 2: Where were your friend? 32 00:01:47,040 --> 00:01:49,880 Speaker 1: I just got home. So we played a practice match 33 00:01:49,880 --> 00:01:52,480 Speaker 1: for the Giants in Adelaide. I paid for Wi Fi 34 00:01:52,480 --> 00:01:54,400 Speaker 1: on the plane to watch the first half. Then all 35 00:01:54,440 --> 00:01:57,080 Speaker 1: my teammates stood around the baggage carousel for the start 36 00:01:57,120 --> 00:02:01,240 Speaker 1: of the second half. I drove home. My teammate Tany 37 00:02:01,920 --> 00:02:03,840 Speaker 1: had it on the phone while I drove and she 38 00:02:03,920 --> 00:02:06,080 Speaker 1: was watching and I was listening to the commentary. Then 39 00:02:06,080 --> 00:02:09,040 Speaker 1: we got home, watched the extra time and watched the 40 00:02:09,040 --> 00:02:11,280 Speaker 1: penalties on the couch. It was the best moment ever. 41 00:02:11,520 --> 00:02:12,920 Speaker 1: It was I knew where were you? 42 00:02:13,080 --> 00:02:15,640 Speaker 2: I was in my laund room. I find that we 43 00:02:15,720 --> 00:02:18,120 Speaker 2: had a couple of friends over. I find it gained big, 44 00:02:18,160 --> 00:02:21,799 Speaker 2: big games like this. I'm not great in public, that's 45 00:02:21,840 --> 00:02:24,200 Speaker 2: fair enough. There's a lot of emotions, as a lot 46 00:02:24,280 --> 00:02:27,560 Speaker 2: of emotion. I need to be able to cry and private. 47 00:02:28,040 --> 00:02:30,880 Speaker 1: Yeah, I think that's fair. So we kind of just 48 00:02:30,919 --> 00:02:33,280 Speaker 1: covered that. But it obviously ended nil all and then 49 00:02:33,320 --> 00:02:35,440 Speaker 1: extra time ended nil all, so we went to penalties 50 00:02:35,440 --> 00:02:38,680 Speaker 1: and Courtney Vine got the job done. The French was 51 00:02:38,680 --> 00:02:40,920 Speaker 1: strong in the first half, but the injection of Sam 52 00:02:41,000 --> 00:02:44,400 Speaker 1: Kerr after fifty five minutes was the spark the Tillies needed. 53 00:02:45,400 --> 00:02:49,600 Speaker 1: And with fifty thousand raucus Aussie fans screaming for the 54 00:02:49,680 --> 00:02:52,240 Speaker 1: legends in Gold, a goal looked moments away but it 55 00:02:52,480 --> 00:02:55,280 Speaker 1: never eventuated. We just kept building and building and building, 56 00:02:55,320 --> 00:02:56,600 Speaker 1: but we just could not convert. 57 00:02:57,440 --> 00:02:59,840 Speaker 2: Like I'm again jumping ahead here, but I just feel 58 00:02:59,880 --> 00:03:03,560 Speaker 2: like Mary Fowler went so close so often, and you 59 00:03:03,560 --> 00:03:05,680 Speaker 2: know when you actually when you say the words out loud. 60 00:03:05,720 --> 00:03:08,080 Speaker 2: Sam Kerr hasn't scored yet at the World Cup. Obviously 61 00:03:08,080 --> 00:03:10,200 Speaker 2: she hasn't played a lot. But I've just got a 62 00:03:10,240 --> 00:03:12,520 Speaker 2: real feeling that we're going to get m Fowler and 63 00:03:12,720 --> 00:03:15,040 Speaker 2: Eskerr on the score sheet. 64 00:03:14,919 --> 00:03:18,840 Speaker 1: Doad Wednesday against England. Oh heard first, I love that. 65 00:03:20,000 --> 00:03:23,760 Speaker 1: How do we even break those penalty shootouts down? Mackenzie 66 00:03:23,880 --> 00:03:27,200 Speaker 1: Arnold the brick wall, we were on board the Swedish 67 00:03:27,200 --> 00:03:31,040 Speaker 1: brick wall, but I'm sorry, we are back by our 68 00:03:31,080 --> 00:03:32,560 Speaker 1: own We've got our own brickwall. 69 00:03:32,639 --> 00:03:34,120 Speaker 2: We built one. It's there. 70 00:03:34,800 --> 00:03:37,960 Speaker 1: She was just exceptional, wasn't she. Yeah, the ability to 71 00:03:38,320 --> 00:03:40,560 Speaker 1: and obviously we know, like we're a penalty shootout, the 72 00:03:40,600 --> 00:03:43,400 Speaker 1: pressure is on the kicker more so than the goalie. 73 00:03:43,560 --> 00:03:45,840 Speaker 2: I don't know about that. Like I know everyone says that, 74 00:03:45,880 --> 00:03:48,920 Speaker 2: but if I'm the goalie, I'm not walking up to 75 00:03:48,960 --> 00:03:51,080 Speaker 2: stand between the sticks and go oh it's. 76 00:03:50,960 --> 00:03:54,960 Speaker 1: Okay, No way. She didn't exactly like I. 77 00:03:54,920 --> 00:03:56,560 Speaker 2: Think, I reckon that's a bit of a cop out. 78 00:03:57,200 --> 00:03:59,000 Speaker 2: I think the pressures on both of them. You're the 79 00:03:59,040 --> 00:03:59,960 Speaker 2: two women in the arena. 80 00:04:00,520 --> 00:04:06,520 Speaker 1: Yeah, okay, I'll take that all right. Fine. So eventually, 81 00:04:06,640 --> 00:04:09,680 Speaker 1: as we said, Cornyvine stepped up. So we won seven 82 00:04:09,960 --> 00:04:14,160 Speaker 1: six in penalty shootouts, qualified for our first ever World 83 00:04:14,160 --> 00:04:15,000 Speaker 1: Cup semi final. 84 00:04:15,440 --> 00:04:18,520 Speaker 2: Can we talk about how long it lasted? I wonder 85 00:04:18,600 --> 00:04:21,280 Speaker 2: I felt ill it lasted for seventeen minutes. 86 00:04:21,640 --> 00:04:24,360 Speaker 1: Well, it was the longest penalty shootouts in the history 87 00:04:24,360 --> 00:04:25,040 Speaker 1: of the World Cup. 88 00:04:25,120 --> 00:04:28,200 Speaker 2: Twenty spot kicks twenty one if you count the retaking 89 00:04:28,200 --> 00:04:29,120 Speaker 2: one from Kenza. 90 00:04:28,880 --> 00:04:32,120 Speaker 1: Dali, which Arnold saved twice twice, and. 91 00:04:32,200 --> 00:04:34,720 Speaker 2: I yelled at the television screen, She'll go the same way, 92 00:04:35,120 --> 00:04:36,320 Speaker 2: and guess what, she went the same way. 93 00:04:36,400 --> 00:04:36,880 Speaker 1: I picked it. 94 00:04:36,960 --> 00:04:37,400 Speaker 2: Definitely. 95 00:04:37,440 --> 00:04:40,400 Speaker 1: You were in an e now, Arnold said after the 96 00:04:40,440 --> 00:04:42,720 Speaker 1: match when she was awarded Player over the Match, very 97 00:04:42,760 --> 00:04:45,800 Speaker 1: well deserved. I'm still processing this. I think it might 98 00:04:45,839 --> 00:04:47,920 Speaker 1: take me a couple of days. We have a quick turnaround, 99 00:04:48,000 --> 00:04:50,600 Speaker 1: so I have to figure it out quite soon. Unreal. 100 00:04:50,839 --> 00:04:53,200 Speaker 1: I'm speechless right now. I could have won the game 101 00:04:53,200 --> 00:04:55,599 Speaker 1: for the girls, but they rallied around me and kept 102 00:04:55,600 --> 00:04:56,960 Speaker 1: me in it. At the end of the day, it 103 00:04:57,000 --> 00:04:58,680 Speaker 1: is my job to keep the ball out of the net, 104 00:04:58,720 --> 00:05:01,479 Speaker 1: and thankfully I could do that. Honestly, we all do 105 00:05:01,560 --> 00:05:04,400 Speaker 1: it for each other. They had my back one hundred percent. 106 00:05:04,960 --> 00:05:09,320 Speaker 2: I think that was probably the most reflecting on the match. 107 00:05:09,440 --> 00:05:13,200 Speaker 2: We had to go straight from well, watch the celebrations, 108 00:05:14,200 --> 00:05:18,040 Speaker 2: watch the baggers. Watched the end of the England Columbia 109 00:05:18,120 --> 00:05:20,880 Speaker 2: match the next morning. I woke up and watched the 110 00:05:20,880 --> 00:05:23,520 Speaker 2: penalty shootout again, and I think that that was the 111 00:05:23,520 --> 00:05:26,039 Speaker 2: biggest thing for me is that Mackenzie Hanold had the 112 00:05:26,120 --> 00:05:29,400 Speaker 2: chance to end it at three all she had a 113 00:05:29,440 --> 00:05:32,040 Speaker 2: shot and it would have been game over, and she 114 00:05:33,240 --> 00:05:34,360 Speaker 2: whacked it into the post. 115 00:05:34,839 --> 00:05:37,120 Speaker 1: It looked like a great shot. Yeah, I reckon. She 116 00:05:37,200 --> 00:05:38,320 Speaker 1: just faded away a little bit. 117 00:05:38,720 --> 00:05:41,680 Speaker 2: And then I think after that cursed actually said she 118 00:05:41,680 --> 00:05:43,720 Speaker 2: because she's fuilthy now she's going to save everything. 119 00:05:44,279 --> 00:05:46,480 Speaker 1: I was like, oh, so she actually used it as 120 00:05:46,839 --> 00:05:47,880 Speaker 1: fuel a bit of anger. 121 00:05:48,040 --> 00:05:48,839 Speaker 2: Looked like it, I reckon. 122 00:05:48,839 --> 00:05:50,479 Speaker 1: I like that, Yeah, I like it. 123 00:05:50,960 --> 00:05:53,800 Speaker 2: She took the disappointment and turned it into a positive. 124 00:05:54,960 --> 00:05:57,440 Speaker 1: I love what head coach Tony Gustaves and said. 125 00:05:57,640 --> 00:05:59,800 Speaker 2: I just love Tony Gastafs and like, I know that 126 00:05:59,839 --> 00:06:03,119 Speaker 2: we're all the big kind of juries out. The jury 127 00:06:03,200 --> 00:06:06,720 Speaker 2: is in. He cries a lot, he loves them. I'm 128 00:06:06,760 --> 00:06:07,680 Speaker 2: here for him, he said. 129 00:06:07,720 --> 00:06:10,880 Speaker 1: I genuinely really believe this team can create history in 130 00:06:11,000 --> 00:06:14,200 Speaker 1: so many ways, not just winning football games, but the 131 00:06:14,200 --> 00:06:16,680 Speaker 1: way that they can inspire the next generation, how they 132 00:06:16,680 --> 00:06:19,080 Speaker 1: can unite a nation, how they can leave a legacy 133 00:06:19,120 --> 00:06:21,719 Speaker 1: that is much bigger than ninety minutes of football or 134 00:06:21,720 --> 00:06:25,640 Speaker 1: two hours? Oh goodness me, what two hours and seventeen minutes? 135 00:06:26,200 --> 00:06:28,719 Speaker 1: How they can unite a nation? How they can no, 136 00:06:29,160 --> 00:06:31,640 Speaker 1: I've read it again. I think that is also why 137 00:06:31,720 --> 00:06:33,520 Speaker 1: I believe in them so much, because this is so 138 00:06:33,640 --> 00:06:36,520 Speaker 1: much bigger than just football. That internal drive as a 139 00:06:36,600 --> 00:06:39,200 Speaker 1: human being, whether it's an individual or group, that is 140 00:06:39,240 --> 00:06:42,080 Speaker 1: a powerful tool that's very difficult to stop. And I've 141 00:06:42,120 --> 00:06:44,839 Speaker 1: since that from day one working with this team. That's 142 00:06:44,880 --> 00:06:46,680 Speaker 1: what gets them to where they are today. 143 00:06:47,520 --> 00:06:50,520 Speaker 2: Love that the match broke all sorts of viewing records, 144 00:06:51,200 --> 00:06:53,000 Speaker 2: and I get the feeling it might only last a 145 00:06:53,040 --> 00:06:53,799 Speaker 2: few days. 146 00:06:54,320 --> 00:06:56,800 Speaker 1: Wednesday Night Primetime, here we go. Well. 147 00:06:56,839 --> 00:07:01,000 Speaker 2: Also, I think Saturday Night obviously lends itself five o'clock kickoff. 148 00:07:01,040 --> 00:07:03,640 Speaker 2: There were so many people at live sites, in pubs, 149 00:07:04,320 --> 00:07:08,640 Speaker 2: in other people's laund rooms. When you do, it's quite it. 150 00:07:09,120 --> 00:07:11,280 Speaker 2: I don't I don't pretend to even understand how the 151 00:07:11,360 --> 00:07:15,040 Speaker 2: rating system works, but I believe they survey a certain 152 00:07:15,040 --> 00:07:18,240 Speaker 2: amount of people, or it's weird anyway. 153 00:07:17,920 --> 00:07:19,360 Speaker 1: I don't know. I don't know why you're looking at me. 154 00:07:20,080 --> 00:07:23,640 Speaker 2: You know everything? You just wrote a book. Doesn't that 155 00:07:23,680 --> 00:07:24,560 Speaker 2: mean you know everything? 156 00:07:24,880 --> 00:07:25,679 Speaker 1: Surely? Yeah? 157 00:07:25,720 --> 00:07:29,320 Speaker 2: Anyway, I don't pretend to understand it, but I reckon Wednesday, 158 00:07:29,320 --> 00:07:33,200 Speaker 2: like you said, Wednesday night at home, a lot less people. 159 00:07:33,240 --> 00:07:34,480 Speaker 1: In per couch sitting. 160 00:07:34,600 --> 00:07:38,280 Speaker 2: Yeah. So. Seven West Media reported it an estimated average 161 00:07:38,320 --> 00:07:40,640 Speaker 2: audience during the game of four point one seven million, 162 00:07:41,120 --> 00:07:43,160 Speaker 2: and a further four hundred and seventy two thousand viewers 163 00:07:43,160 --> 00:07:45,920 Speaker 2: watch the game on seven streaming platform seven Plus, making 164 00:07:45,920 --> 00:07:48,200 Speaker 2: it the biggest streaming event ever seen in Australia. 165 00:07:48,840 --> 00:07:49,400 Speaker 1: Insane? 166 00:07:49,920 --> 00:07:51,720 Speaker 2: Could I think a lot of the streaming was happening 167 00:07:51,800 --> 00:07:52,880 Speaker 2: at weddings and. 168 00:07:53,720 --> 00:07:55,920 Speaker 1: I saw so many wedding videos of people with their 169 00:07:55,960 --> 00:07:56,600 Speaker 1: phones out. 170 00:07:56,440 --> 00:07:58,320 Speaker 2: At sporting events and all sorts of places. 171 00:07:58,400 --> 00:07:58,840 Speaker 1: So good. 172 00:07:59,080 --> 00:08:02,520 Speaker 2: According to Bilimmary, non adjusted figures from the ratings agency 173 00:08:02,600 --> 00:08:05,040 Speaker 2: oz Tam. I believe the adjusted figures will come out 174 00:08:05,240 --> 00:08:08,480 Speaker 2: today Tuesday. The game peaked at four point four to 175 00:08:08,480 --> 00:08:11,080 Speaker 2: three million viewers on broadcast. But these numbers, again, like 176 00:08:11,120 --> 00:08:14,160 Speaker 2: we said, don't include the opt to streaming numbers, or 177 00:08:14,200 --> 00:08:16,280 Speaker 2: as we said, the thousands of people at life sits 178 00:08:16,280 --> 00:08:19,200 Speaker 2: in pubs, in rowdy lound rooms of friends. The numbers, 179 00:08:20,000 --> 00:08:22,240 Speaker 2: like we said, we'll be confirmedily sweet, but it's safe 180 00:08:22,240 --> 00:08:24,280 Speaker 2: to say that, like with looking at those numbers you're 181 00:08:24,320 --> 00:08:27,720 Speaker 2: talking at least a third of the country was watching 182 00:08:27,760 --> 00:08:28,040 Speaker 2: the game. 183 00:08:28,080 --> 00:08:32,360 Speaker 1: I reckon mind blowing more. Yeah, I think so too so. 184 00:08:32,480 --> 00:08:34,560 Speaker 2: In the other quarter final on Saturday, England had to 185 00:08:34,640 --> 00:08:38,480 Speaker 2: come from one zip down against Columbia, with Lauren hamp 186 00:08:38,640 --> 00:08:40,520 Speaker 2: netting a scrappy gold deep in stop each time of 187 00:08:40,600 --> 00:08:42,920 Speaker 2: the first half, to go into halftime at one all, 188 00:08:43,520 --> 00:08:46,520 Speaker 2: and just after the hour Alessia Rosso in short England 189 00:08:46,520 --> 00:08:48,319 Speaker 2: booked a date in the semis when she clipped the 190 00:08:48,320 --> 00:08:52,120 Speaker 2: ball between the legs of keeper Daniella Arias. The match 191 00:08:52,120 --> 00:08:54,400 Speaker 2: finished to to one and the prize for the victory 192 00:08:54,559 --> 00:08:56,679 Speaker 2: is a semi final against the home heroes. That Tillies 193 00:08:57,360 --> 00:09:00,600 Speaker 2: England will be without Lauren. James think it's probably been 194 00:09:00,640 --> 00:09:03,720 Speaker 2: their best player in their pool stages. For the semi finals. 195 00:09:03,760 --> 00:09:06,440 Speaker 2: She received a two match suspension after picking up a 196 00:09:06,440 --> 00:09:09,559 Speaker 2: red card in the quarters for standing on I shouldn't laugh. 197 00:09:09,400 --> 00:09:11,920 Speaker 1: But it was. It was a brain explosion. 198 00:09:12,120 --> 00:09:13,800 Speaker 2: I was gonna say it. It was quite bizarre, like 199 00:09:14,760 --> 00:09:19,040 Speaker 2: she was frustrated. Yeah, yeah, so she stood on Michelle Alozi. 200 00:09:19,480 --> 00:09:23,120 Speaker 2: England manager Serena Wagman, who is Dutch? I love this? 201 00:09:23,240 --> 00:09:23,640 Speaker 1: Do I mean? 202 00:09:23,679 --> 00:09:28,400 Speaker 2: It's fakeman, could be vakeman. So Serena, we'll call it. Serena. 203 00:09:29,480 --> 00:09:31,560 Speaker 2: The English manager, who is Dutch, said she will have 204 00:09:31,559 --> 00:09:33,280 Speaker 2: to lean on her players to get grips on the 205 00:09:33,320 --> 00:09:37,079 Speaker 2: English Aussie rivalry, saying after the match, I think it's 206 00:09:37,120 --> 00:09:38,680 Speaker 2: going to be really big. Now I've had a couple 207 00:09:38,679 --> 00:09:40,320 Speaker 2: of questions about it. It's probably going to be bigger 208 00:09:40,320 --> 00:09:42,720 Speaker 2: than I imagined. Amazing, So I'll talk to my players 209 00:09:42,760 --> 00:09:45,480 Speaker 2: and stuff and see what the rivalry is. I think 210 00:09:45,480 --> 00:09:47,679 Speaker 2: the English and Australia can get along. We've really enjoyed 211 00:09:47,679 --> 00:09:50,000 Speaker 2: our time here, but that doesn't mean there's no rivalry. 212 00:09:50,040 --> 00:09:51,320 Speaker 2: So we'll see that on Wednesday. 213 00:09:51,440 --> 00:09:53,520 Speaker 1: Serena, there is definitely a rivalry. 214 00:09:53,720 --> 00:09:54,680 Speaker 2: Colonizers. 215 00:09:55,000 --> 00:09:59,199 Speaker 1: There will be history made this week as there will 216 00:09:59,200 --> 00:10:01,720 Speaker 1: be a team winning the World Cup for the first time. England, 217 00:10:01,760 --> 00:10:03,920 Speaker 1: Spain and Australia have all yet to reach a World 218 00:10:03,960 --> 00:10:07,000 Speaker 1: Cup final. Isn't that insane? No good? The competitiveness of 219 00:10:07,040 --> 00:10:10,080 Speaker 1: this World Cup has been outstanding and the performances from 220 00:10:10,240 --> 00:10:14,480 Speaker 1: every nation at the tournament has exceeded expectations. The country 221 00:10:14,600 --> 00:10:17,360 Speaker 1: is in the midst of Tillies fever. There are live 222 00:10:17,400 --> 00:10:20,480 Speaker 1: sites and big screens. As you said, bears everywhere there's 223 00:10:20,480 --> 00:10:24,520 Speaker 1: a competition about is there going to be a well, firstly, 224 00:10:24,520 --> 00:10:27,440 Speaker 1: there's a competition about who can do the biggest life site. 225 00:10:27,559 --> 00:10:29,520 Speaker 2: Seriously, the state's premiers are having a real crack up. 226 00:10:29,600 --> 00:10:31,800 Speaker 1: Yeah they are, which you know what, I rate it. 227 00:10:32,000 --> 00:10:34,480 Speaker 1: I don't care if they're turning it into a political competition. 228 00:10:34,679 --> 00:10:37,120 Speaker 1: I couldn't care less because more people watching the tillies, 229 00:10:37,160 --> 00:10:39,520 Speaker 1: the better, I say, more better. What do you think 230 00:10:39,800 --> 00:10:41,440 Speaker 1: about the public holiday proposal? 231 00:10:41,880 --> 00:10:44,360 Speaker 2: I think it's a lot of noise about something that 232 00:10:44,880 --> 00:10:49,000 Speaker 2: is unnecessary. I'm torn between any noises good noise about 233 00:10:49,000 --> 00:10:52,840 Speaker 2: female sport versus instead of a public holiday that does 234 00:10:52,960 --> 00:10:54,720 Speaker 2: actually cost the economy a fev bit of money, how 235 00:10:54,720 --> 00:10:56,760 Speaker 2: about you start funding female athletes better. 236 00:10:57,000 --> 00:10:59,280 Speaker 1: Oh I love that, Like it's yeah. 237 00:10:59,760 --> 00:11:03,120 Speaker 2: I think we're actually I think part of this amazing 238 00:11:03,240 --> 00:11:05,719 Speaker 2: event that's happening right now and all the eyes on 239 00:11:06,480 --> 00:11:09,040 Speaker 2: the Matilda's I think part of that is again it's 240 00:11:09,080 --> 00:11:10,520 Speaker 2: a shift for all of us that have been in 241 00:11:10,880 --> 00:11:13,280 Speaker 2: and around female spaught for a long time to start saying, 242 00:11:13,280 --> 00:11:16,640 Speaker 2: all right, so we need to again change our mindset 243 00:11:16,679 --> 00:11:20,680 Speaker 2: from oh that's great, thank you to we need more.

Did 260 00:12:15,320 --> 00:12:18,720 Speaker 2: you notice when they were celebrating? Interesting, No one. 261 00:12:18,760 --> 00:12:21,000 Speaker 1: That dat shines through, doesn't it. Like with Canada, I 262 00:12:21,040 --> 00:12:22,920 Speaker 1: think when there's been issues over a long period of 263 00:12:22,920 --> 00:12:24,360 Speaker 1: time that eventually surfaces. 264 00:12:24,440 --> 00:12:26,440 Speaker 2: In those moments where you've got to find something else, 265 00:12:26,880 --> 00:12:30,040 Speaker 2: any bit of negativity can creep in. Yeah, I'm also too, 266 00:12:30,280 --> 00:12:33,240 Speaker 2: I'm going Sam Ker Mary Fowler goalscorers and can we 267 00:12:33,280 --> 00:12:35,679 Speaker 2: please just not go to penalties? My heart can't take that. 268 00:12:35,840 --> 00:12:39,800 Speaker 2: I can't in cycling. That was a long chat about football. 269 00:12:39,800 --> 00:12:42,200 Speaker 2: But here we are. Why not just be half an 270 00:12:42,200 --> 00:12:45,480 Speaker 2: hour about footballer to be honest, but we're going to 271 00:12:45,559 --> 00:12:48,320 Speaker 2: talk about some cycling. There's been a World Championships in Glasgow. 272 00:12:48,679 --> 00:12:50,560 Speaker 2: They've come to a close and the Aussies have had 273 00:12:50,920 --> 00:12:53,800 Speaker 2: a really successful time on the pushies. 274 00:12:54,080 --> 00:12:55,440 Speaker 1: They've done a great job. 275 00:12:55,640 --> 00:12:58,880 Speaker 2: Felicity Wilson Haffendon executed the right of her life to 276 00:12:58,880 --> 00:13:01,720 Speaker 2: win the Junior Women's Time Trail on Thursday. She claimed 277 00:13:01,720 --> 00:13:04,320 Speaker 2: the Rainbow jersey on a tough thirteen point four kilometer 278 00:13:04,440 --> 00:13:07,320 Speaker 2: course that finished with a really tough final one kilometer 279 00:13:07,840 --> 00:13:09,880 Speaker 2: on cobbles up to Stirling Castle. 280 00:13:10,559 --> 00:13:13,560 Speaker 1: That sounds very uncomfortable. 281 00:13:13,880 --> 00:13:15,920 Speaker 2: Look on your face, like. 282 00:13:17,880 --> 00:13:20,360 Speaker 1: When I started picturing a really sore bum. 283 00:13:20,520 --> 00:13:22,920 Speaker 2: Sure, Oh, I don't know how they do it. She 284 00:13:23,000 --> 00:13:24,800 Speaker 2: posted the fastest time of the day with an average 285 00:13:24,800 --> 00:13:27,440 Speaker 2: speed of forty one and a half kilometers and then 286 00:13:27,559 --> 00:13:29,319 Speaker 2: had to wait in the hot seat for thirty four 287 00:13:29,400 --> 00:13:30,839 Speaker 2: riders to finish after her. 288 00:13:31,360 --> 00:13:34,440 Speaker 1: That's I reckon that. Well, it's not the same level 289 00:13:34,520 --> 00:13:36,679 Speaker 1: of pressure as a penalty shooter, but I reckon that 290 00:13:36,720 --> 00:13:39,240 Speaker 1: goes close that feeling of having to wait and wait 291 00:13:39,240 --> 00:13:40,040 Speaker 1: and wait. 292 00:13:40,080 --> 00:13:42,480 Speaker 2: Yeah, and just watching and waiting, like you said, waiting 293 00:13:42,480 --> 00:13:46,040 Speaker 2: to be beaten horriored. None of the riders matched the 294 00:13:46,040 --> 00:13:48,959 Speaker 2: speed of Wilson Haafnon and she was over the moon afterwards, 295 00:13:48,960 --> 00:13:51,000 Speaker 2: saying it felt good and it felt bloody hard, but 296 00:13:51,040 --> 00:13:53,320 Speaker 2: I knew I put out the best performance I had 297 00:13:53,600 --> 00:13:55,240 Speaker 2: and at the end of the day, that's what I 298 00:13:55,240 --> 00:13:57,160 Speaker 2: should be proud of. I knew I had to leave 299 00:13:57,280 --> 00:13:59,040 Speaker 2: enough of the final. I controlled it as much as 300 00:13:59,080 --> 00:14:00,720 Speaker 2: I could, and on the way back I had to 301 00:14:00,760 --> 00:14:03,400 Speaker 2: go for it a few breaths before the hill. Then 302 00:14:03,440 --> 00:14:05,680 Speaker 2: it was one kilometer of full gas. 303 00:14:05,800 --> 00:14:06,079 Speaker 1: Yuck. 304 00:14:06,920 --> 00:14:09,360 Speaker 2: It was pure pain. But when there's a World Championship 305 00:14:09,400 --> 00:14:11,559 Speaker 2: jersey at the end, it's all worth it. She ended 306 00:14:11,640 --> 00:14:14,520 Speaker 2: up finishing sixteen point five nine seconds ahead of silver 307 00:14:14,600 --> 00:14:16,200 Speaker 2: medalist British writer Isabel Sharp. 308 00:14:16,240 --> 00:14:17,400 Speaker 1: What's a solid gap, isn't it? 309 00:14:17,440 --> 00:14:17,840 Speaker 2: Dominant? 310 00:14:17,920 --> 00:14:18,840 Speaker 1: Yeah? Cool? Well. 311 00:14:19,200 --> 00:14:21,640 Speaker 2: Lauren Parker won gold in the women's H three individual 312 00:14:21,680 --> 00:14:25,680 Speaker 2: time trial at her debut World Champs. She also blew 313 00:14:25,680 --> 00:14:29,040 Speaker 2: the field away, winning but over a minute he absolutely 314 00:14:29,640 --> 00:14:31,680 Speaker 2: killed them. And set after the race. It's so good. 315 00:14:31,760 --> 00:14:33,160 Speaker 2: I'm just happy I was able to get out there 316 00:14:33,200 --> 00:14:35,360 Speaker 2: and produce the race I was hoping to produce. I 317 00:14:35,360 --> 00:14:37,160 Speaker 2: had a great result and I'm just really happy to 318 00:14:37,160 --> 00:14:39,200 Speaker 2: finally become a paracycling world champion. 319 00:14:39,600 --> 00:14:43,520 Speaker 1: Know, we've seen Lauren Parker absolutely dominate in the Hawaiian 320 00:14:43,680 --> 00:14:47,160 Speaker 1: Iron Man. She's just a beast of an athlete. Is 321 00:14:47,720 --> 00:14:50,400 Speaker 1: Amanda Reid? One gold on the track in the women's 322 00:14:50,600 --> 00:14:53,240 Speaker 1: Sea two five hundred meter time trial. Reid had set 323 00:14:53,280 --> 00:14:55,320 Speaker 1: a new world record earlier in the day, and the 324 00:14:55,400 --> 00:14:59,520 Speaker 1: victory was her fourth consecutive women see two five hundred 325 00:14:59,560 --> 00:15:03,280 Speaker 1: meter time and her fifth since twenty seventeen. That's a 326 00:15:03,280 --> 00:15:05,400 Speaker 1: bit of dominance for you, isn't it? Sure is. She 327 00:15:05,480 --> 00:15:08,320 Speaker 1: capped off a stunning World Championship campaign with silver and 328 00:15:08,360 --> 00:15:11,320 Speaker 1: the women's C two scratch race, which ensured she won 329 00:15:11,360 --> 00:15:15,760 Speaker 1: the rainbow jersey in C two omnium scratch race and 330 00:15:15,840 --> 00:15:18,080 Speaker 1: omnium bez. For those who don't know. 331 00:15:18,560 --> 00:15:23,000 Speaker 2: Pass, look, I have an idea. 332 00:15:23,280 --> 00:15:26,000 Speaker 1: Just try give it a crack now. 333 00:15:26,040 --> 00:15:27,760 Speaker 2: Look, I've been making it up, okay. I think an 334 00:15:27,800 --> 00:15:31,440 Speaker 2: omnium is a point score situation that you win after 335 00:15:31,480 --> 00:15:33,040 Speaker 2: scratch races. 336 00:15:33,240 --> 00:15:35,480 Speaker 1: Well, I feel like the scratch race is related in 337 00:15:35,520 --> 00:15:36,880 Speaker 1: some capacity. 338 00:15:36,480 --> 00:15:39,120 Speaker 2: To the omnium. It's a funny word, the omnium. 339 00:15:39,200 --> 00:15:42,640 Speaker 1: It's a great word, Okay. An omnium is a multiple 340 00:15:42,720 --> 00:15:45,720 Speaker 1: race event in track cycling. Historically, it has a variety 341 00:15:45,760 --> 00:15:49,560 Speaker 1: of formats.

Paralympic goat Ellie Cole 444 00:20:39,600 --> 00:20:42,120 Speaker 1: was the Australian team general manager and led the Australian team, 445 00:20:42,119 --> 00:20:45,320 Speaker 1: which included fifty one female and twenty four male athletes. 446 00:20:45,760 --> 00:20:48,760 Speaker 1: Cole said after the closing ceremony, Trinbago twenty twenty three 447 00:20:48,840 --> 00:20:51,240 Speaker 1: has been a resounding success and I could not be 448 00:20:51,320 --> 00:20:53,040 Speaker 1: more proud of the Australian team and how it has 449 00:20:53,080 --> 00:20:56,359 Speaker 1: embraced the opportunity to compete. I've been inspired by how 450 00:20:56,359 --> 00:20:59,000 Speaker 1: our team has embraced their fellow competitors. To see them 451 00:20:59,000 --> 00:21:02,000 Speaker 1: interacting and building freships with people at varied backgrounds from 452 00:21:02,040 --> 00:21:04,440 Speaker 1: all corners of the globe was one of my personal 453 00:21:04,520 --> 00:21:07,800 Speaker 1: highlights as a paralympian. I also love seeing paraathletes on 454 00:21:07,840 --> 00:21:09,960 Speaker 1: the team for the first time and I'm confident that 455 00:21:10,000 --> 00:21:13,240 Speaker 1: the program will expand beyond just athletics at future Commonwealth 456 00:21:13,280 --> 00:21:14,240 Speaker 1: Youth Games. 457 00:21:14,560 --> 00:21:16,879 Speaker 2: It's a pretty timely reminder that the common Wealth Games, 458 00:21:16,920 --> 00:21:19,879 Speaker 2: whilst seems to be in a little bit of trouble elsewhere, 459 00:21:20,960 --> 00:21:23,800 Speaker 2: still you know, as as Elie the Legend said, it's 460 00:21:23,840 --> 00:21:29,360 Speaker 2: still so important for providing an opportunity for people to compete, 461 00:21:29,480 --> 00:21:31,600 Speaker 2: and not just from like you you probably I think 462 00:21:31,680 --> 00:21:34,399 Speaker 2: that obviously gets a little bit of heat because the 463 00:21:34,440 --> 00:21:38,000 Speaker 2: big countries like ourselves and Great Britain. Actually they complete 464 00:21:38,080 --> 00:21:41,000 Speaker 2: compete as England etc. At the Common Games, but tend 465 00:21:41,000 --> 00:21:43,600 Speaker 2: to dominate. But it's also amazing for the smaller countries 466 00:21:43,640 --> 00:21:45,160 Speaker 2: to have the opportunity to compete at that level. 467 00:21:45,240 --> 00:21:47,600 Speaker 1: Yeah. Absolutely, and for them to keep working on their 468 00:21:47,600 --> 00:21:49,320 Speaker 1: grassroots and their pathways. 469 00:21:49,480 --> 00:21:53,760 Speaker 2: Yes, I agree. In rugby league, the NRL and Rugby 470 00:21:53,800 --> 00:21:56,600 Speaker 2: League Payers Association have finally settled on an in principal 471 00:21:56,680 --> 00:21:59,560 Speaker 2: collective Bargaining Agreement CBA, which is one of my favorite 472 00:21:59,560 --> 00:22:02,280 Speaker 2: things to say on this, to be honest, CBA ending 473 00:22:02,320 --> 00:22:05,800 Speaker 2: a protracted negotiation period that included player protests and all 474 00:22:05,840 --> 00:22:09,119 Speaker 2: sorts of not fun and games. The statement was released 475 00:22:09,119 --> 00:22:12,280 Speaker 2: by the ROPA saying the Rugby League Players Association is 476 00:22:12,280 --> 00:22:14,720 Speaker 2: pleased to advise that it has reached an in principal 477 00:22:14,720 --> 00:22:18,720 Speaker 2: agreement with the NRL on an historic collective bargaining agreement. 478 00:22:19,160 --> 00:22:21,399 Speaker 2: Once ratified, this agreement will set rugby league up for 479 00:22:21,440 --> 00:22:24,280 Speaker 2: the future while ensuring the rights of all NRL and 480 00:22:24,440 --> 00:22:28,640 Speaker 2: NRLW players current and future are protected. So the fine 481 00:22:28,680 --> 00:22:31,560 Speaker 2: details haven't been released as yet, but leaked documents I 482 00:22:31,560 --> 00:22:31,800 Speaker 2: love it. 483 00:22:31,800 --> 00:22:33,840 Speaker 1: There's always a la love a leaked document. 484 00:22:35,280 --> 00:22:37,640 Speaker 2: The eleak documents show the players will enjoy a financial 485 00:22:37,680 --> 00:22:40,400 Speaker 2: win for with the accepted offer of player payments increased 486 00:22:40,400 --> 00:22:41,639 Speaker 2: by thirty seven percent. 487 00:22:41,720 --> 00:22:42,400 Speaker 1: Yeah. Wow. 488 00:22:42,560 --> 00:22:45,040 Speaker 2: The one point three four to seven billion dollars a 489 00:22:45,119 --> 00:22:47,000 Speaker 2: lot of cash. I love that of that amount, one 490 00:22:47,080 --> 00:22:49,400 Speaker 2: hundred and seventeen million will be paid to NLW players 491 00:22:49,440 --> 00:22:52,439 Speaker 2: over the next five years. So by season twenty twenty seven, 492 00:22:52,960 --> 00:22:54,520 Speaker 2: you can see you trying to do the math. There 493 00:22:54,880 --> 00:22:55,360 Speaker 2: not a lot. 494 00:22:55,680 --> 00:22:59,160 Speaker 1: It's not a lot when we're talking billions, but okay, continue. 495 00:22:59,240 --> 00:23:01,719 Speaker 2: By season twenty twenty seven, the LW salary cap will 496 00:23:01,760 --> 00:23:05,000 Speaker 2: reach one point five to one eight million for each 497 00:23:05,040 --> 00:23:09,560 Speaker 2: team with minimum salaries or players of fifty thousand. No, 498 00:23:09,680 --> 00:23:11,440 Speaker 2: that's not for each team at all. That's total because 499 00:23:11,440 --> 00:23:14,919 Speaker 2: that would be a lot with minimum salaries for players 500 00:23:14,920 --> 00:23:18,080 Speaker 2: of fifty thousand, six hundred dollars a year. So twenty 501 00:23:18,119 --> 00:23:21,480 Speaker 2: twenty seven your minimum salary and an NLW team's fifty grand. 502 00:23:21,760 --> 00:23:22,480 Speaker 1: It's getting there. 503 00:23:22,520 --> 00:23:23,119 Speaker 2: It's getting there. 504 00:23:23,160 --> 00:23:24,720 Speaker 1: It's definitely getting there. And I like that there's a 505 00:23:24,760 --> 00:23:26,919 Speaker 1: guarantee that it's happening because I think there's a lot 506 00:23:26,960 --> 00:23:32,000 Speaker 1: of discussions from these domestic professional leagues around the desire 507 00:23:32,119 --> 00:23:34,199 Speaker 1: to eventually become full time, but I think this is 508 00:23:34,240 --> 00:23:39,159 Speaker 1: pretty concrete.
