27
00:01:37,200 --> 00:01:38,759

28
00:01:40,360 --> 00:01:43,600

Speaker 2: The mom and Victory got the win over their Melbourne

30
00:01:46,240 --> 00:01:50,280

00:01:50,400 --> 00:01:52,560

Speaker 2: The Victory will face Sidney FC in the GF on

34
00:01:57,360 --> 00:02:00,440
Speaker 2: a Sunday. It was a bit of an upset as

35
00:02:00,520 --> 00:02:03,720
Speaker 2: Victory had really struggled heading into the final series. They

36
00:02:05,280 --> 00:02:07,960
Speaker 2: not won in five matches, so they've gone five straight

37
00:02:08,000 --> 00:02:11,320
Speaker 2: winless games. But they absolutely showed their quality when it

38
00:02:11,320 --> 00:02:15,240
Speaker 2: mattered most. One of City's best was friend of the

39
00:02:15,280 --> 00:02:17,240
Speaker 2: podcast Rebecca Stott.

40
00:02:17,320 --> 00:02:17,959
Speaker 4: We did an.

41
00:02:17,840 --> 00:02:21,799
Speaker 2: Awesome interview cluded an awesome interview with Stoddie in season two.

42
00:02:21,840 --> 00:02:23,639
Speaker 2: You should definitely have a listen at that. She stepped

43
00:02:23,680 --> 00:02:25,840
Speaker 2: up in her one hundredth A League women's match, but

44
00:02:25,919 --> 00:02:29,000
Speaker 2: unfortunately couldn't quite get the Grand final appearance, which would

45
00:02:29,000 --> 00:02:32,720
Speaker 2: have topped off an amazing return to her A League's

46
00:02:32,720 --> 00:02:36,560
Speaker 2: first A League season back since her battle with Hodginson's lymphomer.

47
00:02:37,440 --> 00:02:40,040
Speaker 2: Melina Ayres was immense for the victory, opening the scoring

48
00:02:40,080 --> 00:02:44,120
Speaker 2: in the thirtieth minute, Claudia Bunge added a second before

49
00:02:44,200 --> 00:02:47,040
Speaker 2: halftime and Leah Privetelli rounded out the win in the

50
00:02:47,080 --> 00:02:50,720
Speaker 2: fifty third minute. The victory will be looking to defend

51
00:02:50,760 --> 00:02:52,880
Speaker 2: their crown, as you said.

52
00:02:52,960 --> 00:02:55,880
Speaker 4: Against Sydney FC. On Sunday afternoon.

53
00:02:55,960 --> 00:03:00,000
Speaker 1: In Rugby League, the Brisbane Broncos suffered their first defeat

54
00:03:00,160 --> 00:03:03,720
Speaker 1: in three years. Their last loss was in Round three

55
00:03:03,840 --> 00:03:08,880
Speaker 1: in twenty nineteen. Look I bleed Blues, So when I

56
00:03:08,919 --> 00:03:10,480
Speaker 1: heard this, I was a little bit excited.

57
00:03:10,560 --> 00:03:12,400
Speaker 4: Let's said about a Queensland team losing.

58
00:03:12,200 --> 00:03:15,600
Speaker 1: Don't mind it. Their Queensland rivals, the Gold Coast Titans,

59
00:03:15,600 --> 00:03:18,079
Speaker 1: were exceptional in their twenty eight to twenty six victree

60
00:03:18,120 --> 00:03:21,600
Speaker 1: at Seabas Stadium on the weekend. Kobe Jane Morgan made

61
00:03:21,600 --> 00:03:23,720
Speaker 1: her debut for the Titans and started the game in

62
00:03:23,720 --> 00:03:26,240
Speaker 1: an ideal manner when she nailed a forty thirty kick,

63
00:03:26,320 --> 00:03:29,440
Speaker 1: giving her team excellent field position. So for those who

64
00:03:29,480 --> 00:03:32,040
Speaker 1: don't watch league, if you kick the ball from within

65
00:03:32,120 --> 00:03:35,560
Speaker 1: your own forty and then it bounces and lands over

66
00:03:35,600 --> 00:03:37,960
Speaker 1: the sideline in the oppositions thirty, you then get the

67
00:03:37,960 --> 00:03:41,120
Speaker 1: ball back. So only a few seconds later, Steph Hancock

68
00:03:41,160 --> 00:03:43,680
Speaker 1: powered across for a try in just the fourth minute.

69
00:03:44,040 --> 00:03:47,960
Speaker 1: Another standout for the Gold Coast was No Surprises Avannia Palidi,

70
00:03:48,520 --> 00:03:51,520
Speaker 1: a rugby sevens teammate of mine who is an absolute beast.

71
00:03:52,120 --> 00:03:54,160
Speaker 1: She loved her switch from the fullback to the centers,

72
00:03:54,240 --> 00:03:58,320
Speaker 1: running for one hundred and fourteen meters having four tackle breaks. Unfortunately,

73
00:03:58,360 --> 00:04:00,960
Speaker 1: she has finished up on the bench with a bit

74
00:04:01,000 --> 00:04:04,080
Speaker 1: of a lower leg injury, so hoping that all is

75
00:04:04,120 --> 00:04:05,880
Speaker 1: good for Vines and she can get back out there

76
00:04:05,960 --> 00:04:10,400
Speaker 1: to keep dominating. The entertaining contest also set a record

77
00:04:10,400 --> 00:04:12,840
Speaker 1: for the most points ever scored in an NLW match,

78
00:04:12,840 --> 00:04:15,720
Speaker 1: with a final tally of fifty four points. The final

79
00:04:15,840 --> 00:04:18,480
Speaker 1: round of the comp I can't believe It's already over,

80
00:04:19,440 --> 00:04:22,280
Speaker 1: will take place this weekend and Saint Georgia Laura have

81
00:04:22,360 --> 00:04:24,080
Speaker 1: gone top of the ladder for the first time in

82
00:04:24,120 --> 00:04:27,000
Speaker 1: their history. They were really impressive on Sunday, scoring a

83
00:04:27,040 --> 00:04:29,920
Speaker 1: record forty to four win over Newcastle. That was the

84
00:04:29,960 --> 00:04:32,960
Speaker 1: biggest win of all time in the NRLW and the

85
00:04:33,040 --> 00:04:35,760
Speaker 1: Dragons became the first team to score forty points in

86
00:04:35,880 --> 00:04:38,679
Speaker 1: a match. It's tight on the ladder and all three

87
00:04:38,839 --> 00:04:41,320
Speaker 1: final round games will have a bearing on the playoff battle.

88
00:04:41,360 --> 00:04:42,080
Speaker 1: We love to see that.

89
00:04:42,360 --> 00:04:45,080
Speaker 2: Yeah, all those three games are going to have consequences.

90
00:04:45,120 --> 00:04:47,680
Speaker 4: It's awesome to see. In moguls.

91
00:04:47,920 --> 00:04:51,720
Speaker 2: Back in the snow, Jakara Anthony has continued her outstanding form,

92
00:04:51,720 --> 00:04:55,000
Speaker 2: winning two silver medals in fronts over the weekend. Those

93
00:04:55,040 --> 00:04:57,400
Speaker 2: medals were her eleventh and twelfth and that meant she

94
00:04:57,440 --> 00:04:59,839
Speaker 2: became a stay's most successful winter sports.

95
00:04:59,600 --> 00:05:01,000
Speaker 4: Athlete in a single season.

96
00:05:01,680 --> 00:05:05,040
Speaker 2: She also secured her first ever Crystal Globe World Cup title,

97
00:05:05,080 --> 00:05:08,400
Speaker 2: which is the Grand Slam of moguls. Anthony topped the

98
00:05:08,400 --> 00:05:11,640
Speaker 2: overall Mogul standings with nine hundred and twenty five points

99
00:05:12,080 --> 00:05:14,920
Speaker 2: and the duel Moguls table with three hundred and forty

100
00:05:15,640 --> 00:05:18,840
Speaker 2: while Perene Lafont, who won gold in the last two

101
00:05:18,880 --> 00:05:21,320
Speaker 2: events of this circuit, finished second with nine oh six

102
00:05:21,640 --> 00:05:26,440
Speaker 2: points and two nine six points respectively. Jaikara was over

103
00:05:26,480 --> 00:05:29,160
Speaker 2: the moon after the event in France, saying that it

104
00:05:29,160 --> 00:05:31,159
Speaker 2: was an incredible way to finish off the season. The

105
00:05:31,200 --> 00:05:33,800
Speaker 2: crowd were there were incredible, and to get to ski

106
00:05:33,839 --> 00:05:36,960
Speaker 2: against Peren, who is one of the greatest female athletes

107
00:05:37,279 --> 00:05:40,720
Speaker 2: of the sport, was really special. That was a first

108
00:05:40,760 --> 00:05:44,120
Speaker 2: time taking the Big Globe and the first time they've

109
00:05:44,120 --> 00:05:47,000
Speaker 2: had a duel Mogul Globe, so to be able to

110
00:05:47,000 --> 00:05:49,120
Speaker 2: take that out, which just really shows how consistent I've

111
00:05:49,120 --> 00:05:51,119
Speaker 2: been able to be this season at a really high level.

112
00:05:51,360 --> 00:05:53,640
Speaker 1: To you. What I really like about that quote from

113
00:05:53,680 --> 00:05:59,000
Speaker 1: her is I like when athletes it's the balance of humility,

114
00:05:59,000 --> 00:06:02,360
Speaker 1: but I think athletes often go too far, are too

115
00:06:02,440 --> 00:06:04,280
Speaker 1: humble almost. I like that she was like, you know what,

116
00:06:04,400 --> 00:06:07,359
Speaker 1: I dominated. I performed at a high level and.

117
00:06:09,240 --> 00:06:10,960
Speaker 4: Exceptional. Yeah, like, I beat you all.

118
00:06:12,040 --> 00:06:13,440
Speaker 1: I don't think that's what she meant, but.

119
00:06:13,680 --> 00:06:14,320
Speaker 4: Well she did.

120
00:06:15,360 --> 00:06:17,520
Speaker 2: There's anything wrong with that, But yeah, I agree, you're right,

121
00:06:17,600 --> 00:06:19,679
Speaker 2: there's a lot of credit to the girls.

122
00:06:19,600 --> 00:06:22,040
Speaker 1: Kind of situations sometimes, Yeah, too much.

123
00:06:22,080 --> 00:06:25,839
Speaker 2: I did a little bit of honesty and yeah, like

124
00:06:25,880 --> 00:06:30,039
Speaker 2: you said, not an outrageous amount of humility is.

125
00:06:30,120 --> 00:06:35,200
Speaker 1: Nice in AFLW. Unfortunately, COVID is still causing a bit

126
00:06:35,240 --> 00:06:38,320
Speaker 1: of havoc with the season. The Brisbane Lines and Collingwood

127
00:06:38,360 --> 00:06:41,240
Speaker 1: Magpie's qualifying final was due to be played on Saturday,

128
00:06:41,320 --> 00:06:43,520
Speaker 1: but has been postponed due to an outbreak in the

129
00:06:43,560 --> 00:06:46,599
Speaker 1: Pies team. A decision on when this match will be

130
00:06:46,640 --> 00:06:49,800
Speaker 1: played will be announced on Monday, but we're recording on Monday,

131
00:06:49,880 --> 00:06:52,279
Speaker 1: so you'll know by the time this podcast comes out.

132
00:06:52,839 --> 00:06:56,200
Speaker 1: In the other final, Freemantle crush the Kangaroos at Arden

133
00:06:56,240 --> 00:06:58,719
Speaker 1: Street and will now advance to a prelim final against

134
00:06:58,720 --> 00:07:02,000
Speaker 1: the Adelaide Crows, who were the minor premiers. The Dockers

135
00:07:02,000 --> 00:07:04,880
Speaker 1: were clinical in front of goals, scoring eleven goals three

136
00:07:05,080 --> 00:07:08,240
Speaker 1: sixty nine to the Kangaroo's four goals seven thirty one.

137
00:07:08,839 --> 00:07:12,760
Speaker 1: Inaccuracy hurt North at as the home side had more

138
00:07:12,760 --> 00:07:15,560
Speaker 1: inside fifties and marks inside fifty but couldn't convert that

139
00:07:15,720 --> 00:07:21,080
Speaker 1: territorial domination into goals. The Dockers had ten individual goalkickers,

140
00:07:21,120 --> 00:07:23,640
Speaker 1: with MICHAELA Hide the only player to double up, kicking

141
00:07:23,680 --> 00:07:27,920
Speaker 1: two once again. Kiara Bauers and Hayley Miller found plenty

142
00:07:27,920 --> 00:07:30,480
Speaker 1: of ball and finished with twenty one disposals each for

143
00:07:30,560 --> 00:07:34,280
Speaker 1: Freo and some expansion team news for the next season

144
00:07:34,320 --> 00:07:38,000
Speaker 1: of AFLW, which will either start in three weeks time

145
00:07:38,080 --> 00:07:41,000
Speaker 1: it feels like or around ten months time. Again, as

146
00:07:41,080 --> 00:07:44,239
Speaker 1: it is meant to do, just keep playing, Just keep playing.

147
00:07:44,920 --> 00:07:47,440
Speaker 1: Essendon announced Natalie Wood will be their head coach in

148
00:07:47,520 --> 00:07:51,000
Speaker 1: their first AFLW season. Wood joins the club from the

Speaker 2: In cricket, the Ossies march on at the ODI World Cup.

154
00:08:06,400 --> 00:08:08,760
Speaker 2: They got the better of a strong Indian team on

155
00:08:08,840 --> 00:08:11,240
Speaker 2: Saturday and in the process ensured their spot in the

156
00:08:11,240 --> 00:08:14,239

Speaker 2: India scored seven for two hundred and seventy seven from

158
00:08:17,120 --> 00:08:19,960
Speaker 2: their fifty overs and the Australians didn't have it all

159
00:08:19,960 --> 00:08:21,640
Speaker 2: their own way in a run chase that included an

160
00:08:21,680 --> 00:08:25,239
Speaker 2: excellent one hundred and twenty one run opening partnership between

161
00:08:25,320 --> 00:08:29,640
Speaker 2: Rachel Haynes and Alyssa Healey. Unfortunately, both players lost their

162
00:08:29,640 --> 00:08:32,360
Speaker 2: wickets inside ten balls and the Ozzie start to look

163
00:08:32,400 --> 00:08:35,720
Speaker 2: a little bit nervous at that point, until of course

164
00:08:35,840 --> 00:08:39,559
Speaker 2: captain fantastic Meg Lanning came in and Alise Perry joined

165
00:08:39,600 --> 00:08:42,520
Speaker 2: her and they put together another one hundred run partnership

166
00:08:42,559 --> 00:08:45,400
Speaker 2: between the two of them. Then where they got involved

167
00:08:45,559 --> 00:08:48,480
Speaker 2: that two for two to twenty five. Rain stopped play

168
00:08:48,920 --> 00:08:52,880
Speaker 2: and again the Ossie's got a bit wobbly. Perry was

169
00:08:52,920 --> 00:08:55,720
Speaker 2: out for twenty eight and the run rate started to

170
00:08:55,800 --> 00:08:59,600
Speaker 2: really creep up. But incomes Beth Mooney, healed face and

171
00:08:59,640 --> 00:09:01,520
Speaker 2: all and just really got the job done.

172
00:09:01,760 --> 00:09:03,600
Speaker 4: Needing eight off.

173
00:09:03,480 --> 00:09:05,960
Speaker 2: The last over, she hit two falls off the first

174
00:09:06,000 --> 00:09:08,320
Speaker 2: three balls at the final over, clinching the win with

175
00:09:08,400 --> 00:09:11,640
Speaker 2: three balls to spare. The Aussie's also secured a slice

176
00:09:11,640 --> 00:09:13,400
Speaker 2: of history during the match, with their total of two

177
00:09:13,520 --> 00:09:16,280
Speaker 2: hundred and eighty being the highest successful run chase in

178
00:09:16,320 --> 00:09:18,079
Speaker 2: the history of Women's World Cup.

179
00:09:18,640 --> 00:09:20,040
Speaker 4: They will play South Africa.

180
00:09:19,679 --> 00:09:22,080
Speaker 2: This morning Tuesday at nine am, before rounding out their

181
00:09:22,080 --> 00:09:24,200
Speaker 2: pool matches on Friday against Bangladesh.

182
00:09:24,360 --> 00:09:26,920
Speaker 1: Is Beth Mooney back to eating solid food? Do we know?

183
00:09:27,559 --> 00:09:30,559
Speaker 1: Surely she's off the smoothies? Now, I hope. So after a.

184
00:09:30,520 --> 00:09:34,720
Speaker 2: Fractured jaw, you just be wanting to crunch into something crunchy, wouldn't.

185
00:09:34,400 --> 00:09:36,240
Speaker 1: Yeah, oh, pork crackling.

186
00:09:37,520 --> 00:09:40,760
Speaker 2: To be fair, you know, at least when you broke

187
00:09:40,800 --> 00:09:43,480
Speaker 2: your face into a million pieces. Beth gets to wear

188
00:09:43,480 --> 00:09:46,120
Speaker 2: a helmet while she's playing her sport, so the little

189
00:09:46,120 --> 00:09:47,040
Speaker 2: bit comfort there.

190
00:09:47,160 --> 00:09:48,800
Speaker 1: There is a little bit that's actually a good point.

191
00:09:48,800 --> 00:09:51,280
Speaker 1: And she doesn't get tackled, and she doesn't get tackled. Well,

192
00:09:51,320 --> 00:09:53,920
Speaker 1: the ball comes very fast and it's fun. I don't

193
00:09:54,040 --> 00:09:57,839
Speaker 1: envy them. It's a hard and fast ball. In basketball,

194
00:09:57,880 --> 00:10:01,560
Speaker 1: the Melbourne Boomers have won their first WNBL Minor premiership

195
00:10:01,640 --> 00:10:04,360
Speaker 1: since twenty eleven after Perth Links blew a chance of

196
00:10:04,440 --> 00:10:08,560
Speaker 1: top spot by losing two Townsville. The Links just couldn't

197
00:10:08,559 --> 00:10:10,520
Speaker 1: get the job done against the towns Will Fire, who

198
00:10:10,520 --> 00:10:13,439
Speaker 1: are led by an impressive Steph Reed performance, scoring twenty

199
00:10:13,480 --> 00:10:17,560
Speaker 1: three points, seven rebounds and five assists. The Boomers will

200
00:10:17,559 --> 00:10:20,760
Speaker 1: host fourth placed Adelaide in game one of the best

201
00:10:20,760 --> 00:10:24,920
Speaker 1: of three semifinal series starting on Thursday. Perth return home

202
00:10:24,960 --> 00:10:27,439
Speaker 1: for the start of their three game semifinal series against

203
00:10:27,480 --> 00:10:31,840
Speaker 1: third place Canberra, also starting on Thursdays. Both semifinals are

204
00:10:31,880 --> 00:10:34,360
Speaker 1: sure to be very tightly fought contests, so make sure

205
00:10:34,480 --> 00:10:36,880
Speaker 1: you tune in. Will have the details in what to watch.

206
00:10:37,200 --> 00:10:41,040
Speaker 4: Absolutely and thoughts on three game series for finals?

207
00:10:41,080 --> 00:10:41,600
Speaker 1: Yeah? Rate it?

208
00:10:41,720 --> 00:10:42,840
Speaker 4: Yeah? Agree?

209
00:10:42,960 --> 00:10:46,360
Speaker 1: Good? Oh, look, I don't know sometimes because for me,

210
00:10:46,480 --> 00:10:49,040
Speaker 1: the team that ends up winning finals, you should be

211
00:10:49,080 --> 00:10:50,880
Speaker 1: the best team on any given day.

212
00:10:50,960 --> 00:10:52,040
Speaker 4: You should be able to perform.

213
00:10:52,120 --> 00:10:57,360
Speaker 1: Yeah. I think for the level of the level of

214
00:10:57,440 --> 00:10:59,480
Speaker 1: play that these guys are at, and if you look

215
00:10:59,480 --> 00:11:02,360
Speaker 1: at the NBA final series, like it's it's pretty iconic

216
00:11:02,400 --> 00:11:05,000
Speaker 1: the way that they do that, I think the level

217
00:11:05,000 --> 00:11:07,719
Speaker 1: of competition at in the WNBL is so fierce. I

218
00:11:07,720 --> 00:11:10,760
Speaker 1: think it makes sense to have three games, and I

219
00:11:10,760 --> 00:11:12,480
Speaker 1: think it also means that they get to play more

220
00:11:12,480 --> 00:11:14,040
Speaker 1: that we saw they had to end up having a

221
00:11:14,040 --> 00:11:15,840
Speaker 1: condensed season, so it almost gives them a chance to

222
00:11:15,840 --> 00:11:16,760
Speaker 1: play more games too.

223
00:11:16,920 --> 00:11:17,960
Speaker 4: Excellently agree.

224
00:11:18,320 --> 00:11:22,520
Speaker 1: Let's take a look at the key story in swimming.

225
00:11:22,880 --> 00:11:25,240
Speaker 1: Leah Thomas is a twenty two year old from Texas

226
00:11:25,280 --> 00:11:28,760
Speaker 1: who is a fifth year senior at the University of Pennsylvania.

227
00:11:29,000 --> 00:11:31,600
Speaker 1: Last week, she became the first transgender swimmer to win

228
00:11:31,640 --> 00:11:35,560
Speaker 1: a Division one NCAA swimming title the pinnacle of US

229
00:11:35,640 --> 00:11:38,760
Speaker 1: college sport. Thomas started as a favorite in the five

230
00:11:38,840 --> 00:11:42,760
Speaker 1: hundred yard, which is one hundred and fifty seven meter freestyle.

231
00:11:43,040 --> 00:11:43,680
Speaker 1: Is that right?

232
00:11:43,880 --> 00:11:47,240
Speaker 2: Yes, America with their non metric system, it's weird.

233
00:11:47,360 --> 00:11:48,360
Speaker 4: It's so strange.

234
00:11:48,400 --> 00:11:49,040
Speaker 1: We don't like it.

235
00:11:49,080 --> 00:11:49,920
Speaker 4: One hundred yards.

236
00:11:50,480 --> 00:11:53,040
Speaker 1: Back to the facts. So she started as a favorite

237
00:11:53,080 --> 00:11:55,839
Speaker 1: in the five hundred yard freestyle and blitz the field

238
00:11:55,840 --> 00:11:57,880
Speaker 1: to hit the wall first, as she has been doing

239
00:11:57,960 --> 00:12:02,120
Speaker 1: all season at meets against fellow IVY League universities. Her

240
00:12:02,160 --> 00:12:05,560
Speaker 1: time of four minutes thirty three to twenty four was

241
00:12:05,640 --> 00:12:08,720
Speaker 1: almost two seconds clear of the runner up Mr. Wayant,

242
00:12:08,760 --> 00:12:11,320
Speaker 1: a silver medal winner in the four hundred meter individual

243
00:12:11,320 --> 00:12:15,240
Speaker 1: medley at the Tokyo Olympics. To put her win in perspective,

244
00:12:15,280 --> 00:12:17,880
Speaker 1: that time sits well behind the four minute twenty four

245
00:12:17,920 --> 00:12:21,480
Speaker 1: oh six mark of American swimming legend Katie Ladecci. All

246
00:12:21,520 --> 00:12:25,120
Speaker 1: of this doesn't seem newsworthy, However, Thomas is making waves

247
00:12:25,160 --> 00:12:27,520
Speaker 1: in the sporting world. This is due to the fact

248
00:12:27,559 --> 00:12:30,280
Speaker 1: that Thomas was a swimmer on the men's team from

249
00:12:30,280 --> 00:12:33,640
Speaker 1: twenty eighteen to twenty twenty. After hormone therapy, Thomas returned

250
00:12:33,640 --> 00:12:35,680
Speaker 1: to the pool as part of the Penn women's team

251
00:12:35,679 --> 00:12:38,320
Speaker 1: in twenty twenty one, and in the process has divided

252
00:12:38,320 --> 00:12:41,800
Speaker 1: commentators and sent governing bodies like Feena scrambling to enact

253
00:12:41,800 --> 00:12:45,760
Speaker 1: suitable policies that bridge the complex gap between inclusivity and

254
00:12:45,800 --> 00:12:46,920
Speaker 1: a level playing field.

255
00:12:47,400 --> 00:12:50,600
Speaker 2: So she's attracted a ton of support from her university,

256
00:12:50,840 --> 00:12:54,360
Speaker 2: the Ivy League, transgender advocacy groups, and hundreds of fellow

257
00:12:54,360 --> 00:12:58,160
Speaker 2: on former swimmers backing her right to compete in women's races. However,

258
00:12:58,160 --> 00:13:00,880
Speaker 2: there have been plenty of people kings that athletes who

259
00:13:00,920 --> 00:13:02,679
Speaker 2: have spent the vast majority of their life as a

260
00:13:02,679 --> 00:13:07,280
Speaker 2: biological male have inherent advantages over their female rivals. For

261
00:13:07,320 --> 00:13:10,000
Speaker 2: a swimmer, the critics have noted that her large hands,

262
00:13:10,080 --> 00:13:14,079
Speaker 2: legacy male strength, and suggested increased aerobic capacity provide her with.

263
00:13:14,080 --> 00:13:15,720
Speaker 4: An unfair advantage.

264
00:13:16,280 --> 00:13:18,880
Speaker 2: Tracy Stockwell, who is a triple Olympic champion and the

265
00:13:18,880 --> 00:13:21,400
Speaker 2: president of Swing Australia, added her name to a five

266
00:13:21,480 --> 00:13:27,040
Speaker 2: thousand plus strong joint prediction asking for the sanctity of women's.

267
00:13:26,679 --> 00:13:29,240
Speaker 4: Sports to be preserved while at.

268
00:13:29,120 --> 00:13:32,520
Speaker 2: The same time welcoming and finding ways to accommodate trans competitors.

269
00:13:33,160 --> 00:13:37,520
Speaker 2: She stated I believe in developing policies that ensure its inclusive, fair,

270
00:13:37,600 --> 00:13:41,640
Speaker 2: and equitable for all females, including those who identify as female,

271
00:13:41,760 --> 00:13:44,480
Speaker 2: to be involved in swimming at all levels. We need

272
00:13:44,480 --> 00:13:47,480
Speaker 2: to develop policies with medical experts in the field alongside

273
00:13:47,559 --> 00:13:52,400
Speaker 2: all relevant stakeholders to drive this inclusion. Thomas didn't attend

274
00:13:53,040 --> 00:13:56,280
Speaker 2: the press conference post race, and all she really shared

275
00:13:56,280 --> 00:13:58,240
Speaker 2: with the media was how it meant the world to

276
00:13:58,360 --> 00:13:59,320
Speaker 2: be able to compete.

277
00:14:00,200 --> 00:14:01,040
Speaker 4: In a recent interview with.

278
00:14:01,000 --> 00:14:03,880
Speaker 2: Sports Illustrate, she did say, the very simple answer is

279
00:14:03,880 --> 00:14:04,760
Speaker 2: that I'm not a man.

280
00:14:04,920 --> 00:14:07,040
Speaker 4: I'm a woman, so I belong on the women's team.

281
00:14:07,200 --> 00:14:10,959
Speaker 2: Trans people deserve that same respect every other athlete gets.

282
00:14:11,320 --> 00:14:18,120
Speaker 1: There's been multiple different sporting personalities who've spoken publicly and

283
00:14:18,679 --> 00:14:21,080
Speaker 1: a lot of people coming out in support as well.

284
00:14:21,840 --> 00:14:25,080
Speaker 1: Tennis legend Martina and Avrettolova said last week that the

285
00:14:25,160 --> 00:14:28,440
Speaker 1: NCAA should change its rules when she suggested that Thomas

286
00:14:28,520 --> 00:14:31,720
Speaker 1: have an asterisk put beside her name, arguing that the

287
00:14:31,760 --> 00:14:34,880
Speaker 1: swimmer has a biological advantage over her opponents because she

288
00:14:35,000 --> 00:14:38,560
Speaker 1: was born a male. She said, it's not about excluding

289
00:14:38,600 --> 00:14:42,000
Speaker 1: transgender women from winning, ever, but it is about not

290
00:14:42,040 --> 00:14:44,280
Speaker 1: allowing them to win when they were not anywhere near

291
00:14:44,320 --> 00:14:47,840
Speaker 1: winning as men in normal society, in normal day life,

292
00:14:47,960 --> 00:14:52,200
Speaker 1: absolutely one hundred percent inclusion, but when it comes to sport,

293
00:14:52,280 --> 00:14:56,320
Speaker 1: we have categories based on biology. More than three hundred

294
00:14:56,400 --> 00:14:58,680
Speaker 1: current and formers swim As signed an open letter calling

295
00:14:58,720 --> 00:15:02,360
Speaker 1: for Thomas to be allowed to compete. Among Thomas's supporters

296
00:15:02,360 --> 00:15:05,960
Speaker 1: was Olympic silver medalist Erica Sullivan, who finished third behind

297
00:15:06,000 --> 00:15:09,920
Speaker 1: the transgender swimmer in Atlanta. Sullivan has been a staunch

298
00:15:09,960 --> 00:15:12,600
Speaker 1: supporter of Thomas. Comparing it with her own decision to

299
00:15:12,600 --> 00:15:15,600
Speaker 1: come out as gay, She said, I was fortunate enough

300
00:15:15,640 --> 00:15:18,040
Speaker 1: to be welcomed with open arms in the swim community

301
00:15:18,040 --> 00:15:20,320
Speaker 1: when I came out as gay. Just with my own

302
00:15:20,440 --> 00:15:23,000
Speaker 1: personal good experience of coming out and feeling all that

303
00:15:23,120 --> 00:15:25,800
Speaker 1: love and support within my swim community, I feel like

304
00:15:25,920 --> 00:15:27,360
Speaker 1: Leah deserves the same thing.

305
00:15:28,200 --> 00:15:32,200
Speaker 2: So last month, when we're talking about rules and guidelines, etc.

306
00:15:32,680 --> 00:15:35,080
Speaker 2: The governing body of swimming in the United States USA

307
00:15:35,120 --> 00:15:38,080
Speaker 2: Swimming unveiled new guidelines which will include a more stringent

308
00:15:38,120 --> 00:15:43,000
Speaker 2: thresholder for testosterone. The guidelines required testosterone concentrations of less

309
00:15:43,040 --> 00:15:47,560
Speaker 2: than five nanomoles per leter for thirty six months. That

310
00:15:47,680 --> 00:15:52,440
Speaker 2: period represents the longest of any sporting federation in the world. However,

311
00:15:52,480 --> 00:15:55,720
Speaker 2: the NCAA, the governing body of US college sports, subsequently

312
00:15:55,760 --> 00:15:59,040
Speaker 2: announced the new USA Swimming testosterone standard would not be

313
00:15:59,040 --> 00:16:01,320
Speaker 2: applied to the Championshi It's saying to do so would

314
00:16:01,360 --> 00:16:05,280
Speaker 2: have unfair and potentially detrimental impacts on athletes preparing for

315
00:16:05,320 --> 00:16:10,280
Speaker 2: the meat pretty heavy topic, something that is becoming more

316
00:16:10,360 --> 00:16:15,560
Speaker 2: and more I guess spoken about. I think for me overall,

317
00:16:15,840 --> 00:16:18,480
Speaker 2: I think sport, all sport needs to find a way

318
00:16:18,760 --> 00:16:23,400
Speaker 2: to be really upfront and transparent about what's required, the

319
00:16:23,520 --> 00:16:28,280
Speaker 2: regulations involved, etc. So that there isn't this feeling of

320
00:16:28,280 --> 00:16:31,520
Speaker 2: pressure on these athletes. Not knowing, I think is probably

321
00:16:31,640 --> 00:16:34,600
Speaker 2: the key thing. I think, the not knowing what I

322
00:16:34,640 --> 00:16:36,920
Speaker 2: need to do to compete, or if I can compete,

323
00:16:37,160 --> 00:16:39,400
Speaker 2: or how I'm going to be accepted when I compete,

324
00:16:40,160 --> 00:16:43,800
Speaker 2: It's probably very detrimental to an athlete's mental health.

325
00:16:43,960 --> 00:16:48,800
Speaker 1: USA and you and I discussed earlier, even the Olympics.

326
00:16:48,800 --> 00:16:52,440
Speaker 1: So it's since two thousand and four transgender athletes have

327
00:16:52,440 --> 00:16:55,920
Speaker 1: been allowed to compete at the Olympics, but there hasn't

328
00:16:56,000 --> 00:16:59,360
Speaker 1: yet been a transgender athlete who has meddled and there's

329
00:16:59,360 --> 00:17:02,920
Speaker 1: probably a question around the fact the impact that things

330
00:17:03,040 --> 00:17:06,880
Speaker 1: like the media scrutiny and public discussion have on their performance,

331
00:17:06,880 --> 00:17:09,639
Speaker 1: which is why this one is such a big story

332
00:17:09,680 --> 00:17:12,080
Speaker 1: in the media at the moment because Lea has actually

333
00:17:12,119 --> 00:17:14,520
Speaker 1: gone and won the national championship, so it's obviously going

334
00:17:14,560 --> 00:17:16,040
Speaker 1: to start to become more of a conversation.

335
00:17:16,640 --> 00:17:19,280
Speaker 2: I really think governing bodies of all sports need to

336
00:17:19,280 --> 00:17:21,879
Speaker 2: be onto this and get it out there and be

337
00:17:22,000 --> 00:17:24,800
Speaker 2: upfront and as I said, very transparent on their decisions

338
00:17:24,840 --> 00:17:26,480
Speaker 2: and their decision making process.

339
00:17:27,160 --> 00:17:29,720
Speaker 1: This week in the ice Bath with Budgy Smuggler, which

340
00:17:29,800 --> 00:17:32,719
Speaker 1: out with netballer Amy Pamenta, who was prepping with her

341
00:17:32,760 --> 00:17:36,320
Speaker 1: GWS Giants teammates for a Grand Final rematch against the

342
00:17:36,320 --> 00:17:39,160
Speaker 1: Swifts in the opening round of Super Netball this weekend.

343
00:17:40,280 --> 00:17:43,480
Speaker 1: In twenty nineteen, Amy was named Rookie of the Year

344
00:17:43,600 --> 00:17:45,600
Speaker 1: and then in twenty twenty was named in the Super

345
00:17:45,600 --> 00:17:49,119
Speaker 1: Netbawl Team of the Year. After losing her mum in

346
00:17:49,160 --> 00:17:53,119
Speaker 1: twenty thirteen after years of fighting cancer, Amy now runs

347
00:17:53,119 --> 00:17:56,040
Speaker 1: the Tide Project to raise money for the Cancer Council.

348
00:17:56,520 --> 00:18:00,119
Speaker 1: I caught up with Amy earlier this week. Amy, thank

349
00:18:00,160 --> 00:18:02,119
Speaker 1: you so much. For coming on and having a chat

350
00:18:02,320 --> 00:18:04,760
Speaker 1: to us on the wrap. To kick us off, can

351
00:18:04,800 --> 00:18:06,560
Speaker 1: you tell us how you first started playing netball.

352
00:18:07,400 --> 00:18:09,560
Speaker 5: I started playing netball back on our I was a

353
00:18:09,560 --> 00:18:11,200
Speaker 5: bit of a late bloomer, to be honest. Didn't start

354
00:18:11,200 --> 00:18:14,959
Speaker 5: playing properly until I was under fourteen. So thirteen, I

355
00:18:15,040 --> 00:18:18,159
Speaker 5: was you know, doing swimming, touch footy, love touch footy,

356
00:18:18,880 --> 00:18:20,040
Speaker 5: and high jump. Thought I was going to be a

357
00:18:20,080 --> 00:18:23,120
Speaker 5: high jumper, but stopped growing so that jay got.

358
00:18:22,960 --> 00:18:24,240
Speaker 3: Cut down pretty quickly.

359
00:18:24,320 --> 00:18:26,240
Speaker 5: So it sort of just fell into it because that's

360
00:18:26,280 --> 00:18:28,800
Speaker 5: what all the girls at school were doing. And yeah,

361
00:18:29,040 --> 00:18:30,919
Speaker 5: from there I just like completely fell in love with it,

362
00:18:30,960 --> 00:18:31,720
Speaker 5: to be honest.

363
00:18:32,000 --> 00:18:35,040
Speaker 1: How long did it take you to start playing full

364
00:18:35,040 --> 00:18:38,160
Speaker 1: in love to now becoming a professional netballer. Oh?

365
00:18:38,200 --> 00:18:41,000
Speaker 5: I think I fell in love about you know, fifteen sixteen.

366
00:18:41,080 --> 00:18:42,840
Speaker 5: I realized this is a sport that was, you know,

367
00:18:42,960 --> 00:18:46,159
Speaker 5: all about women. It was cool to be strong and tough,

368
00:18:46,240 --> 00:18:48,720
Speaker 5: and you know, I don't feel like we had the

369
00:18:48,760 --> 00:18:51,480
Speaker 5: AFL and the NRL to like, this was the women's

370
00:18:51,480 --> 00:18:53,919
Speaker 5: sport that was really like in the spotlight and it

371
00:18:53,960 --> 00:18:56,640
Speaker 5: was cool to be an athlete. So I think that's

372
00:18:56,640 --> 00:18:57,919
Speaker 5: why I fell in love with it got to be

373
00:18:58,119 --> 00:19:02,959
Speaker 5: playing with girls, and then yeah, I had a few setbacks.

374
00:19:03,000 --> 00:19:04,480
Speaker 5: I can missed out on a few teams. I was

375
00:19:04,480 --> 00:19:06,280
Speaker 5: more just like happy to be playing and like kind

376
00:19:06,280 --> 00:19:07,520
Speaker 5: of along for the journey. And then I was like,

377
00:19:07,560 --> 00:19:09,840
Speaker 5: oh my god, this is actually like turning into something

378
00:19:09,840 --> 00:19:10,680
Speaker 5: I could do for my job.

379
00:19:10,760 --> 00:19:13,639
Speaker 3: So I think it was probably like nine.

380
00:19:13,440 --> 00:19:16,399
Speaker 5: Years I reckon till today. So nine years of yeah,

381
00:19:16,680 --> 00:19:17,680
Speaker 5: playing Eddie and loving it.

382
00:19:18,320 --> 00:19:20,960
Speaker 1: When you get into the competition in twenty nineteen, you

383
00:19:20,960 --> 00:19:22,880
Speaker 1: were named Rookie of the Year. That's a pretty big

384
00:19:22,920 --> 00:19:24,840
Speaker 1: statement to make in your first year.

385
00:19:25,520 --> 00:19:28,919
Speaker 5: I think a lot of kids in the SSN they

386
00:19:29,000 --> 00:19:30,879
Speaker 5: coming really young, Like I was a training partner with

387
00:19:30,920 --> 00:19:32,880
Speaker 5: the Giants for two years of really like was put

388
00:19:32,880 --> 00:19:35,480
Speaker 5: in my place. I was getting to train with the

389
00:19:35,560 --> 00:19:37,080
Speaker 5: likes of Kim Green and so in a gus through

390
00:19:37,200 --> 00:19:38,960
Speaker 5: like huge names in netball, and I was like, oh

391
00:19:39,040 --> 00:19:41,520
Speaker 5: my gosh, I am so far from being in that.

392
00:19:41,640 --> 00:19:43,080
Speaker 5: So by the time I got in the team, like

393
00:19:43,119 --> 00:19:45,080
Speaker 5: that was my third year with the Giants, I was like,

394
00:19:45,640 --> 00:19:47,280
Speaker 5: I'm ready to go, Like I've learned so much from

395
00:19:47,320 --> 00:19:49,600
Speaker 5: these girls. I want to like prove that I can,

396
00:19:50,040 --> 00:19:52,760
Speaker 5: you know, stand up with them because I'd spent two

397
00:19:52,840 --> 00:19:56,480
Speaker 5: years literally taking everything I could, watching everything they did.

398
00:19:56,280 --> 00:19:58,360
Speaker 3: So I could do it on the court too. That's

399
00:19:58,400 --> 00:19:58,960
Speaker 3: really cool.

400
00:19:59,440 --> 00:20:02,879
Speaker 1: This week we've got the rematch the Sydney Darby coming

401
00:20:02,960 --> 00:20:07,199
Speaker 1: up against Swift. How are the girls feeling, How are

402
00:20:07,200 --> 00:20:09,600
Speaker 1: you feeling and what's I guess what's the plan heading

403
00:20:09,600 --> 00:20:11,120
Speaker 1: into the game besides taking the win?

404
00:20:12,000 --> 00:20:14,240
Speaker 5: Definitely take the win. I think, you know, it still

405
00:20:14,359 --> 00:20:17,639
Speaker 5: hurts that Grand final. It literally hurts so much to

406
00:20:17,720 --> 00:20:20,040
Speaker 5: make my first Grand Final at this level, and then

407
00:20:20,160 --> 00:20:22,359
Speaker 5: you know, to see them win, it was like the

408
00:20:22,400 --> 00:20:24,639
Speaker 5: confetti on my face. Man, I want the confetti. That's

409
00:20:24,680 --> 00:20:26,679
Speaker 5: what I'm like, I go to bed dreaming about. So

410
00:20:27,280 --> 00:20:29,120
Speaker 5: I think there's definitely like this is a big game

411
00:20:29,160 --> 00:20:30,720
Speaker 5: for us. I think, you know, this is to like

412
00:20:30,840 --> 00:20:33,639
Speaker 5: show that we are, you know, here to have a

413
00:20:33,640 --> 00:20:36,200
Speaker 5: good season. We've got lots more who's come across from

414
00:20:36,200 --> 00:20:38,920
Speaker 5: the Swift, so you know that's always a big deal

415
00:20:38,960 --> 00:20:41,200
Speaker 5: when a player comes across, and I know she'll want

416
00:20:41,200 --> 00:20:43,480
Speaker 5: to have her best game. She knows that team inside out,

417
00:20:43,520 --> 00:20:45,439
Speaker 5: so I'm excited to see what she could do.

418
00:20:45,600 --> 00:20:48,520
Speaker 3: And then I think, like we just want to play well.

419
00:20:48,280 --> 00:20:50,000
Speaker 5: Because it's the first game. You want to show the

420
00:20:50,040 --> 00:20:51,880
Speaker 5: rest of the league what you're all about. So really

421
00:20:51,880 --> 00:20:53,120
Speaker 5: big game coming up for us.

422
00:20:53,640 --> 00:20:56,159
Speaker 1: Away from the court, you do some incredible work with

423
00:20:56,359 --> 00:20:58,679
Speaker 1: the Tied Eye project. Can you tell us a bit

424
00:20:58,720 --> 00:21:00,800
Speaker 1: about how you first start at it and and what

425
00:21:00,840 --> 00:21:02,000
Speaker 1: your reason was for starting it?

426
00:21:02,600 --> 00:21:04,440
Speaker 3: Yes, started back in twenty seventeen.

427
00:21:04,600 --> 00:21:06,800
Speaker 5: I was with my sisters one summer, didn't have much

428
00:21:06,840 --> 00:21:08,320
Speaker 5: on so we were like, what should we do? We

429
00:21:08,400 --> 00:21:10,360
Speaker 5: used to do tight ying when I was a bit

430
00:21:10,400 --> 00:21:13,240
Speaker 5: younger with my mom. We stood at our school fate

431
00:21:13,280 --> 00:21:14,879
Speaker 5: and that sort of thing. So you know, I've always

432
00:21:14,880 --> 00:21:16,199
Speaker 5: sort of done it in the background, which just been

433
00:21:16,200 --> 00:21:16,959
Speaker 5: a random thing to do.

434
00:21:17,320 --> 00:21:18,640
Speaker 3: And in twenty seventeen, I feel like tired.

435
00:21:18,640 --> 00:21:19,919
Speaker 5: I wasn't a big I feel like it's a bit

436
00:21:20,000 --> 00:21:21,919
Speaker 5: more like, a bit more trending now, but back then

437
00:21:21,960 --> 00:21:23,280
Speaker 5: it wasn't. It was a bit random that we were

438
00:21:23,280 --> 00:21:25,080
Speaker 5: doing it. And then a few people are like, oh,

439
00:21:25,080 --> 00:21:27,439
Speaker 5: we'll buy some bibs. I mean, sorry, we'll buy some

440
00:21:27,440 --> 00:21:30,120
Speaker 5: t shirts. We went to every kmart and target and

441
00:21:30,480 --> 00:21:32,640
Speaker 5: tied at everything we could, basically on my dad's brand

442
00:21:32,680 --> 00:21:36,000
Speaker 5: new deck. So it wasn't too too happy about that,

443
00:21:36,080 --> 00:21:38,760
Speaker 5: but it sort of just kept growing. I met this

444
00:21:38,760 --> 00:21:42,720
Speaker 5: beautiful girl, Mollycroft, who you know has beaten austriosarcoma twice

445
00:21:42,760 --> 00:21:45,600
Speaker 5: now and she's only fifteen, and she's a huge part

446
00:21:45,600 --> 00:21:47,639
Speaker 5: of the Tighter project and why we do what we do.

447
00:21:47,760 --> 00:21:48,760
Speaker 4: And you know, it's.

448
00:21:48,640 --> 00:21:49,920
Speaker 3: Literally just wrapped up for the year.

449
00:21:49,920 --> 00:21:53,000
Speaker 5: We've had like a big couple of months doing Netbull

450
00:21:53,040 --> 00:21:55,400
Speaker 5: bibs and working with the Confident Girls Foundation and then

451
00:21:56,280 --> 00:21:57,679
Speaker 5: you know, we've got some big plans for the end

452
00:21:57,680 --> 00:21:58,120
Speaker 5: of the year.

453
00:21:58,160 --> 00:22:00,400
Speaker 3: But right now I'm like full netty mode. I'm having

454
00:22:00,400 --> 00:22:00,880
Speaker 3: a little.

455
00:22:00,680 --> 00:22:02,920
Speaker 5: Breathe from the tie dyeing. But at the end of

456
00:22:02,960 --> 00:22:05,240
Speaker 5: the year we're thinking tighta on tour. Molly's from Dubbo,

457
00:22:05,359 --> 00:22:06,960
Speaker 5: so we're going to get a few buses and head

458
00:22:06,960 --> 00:22:07,320
Speaker 5: to Dubbo.

459
00:22:07,440 --> 00:22:08,440
Speaker 1: So amazing.

460
00:22:08,520 --> 00:22:09,879
Speaker 5: Yeah, it should be good to have to get their

461
00:22:10,040 --> 00:22:12,960
Speaker 5: Female Athlete projector come and do some podcasting here.

462
00:22:14,359 --> 00:22:15,080
Speaker 3: I love that.

463
00:22:15,680 --> 00:22:17,960
Speaker 1: So for people who don't know about it, how is

464
00:22:17,960 --> 00:22:19,679
Speaker 1: there a way that people can get involved? Obviously your

465
00:22:19,720 --> 00:22:21,720
Speaker 1: netball focused, but is there a way for people listening

466
00:22:21,760 --> 00:22:24,040
Speaker 1: that they can get involved in the meantime.

467
00:22:23,640 --> 00:22:27,160
Speaker 5: Yeah, we've got We're on Instagram, the TITI project on Instagram,

468
00:22:27,160 --> 00:22:29,399
Speaker 5: and that's sort of our main platform that we post stuff.

469
00:22:29,440 --> 00:22:33,000
Speaker 5: So got it in quick. That's a really good way. Otherwise,
