1
00:00:05,080 --> 00:00:09,120
Speaker 1: Welcome to The Wrap, a weekly podcast covering women's sports news. Bears.

2
00:00:09,200 --> 00:00:11,520
Speaker 1: What have we got around the grounds this week?

3
00:00:11,680 --> 00:00:13,840
Speaker 2: Hannah Green has become the first to training to win

4
00:00:14,000 --> 00:00:17,079
Speaker 2: a hat trick of titles in major two events. Jess

5
00:00:17,079 --> 00:00:20,360
Speaker 2: Hal has won two middles at the World Indoor Athletics Championships,

6
00:00:20,400 --> 00:00:25,280
Speaker 2: and it seems the WNBA Plays Association have finally reached

7
00:00:25,280 --> 00:00:28,120
Speaker 2: an agreement on a new CBA in the WNBA and

8
00:00:28,200 --> 00:00:28,680
Speaker 2: it's huge.

9
00:00:28,680 --> 00:00:31,360
Speaker 1: I can't wait to discuss this. For the key story,

10
00:00:31,400 --> 00:00:35,080
Speaker 1: we discuss new FIFA regulations that now require every women's

11
00:00:35,159 --> 00:00:39,239
Speaker 1: team to include at least one woman head or assistant

12
00:00:39,240 --> 00:00:41,479
Speaker 1: coach in their staff. That's I kind of when I

13
00:00:41,520 --> 00:00:43,080
Speaker 1: first read that, I kind of thought I was getting

14
00:00:43,120 --> 00:00:43,519
Speaker 1: trolled a.

15
00:00:43,520 --> 00:00:45,519
Speaker 2: Bit because you didn't believe it, or.

16
00:00:47,000 --> 00:00:48,600
Speaker 1: Yeah, I was kind of quite surprised.

17
00:00:48,760 --> 00:00:52,520
Speaker 2: Yeah, I love it. I'm really impressed that FIFA has

18
00:00:52,560 --> 00:00:54,640
Speaker 2: just drawn a line in the sand because a lot

19
00:00:54,680 --> 00:00:58,080
Speaker 2: of people who have tried to bring this about organically

20
00:00:58,240 --> 00:01:00,840
Speaker 2: and it just hasn't. The need is not shifting. So

21
00:01:01,240 --> 00:01:02,920
Speaker 2: Fevers obviously said enough.

22
00:01:02,840 --> 00:01:06,520
Speaker 1: Enough, Yeah to be discussed, Yes, skipping it here to

23
00:01:06,720 --> 00:01:10,280
Speaker 1: stand at us just skip too far ahead. Last week

24
00:01:10,319 --> 00:01:13,120
Speaker 1: on the podcast was tennis legend Casey de Lacla Go

25
00:01:13,200 --> 00:01:16,479
Speaker 1: and check that one out. My name is Chloe Dalton.

26
00:01:16,560 --> 00:01:18,880
Speaker 1: I'm joined every week on the show by my co

27
00:01:18,959 --> 00:01:22,120
Speaker 1: host Bez. We're recording on gadigal Land. Let's take a

28
00:01:22,120 --> 00:01:23,560
Speaker 1: look around the grounds.

29
00:01:24,520 --> 00:01:28,160
Speaker 2: Oh, it was really sad, the Tillies. It was sad.

30
00:01:28,440 --> 00:01:30,280
Speaker 1: I really. I thought it was a great game. I

31
00:01:30,319 --> 00:01:34,000
Speaker 1: thought they created a lot more chances than what I've

32
00:01:34,000 --> 00:01:34,759
Speaker 1: seen them create.

33
00:01:35,680 --> 00:01:37,600
Speaker 2: Yeah, we just couldn't read. We just couldn't finish.

34
00:01:37,760 --> 00:01:40,000
Speaker 1: Yeah, which obviously that's the game. The aim of the

35
00:01:40,000 --> 00:01:42,000
Speaker 1: game is to finish them. But I don't know. I

36
00:01:42,080 --> 00:01:44,559
Speaker 1: just take my hats off to them, because I obviously Japan.

37
00:01:44,680 --> 00:01:47,360
Speaker 1: Japan were like clinical, don't you reckon?

38
00:01:47,640 --> 00:01:49,720
Speaker 2: I think I read something from their coach saying that

39
00:01:49,840 --> 00:01:52,120
Speaker 2: they're so good at finding each other on the field

40
00:01:52,120 --> 00:01:53,800
Speaker 2: that you could turn the stadium lights off and they'd

41
00:01:53,800 --> 00:01:55,000
Speaker 2: still be able to pass to each other.

42
00:01:55,120 --> 00:01:55,800
Speaker 1: That's quite cool.

43
00:01:55,880 --> 00:01:58,760
Speaker 2: Yeah. I liked that. Yeah, but it was heartbreaking. They

44
00:01:59,040 --> 00:02:01,600
Speaker 2: were so close and it did feel like I think

45
00:02:01,640 --> 00:02:05,920
Speaker 2: we chatted afterwards, it felt like potentially, and I don't

46
00:02:06,000 --> 00:02:07,240
Speaker 2: necessarily agree with this, but there was a lot of

47
00:02:07,280 --> 00:02:09,920
Speaker 2: chatter around it being their last opportunity as a group

48
00:02:10,000 --> 00:02:13,160
Speaker 2: to win a big trophy because they are some of

49
00:02:13,160 --> 00:02:15,400
Speaker 2: them getting more mature.

50
00:02:15,840 --> 00:02:18,239
Speaker 1: Like that, but very diplomatic. I don't know.

51
00:02:18,320 --> 00:02:22,240
Speaker 2: I think they've definitely got time and I don't think

52
00:02:22,280 --> 00:02:24,480
Speaker 2: that their success should be measured in trophies. I think,

53
00:02:24,600 --> 00:02:27,880
Speaker 2: you know, we spoke about it. The Matilda's success is

54
00:02:27,880 --> 00:02:29,960
Speaker 2: the fact that there were seventy five thousand people there,

55
00:02:30,000 --> 00:02:33,760
Speaker 2: another sold out stay in Australia, and they have changed

56
00:02:33,760 --> 00:02:35,880
Speaker 2: the conversation about women's sport in this country.

57
00:02:36,040 --> 00:02:38,720
Speaker 1: Yeah, they really have. And I think part of the

58
00:02:38,760 --> 00:02:42,200
Speaker 1: heartbreak was the goal from Japan was beautiful.

59
00:02:42,400 --> 00:02:44,880
Speaker 2: It was just one of those like if you asked

60
00:02:45,720 --> 00:02:49,640
Speaker 2: her to do it again. Micah Hamano, who actually I

61
00:02:49,680 --> 00:02:51,680
Speaker 2: saw play for Chelsea when I was over there in

62
00:02:51,720 --> 00:02:55,480
Speaker 2: England before she got loan to Tottenham, and she was good.

63
00:02:55,520 --> 00:02:57,680
Speaker 2: I was actually surprised that Chelsea lent her to Tottenham,

64
00:02:57,680 --> 00:03:00,680
Speaker 2: to be perfectly honest. But if you asked her to

65
00:03:00,680 --> 00:03:04,280
Speaker 2: do that again, like gave her five opportunities, she'd only

66
00:03:04,280 --> 00:03:07,120
Speaker 2: put it in that spot once, you know what I mean.

67
00:03:07,160 --> 00:03:08,480
Speaker 2: It was just a perfect strike.

68
00:03:08,600 --> 00:03:10,320
Speaker 1: It was a beautiful goal and so that was the

69
00:03:10,360 --> 00:03:13,600
Speaker 1: one lead early. I'm so curious about that. I'm not.

70
00:03:13,680 --> 00:03:15,360
Speaker 1: I mean, I played a bit of a bit of

71
00:03:15,360 --> 00:03:17,400
Speaker 1: soccer in my time. Goodness to me the amount of

72
00:03:17,400 --> 00:03:18,880
Speaker 1: times I speak on a panel or at a live

73
00:03:18,880 --> 00:03:21,359
Speaker 1: event and open up for a Q and A. What

74
00:03:21,440 --> 00:03:23,040
Speaker 1: is the most common question I get asked?

75
00:03:23,200 --> 00:03:25,000
Speaker 2: I don't know. What is the most common question is?

76
00:03:25,120 --> 00:03:26,480
Speaker 1: What would be my fourth sport?

77
00:03:27,040 --> 00:03:29,359
Speaker 2: Really? Yeah, but would be your fourth spot? I don't

78
00:03:29,320 --> 00:03:30,800
Speaker 2: actually know about this about you.

79
00:03:31,280 --> 00:03:35,440
Speaker 1: I changed the answer every time, but I slacklighting slack

80
00:03:35,520 --> 00:03:38,440
Speaker 1: lining you do. Yeah, we've discussed this. I'd love to

81
00:03:38,520 --> 00:03:40,600
Speaker 1: head her in a ball off of Steph Catley corner

82
00:03:40,920 --> 00:03:41,839
Speaker 1: for the Tillies. Yeah.

83
00:03:41,880 --> 00:03:43,840
Speaker 2: Nice, you reckon. You could have finished better than Alana

84
00:03:43,920 --> 00:03:45,320
Speaker 2: Kennedy attempted to in the second half.

85
00:03:45,480 --> 00:03:46,200
Speaker 1: No, I reckon.

86
00:03:46,360 --> 00:03:50,120
Speaker 2: I cross though. Actually yeah that was a nice cross.

87
00:03:50,160 --> 00:03:53,560
Speaker 2: I liked that and that again, so we're getting distracted here.

88
00:03:53,680 --> 00:03:58,160
Speaker 2: That's surprising. Football is your fourth sport? Yeah?

89
00:03:58,160 --> 00:03:59,240
Speaker 1: It changes every week?

90
00:03:59,520 --> 00:04:01,360
Speaker 2: Yeah, goals? Actually, you're pretty long.

91
00:04:02,720 --> 00:04:05,520
Speaker 1: Yeah. I wouldn't mind being able to use my heads.

92
00:04:05,800 --> 00:04:07,960
Speaker 2: You spent a lot of your career using your heads.

93
00:04:07,960 --> 00:04:08,760
Speaker 2: I think it too.

94
00:04:09,080 --> 00:04:13,360
Speaker 1: Yeah, okay, great, sortied the new all I'd be way

95
00:04:13,400 --> 00:04:16,679
Speaker 1: too nervous. Eckenzie onnod was so good.

96
00:04:17,400 --> 00:04:18,640
Speaker 2: Sorry, let's get back to the game.

97
00:04:18,920 --> 00:04:19,279
Speaker 1: It's me.

98
00:04:20,040 --> 00:04:24,279
Speaker 2: Yeah, we had fifteen shots, five on target, like we

99
00:04:24,440 --> 00:04:26,599
Speaker 2: just if we and I felt I had that feeling

100
00:04:26,640 --> 00:04:28,559
Speaker 2: in the second half if we had had it buried

101
00:04:28,560 --> 00:04:30,960
Speaker 2: one of those chances, another one would have comet, like

102
00:04:30,960 --> 00:04:32,839
Speaker 2: we would have been too up pretty quickly. I just

103
00:04:32,880 --> 00:04:35,479
Speaker 2: had that feeling about it. Yeah, but we couldn't just

104
00:04:36,279 --> 00:04:37,919
Speaker 2: break their amazing defense.

105
00:04:38,120 --> 00:04:40,960
Speaker 1: Yes, but overall, as you said, Bez, over three hundred

106
00:04:41,000 --> 00:04:43,560
Speaker 1: and fifty thousand fans attended the tournament, making it the

107
00:04:43,560 --> 00:04:47,240
Speaker 1: most attendant Women's Asian Cup in history, more than twelve

108
00:04:47,560 --> 00:04:50,839
Speaker 1: times the total attendance of the two thousand and six

109
00:04:50,880 --> 00:04:53,000
Speaker 1: So twenty years ago two thousand and six Women's Asian Cup,

110
00:04:53,040 --> 00:04:56,200
Speaker 1: which was last time Australia hosted, the total attendance for

111
00:04:56,240 --> 00:04:59,240
Speaker 1: that was just under twenty nine thousand people across the

112
00:04:59,440 --> 00:05:02,720
Speaker 1: entire tourn So I think to your point, like I

113
00:05:03,040 --> 00:05:07,080
Speaker 1: feel devis watching those postmatch interviews, all of them were

114
00:05:08,480 --> 00:05:11,120
Speaker 1: so upset and just you could just read it on

115
00:05:11,160 --> 00:05:13,200
Speaker 1: their faces how much it would have meant to them

116
00:05:13,240 --> 00:05:16,760
Speaker 1: because I think. I mean, we've already gone so sidetracked,

117
00:05:16,800 --> 00:05:19,640
Speaker 1: but I feel like a big part of it for

118
00:05:19,760 --> 00:05:23,000
Speaker 1: them is, yes, I feel like they would love to

119
00:05:23,000 --> 00:05:25,760
Speaker 1: win a trophy, but I feel like there's been obviously

120
00:05:25,839 --> 00:05:29,160
Speaker 1: a huge, huge number of Australians have loved the Tillies,

121
00:05:29,200 --> 00:05:31,719
Speaker 1: fallen in love with them at some point in this journey,

122
00:05:32,240 --> 00:05:34,800
Speaker 1: but there is a small and loud minority, as we

123
00:05:34,839 --> 00:05:37,880
Speaker 1: often talk about, that love ripping down the fact that

124
00:05:37,880 --> 00:05:40,200
Speaker 1: they got a statue because they've never won a trophy

125
00:05:40,279 --> 00:05:43,120
Speaker 1: and blah blah blah blah blah. I just feel like

126
00:05:43,440 --> 00:05:46,360
Speaker 1: there's part of them, even if it's a subconscious thing

127
00:05:46,400 --> 00:05:49,039
Speaker 1: that just would have desperately loved to be like here's

128
00:05:49,080 --> 00:05:52,640
Speaker 1: our trophy. Tick that box shut up now.

129
00:05:52,520 --> 00:05:57,000
Speaker 2: The physical measurable validation of their worth, which is just

130
00:05:57,040 --> 00:06:00,640
Speaker 2: a ridiculous thing because to your point about how they

131
00:06:01,000 --> 00:06:03,080
Speaker 2: reacted after the match and all their posts that they

132
00:06:03,120 --> 00:06:04,640
Speaker 2: put up in the last kind of twenty four to

133
00:06:04,640 --> 00:06:07,320
Speaker 2: forty eight hours about how much it means to them

134
00:06:07,360 --> 00:06:11,480
Speaker 2: to play in Australia for Australia, like that is why

135
00:06:11,520 --> 00:06:13,880
Speaker 2: we love them. I agree, we love them because they

136
00:06:14,040 --> 00:06:20,320
Speaker 2: are real, vulnerable, amazing athletes and yeah, brother Tilly's we

137
00:06:20,360 --> 00:06:20,640
Speaker 2: love you.

138
00:06:20,920 --> 00:06:21,600
Speaker 1: I agree.

139
00:06:21,880 --> 00:06:22,800
Speaker 2: We also love golf.

140
00:06:23,040 --> 00:06:24,120
Speaker 1: Yeah we do do we?

141
00:06:25,400 --> 00:06:27,120
Speaker 2: I actually do. I watched it a bit of golf over

142
00:06:27,160 --> 00:06:29,960
Speaker 2: the weekend. My in laws were here, and when the

143
00:06:29,960 --> 00:06:34,640
Speaker 2: in laws are here, the golf Kerry and Eric Andah

144
00:06:34,640 --> 00:06:37,760
Speaker 2: Green has won the Australian WPPGA Championship to become the

145
00:06:37,760 --> 00:06:40,520
Speaker 2: first Australian golfer to complete a hat trick of titles

146
00:06:40,520 --> 00:06:43,520
Speaker 2: in major tour events, something not even Carrie Web or

147
00:06:43,520 --> 00:06:44,560
Speaker 2: Greg Norman managed to do.

148
00:06:45,120 --> 00:06:46,440
Speaker 1: How good she's killing it?

149
00:06:46,480 --> 00:06:49,520
Speaker 2: Take a step back, carry it comes. Following back to

150
00:06:49,560 --> 00:06:52,200
Speaker 2: back wings at the HSBC Women's World Championship and Australia

151
00:06:52,240 --> 00:06:55,320
Speaker 2: Open in the past two in her past two starts,

152
00:06:55,440 --> 00:06:57,360
Speaker 2: Green began at the day two starts clear of her

153
00:06:57,360 --> 00:07:00,880
Speaker 2: next competitor, South African Cassandra Alexander and briefly had a

154
00:07:00,920 --> 00:07:03,520
Speaker 2: six shot buffer after just four holes before successive bogies

155
00:07:03,520 --> 00:07:06,160
Speaker 2: saw that advantage produced to just two a birdie. The

156
00:07:06,279 --> 00:07:09,680
Speaker 2: ninth pro provided welcome breathing room. Alexander made a bertie

157
00:07:09,720 --> 00:07:11,960
Speaker 2: on the last give a three shot buffer with two

158
00:07:12,000 --> 00:07:15,920
Speaker 2: holes remaining, but Hannah Green showed a composure on the

159
00:07:15,920 --> 00:07:17,600
Speaker 2: fin hole with a birdie to clinch a four stroke

160
00:07:17,680 --> 00:07:20,280
Speaker 2: win at sixteen hundred part and a share and a

161
00:07:20,320 --> 00:07:22,280
Speaker 2: share of the six hundred thousand dollar prize first.

162
00:07:22,440 --> 00:07:26,560
Speaker 1: Not bad. In athletics, Ozzie high jumper Nicola Olislagas has

163
00:07:26,600 --> 00:07:29,960
Speaker 1: won her seventh global medal with silver the World Athletics

164
00:07:29,960 --> 00:07:33,760
Speaker 1: Indoor Championships. Entering the Champs as the back to back champion,

165
00:07:33,880 --> 00:07:36,680
Speaker 1: olas Laga's clinched silver with a one point nine nine

166
00:07:36,760 --> 00:07:39,960
Speaker 1: meter clearance, which also finished in a three way tie,

167
00:07:40,160 --> 00:07:43,680
Speaker 1: so they all missed the same number, so they couldn't

168
00:07:43,680 --> 00:07:44,920
Speaker 1: even separate them on countback.

169
00:07:44,960 --> 00:07:45,280
Speaker 2: Classic.

170
00:07:45,840 --> 00:07:47,760
Speaker 1: It's kind of cool and it kind of shows how

171
00:07:47,800 --> 00:07:51,040
Speaker 1: strong that field is, how good. Only world record holder

172
00:07:51,080 --> 00:07:55,160
Speaker 1: and raining Olympic champion Yaroslava maho Chic could take down

173
00:07:55,160 --> 00:07:59,040
Speaker 1: the Aussie no surprises there. Fellow Ossie Ellinor Patterson bowed

174
00:07:59,040 --> 00:08:01,280
Speaker 1: out with the seventh place finished clearing one point ninety

175
00:08:01,280 --> 00:08:05,080
Speaker 1: three meters but falling short of fifth place on countback. Meanwhile,

176
00:08:05,160 --> 00:08:08,120
Speaker 1: middle distance star Jessica Hull finished with a silver in

177
00:08:08,160 --> 00:08:10,480
Speaker 1: the fifteen hundred meter final and bronze in the three

178
00:08:10,480 --> 00:08:13,120
Speaker 1: thousand meter. This is really cool Hull became the first

179
00:08:13,200 --> 00:08:16,320
Speaker 1: Australian woman to break the four minute barrier indoors when

180
00:08:16,360 --> 00:08:20,120
Speaker 1: reclaiming her national record in the fifteen hundred meters. Hal's

181
00:08:20,120 --> 00:08:22,880
Speaker 1: time of three fifty nine forty five could only be

182
00:08:22,960 --> 00:08:25,640
Speaker 1: bettered by Great Britains Georgia Hunter Bell, who was less

183
00:08:25,640 --> 00:08:28,520
Speaker 1: than a second a head. This silver is Hull's seventh

184
00:08:28,560 --> 00:08:31,760
Speaker 1: global metal weight. Is that the same as Nikola? Yes? Cool,

185
00:08:32,400 --> 00:08:35,439
Speaker 1: she's still chasing that elusive made in individual gold. I

186
00:08:35,440 --> 00:08:36,240
Speaker 1: I back her in.

187
00:08:36,320 --> 00:08:37,640
Speaker 2: She didn't get there, It's coming.

188
00:08:37,840 --> 00:08:39,719
Speaker 1: Yeah. Meanwhile, in the three thousand meters he'll cross the

189
00:08:39,760 --> 00:08:41,559
Speaker 1: line in third place with a time of eight fifty

190
00:08:41,600 --> 00:08:45,680
Speaker 1: eight eighteen. The Aussie finished behind Italy's Nadia Battacleti and

191
00:08:45,720 --> 00:08:49,800
Speaker 1: America's Emily McKay, while fellow Australian Linden Hall claimed twelfth.

192
00:08:49,800 --> 00:08:51,400
Speaker 1: In nine oh four eighty three.

193
00:08:51,360 --> 00:08:53,720
Speaker 2: Ins of cricket, the Queensland Fire I have clinched there

194
00:08:53,800 --> 00:08:57,520
Speaker 2: the second at WNCL title after ass really but rain

195
00:08:57,640 --> 00:09:01,440
Speaker 2: reduced final brutal. The Sydney weather's been very erratic.

196
00:09:01,600 --> 00:09:03,320
Speaker 1: Oh my goodness, yes it has.

197
00:09:03,880 --> 00:09:06,400
Speaker 2: I watched a bit of the w NCL final, Beautiful

198
00:09:06,400 --> 00:09:10,440
Speaker 2: Sunshine one minute cartoon rained. The next Queensland won the toss,

199
00:09:10,480 --> 00:09:14,280
Speaker 2: elected to bat and inspired superb centuries from Georgia Redmain

200
00:09:14,400 --> 00:09:16,600
Speaker 2: one hundred and five and Grace Harris one hundred and eleven.

201
00:09:16,600 --> 00:09:18,160
Speaker 2: They combined for one hundred and ninety two wickets for

202
00:09:18,200 --> 00:09:22,839
Speaker 2: the third hundred ninet two runs the third wicket, helping

203
00:09:22,880 --> 00:09:25,360
Speaker 2: Queensland set a score of seven for three hundred and

204
00:09:25,400 --> 00:09:30,000
Speaker 2: thirty two. After a rain lay, the Great Alisa Healy

205
00:09:30,080 --> 00:09:32,760
Speaker 2: blasted sixty four from sixty three to give the breakas

206
00:09:32,760 --> 00:09:38,199
Speaker 2: a chance, but they just couldn't get over the line.

207
00:09:38,360 --> 00:09:40,400
Speaker 2: It was the third time lacking in the decide for Queensland,

208
00:09:40,440 --> 00:09:43,200
Speaker 2: after losing to Tasmania and Newsophiles in the previous two

209
00:09:43,360 --> 00:09:44,880
Speaker 2: WNCL finals.

210
00:09:45,120 --> 00:09:45,520
Speaker 1: I like this.

211
00:09:45,600 --> 00:09:48,040
Speaker 2: While accepting the Ruth Brady Cup skip out, Georgia Redmate

212
00:09:48,040 --> 00:09:50,319
Speaker 2: admitted she was sick of making second place speeches.

213
00:09:50,360 --> 00:09:53,120
Speaker 1: Heay for it, even though I strongly disliked Queensland. I'm

214
00:09:53,120 --> 00:09:53,560
Speaker 1: here for that.

215
00:09:53,960 --> 00:09:57,760
Speaker 2: I think nufhals have one like, let's just say, out

216
00:09:57,760 --> 00:10:01,480
Speaker 2: of twents, like seventeen or some ridiculous so I guess

217
00:10:01,520 --> 00:10:02,079
Speaker 2: we can share.

218
00:10:02,559 --> 00:10:06,320
Speaker 1: You know what we sound like, what my partner's Kiwi

219
00:10:06,480 --> 00:10:10,000
Speaker 1: family that like gets really patronizing about the All Blacks

220
00:10:10,000 --> 00:10:12,360
Speaker 1: and like, can they feel that we want the Wallabies

221
00:10:12,400 --> 00:10:12,880
Speaker 1: to be good?

222
00:10:12,920 --> 00:10:15,400
Speaker 2: I hate that. Sorry, I hate it so much.

223
00:10:16,320 --> 00:10:18,840
Speaker 1: I hate it so much. In netball, the New Southwes

224
00:10:18,880 --> 00:10:21,440
Speaker 1: Swifts have edged out in Melbourne Mavericks seventy to sixty

227
00:10:27,400 --> 00:10:31,040
Speaker 1: How good is that? It's really really cool with second home.

228
00:10:31,080 --> 00:10:32,520
Speaker 2: We've got to work out on the weekend, isn't that.

229
00:10:32,640 --> 00:10:33,960

00:10:41,600 --> 00:10:43,720
Speaker 1: them to their first victory of the season in what

234
00:10:43,840 --> 00:10:47,120

236
00:10:50,000 --> 00:10:51,880
Speaker 1: for her, even though I'm Giants through and through. I'm

237
00:10:51,880 --> 00:10:54,120
Speaker 1: stoked that Maddy Praud got the winner of one fiftieth

238
00:10:54,400 --> 00:10:56,520
Speaker 1: very well deserved and has come back from giving birth

239
00:10:56,559 --> 00:10:59,720
Speaker 1: like bloody legend. In other SSN results this week, the

Speaker 1: Life defeated the Firebirds sixty three to sixty two in

241
00:11:02,679 --> 00:11:05,520
Speaker 1: a Battle of the Bruce thanks to a clutch super

242
00:11:05,559 --> 00:11:07,880
Speaker 1: shot for Dannell Wallam. We said last week how good

243
00:11:07,880 --> 00:11:10,240
Speaker 1: it was seeing Dannell back playing a bit of super

244
00:11:10,240 --> 00:11:12,559
Speaker 1: net Bowl. The Adelaide Thunderbirds down the West Coast Fever

245
00:11:12,640 --> 00:11:15,400
Speaker 1: sixty six to fifty three, and the Giants remained winless.

246
00:11:15,480 --> 00:11:17,880
Speaker 1: Oh sad after going down to rating champs the Melbourne

247
00:11:17,920 --> 00:11:19,360
Speaker 1: Vixen's by sixteen points.

248
00:11:19,640 --> 00:11:21,680
Speaker 2: In some cricket of the international kind, the Ossies have

249
00:11:21,720 --> 00:11:24,560
Speaker 2: taken a two nier lead in their two T twenty

250
00:11:24,679 --> 00:11:27,440
Speaker 2: series against the West Indis after feeding the Carabean team

251
00:11:27,480 --> 00:11:31,120
Speaker 2: by seventeen runs in their second match. Ozzie set a

252
00:11:31,160 --> 00:11:32,760
Speaker 2: target of five for one sixty four with e Lease

253
00:11:32,800 --> 00:11:36,240
Speaker 2: Perries forty two and Georgia vol thirty nine the top contributors.

254
00:11:36,760 --> 00:11:39,200
Speaker 2: Alana King picked up figures of two for twenty five,

255
00:11:39,240 --> 00:11:41,760
Speaker 2: following her three for fourteen in the series opener with

256
00:11:41,960 --> 00:11:44,560
Speaker 2: leg spin again the main weave of Australia, as Georgia,

257
00:11:44,559 --> 00:11:46,840
Speaker 2: wearing one for sixteen, picked up Australia's only other wicket.

258
00:11:47,080 --> 00:11:49,320
Speaker 1: Go the girls, Yeah, the girls, do we think that

259
00:11:49,880 --> 00:11:53,800
Speaker 1: Elisa Heally was strategic about her retirement from international cricket

260
00:11:53,800 --> 00:11:55,800
Speaker 1: to play in that WNCL Grand final and she really

261
00:11:55,840 --> 00:11:57,200
Speaker 1: would have loved to top that off.

262
00:11:57,720 --> 00:12:02,360
Speaker 2: Actually, I'd definitely agree also. But even between her last

263
00:12:02,600 --> 00:12:07,720
Speaker 2: that Perth Test match and the WNCL final, she was

264
00:12:07,800 --> 00:12:10,440
Speaker 2: in and around all the golf going on.

265
00:12:10,840 --> 00:12:11,520
Speaker 1: Of course she was.

266
00:12:12,120 --> 00:12:14,320
Speaker 2: I think her and Mitchell Stark played around with the

267
00:12:14,559 --> 00:12:18,360
Speaker 2: with Hannah Green at some point too. I was gonna say,

268
00:12:18,400 --> 00:12:22,280
Speaker 2: do we feel a little sporting segue coming on here?

269
00:12:22,679 --> 00:12:24,640
Speaker 1: Oh my god? She could totally do that, couldn't she.

270
00:12:24,720 --> 00:12:29,120
Speaker 2: I'm sniffing it. I Well, I mean obviously she does.

271
00:12:29,160 --> 00:12:34,079
Speaker 2: Obviously her media career is already, as we said, established.

272
00:12:34,679 --> 00:12:36,080
Speaker 2: But yeah, she can hit a golf ball.

273
00:12:36,520 --> 00:12:38,240
Speaker 1: Yeah. She's better than her husband most of the time,

274
00:12:38,320 --> 00:12:41,280
Speaker 1: isn't she. Yeahs Yeah, because they played the Stark Keeley

275
00:12:41,320 --> 00:12:42,960
Speaker 1: Cup or something, Yeah, Stark Cup.

276
00:12:42,880 --> 00:12:46,480
Speaker 2: Starky or something they call it, or Keeley or of something.

277
00:12:46,559 --> 00:12:49,320
Speaker 2: They played long reef. Yes, thanks pretty so if they

278
00:12:49,360 --> 00:12:51,479
Speaker 2: played in the Pro Am, cool, Yeah.

279
00:12:51,240 --> 00:12:53,680
Speaker 1: That's really cool. In a bit of football news, a

280
00:12:53,880 --> 00:12:56,840
Speaker 1: hat trick from a nineteen year old Daisy Brown has

281
00:12:56,880 --> 00:12:58,920
Speaker 1: helped the Brisbane Roar to win four to two over

282
00:12:58,960 --> 00:13:01,800
Speaker 1: the Newcastle Jets. How good is that?

283
00:13:01,800 --> 00:13:02,320
Speaker 2: That's awesome?

284
00:13:02,360 --> 00:13:04,960
Speaker 1: The wind takes Brisbane up into six and snaps their

285
00:13:05,000 --> 00:13:07,800
Speaker 1: full game losing streak. In other A League women's results

Speaker 2: Exception Champions of the World claimant.

299
00:13:45,240 --> 00:13:47,280
Speaker 1: Does that mean they should just win the World Cup

300
00:13:47,360 --> 00:13:50,400
Speaker 1: right now? It's so what we're saying, just you.

301
00:13:50,400 --> 00:13:51,720

Speaker 2: they can just be like, you know what, we can't

303
00:13:52,920 --> 00:13:54,040

Speaker 1: America there.

309
00:13:59,600 --> 00:14:03,080
Speaker 2: Although we're on the other side. I believe they were.

315
00:14:15,160 --> 00:14:18,120
Speaker 2: the wind behind Sammy Wickkim's twenty three points, including a

00:14:18,360 --> 00:14:21,600
Speaker 2: flawless five from five from beyond the arc. Having secured

317
00:14:21,600 --> 00:14:24,480
Speaker 2: World Cup qualification at their Asia Cup campaign last year,

323
00:14:41,600 --> 00:14:45,800
Speaker 1: Gibson was a qualifer in Miami, while Yovich was the

324
00:14:45,880 --> 00:14:48,080
Speaker 1: eighteenth seed. The twenty one year old from Perth has

325

333
00:15:15,920 --> 00:15:17,920
Speaker 2: CBA news And we're not talking about the Comnwalth Bank

334
00:15:17,920 --> 00:15:18,440
Speaker 2: of Australia.

335
00:15:18,520 --> 00:15:18,960
Speaker 1: We are not.

336
00:15:19,320 --> 00:15:21,960
Speaker 2: We love the work they do to support the Tillic sport. Yeah,

337
00:15:22,280 --> 00:15:26,760
Speaker 2: we're talking about a collective bargaining agreement news the Women's

338
00:15:26,880 --> 00:15:30,800
Speaker 2: National Basketball Association WNBA. It's a lot of acronyms here,

339
00:15:30,800 --> 00:15:38,000
Speaker 2: people and the Women's National Basketball Players Association WNP w NBPA.

340
00:15:38,240 --> 00:15:40,320
Speaker 1: I never know which comes first out of the BNP

341
00:15:40,480 --> 00:15:41,720
Speaker 1: in that scenario.

342
00:15:41,400 --> 00:15:44,200
Speaker 2: It's tough. I have reached a teneim agreement on a

343
00:15:44,240 --> 00:15:48,920
Speaker 2: new collective bargaining Agreement as CBA. The new seven year CBA,

344
00:15:49,040 --> 00:15:51,400
Speaker 2: which will commence with the twenty twenty sixth season and

345
00:15:51,480 --> 00:15:53,840
Speaker 2: run through twenty thirty two, repersents one of the most

346
00:15:53,880 --> 00:15:58,480
Speaker 2: transformational agreements ever reached in major professional sports. Now, there

347
00:15:58,520 --> 00:16:01,200
Speaker 2: was a bit of fear in around this not getting

348
00:16:01,200 --> 00:16:03,240
Speaker 2: done in time for the season to start, So it's

349
00:16:03,320 --> 00:16:08,520
Speaker 2: good to see that they got together and got it done.

350
00:16:08,720 --> 00:16:11,840
Speaker 1: It was really cool to see how much it took off.

351
00:16:11,880 --> 00:16:14,760
Speaker 1: And obviously my algorithm is all women's sports, and just

352
00:16:14,840 --> 00:16:17,280
Speaker 1: like seeing the reactions to it was like so cool.

353
00:16:17,280 --> 00:16:19,160
Speaker 1: We'll obviously get into a little bit more detail around

354
00:16:19,160 --> 00:16:21,840
Speaker 1: what it actually looks like, but we've talked about it

355
00:16:21,880 --> 00:16:24,240
Speaker 1: a lot, Like, I just love the way that the

356
00:16:24,360 --> 00:16:27,360
Speaker 1: WNBA players have really stood their ground on a lot

357
00:16:27,440 --> 00:16:30,600
Speaker 1: of really important issues. I think what I love and

358
00:16:30,600 --> 00:16:32,600
Speaker 1: why I feel like these players really deserve to be

359
00:16:32,680 --> 00:16:35,880
Speaker 1: rewarded is because they are so often using their platform

360
00:16:35,920 --> 00:16:38,880
Speaker 1: to advocate for others and advocate for minority groups and

361
00:16:38,920 --> 00:16:40,840
Speaker 1: people who don't have voices and power, and so I

362
00:16:40,840 --> 00:16:42,640
Speaker 1: think it's really cool that they've now stood their ground

363
00:16:42,680 --> 00:16:44,520
Speaker 1: and said this is for us, and they've got over

364
00:16:44,560 --> 00:16:45,040
Speaker 1: the line.

365
00:16:45,280 --> 00:16:47,760
Speaker 2: Yeah, you've absolutely nailed that summary there.

366
00:16:47,880 --> 00:16:50,400
Speaker 1: Thank you for your support. The twenty twenty six CVA

367
00:16:50,520 --> 00:16:54,120
Speaker 1: establishes the first comprehensive revenue sharing model in women's professional

368
00:16:54,160 --> 00:16:59,480
Speaker 1: sports history. The groundbreaking model provides unlimited upside, unlimited upside

369
00:16:59,600 --> 00:17:02,840
Speaker 1: for play as league and team revenues continue to grow,

370
00:17:03,200 --> 00:17:03,560
Speaker 1: and just.

371
00:17:03,720 --> 00:17:06,119
Speaker 2: We've spoken about this before, but a revshare model just

372
00:17:06,800 --> 00:17:11,280
Speaker 2: incentivizes the athletes to be even better at growing the game.

373
00:17:11,320 --> 00:17:15,080
Speaker 2: I mean, they're already so exceptional, as we said, telling

374
00:17:15,080 --> 00:17:19,199
Speaker 2: their story, sharing messages and helping, you know, build the

375
00:17:19,200 --> 00:17:21,439
Speaker 2: game from the grassroots up. This is just going to

376
00:17:21,440 --> 00:17:22,639
Speaker 2: incentivize them even more.

377
00:17:22,840 --> 00:17:25,440
Speaker 1: Yeah, I absolutely agree with you. The new system will

378
00:17:25,440 --> 00:17:28,440
Speaker 1: result in significant increases in player compensation, with the league

379
00:17:28,440 --> 00:17:31,960
Speaker 1: projecting more than one billion dollars in player salaries and

380
00:17:32,000 --> 00:17:34,720
Speaker 1: benefits over the seven year agreement. The salary cap for

381
00:17:34,760 --> 00:17:36,840
Speaker 1: the twenty twenty six season will be set at seven

382
00:17:36,920 --> 00:17:40,240
Speaker 1: million and will adjust annually based on league and team

383
00:17:40,320 --> 00:17:41,280
Speaker 1: revenue growth.

384
00:17:41,320 --> 00:17:43,160
Speaker 2: The league's top players will gain the ability to sign

385
00:17:43,359 --> 00:17:48,840
Speaker 2: the first multimillion dollar contracts in WNBA history. Maximum maximum

386
00:17:48,840 --> 00:17:51,600
Speaker 2: contract players will earn a salary of one point four

387
00:17:51,640 --> 00:17:54,320
Speaker 2: million in twenty twenty six. Minimum salaries will range from

388
00:17:54,320 --> 00:17:57,359
Speaker 2: two hundred and seventy to three hundred thousand in twenty

389
00:17:57,359 --> 00:17:59,200
Speaker 2: twenty six based on needs of service, and will range

390
00:17:59,200 --> 00:18:04,040
Speaker 2: from three forty three eighty by two thousand and thirty two.

391
00:18:04,560 --> 00:18:07,560
Speaker 2: The deal also includes an increased minimum roster size of

392
00:18:07,600 --> 00:18:10,880
Speaker 2: twelve players plus two more roster spots for developmental players.

393
00:18:11,200 --> 00:18:13,560
Speaker 2: I think that's important. We always go on about how

394
00:18:13,720 --> 00:18:16,280
Speaker 2: the squad sizes need to be bigger. For sure, fans

395
00:18:16,280 --> 00:18:19,679
Speaker 2: will also experience more WNBA basketball through an increase of

396
00:18:19,800 --> 00:18:21,960
Speaker 2: up to fifty games in twenty twenty seven and twenty

397
00:18:21,960 --> 00:18:24,040
Speaker 2: twenty eight and up to fifty two games in twenty

398
00:18:24,119 --> 00:18:25,479
Speaker 2: twenty nine through to twenty thirty two.

399
00:18:26,119 --> 00:18:29,439
Speaker 1: So, in twenty twenty three, we saw a complaint from

400
00:18:29,840 --> 00:18:35,000
Speaker 1: Las Vegas Aces player Dereka Hanby, who alleged that her

401
00:18:35,119 --> 00:18:39,000
Speaker 1: former team bullied and discriminated again so during pregnancy. A

402
00:18:39,080 --> 00:18:42,919
Speaker 1: league investigation found the Aces and violated rules regarding impermissible

403
00:18:42,960 --> 00:18:46,159
Speaker 1: player benefits and workplace conduct, leading to a suspension of

404
00:18:46,200 --> 00:18:48,520
Speaker 1: head coach Becky Hammond and the loss of a draft pick.

405
00:18:49,119 --> 00:18:51,000
Speaker 1: So she was very poorly.

406
00:18:50,720 --> 00:18:56,000
Speaker 2: Treated, Yeah, she was very unjustly treated, Yes, when she

407
00:18:56,119 --> 00:18:57,280
Speaker 2: was going through her pregnancy.

408
00:18:57,560 --> 00:18:57,800
Speaker 1: Yes.

409
00:18:58,000 --> 00:18:59,840
Speaker 2: So this led to growing talks of new pregnancy p

410
00:19:00,000 --> 00:19:01,800
Speaker 2: t section laws of players and now, as for the

411
00:19:01,800 --> 00:19:04,480
Speaker 2: new CBA agreement, teams must obtain play it gets sent

412
00:19:04,520 --> 00:19:07,760
Speaker 2: before trading a pregnant player. It's huge, Yeah, it's it's

413
00:19:09,240 --> 00:19:11,480
Speaker 2: it's huge, but it's just something that always should have

414
00:19:11,480 --> 00:19:11,960
Speaker 2: been there as well.

415
00:19:12,000 --> 00:19:14,200
Speaker 1: I know when I say it's huge, I shouldn't even.

416
00:19:14,160 --> 00:19:15,919
Speaker 2: Yeah, no, I get what you're saying. It's a relief,

417
00:19:16,280 --> 00:19:19,480
Speaker 2: it's a relief. It's probably that's the emotion. Is gosh,

418
00:19:19,520 --> 00:19:21,080
Speaker 2: this is kind of common sense and why it didn't

419
00:19:21,080 --> 00:19:21,880
Speaker 2: exist beforehand.

420
00:19:22,080 --> 00:19:25,040
Speaker 1: Yeah, thanks for saying my words better than I ever

421
00:19:25,119 --> 00:19:29,000
Speaker 1: can imagine having to relocate pregnant and having no say

422
00:19:29,000 --> 00:19:30,919
Speaker 1: in the matter, because we've seen that, I think with

423
00:19:31,000 --> 00:19:34,520
Speaker 1: American sports in particular, we know, like in the men's league,

424
00:19:34,520 --> 00:19:37,919
Speaker 1: in the NBA and the WNBA, like it's so savage

425
00:19:38,240 --> 00:19:41,639
Speaker 1: how quickly players get traded, and I simply cannot imagine

426
00:19:42,040 --> 00:19:44,119
Speaker 1: having no say, like I think we see it on

427
00:19:44,160 --> 00:19:47,560
Speaker 1: a smaller scale with the AFL and AFOW with the

428
00:19:47,640 --> 00:19:50,119
Speaker 1: national Draft that if you want to be drafted as

429
00:19:50,160 --> 00:19:51,960
Speaker 1: a player, you got to throw your hat in the ring. Now,

430
00:19:53,280 --> 00:19:56,120
Speaker 1: early stages of AFLW they didn't do that, and they

431
00:19:56,200 --> 00:19:59,200
Speaker 1: couldn't do it because there wasn't enough money to say

432
00:19:59,200 --> 00:20:00,800
Speaker 1: you need to move to the the side of the country.

433
00:20:00,800 --> 00:20:04,159
Speaker 1: But as we've seen increases in minimum salaries, but just

434
00:20:04,200 --> 00:20:07,359
Speaker 1: even that thought it it's a weird idea. I guess

435
00:20:07,359 --> 00:20:10,560
Speaker 1: like for me, I came in as a more mature player.

436
00:20:10,640 --> 00:20:14,040
Speaker 1: Let's roll with your words on that from a different sport.

437
00:20:14,119 --> 00:20:16,840
Speaker 1: So I was like that alternative sport rookie. So I

438
00:20:16,880 --> 00:20:18,879
Speaker 1: got I guess more say in where I was going,

439
00:20:19,200 --> 00:20:21,720
Speaker 1: Baggers Go the bagger is. No one looks bad in

440
00:20:21,800 --> 00:20:26,359
Speaker 1: navy blue, I'll tell you that much. Yeah, I just

441
00:20:26,520 --> 00:20:29,359
Speaker 1: it must be a really unsettling feeling to just not

442
00:20:29,440 --> 00:20:33,280
Speaker 1: know where you're going full stop, let alone being pregnant

443
00:20:33,280 --> 00:20:37,440
Speaker 1: and trying to plan raising a baby human child.

444
00:20:38,000 --> 00:20:40,840
Speaker 2: A baby human child, I'm glad you've got one of those.

445
00:20:40,960 --> 00:20:43,679
Speaker 1: Holy I don't know, yea, it isn't me.

446
00:20:43,920 --> 00:20:45,760
Speaker 2: It's a common sense thing that should have been there,

447
00:20:45,800 --> 00:20:48,320
Speaker 2: and it's very nice that they were able to include

448
00:20:48,320 --> 00:20:51,240
Speaker 2: it in this new round of negotiations and have it short.

449
00:20:51,040 --> 00:20:57,120
Speaker 1: Up absolutely in a cool sponsorship story which look, we're

450
00:20:57,119 --> 00:20:59,080
Speaker 1: not going to say we predicted it. On the next

451
00:20:59,240 --> 00:21:01,720
Speaker 1: Rebrown who As and I co host the next podcast

452
00:21:01,720 --> 00:21:05,560
Speaker 1: with which PS. Shameless Plug is a relatively new podcast

453
00:21:05,560 --> 00:21:07,440
Speaker 1: we started. It's a monthly podcast we do on TEFAP

454
00:21:07,440 --> 00:21:07,880
Speaker 1: that's all.

455
00:21:07,800 --> 00:21:11,080
Speaker 2: About predicting the future, and we did it Oh.

456
00:21:10,960 --> 00:21:13,560
Speaker 1: My God, is going to kill you. She's a futress

457
00:21:13,600 --> 00:21:15,840
Speaker 1: and she's like, we do not predict the future. We

458
00:21:15,880 --> 00:21:20,240
Speaker 1: study trends. We study trends to see signals of what's

459
00:21:20,320 --> 00:21:23,080
Speaker 1: changing before we even notice. It was that good read.

460
00:21:23,160 --> 00:21:25,560
Speaker 1: Let me know. We talked about recently on an episode

461
00:21:25,600 --> 00:21:28,560
Speaker 1: about this convergence of fashion and beauty in women's sports,

462
00:21:28,560 --> 00:21:31,520
Speaker 1: which could be argued that it needs to be done

463
00:21:31,520 --> 00:21:33,080
Speaker 1: in the right way, like we want to make sure

464
00:21:33,080 --> 00:21:36,320
Speaker 1: that people are treading carefully. I loved there was a

465
00:21:36,359 --> 00:21:39,040
Speaker 1: Runner who say an article who she talked about the

466
00:21:39,040 --> 00:21:41,080
Speaker 1: infiltration of women's brands at the Australian Open.

467
00:21:41,080 --> 00:21:41,680
Speaker 2: Did you see them?

468
00:21:41,760 --> 00:21:43,560
Speaker 1: I thought that was really interesting from Runner. I love

469
00:21:43,560 --> 00:21:46,840
Speaker 1: her work. But god, I'm going on a bit of

470
00:21:46,880 --> 00:21:49,960
Speaker 1: a ramble today. You're like, yeah, you are.

471
00:21:50,080 --> 00:21:51,520
Speaker 2: You just gave me another one. Yeah you are.

472
00:21:51,560 --> 00:21:54,280
Speaker 1: You always do. The Newcastle Knights, this is really cool

473
00:21:54,280 --> 00:21:57,000
Speaker 1: have announced a landmark new partnership with the leading fashion

474
00:21:57,040 --> 00:21:59,400
Speaker 1: and lifestyle platform The Iconic ahead of the twenty twenty

475
00:21:59,480 --> 00:22:01,920
Speaker 1: six and W season and a first of its kind

476
00:22:01,960 --> 00:22:04,160
Speaker 1: collaboration for the brand. The Iconic will join the club

477
00:22:04,200 --> 00:22:07,800
Speaker 1: as the exclusive retail partner of the Knights n ERLW site.

478
00:22:08,160 --> 00:22:10,280
Speaker 1: The partnership will see the Iconic feature on the team's

479
00:22:10,320 --> 00:22:13,960
Speaker 1: playing kit while also designing the squad's off field uniforms.

480
00:22:14,040 --> 00:22:17,240
Speaker 1: That's cool because I think they're often very poorly done

481
00:22:17,240 --> 00:22:20,280
Speaker 1: off field uniforms for women's sports teams. I agree, How

482
00:22:20,280 --> 00:22:22,560
Speaker 1: would you see that based on your rugby experience?

483
00:22:22,800 --> 00:22:26,200
Speaker 2: It's a polo pants, yeah, and it's a polo and shorts.

484
00:22:25,880 --> 00:22:28,000
Speaker 1: Really or a lot of the time is skirt and

485
00:22:28,000 --> 00:22:29,920
Speaker 1: that does not appeal to all people in a women's

486
00:22:30,080 --> 00:22:32,240
Speaker 1: rugby team or a women's sporting team in general.

487
00:22:32,800 --> 00:22:34,479
Speaker 2: And I like, I'll be interested to see what this

488
00:22:34,520 --> 00:22:37,880
Speaker 2: looks like it. Are they going to let them have

489
00:22:38,040 --> 00:22:41,320
Speaker 2: free range of the Iconic's website and do you know,

490
00:22:41,400 --> 00:22:43,439
Speaker 2: like how WNBA do their fits?

491
00:22:43,880 --> 00:22:46,920
Speaker 1: We would be really cool over on.

492
00:22:46,840 --> 00:22:50,160
Speaker 2: That too, because then Iconic, I mean, you can throw

493
00:22:50,200 --> 00:22:52,360
Speaker 2: me some money later, but the Iconic will be smart

494
00:22:53,000 --> 00:22:55,360
Speaker 2: to be like girls have at it on the website

495
00:22:55,400 --> 00:22:57,199
Speaker 2: and then just link to every product every time they

496
00:22:57,200 --> 00:22:58,680
Speaker 2: put pictures up.

497
00:22:59,080 --> 00:23:01,440
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's look at you. You're working in partnerships now,

498
00:23:01,800 --> 00:23:06,640
Speaker 1: I could good if I wanted to. Anyway, I think

499
00:23:06,640 --> 00:23:10,480
Speaker 1: it's a really cool moment. For both organizations and women's

500
00:23:10,480 --> 00:23:12,800
Speaker 1: sport in Australia. I think in particular as well as

501
00:23:12,840 --> 00:23:14,600
Speaker 1: really cool that the Knights can kind of help lead

502
00:23:14,640 --> 00:23:16,880
Speaker 1: that space as well as we saw the WNBL deal

503
00:23:17,760 --> 00:23:19,600
Speaker 1: with Sephora, which is a really big one.

504
00:23:19,960 --> 00:23:21,919
Speaker 2: And I think that's the thing that stood out for

505
00:23:21,960 --> 00:23:24,240
Speaker 2: me the most of this story is that I'm loving

506
00:23:24,240 --> 00:23:27,560
Speaker 2: the fact that there are organizations out there that are

507
00:23:28,760 --> 00:23:31,680
Speaker 2: not just adding their women's team onto their men's commercial deals.

508
00:23:31,880 --> 00:23:35,680
Speaker 2: Totally go find go find your own commercial partners. There

509
00:23:35,720 --> 00:23:38,480
Speaker 2: are commercial partners out there that want to support women's sport,

510
00:23:39,359 --> 00:23:40,240
Speaker 2: just work a bit harder.

511
00:23:40,400 --> 00:23:42,960
Speaker 1: I love what you're putting down. Let's take a look

512
00:23:43,040 --> 00:23:48,280
Speaker 1: at the key story. FIFA have introduced groundbreaking new regulations

513
00:23:48,320 --> 00:23:52,000
Speaker 1: that now require every team to include at least one

514
00:23:52,280 --> 00:23:57,280
Speaker 1: woman head or assistant coach in all FIFA women's tournaments.

515
00:23:57,640 --> 00:24:00,720
Speaker 1: That's huge. The decision comes into effect this year with

516
00:24:00,760 --> 00:24:03,160
Speaker 1: the under seventeen and under twenty feet for Women's World

517
00:24:03,200 --> 00:24:06,679
Speaker 1: Cups and FIFA Women's Championship Cup all taking place.

518
00:24:07,240 --> 00:24:11,480
Speaker 2: I think there'll be some scrambling people. Oh gosh, countries yeaps,

519
00:24:11,560 --> 00:24:14,600
Speaker 2: under seventeens and under twenties for sure, desperately trying to

520
00:24:14,640 --> 00:24:16,760
Speaker 2: find themselves a female coach.

521
00:24:16,880 --> 00:24:17,320
Speaker 1: Yeah.

522
00:24:17,400 --> 00:24:20,560
Speaker 2: The regulations mandate that all countries participating in FIFA's women's

523
00:24:20,560 --> 00:24:22,879
Speaker 2: competitions shall ensure that their head coach and or at

524
00:24:22,960 --> 00:24:25,560
Speaker 2: least one of their assistant coaches be female, that at

525
00:24:25,600 --> 00:24:27,560
Speaker 2: least one of the medical staff be female, and then

526
00:24:27,560 --> 00:24:30,400
Speaker 2: at least two officials seated on the team bench be female.

527
00:24:30,440 --> 00:24:33,040
Speaker 2: It's an interesting stipulation at the end there. This applies

528
00:24:33,080 --> 00:24:36,080
Speaker 2: to all youth and senior tournaments, national team competitions, and

529
00:24:36,280 --> 00:24:40,119
Speaker 2: club competitions. Significantly, it also includes the biggest women's sporting

530
00:24:40,119 --> 00:24:42,399
Speaker 2: event on the planet, the FIFA Women's Work Cups that

531
00:24:42,480 --> 00:24:44,919
Speaker 2: to be held in Brazil in twenty twenty seven.

532
00:24:45,119 --> 00:24:47,919
Speaker 1: Without going too far sideways again, I thought that was

533
00:24:47,960 --> 00:24:50,520
Speaker 1: interesting just rewinding to what we were talking about the

534
00:24:50,560 --> 00:24:53,399
Speaker 1: Tillies being the last major tournament for some of those players.

535
00:24:53,400 --> 00:24:55,600
Speaker 1: I did see Craig Foster, Chad and why World of

536
00:24:55,600 --> 00:24:58,200
Speaker 1: Sports about there will most likely be a lot of

537
00:24:58,240 --> 00:25:02,280
Speaker 1: that generation still playing next year in twenty seven for sure,

538
00:25:02,560 --> 00:25:05,320
Speaker 1: so potential to win the World Cup. Go to do

539
00:25:05,359 --> 00:25:08,600
Speaker 1: it this. Fever's Chief Football officer Jill Ellis says there

540
00:25:08,640 --> 00:25:11,560
Speaker 1: are simply not enough women in coaching today. We must

541
00:25:11,880 --> 00:25:16,840
Speaker 1: do more to accelerate change by creating clearer pathways, expanding opportunities,

542
00:25:16,880 --> 00:25:20,360
Speaker 1: and increasing the visibility for women on our sidelines. While

543
00:25:20,359 --> 00:25:23,680
Speaker 1: female head coaches in elite women's leagues average twenty two

544
00:25:23,720 --> 00:25:27,240
Speaker 1: percent in twenty twenty four, only twelve of thirty two

545
00:25:27,280 --> 00:25:30,000
Speaker 1: thirty seven point five percent head coaches are the twenty

546
00:25:30,119 --> 00:25:31,879
Speaker 1: twenty three Women's World Cup were women.

547
00:25:32,680 --> 00:25:35,160
Speaker 2: The initiative is part of Fever's broader strategy to ensure

548
00:25:35,160 --> 00:25:37,080
Speaker 2: that the rapid growth of the women's game is matched

549
00:25:37,119 --> 00:25:40,560
Speaker 2: by an increased representation of women in technical and leadership roles.

550
00:25:41,000 --> 00:25:44,119
Speaker 2: Since twenty one, FEVER has supported seven hundred and ninety

551
00:25:44,119 --> 00:25:47,760
Speaker 2: five female coaches across seventy three men associations through its

552
00:25:47,760 --> 00:25:52,200
Speaker 2: Coach Education Scholarship program, enabling them to access advanced qualifications

553
00:25:52,240 --> 00:25:53,560
Speaker 2: and professional opportunities.

554
00:25:53,680 --> 00:25:56,200
Speaker 1: That I quite like having that start at the back

555
00:25:56,280 --> 00:25:57,080
Speaker 1: end there, because I.

556
00:25:57,040 --> 00:25:58,520
Speaker 2: Think that's probably important thing.

557
00:25:58,680 --> 00:26:00,560
Speaker 1: Yeah, to circle back to your common off the top

558
00:26:00,600 --> 00:26:04,760
Speaker 1: bes around. People have been trying and it hasn't been working.

559
00:26:05,119 --> 00:26:08,080
Speaker 1: They've kind of, in my opinion, they've done a reverse approach.

560
00:26:08,720 --> 00:26:12,000
Speaker 1: So rather than say here's all these leadership programs, which

561
00:26:12,160 --> 00:26:14,720
Speaker 1: they obviously have done, but a lot of sporting bodies say, okay,

562
00:26:15,280 --> 00:26:18,000
Speaker 1: let's start a women in coaching program, women in a

563
00:26:18,040 --> 00:26:20,159
Speaker 1: leadership program to try and give them the skills and

564
00:26:20,160 --> 00:26:23,160
Speaker 1: the abilities to do it, which I think is non negotiable.

565
00:26:23,160 --> 00:26:25,080
Speaker 1: You have to be doing that. They've kind of said,

566
00:26:25,080 --> 00:26:28,840
Speaker 1: top down, So they're like, this is the regulation now

567
00:26:28,920 --> 00:26:31,880
Speaker 1: sorted out. Could have its pros and cons.

568
00:26:31,640 --> 00:26:34,320
Speaker 2: Could have its brozen cons. And look, quotas are often

569
00:26:35,840 --> 00:26:38,600
Speaker 2: you know that they're a double edged sword. But I

570
00:26:38,680 --> 00:26:41,560
Speaker 2: just think I think that to that point, Fee for

571
00:26:41,600 --> 00:26:44,480
Speaker 2: a Peer appear to have done the work in the background,

572
00:26:44,600 --> 00:26:47,720
Speaker 2: and so now they're saying, all right, we've done. We've

573
00:26:47,880 --> 00:26:52,920
Speaker 2: provided you with the potential, with the availability to upskill

574
00:26:52,960 --> 00:26:55,080
Speaker 2: these coaches. Now you've got to employ them.

575
00:26:55,359 --> 00:26:57,840
Speaker 1: Yeah, And I just think I'm just here for it

576
00:26:57,840 --> 00:27:00,960
Speaker 1: because I'm like, these are the rules, now sort it

577
00:27:01,000 --> 00:27:02,000
Speaker 1: out exactly.

578
00:27:02,080 --> 00:27:06,919
Speaker 2: And you know, quotas exist because they're trying to correct

579
00:27:06,960 --> 00:27:09,560
Speaker 2: it in balance. Yep, so here we are correct the imbalance.

580
00:27:09,560 --> 00:27:11,360
Speaker 1: What do not fofah, Let's take a look. I want

581
00:27:11,359 --> 00:27:12,920
Speaker 1: to watch in.

582
00:27:12,920 --> 00:27:15,719
Speaker 2: Cricket, the AZI will be looking to clean sweep their

583
00:27:15,760 --> 00:27:17,760
Speaker 2: T twenty series against the West Indies when they meet

584
00:27:17,760 --> 00:27:19,920
Speaker 2: for the third and final T twenty on Tuesday morning.

585
00:27:20,119 --> 00:27:23,920
Speaker 2: The match begins Tuesday at nine point thirty am even

586
00:27:23,960 --> 00:27:26,520
Speaker 2: ADT and you can watch it live on ESPN through

587
00:27:26,520 --> 00:27:27,359
Speaker 2: Disney Plus.

588
00:27:27,400 --> 00:27:31,080
Speaker 1: In the ua FA Champions League, we're at quarter final time.

589
00:27:31,119 --> 00:27:33,400
Speaker 1: The grudge match you've all been waiting for is here.

590
00:27:33,600 --> 00:27:37,359
Speaker 1: Raiding champions Arsenal will meet crosstown rivals Chelsea in the

591
00:27:37,359 --> 00:27:40,480
Speaker 1: first leg of the ua FOR Women's Champion League quarters

592
00:27:40,520 --> 00:27:44,520
Speaker 1: this Wednesday morning. Oh that's a nice time, seven ama DT. Yeah.

593
00:27:45,280 --> 00:27:48,040
Speaker 2: So at the Tilly celebration yesterday, Caitlin Ford wasn't there

594
00:27:48,040 --> 00:27:49,480
Speaker 2: and everyone was a bit worried about her because she

595
00:27:49,600 --> 00:27:52,679
Speaker 2: was definitely carrying a lot of the burden responsibility for

596
00:27:52,720 --> 00:27:57,000
Speaker 2: the loss on her own shoulders. And the Tillies came

597
00:27:57,000 --> 00:27:59,320
Speaker 2: out and said she'd actually left early to get back

598
00:28:00,000 --> 00:28:02,440
Speaker 2: assuming for this. But Sam Kerr hasn't left early.

599
00:28:03,600 --> 00:28:03,840
Speaker 1: Hmm.

600
00:28:04,400 --> 00:28:07,040
Speaker 2: It's Onya Bampasta's not playing her as much as she should.

601
00:28:07,200 --> 00:28:10,000
Speaker 2: Interesting anyway, go Chelsea.

602
00:28:10,600 --> 00:28:13,600
Speaker 1: That's another conversation itself. The speculation around the move to Boston.

603
00:28:13,840 --> 00:28:18,080
Speaker 2: She's absolutely going to NWSL anyway. I'll be sad.

604
00:28:18,600 --> 00:28:19,560
Speaker 1: You will be very sad.

605
00:28:19,720 --> 00:28:23,520
Speaker 2: Much madness, It's much madness time. How good? I watched

606
00:28:23,920 --> 00:28:26,680
Speaker 2: Tigers win the other day. Cool Kim Malki wearing something

607
00:28:26,720 --> 00:28:29,800
Speaker 2: ridiculous standing on the court. Look, I love Kim Malkie's energy.

608
00:28:29,840 --> 00:28:31,840
Speaker 2: She's the LC Tiger's coach. For anyone who's not sure

609
00:28:32,280 --> 00:28:33,000
Speaker 2: get off the court.

610
00:28:34,000 --> 00:28:36,520
Speaker 1: Uh yeah, I watched him. Really, you know coach Jackie

611
00:28:36,520 --> 00:28:39,200
Speaker 1: who does really cool like Instagram and TikTok content. Very

612
00:28:39,360 --> 00:28:42,200
Speaker 1: interesting about Kim Molky. She strongly hates her, and for

613
00:28:42,280 --> 00:28:42,920
Speaker 1: valid reasons.

614
00:28:42,920 --> 00:28:43,880
Speaker 2: She's pretty polarizing.

615
00:28:44,320 --> 00:28:46,400
Speaker 1: I don't even know if I'd say she's just polarizing.

616
00:28:46,440 --> 00:28:48,880
Speaker 1: I think she's like homophobic and quite dangerous.

617
00:28:49,240 --> 00:28:55,040
Speaker 2: Okay, The annual March Madness continues this week. I did

618
00:28:55,040 --> 00:28:56,720
Speaker 2: say to Kirsty God, I wish she wasn't the coach

619
00:28:56,760 --> 00:28:57,280
Speaker 2: of our team.

620
00:28:57,560 --> 00:28:57,760
