00:00:05,080 --> 00:00:08,640
Speaker 1: Welcome to the rap Per weekly podcast covering women's sports

Speaker 1: For the key story, we'll discuss how sponsorship deals in

8
00:00:28,160 --> 00:00:31,880
Speaker 1: women's sports are outpacing growth in some men's leagues by

9
00:00:31,960 --> 00:00:36,240
Speaker 1: nearly fifty percent, according to a new report. My favorite

10
00:00:36,320 --> 00:00:36,920
Speaker 1: kind of report.

11
00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:37,760
Speaker 3: It's a good report.

12
00:00:38,280 --> 00:00:41,320
Speaker 1: I feel like we're still a bit hungover, almost But

13
00:00:41,560 --> 00:00:43,120
Speaker 1: we didn't get drunk at the summer, but I feel

14
00:00:43,120 --> 00:00:46,360
Speaker 1: we're almost a bit hungover from the summer, the anticipation

15
00:00:46,479 --> 00:00:48,839
Speaker 1: and the build up of event planning and all those things.

16
00:00:49,200 --> 00:00:50,400
Speaker 1: It was an incredible day.

17
00:00:50,520 --> 00:00:51,280
Speaker 3: It was a great day.

18
00:00:52,320 --> 00:00:56,880
Speaker 2: First time summit and I don't it went so well,

19
00:00:56,880 --> 00:00:58,680
Speaker 2: and it was just such a real buzz to be

20
00:00:58,840 --> 00:01:02,920
Speaker 2: in and around so many amazing athletes and also you know,

21
00:01:03,640 --> 00:01:05,640
Speaker 2: partners that want to be involved in women's sport.

22
00:01:05,959 --> 00:01:07,640
Speaker 1: Yeah, I think that was a really cool part of

23
00:01:07,640 --> 00:01:10,440
Speaker 1: it as well. We had Blue Rock delivering a financial

24
00:01:10,520 --> 00:01:14,480
Speaker 1: education session Athena Sports Nutrition hooked up the athletes with

25
00:01:14,920 --> 00:01:17,839
Speaker 1: all their protein powder and protein bars and the athletes

26
00:01:17,880 --> 00:01:21,399
Speaker 1: foot with athletes foot with bouchers and goodie bags.

27
00:01:21,040 --> 00:01:24,679
Speaker 2: So many goodie bags and LSKD with an epic backpack

28
00:01:24,760 --> 00:01:25,759
Speaker 2: full of goodies as well.

29
00:01:25,840 --> 00:01:29,760
Speaker 1: Good backpack. You're taking that to Europe. Made a hosted

Speaker 1: us there which was amazing. It was yeah, just a combination.

Speaker 1: with Femi Run Club in the city at Nike George Street.

36
00:01:52,600 --> 00:01:55,120

43
00:02:10,720 --> 00:02:15,120
Speaker 1: We're recording on gadagle Land. I'm out of breath. Let's

44
00:02:15,160 --> 00:02:19,840
Speaker 1: take a look around the grounds.

45
00:02:18,200 --> 00:02:20,000
Speaker 3: In NARLW news.

46
00:02:20,040 --> 00:02:21,840
Speaker 2: Well, I guess just Rugby League news, because it's not

47
00:02:21,880 --> 00:02:23,640
Speaker 2: really the n RLW just yet, is it. It's the

48
00:02:23,639 --> 00:02:27,480
Speaker 2: Australian Jewlues that hit the jackpot in Vegas, downing the

49
00:02:27,520 --> 00:02:30,480
Speaker 2: England line. This is ninety to four in a record

50
00:02:30,639 --> 00:02:35,720
Speaker 2: breaking route. The matchup was the first women's game of

51
00:02:35,800 --> 00:02:38,359
Speaker 2: any sports who played at an NFL ground at the

52
00:02:38,480 --> 00:02:41,280
Speaker 2: NFL Ground Allegiance Stadium since it opened in twenty twenty,

53
00:02:41,280 --> 00:02:44,480
Speaker 2: and the Jailers made sure to make a statement pretty

54
00:02:44,480 --> 00:02:45,400
Speaker 2: cool ground.

55
00:02:45,400 --> 00:02:48,600
Speaker 1: Cool ground and pretty cool milestone. The first women's sport

56
00:02:48,639 --> 00:02:49,000
Speaker 1: to do it.

57
00:02:49,720 --> 00:02:54,080
Speaker 2: Well, I don't think many other women's sports play in

58
00:02:54,120 --> 00:02:59,080
Speaker 2: the NFL stadium. US shapes the rectangular inside, but outside

59
00:02:59,120 --> 00:03:02,760
Speaker 2: it looks like the death Star, the pretty cool stadium.

60
00:03:03,400 --> 00:03:06,360
Speaker 2: Superstar fullback to meet Upton plate a starring role, scoring

61
00:03:06,440 --> 00:03:09,320
Speaker 2: five tries, which also marked her first career hat trick

62
00:03:09,400 --> 00:03:12,640
Speaker 2: for the Jewls. Meanwhile, playmaker tarant A Can put on

63
00:03:12,720 --> 00:03:15,600
Speaker 2: a clinic in try assist with four passes leading to

64
00:03:15,680 --> 00:03:17,720
Speaker 2: four pointers before halftime.

65
00:03:18,200 --> 00:03:20,680
Speaker 1: She's a very good user of the footy.

66
00:03:21,200 --> 00:03:23,200
Speaker 2: Just yeah, I feel like Tara a Can's kind of

67
00:03:23,600 --> 00:03:26,200
Speaker 2: really Her progress has been pretty rapid in the last

68
00:03:26,240 --> 00:03:26,840
Speaker 2: three years.

69
00:03:26,960 --> 00:03:28,919
Speaker 1: I want to say, yeah, I just I always think

70
00:03:28,960 --> 00:03:30,280
Speaker 1: of her in Orige and dominating.

71
00:03:30,400 --> 00:03:31,560
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, agree.

72
00:03:31,960 --> 00:03:35,720
Speaker 2: The game was briefly marked by a pretty heavy head

73
00:03:35,720 --> 00:03:38,680
Speaker 2: on collision. It was the first tackle from the kickoff

74
00:03:39,160 --> 00:03:41,880
Speaker 2: at the start of the second half that left England

75
00:03:41,920 --> 00:03:45,000
Speaker 2: prop Vicki Whitfield not moving very much on the ground.

76
00:03:45,320 --> 00:03:46,120
Speaker 1: It's not nice.

77
00:03:46,280 --> 00:03:47,760
Speaker 2: Yeah, it was just it was a bit of an

78
00:03:47,840 --> 00:03:50,920
Speaker 2: upright tackle and just yeah, didn't end well. I believe

79
00:03:50,960 --> 00:03:53,560
Speaker 2: she's okay though, so that's good. It was another dominant

80
00:03:53,600 --> 00:03:55,520
Speaker 2: half of the Jelaes in that second half, with Julia

81
00:03:55,560 --> 00:03:59,120
Speaker 2: Robinson and Jess Surgis ending the evening with hat tricks also,

82
00:03:59,160 --> 00:04:03,280
Speaker 2: while Shannon mark so Isabel Kelly Jakaia Whitfield also got

83
00:04:03,320 --> 00:04:04,839
Speaker 2: on the score sheet.

84
00:04:05,160 --> 00:04:05,680
Speaker 3: You get a.

85
00:04:05,640 --> 00:04:08,480
Speaker 1: Try, it's a bit like that, isn't.

86
00:04:09,440 --> 00:04:11,960
Speaker 2: England did score a consolation try on the full time

87
00:04:12,000 --> 00:04:14,120
Speaker 2: buzz up via Georgia Roche.

88
00:04:14,160 --> 00:04:17,760
Speaker 1: Can we discuss you or you get a try while

89
00:04:17,760 --> 00:04:21,719
Speaker 1: you're there? Should it have been? I think I said,

90
00:04:21,720 --> 00:04:23,640
Speaker 1: I don't know if I said this on air pregame?

91
00:04:23,800 --> 00:04:26,839
Speaker 1: Should it not have been Australia and New Zealand or

92
00:04:27,160 --> 00:04:28,320
Speaker 1: a state of origin game.

93
00:04:29,120 --> 00:04:32,760
Speaker 2: There's definitely some probably inner workings that we're not aware

94
00:04:32,800 --> 00:04:36,520
Speaker 2: of in regards to I believe there was UK teams there,

95
00:04:37,640 --> 00:04:41,960
Speaker 2: so what are they are the Super League teams there?

96
00:04:42,000 --> 00:04:45,560
Speaker 2: So there was probably a deal done between the Strain

97
00:04:45,560 --> 00:04:48,920
Speaker 2: and Rugby League and the Super League. But yes, if

98
00:04:48,960 --> 00:04:52,359
Speaker 2: if we're talking about having all eyes on a game,

99
00:04:52,760 --> 00:04:57,560
Speaker 2: making a massively a big deal about the promotion of

100
00:04:57,560 --> 00:04:59,720
Speaker 2: it and all of those wonderful things that occurred in

101
00:04:59,760 --> 00:05:03,200
Speaker 2: the eat up to it, then actually delivering on the

102
00:05:03,240 --> 00:05:06,960
Speaker 2: pitch a lopsided contest like that, I don't think it

103
00:05:07,000 --> 00:05:08,240
Speaker 2: benefits the sport at all.

104
00:05:08,839 --> 00:05:11,080
Speaker 1: I was reading from Watch her Footy on Instagram some

105
00:05:11,160 --> 00:05:14,560
Speaker 1: interesting numbers. So in twenty seventeen, which I think is

106
00:05:14,600 --> 00:05:18,440
Speaker 1: the last time Jillreues in England met Australia one thirty

107
00:05:18,480 --> 00:05:21,799
Speaker 1: eight nil, and then prior to that they were closer margins.

108
00:05:21,880 --> 00:05:24,719
Speaker 1: But if we look at the twenty twenty two Rugby

109
00:05:24,760 --> 00:05:28,640
Speaker 1: League Women's World Cup, New Zealand beat England twenty to

110
00:05:28,680 --> 00:05:31,839
Speaker 1: six in the semi final, but then in the final

111
00:05:31,880 --> 00:05:34,800
Speaker 1: the Jilles beat New Zealand fifty four to four. So

112
00:05:34,839 --> 00:05:36,680
Speaker 1: if you kind of I know sport doesn't work like that.

113
00:05:37,160 --> 00:05:39,880
Speaker 1: But if you kind of went to format, you probably

114
00:05:39,960 --> 00:05:42,240
Speaker 1: knew that it was going to be a whacking.

115
00:05:42,440 --> 00:05:47,240
Speaker 3: Yep, I don't. I think everyone was definitely prepared for

116
00:05:47,240 --> 00:05:47,640
Speaker 3: the whacking.

117
00:05:47,680 --> 00:05:51,360
Speaker 2: I don't know ninety points ninety nil until the last

118
00:05:51,400 --> 00:05:53,240
Speaker 2: minute was what they'd envisaged.

119
00:05:54,000 --> 00:05:57,880
Speaker 1: Is it just a poor representation like it's showing women's

120
00:05:57,960 --> 00:06:00,720
Speaker 1: rugby league on the global stage. I just don't think

121
00:06:00,760 --> 00:06:02,960
Speaker 1: a ninety point margin is the way to do that.

122
00:06:03,320 --> 00:06:06,400
Speaker 2: And absolutely, people that are invested in the game that

123
00:06:06,560 --> 00:06:10,040
Speaker 2: understand that raby league in England probably isn't as heavily

124
00:06:10,040 --> 00:06:14,760
Speaker 2: invested in and therefore the players aren't as full time

125
00:06:15,240 --> 00:06:17,640
Speaker 2: as the NROLW players are and all of those things,

126
00:06:17,680 --> 00:06:20,760
Speaker 2: they understand the why. But as a casual fan, a

127
00:06:20,760 --> 00:06:24,360
Speaker 2: casual observer, looking at that score again, it just gives

128
00:06:24,360 --> 00:06:26,640
Speaker 2: them fuel to that women's sports a joke.

129
00:06:27,160 --> 00:06:29,800
Speaker 1: Yeah, and I think it's probably why you're saying that

130
00:06:29,839 --> 00:06:32,560
Speaker 1: it's important for us to point out that the reason

131
00:06:32,640 --> 00:06:35,320
Speaker 1: the margin is that big is because of the investment

132
00:06:35,320 --> 00:06:38,040
Speaker 1: of the women's absolutely in the women's game, sorry in Australia,

133
00:06:38,120 --> 00:06:43,400
Speaker 1: which is a great thing. Yeah, it's just I don't know,

134
00:06:43,520 --> 00:06:45,000
Speaker 1: I don't know what else to say about it. It's

135
00:06:45,000 --> 00:06:45,720
Speaker 1: just frustrating.

136
00:06:45,760 --> 00:06:48,800
Speaker 2: It doesn't sit well, it feels wrong, and I think,

137
00:06:49,000 --> 00:06:51,920
Speaker 2: and you're right, like the investment that Raby League has

138
00:06:51,920 --> 00:06:55,480
Speaker 2: put into the women's game here is outstanding and as

139
00:06:55,520 --> 00:06:58,000
Speaker 2: a direct competitor of them, I see it and feel

140
00:06:58,040 --> 00:07:00,880
Speaker 2: it every day. The other thing that you know, you

141
00:07:00,960 --> 00:07:03,520
Speaker 2: really probably need to take into account and I might

142
00:07:03,600 --> 00:07:06,479
Speaker 2: upset some rugby leagueas here, But you know, the question

143
00:07:07,120 --> 00:07:09,440
Speaker 2: is asked every four years or every time we play

144
00:07:09,680 --> 00:07:12,640
Speaker 2: a World Cup. You know, is rugby league genuinely an

145
00:07:12,640 --> 00:07:16,480
Speaker 2: international game? And you know, yes we play New Zealand

146
00:07:16,480 --> 00:07:19,800
Speaker 2: and competitive matches, but even the men's game, really there's

147
00:07:20,160 --> 00:07:22,920
Speaker 2: three or four countries that genuinely play it properly. So

148
00:07:23,560 --> 00:07:26,040
Speaker 2: you know, I think when you've got all eyes on

149
00:07:26,240 --> 00:07:28,760
Speaker 2: an event like that and we're putting all the money

150
00:07:28,760 --> 00:07:31,080
Speaker 2: into promoting it, you know, for me, a state of

151
00:07:31,120 --> 00:07:33,320
Speaker 2: origin or even a club match makes a lot more sense.

152
00:07:33,800 --> 00:07:38,280
Speaker 1: I like it. In WNBL, the grand final is set

153
00:07:38,400 --> 00:07:39,200
Speaker 1: with the Bendo.

154
00:07:39,320 --> 00:07:40,880
Speaker 3: Ben Bendo the bendo spirit.

155
00:07:40,920 --> 00:07:43,480
Speaker 1: Bendo spirit maybe that's what the locals call it. Bendo

156
00:07:44,000 --> 00:07:48,000
Speaker 1: the bendigo spirit said to face off against the Townsville Fire.

157
00:07:48,720 --> 00:07:51,240
Speaker 1: The Townsville Fire wrapped up their semi final series beating

158
00:07:51,280 --> 00:07:53,560
Speaker 1: the Perth Links at home one hundred and six to

159
00:07:53,600 --> 00:07:56,520
Speaker 1: seventy six in Game two. It was far from an

160
00:07:56,560 --> 00:07:58,840
Speaker 1: ideal start for the Fire after the Links went on

161
00:07:58,880 --> 00:08:01,880
Speaker 1: a thirteen and two run in the first but the

162
00:08:01,920 --> 00:08:04,560
Speaker 1: Fire outscored the Links the rest of the way one

163
00:08:04,640 --> 00:08:06,360
Speaker 1: hundred and four to sixty three.

164
00:08:06,800 --> 00:08:08,760
Speaker 3: Now they just started a little slow, but once they

165
00:08:08,760 --> 00:08:10,560
Speaker 3: got going, whoa, they went.

166
00:08:10,840 --> 00:08:13,640
Speaker 1: Whoa, whoa, whoa. So the Events obviously to the Grand Final.

167
00:08:13,800 --> 00:08:16,840
Speaker 1: Despite the twenty four points, seven assists and six deals

168
00:08:16,840 --> 00:08:20,120
Speaker 1: for Perth's Ali Wilson in the other semi the Flames

169
00:08:20,120 --> 00:08:22,160
Speaker 1: have gone down fighting. Oh I feel a bit sad

170
00:08:22,160 --> 00:08:22,560
Speaker 1: about that.

171
00:08:22,760 --> 00:08:25,360
Speaker 3: Yeah, but company back in the finals.

172
00:08:25,440 --> 00:08:28,040
Speaker 1: Yeah, absolutely, yeah.

173
00:08:27,240 --> 00:08:29,679
Speaker 3: Progress progress Grand Final.

174
00:08:29,920 --> 00:08:32,280
Speaker 1: They suffered a ninety one to seventy four defeat to

175
00:08:32,360 --> 00:08:35,560
Speaker 1: the Bendigo Spirit in their second game. It was a

176
00:08:35,559 --> 00:08:38,160
Speaker 1: hot start for the Flames, leading twenty three to fifteen

177
00:08:38,200 --> 00:08:41,880
Speaker 1: heading into the first break courtesy of three Clutch three bombs,

178
00:08:41,920 --> 00:08:44,520
Speaker 1: but Bendigo started the next term on an eleven and

179
00:08:44,600 --> 00:08:48,520
Speaker 1: zero runo that was ended when Talia to up found

180
00:08:48,679 --> 00:08:51,480
Speaker 1: Kaylor George for a triple. Those two continue to lead

181
00:08:51,480 --> 00:08:53,480
Speaker 1: the charge for the Harbour City side, ensuring the host

182
00:08:53,520 --> 00:08:58,600
Speaker 1: went into halftime only down by nine. The deficit closed

183
00:08:58,600 --> 00:09:00,920
Speaker 1: to just three in the third quarter from Kelsey Griffin

184
00:09:00,960 --> 00:09:03,760
Speaker 1: as time expired made it seventy three to sixty seven.

185
00:09:03,800 --> 00:09:06,640
Speaker 1: At the final change five to start to the term

186
00:09:06,840 --> 00:09:10,679
Speaker 1: bite Bendigo saw that lead extend to nine. The Flames

187
00:09:10,679 --> 00:09:13,880
Speaker 1: defense continued to fight, but the game would end with

188
00:09:13,960 --> 00:09:17,440
Speaker 1: the Spirit seventeen points in front. Keene to watch that

189
00:09:17,480 --> 00:09:18,440
Speaker 1: Grand Final series.

190
00:09:18,520 --> 00:09:21,360
Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm asking you for your tip please and thank you.

191
00:09:21,400 --> 00:09:24,160
Speaker 3: Put that sip vessel down.

192
00:09:24,760 --> 00:09:29,200
Speaker 1: The sissel the cup. I'm just I'm the Towns are

193
00:09:29,200 --> 00:09:30,880
Speaker 1: far at my second team, so it's fire.

194
00:09:32,840 --> 00:09:34,400
Speaker 3: How many teams have you got too?

195
00:09:34,720 --> 00:09:36,440
Speaker 1: You've got two teams in sudd League?

196
00:09:36,920 --> 00:09:39,600
Speaker 3: Why are there your second team? Talkers through it? You

197
00:09:39,640 --> 00:09:41,520
Speaker 3: love Towns or you broke your face there, How can

198
00:09:41,559 --> 00:09:42,440
Speaker 3: they be your second team?

199
00:09:42,520 --> 00:09:44,560
Speaker 1: No, it's nothing to do with the location. It's more

200
00:09:44,640 --> 00:09:47,080
Speaker 1: just like the people and the coach. Shannon the head coach.

201
00:09:47,080 --> 00:09:48,880
Speaker 1: He's a great he coached me when I was at Unigames.

202
00:09:48,920 --> 00:09:51,320
Speaker 1: He's he's very good at what he does. And I

203
00:09:51,320 --> 00:09:54,200
Speaker 1: also think like the Townsville community really rally around this

204
00:09:54,240 --> 00:09:55,840
Speaker 1: team in a really cool way, like it's a bit

205
00:09:55,840 --> 00:09:57,520
Speaker 1: of a den when people go to play there.

206
00:09:57,559 --> 00:09:58,040
Speaker 3: I like it.

207
00:09:58,080 --> 00:10:02,240
Speaker 2: I believe game one is on Wednesday. Definitely on Wednesday,

208
00:10:02,240 --> 00:10:04,960
Speaker 2: where is it the Spirit will host the fire. That's

209
00:10:05,000 --> 00:10:07,240
Speaker 2: probably a good thing because there's a little cyclone hanging

210
00:10:07,280 --> 00:10:09,440
Speaker 2: out off the coast Queensland right now, so I wouldn't

211
00:10:09,440 --> 00:10:11,640
Speaker 2: want to be flying into Downsville.

212
00:10:11,520 --> 00:10:13,520
Speaker 3: Although I believe it's a bit further south off Brisbane.

213
00:10:13,559 --> 00:10:14,360
Speaker 3: But here we go.

214
00:10:15,080 --> 00:10:15,720
Speaker 1: Who's your peek.

215
00:10:16,559 --> 00:10:18,640
Speaker 2: I'm going to go to the Bendigo Spirit just to

216
00:10:18,679 --> 00:10:22,480
Speaker 2: be different. Well, Sammy witkim Oh Raider, it's the witcamb

217
00:10:22,679 --> 00:10:27,080
Speaker 2: show right her. In some rugby union news, first round

218
00:10:27,120 --> 00:10:29,800
Speaker 2: of this year is super w the Western Force snatched

219
00:10:29,840 --> 00:10:32,880
Speaker 2: a thrilling, last minute twenty nine all draw against the

220
00:10:32,920 --> 00:10:36,560
Speaker 2: Act Brumbies over there in Perth. The Force dominated the breakdown,

221
00:10:36,600 --> 00:10:38,400
Speaker 2: but they were unable to turn it into a great

222
00:10:38,400 --> 00:10:41,080
Speaker 2: advantage when with the Brumpies taking a twenty six seventeen

223
00:10:41,160 --> 00:10:43,839
Speaker 2: lead into the break the Visitors stretched their lead to

224
00:10:43,880 --> 00:10:46,520
Speaker 2: twenty nine to twenty two when Fai Tala Maleca slotted

225
00:10:46,559 --> 00:10:49,160
Speaker 2: a penalty, but with just seconds remaining on the clock.

226
00:10:49,240 --> 00:10:52,720
Speaker 2: The Force is Sammy Treherne. Good to see Sammy back.

227
00:10:52,960 --> 00:10:54,320
Speaker 3: Yes, playing some rugby.

228
00:10:54,840 --> 00:10:58,160
Speaker 2: She scored in the corner and Nicole Addington nailed a

229
00:10:58,200 --> 00:11:00,440
Speaker 2: conversion from the sideline.

230
00:11:00,520 --> 00:11:01,880
Speaker 1: Nicole Livingstone Leddington.

231
00:11:03,200 --> 00:11:06,480
Speaker 2: Nicole Livingston has not put the rugby boots on playing

232
00:11:06,480 --> 00:11:10,960
Speaker 2: full back for the Force. The drama, So that was

233
00:11:11,040 --> 00:11:13,040
Speaker 2: I guess that was on eighty minutes.

234
00:11:14,000 --> 00:11:16,719
Speaker 3: The the Brummies.

235
00:11:16,840 --> 00:11:19,200
Speaker 2: Had an opportunity to kick off and they got the

236
00:11:19,240 --> 00:11:21,440
Speaker 2: ball back from it. Well they got they received a

237
00:11:21,520 --> 00:11:24,520
Speaker 2: penalty and fatalum like I had the chance to win

238
00:11:24,800 --> 00:11:26,679
Speaker 2: the game after full time.

239
00:11:26,840 --> 00:11:29,160
Speaker 3: But she just hooked that thirty seven.

240
00:11:29,080 --> 00:11:33,040
Speaker 2: Meter penalty out. Only the third draw in cu W history.

241
00:11:33,800 --> 00:11:37,079
Speaker 2: We talk about draws in a competition that's only five rounds.

242
00:11:37,440 --> 00:11:40,040
Speaker 2: Don't love it's it's too short.

243
00:11:40,160 --> 00:11:40,920
Speaker 3: It's too short.

244
00:11:41,480 --> 00:11:43,560
Speaker 2: I mean, we talk about the draws, fine, but if

245
00:11:43,600 --> 00:11:45,400
Speaker 2: the comp was longer it wouldn't matter. So let's just

246
00:11:45,400 --> 00:11:47,920
Speaker 2: play home and away, thank you very much. In the

247
00:11:47,960 --> 00:11:49,440
Speaker 2: other game, I'm not sure what happened.

248
00:11:50,800 --> 00:11:52,320
Speaker 1: Oh, we're not talking about it.

249
00:11:52,400 --> 00:11:53,080
Speaker 3: Still too soon.

250
00:11:54,640 --> 00:11:56,960
Speaker 2: The war Retars went down twenty three to seventeen to

251
00:11:57,160 --> 00:12:00,000
Speaker 2: a very physical Fijiana.

252
00:11:59,400 --> 00:12:01,559
Speaker 1: Side amount firing Fiji.

253
00:12:01,640 --> 00:12:05,679
Speaker 2: Yeah, and it was Friday night at Alliant's five o'clock.

254
00:12:05,720 --> 00:12:08,160
Speaker 3: It was superhuman super.

255
00:12:08,400 --> 00:12:10,839
Speaker 1: Sweeties were stuck girls.

256
00:12:11,240 --> 00:12:14,160
Speaker 2: No, no excuse, so because obviously the dur were playing

257
00:12:14,160 --> 00:12:16,000
Speaker 2: in exactly the same conditions. But we dropped the ball

258
00:12:16,040 --> 00:12:19,720
Speaker 2: twenty one times. That'll do it anyway, On to the

259
00:12:19,720 --> 00:12:21,360
Speaker 2: next We get to play the Force next weekend.

260
00:12:21,679 --> 00:12:25,960
Speaker 1: Cool. Cool. In a bit of golf news, Claire Schin

261
00:12:26,040 --> 00:12:29,600
Speaker 1: has been crowned the twenty twenty five Athena Champion in Melbourne.

262
00:12:29,600 --> 00:12:31,959
Speaker 1: For those wondering, the Athena is a golf tournament which

263
00:12:32,000 --> 00:12:35,000
Speaker 1: provides a platform for some of Australia's best young women

264
00:12:35,040 --> 00:12:38,520
Speaker 1: to showcase their golf skills. It challenges the traditional structure

265
00:12:38,559 --> 00:12:41,920
Speaker 1: of a golf tournament. On day one, each player faces

266
00:12:41,960 --> 00:12:45,800
Speaker 1: off in nine skills based challenges. I love this.

267
00:12:46,000 --> 00:12:47,959
Speaker 3: It's kind of like All Star Weekend.

268
00:12:48,200 --> 00:12:50,439
Speaker 1: Yes it is. I don't play golf, but I kind

269
00:12:50,440 --> 00:12:53,199
Speaker 1: of want to participate in this. This looks fun. A

270
00:12:53,200 --> 00:12:55,960
Speaker 1: one hundred meters shot, a lob shot, travel shot, bunker shot,

271
00:12:56,040 --> 00:12:59,960
Speaker 1: mystery shot, long part, longest drive, optimum drive, nearest the pin.

272
00:13:00,120 --> 00:13:03,280
Speaker 3: Is the mystery shot. Like close your eyes and spins.

273
00:13:02,880 --> 00:13:06,680
Speaker 1: And then I quite like that. I think the long

274
00:13:06,760 --> 00:13:08,600
Speaker 1: parts me because the rest of them I probably stuck

275
00:13:08,640 --> 00:13:14,000
Speaker 1: at nothing from you. You say what you'd be good at.

276
00:13:14,040 --> 00:13:16,640
Speaker 2: I just I'll be finding out who organizes this golf

277
00:13:16,679 --> 00:13:18,880
Speaker 2: torment and asking them for an invite for you next

278

279
00:13:22,000 --> 00:13:22,360
Speaker 2: the test.

280

Speaker 2: Putoff love that hopefully we can get some of it?

292
00:14:00,480 --> 00:14:02,360
Speaker 2: Is it like you start at twenty meters and get

293
00:14:02,360 --> 00:14:05,400
Speaker 2: closer until someone misses, or the other way around. Sorry,

294
00:14:05,400 --> 00:14:08,280
Speaker 2: you start close and get further away till someone misses.

295
00:14:08,920 --> 00:14:11,240
Speaker 1: Yeah, maybe that would make more sense, wouldn't Yeah, I

00:15:03,640 --> 00:15:06,880
Speaker 1: quick turn to go right. And I had gone left

318
00:15:07,080 --> 00:15:09,440
Speaker 1: and thought the wheel was back square, but it wasn't.

319
00:15:09,480 --> 00:15:11,800
Speaker 1: It was one full rotation off and so I went

320
00:15:11,840 --> 00:15:14,200
Speaker 1: to turn right into the drive and instead drove up

321
00:15:14,240 --> 00:15:14,720
Speaker 1: the curve.

322
00:15:17,120 --> 00:15:19,000
Speaker 3: Safe to say. F one Academy is not in your

323
00:15:19,040 --> 00:15:22,440
Speaker 3: future anyways. In Avers, she will.

324
00:15:22,360 --> 00:15:25,080
Speaker 2: Join the high Tech Grand Prix team in the all

325
00:15:25,080 --> 00:15:28,640
Speaker 2: female series, which comprises seven rounds, each taking place during

326
00:15:28,640 --> 00:15:31,760
Speaker 2: a Formula One race weekend. The first race is scheduled

327
00:15:31,800 --> 00:15:34,400
Speaker 2: for three weeks time. F one Academy was formed by

328
00:15:34,440 --> 00:15:37,440
Speaker 2: Formula One in twenty twenty three to help young female

329
00:15:37,520 --> 00:15:41,000
Speaker 2: drivers progress to high levels, aiding the transition from karting

330
00:15:41,080 --> 00:15:44,640
Speaker 2: to single seat competitions. They're all carters to start with,

331
00:15:45,000 --> 00:15:51,120
Speaker 2: they're all carters. Carters character is that coach carters. Agnostiatis

332
00:15:51,440 --> 00:15:55,920
Speaker 2: began karting at six and her career highlights include success

333
00:15:55,960 --> 00:15:58,680
Speaker 2: in the F four Indian Championship and multiple podium finishers

334
00:15:59,040 --> 00:16:02,320
Speaker 2: in Australian Carting Championships. She said to meet out, I

335
00:16:02,400 --> 00:16:05,160
Speaker 2: think it's possible with our generation that's coming through, to

336
00:16:05,200 --> 00:16:07,240
Speaker 2: definitely see a female in the next five or six

337
00:16:07,320 --> 00:16:09,880
Speaker 2: years in Formula one. I reckon, it's definitely gonna happen Ava,

338
00:16:09,920 --> 00:16:12,360
Speaker 2: and it could be you, it could be don't hit

339
00:16:12,640 --> 00:16:13,480
Speaker 2: the letter box.

340
00:16:13,440 --> 00:16:16,600
Speaker 1: Well produce the sofa message. During that chat, I ran

341
00:16:16,680 --> 00:16:21,000
Speaker 1: into my letterbox car steel bears cars amazing. Glad you're

342
00:16:21,000 --> 00:16:24,240
Speaker 1: not racing cars. So and also quick one before we

343
00:16:24,280 --> 00:16:27,760
Speaker 1: move on to the next story. Racing Molly Rally. Molly

344
00:16:27,920 --> 00:16:32,200
Speaker 1: Taylor's episode dropped Thursday last week. She talks about like

345
00:16:32,240 --> 00:16:34,520
Speaker 1: the time she came flying around the corner and had

346
00:16:34,520 --> 00:16:37,640
Speaker 1: to avoid a herd of cows. She's an icon Molly Raley.

347
00:16:37,680 --> 00:16:39,640
Speaker 1: She talks about her mum and her mum's involvement in

348
00:16:39,680 --> 00:16:41,960
Speaker 1: the sport. To go get that one in your ears.

349
00:16:42,160 --> 00:16:44,360
Speaker 2: I feel like I've said it before and I'll say

350
00:16:44,400 --> 00:16:47,160
Speaker 2: it again, the rally situation.

351
00:16:47,240 --> 00:16:48,560
Speaker 3: I just think they're the best drivers.

352
00:16:48,800 --> 00:16:49,520
Speaker 1: They're so good.

353
00:16:49,560 --> 00:16:51,360
Speaker 3: I don't know what's around the corner. I mean, they've

354
00:16:51,360 --> 00:16:52,280
Speaker 3: got a map in front of them.

355
00:16:52,280 --> 00:16:57,040
Speaker 1: They're like, doesn't show cows cows in Have you put

356
00:16:57,080 --> 00:16:58,080
Speaker 1: this X ray in here?

357
00:16:59,440 --> 00:16:59,720
Speaker 2: What?

358
00:17:00,320 --> 00:17:00,680
Speaker 1: Okay?

359
00:17:01,720 --> 00:17:01,960
Speaker 2: No?

360
00:17:02,200 --> 00:17:05,600
Speaker 1: In triathlon did you do that?

361
00:17:08,160 --> 00:17:12,080
Speaker 3: It didn't because it's triathlon.

362
00:17:11,480 --> 00:17:13,240
Speaker 1: That's how you say it. So I was sure you

363
00:17:13,280 --> 00:17:14,640
Speaker 1: had done that.

364
00:17:14,040 --> 00:17:15,280
Speaker 3: It is that athlon.

365
00:17:15,560 --> 00:17:23,040
Speaker 1: In triathlon, Reagan Holiok has secured her third consecutive iron

366
00:17:23,040 --> 00:17:25,600
Speaker 1: Man title with a winning time of eight fifty one

367
00:17:25,840 --> 00:17:29,639
Speaker 1: thirty at the Ironman New Zealand. I think it was

368
00:17:29,680 --> 00:17:33,359
Speaker 1: in topal coming out of the swim. Holyoake emerged forth

369
00:17:33,400 --> 00:17:34,760
Speaker 1: with a three to twenty deficit.

370
00:17:35,520 --> 00:17:37,359
Speaker 3: Eight hours and fifty one minutes.

371
00:17:37,440 --> 00:17:38,760
Speaker 1: Yeah, I probably should have clarified.

372
00:17:38,800 --> 00:17:42,760
Speaker 2: That's not eight minutes, that's eight hours of working out

373
00:17:43,119 --> 00:17:43,520
Speaker 2: a lot.

374
00:17:44,000 --> 00:17:49,040
Speaker 1: Oh yuckie. The Australian's patient approach paid dividends as she

375
00:17:49,040 --> 00:17:51,280
Speaker 1: steadily pulled away on the second half of the marathon,

376
00:17:51,359 --> 00:17:53,560
Speaker 1: crossing the finish line with a five minute cushion. That's

377
00:17:53,560 --> 00:17:57,640
Speaker 1: a nice cushion. Former Australian rules footballer Kate Gillespie Jones,

378
00:17:57,680 --> 00:18:01,040
Speaker 1: she was a Carlton, continued her successful transition to triathon

379
00:18:01,080 --> 00:18:04,200
Speaker 1: with a fifth place finish in nine hours and twenty

380
00:18:04,240 --> 00:18:07,520
Speaker 1: minutes flat. I respect that even number. That's nice. The

381
00:18:07,560 --> 00:18:11,399
Speaker 1: former North Melbourne airf W player has rapidly adapted to

382
00:18:11,440 --> 00:18:14,359
Speaker 1: the demands of long course triathon since switching sports in

383
00:18:14,400 --> 00:18:17,440
Speaker 1: twenty twenty two. She's a beast of an athlete.

384
00:18:17,119 --> 00:18:21,000
Speaker 2: That is impressive in some Tilly's news. The Kombat Matildas

385
00:18:21,000 --> 00:18:23,040
Speaker 2: have ended that she Believes Cup campaign with a two

386
00:18:23,080 --> 00:18:26,960
Speaker 2: to one defeat to Columbia. There were five changes to

387
00:18:26,960 --> 00:18:29,080
Speaker 2: the side that took on the United States last week,

388
00:18:29,800 --> 00:18:32,760
Speaker 2: but it was the columb inside who found the breakthrough

389
00:18:32,880 --> 00:18:35,879
Speaker 2: in the fifteenth minute. The ball found Wendy Banilla in

390
00:18:35,920 --> 00:18:38,320
Speaker 2: the penalty area after a flowing team move and to

391
00:18:38,440 --> 00:18:40,639
Speaker 2: finish with near perfect hitting the inside of the post

392
00:18:41,359 --> 00:18:42,520
Speaker 2: on its way into the back.

393
00:18:42,359 --> 00:18:44,880
Speaker 3: Of the net. There were chances of both teams early

394
00:18:44,920 --> 00:18:45,200
Speaker 3: and what.

395
00:18:45,160 --> 00:18:48,399
Speaker 2: Was a pretty stop start second half with the Combat

396
00:18:48,400 --> 00:18:52,479
Speaker 2: Matilda's on the front foot searching for an equalizer. Mary Fowler,

397
00:18:52,520 --> 00:18:55,200
Speaker 2: who came off the bench in the sixty sixth minute

398
00:18:55,200 --> 00:18:58,679
Speaker 2: in place of Tamika Yellup, made an immediate impact. Bowler's

399
00:18:58,720 --> 00:19:02,639
Speaker 2: ball found Charlie Grant in space on Australia's left flank.

400
00:19:02,680 --> 00:19:04,840
Speaker 2: Grant put in a pinpoint cross in the penny area

401
00:19:04,880 --> 00:19:08,320
Speaker 2: where Hayley Rezzo was waiting. The first touch was amazing,

402
00:19:08,440 --> 00:19:10,720
Speaker 2: allowing her to take it around Columbus defense and finished

403
00:19:10,720 --> 00:19:14,560
Speaker 2: well to make it one. However, unfortunately, Columbia would regain

404
00:19:14,600 --> 00:19:18,760
Speaker 2: and lead minutes later, Catalina was May tried her luck

405
00:19:18,800 --> 00:19:20,960
Speaker 2: from outside the Peniney air and a cruel deflection saw

406
00:19:20,960 --> 00:19:23,280
Speaker 2: it loop into the back of the net.

407
00:19:24,119 --> 00:19:27,840
Speaker 1: We have not yet discussed he who shall not be

408
00:19:27,920 --> 00:19:31,119
Speaker 1: named and all of them Voldemort, Yeah, he all of

409
00:19:31,160 --> 00:19:35,439
Speaker 1: the discussion around the Tillies at the moment. Oh, yes,

410
00:19:35,520 --> 00:19:38,560
Speaker 1: I think, like just it's a really tricky time for

411
00:19:38,640 --> 00:19:41,920
Speaker 1: the Matilda's. We were discussing last week the coach situation

412
00:19:42,320 --> 00:19:44,919
Speaker 1: and not really a rebuild, but just like finding a

413
00:19:44,920 --> 00:19:47,160
Speaker 1: new direction off the back of World Cup and Olympics

414
00:19:47,200 --> 00:19:52,040
Speaker 1: and things like this. But gosh, they just constantly in

415
00:19:52,080 --> 00:19:55,080
Speaker 1: the spotlight, not in a good way, and I just

416
00:19:55,480 --> 00:19:56,800
Speaker 1: I'm feeling for them at the moment.

417
00:19:56,920 --> 00:19:58,200
Speaker 3: Yeah, I definitely agree.

418
00:19:58,200 --> 00:20:03,199
Speaker 2: There's been a stream of negative, negatively leaning press in

419
00:20:03,240 --> 00:20:06,119
Speaker 2: and around the team, and it does it. There's no

420
00:20:06,160 --> 00:20:07,920
Speaker 2: doubt it exhausts the team for sure.

421
00:20:08,240 --> 00:20:10,400
Speaker 1: Yeah. And it's just what's really interesting, Like the Marty

422
00:20:10,440 --> 00:20:13,280
Speaker 1: Shoe gold thing was disgusting, and I know it's been

423
00:20:13,400 --> 00:20:15,600
Speaker 1: spoken about at length. I don't feel like we need

424
00:20:15,640 --> 00:20:18,880
Speaker 1: to go into detail. It was absolutely disgusting, misogynistic. I'm

425
00:20:18,920 --> 00:20:21,240
Speaker 1: so glad he was fired, but he's actually fired.

426
00:20:21,320 --> 00:20:23,840
Speaker 3: I hated that part ways so mutually agreed.

427
00:20:23,880 --> 00:20:27,720
Speaker 1: Parting of ways is that around him legalities these days,

428
00:20:27,800 --> 00:20:30,160
Speaker 1: who knows, but the man should have been fired absolutely.

429
00:20:30,320 --> 00:20:32,040
Speaker 1: So See, we can't talk about this because we'll talk

430
00:20:32,040 --> 00:20:34,919
Speaker 1: about it half an hour. But what's really interesting that

431
00:20:34,960 --> 00:20:37,960
Speaker 1: I've noticed on our socials Instagram, Great place to be,

432
00:20:38,119 --> 00:20:40,480
Speaker 1: Facebook is a cess bit. As we know, we talk

433
00:20:40,480 --> 00:20:44,720
Speaker 1: about this often, but what's probably quite sad is we've

434
00:20:44,760 --> 00:20:47,720
Speaker 1: seen off the back of Sam Kurz trial, off Matilda,

435
00:20:48,000 --> 00:20:51,160
Speaker 1: Matilda's performances lately and now this Marty Shoe gold thing,

436
00:20:51,520 --> 00:20:55,680
Speaker 1: there is now almost a complete division in Australia around

437
00:20:55,760 --> 00:20:59,000
Speaker 1: the Matilda's majority. I would like to hope large majority,

438
00:20:59,160 --> 00:21:02,080
Speaker 1: huge fans love what they do. Icons for women's sport,

439
00:21:02,160 --> 00:21:04,879
Speaker 1: trailblazers who may not be performing at the moment, but

440
00:21:04,880 --> 00:21:09,840
Speaker 1: that's part of sport. There's these very loud, loud, loud

441
00:21:10,200 --> 00:21:13,920
Speaker 1: I hope, minority of people who are just wanting to

442
00:21:14,000 --> 00:21:16,760
Speaker 1: rip them down, airing them to spreads.

443
00:21:18,080 --> 00:21:21,040
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's it's really disheartening to see that. And like

444
00:21:21,080 --> 00:21:23,199
Speaker 2: you said, it is, I'm sure it's the vocal. It's

445
00:21:23,240 --> 00:21:25,840
Speaker 2: a very vocal minority and it's in a very small minority.

446
00:21:25,920 --> 00:21:28,040
Speaker 2: Let's not forget the eleven point five million people watch

447
00:21:28,080 --> 00:21:28,760
Speaker 2: that semi.

448
00:21:28,480 --> 00:21:29,359
Speaker 3: Final of the World Cup.

449
00:21:29,880 --> 00:21:32,320
Speaker 2: I mean, I don't know if there's many more tellies

450
00:21:32,359 --> 00:21:33,720
Speaker 2: in Australia than that.

451
00:21:33,800 --> 00:21:37,960
Speaker 1: There's Harvey Normans sold out, good pluck.

452
00:21:38,720 --> 00:21:41,159
Speaker 3: Yeah, it is the vocal minority.

453
00:21:41,200 --> 00:21:44,560
Speaker 2: But unfortunately those guys just tend to get the attention

454
00:21:44,720 --> 00:21:48,359
Speaker 2: and it's just so frustrating. It's so frustrating, and it

455
00:21:48,400 --> 00:21:50,600
Speaker 2: becomes and I think that's the biggest thing it, Like

456
00:21:50,640 --> 00:21:53,040
Speaker 2: you said, when it's constant like this and it has

457
00:21:53,080 --> 00:21:56,439
Speaker 2: been one thing after another, it becomes hard to ignore.

458
00:21:56,920 --> 00:22:01,320
Speaker 1: Yes, yeah it does. In Snow's bit of aerial skiing,

459
00:22:01,440 --> 00:22:05,000
Speaker 1: Ozzie Laura Peel has claimed gold at the Freestyle Skiing

460
00:22:05,160 --> 00:22:09,920
Speaker 1: World Cup in Kazakhstan, while fellow Ossy Danielle Scott claimed bronze.

461
00:22:09,960 --> 00:22:13,920
Speaker 1: I less than a year to the Winter Olympics. Aerial

462
00:22:13,960 --> 00:22:17,080
Speaker 1: skiing is our jam. We have so many talent. You've

463
00:22:17,119 --> 00:22:19,159
Speaker 1: obviously got the top four in the podium podium, I

464
00:22:19,200 --> 00:22:21,680
Speaker 1: reckon how good, Bob said Bree he is going to

465
00:22:21,760 --> 00:22:24,959
Speaker 1: be there too. How good. Laura Peel is arguably the

466
00:22:24,960 --> 00:22:29,040
Speaker 1: most consistent on tour this season in the triples, and

467
00:22:29,119 --> 00:22:33,080
Speaker 1: she was still up once again. She stomped her trick

468
00:22:33,320 --> 00:22:36,080
Speaker 1: beautifully in the superfinal to score one hundred and fifteen

469
00:22:36,119 --> 00:22:39,040
Speaker 1: point nine to one points and take first place. It

470
00:22:39,119 --> 00:22:42,240
Speaker 1: completed a terrific turnaround after she squeezed in the first

471
00:22:42,280 --> 00:22:47,680
Speaker 1: round of finals in twelfth solid Zoo Meng Tawer from

472
00:22:47,800 --> 00:22:50,480

Speaker 2: In some cricket news. I watched the end of this

487
00:23:31,240 --> 00:23:33,280
Speaker 2: last night. It was very exciting in the Women's National

Speaker 2: Cricket League Final. The News of Ials Breakers have defended

00:23:51,520 --> 00:23:52,720

00:23:52,800 --> 00:23:55,320
Speaker 2: So the Breakers defend two fifteen to win the Ruth

496
00:23:55,480 --> 00:24:01,960
Speaker 2: Pretty Cup. It was a really interesting dismissal of George

497
00:24:01,960 --> 00:24:06,520
Speaker 2: redmin Talk you through it here. She's at the non strikers.

498
00:24:06,520 --> 00:24:07,320
Speaker 1: It's Bolden court.

499
00:24:09,240 --> 00:24:13,159
Speaker 2: She's at the non strikers end. It's kind No, it's not.

500
00:24:13,760 --> 00:24:17,199
Speaker 2: She's the non strikers and she's whacked it. The bowler

501
00:24:17,240 --> 00:24:22,879
Speaker 2: has nearly bold and caught it, clicked their hands dropped

502
00:24:22,920 --> 00:24:26,560
Speaker 2: it and it's hit, hit the stumps and she's out

503
00:24:26,600 --> 00:24:28,159
Speaker 2: and she's at the non strikers end and she was

504
00:24:28,200 --> 00:24:28,800
Speaker 2: out of her crease.

505
00:24:29,560 --> 00:24:32,679
Speaker 1: Oh that's annoyed. It sucks. It's annoyed.

506
00:24:32,680 --> 00:24:33,760
Speaker 3: It's a good drop catch.

507
00:24:35,800 --> 00:24:37,960
Speaker 1: Maybe it was a strategic little tip of finger.

508
00:24:38,119 --> 00:24:39,760
Speaker 3: It absolutely wasn't cool anyway.

509
00:24:40,680 --> 00:24:42,840
Speaker 2: So yeah, with just two Tailor wickets in hand they

510
00:24:42,880 --> 00:24:46,480
Speaker 2: needed forty three runs. Red Made could only watch on

511
00:24:46,520 --> 00:24:48,720
Speaker 2: from the dugout after that unfortunate dismissal as her team

512
00:24:48,720 --> 00:24:50,639

00:25:02,800 --> 00:25:05,280
Speaker 2: five years drought in the domestic one day competition, which

518
00:25:05,400 --> 00:25:07,840
Speaker 2: a lean patch after they won twenty of twenty four

519
00:25:07,920 --> 00:25:12,159
Speaker 2: titles on off a prior, and it extended Queensland's recent

520
00:25:12,240 --> 00:25:13,280
Speaker 2: final misery.

521
00:25:13,400 --> 00:25:15,520
Speaker 1: And shout out to our mates who were there who

525
00:25:25,000 --> 00:25:26,320

00:25:26,560 --> 00:25:27,840
Speaker 1: summon if you want to win a trophy.

527
00:25:27,880 --> 00:25:29,159
Speaker 3: It seems to be accurate to me.

528
00:25:29,359 --> 00:25:32,480
Speaker 1: Continuing on the shout outs, shout out to Melbourne Ice

529
00:25:32,520 --> 00:25:34,959

00:25:52,040 --> 00:25:54,359

Speaker 1: win three matches in darts FA Cup style event. So

536
00:25:58,240 --> 00:26:01,119
Speaker 1: good that against the guys.

537
00:26:00,119 --> 00:26:02,800
Speaker 3: Tough to say, but I love darts because there's beer involved.

538
00:26:03,400 --> 00:26:07,040
Speaker 1: Maybe so full message I can see while we do it.

539
00:26:07,040 --> 00:26:08,040
Speaker 1: It was against the men.

540
00:26:08,400 --> 00:26:10,600
Speaker 3: Yes nice Bo, Yes.

541
00:26:10,520 --> 00:26:15,280
Speaker 1: Bo do it. Let's take a look at the key story, Dobo.

542
00:26:15,560 --> 00:26:18,280
Speaker 2: A new new report has shown that sponsorship deals in

543
00:26:18,320 --> 00:26:21,760
Speaker 2: women's sports are outpacing growth in select men's professional leagues

544
00:26:21,800 --> 00:26:25,880
Speaker 2: by nearly fifty percent. The report, by Sponsor United analyzed

545
00:26:25,920 --> 00:26:31,879
Speaker 2: brand sponsorships and endorsements for athletes and teams within the NWSL, WNBA, LPGA,

546
00:26:32,440 --> 00:26:36,840
Speaker 2: the Women's Tennis Association, and LEGA MX Feminee, which is

547
00:26:37,000 --> 00:26:40,879
Speaker 2: Mexico's football league. According to the report, sponsorship deals in

548
00:26:40,920 --> 00:26:45,399
Speaker 2: women's sports grew at twelve cent twelve cents. That's sometimes

549
00:26:45,440 --> 00:26:48,920
Speaker 2: it feels like twelve cents. Let's be real, grew at

550
00:26:48,920 --> 00:26:52,200
Speaker 2: twelve percent year on year, outpacing the eight percent year

551
00:26:52,240 --> 00:26:55,240
Speaker 2: on year growth across the five major men's professional leagues,

552
00:26:56,200 --> 00:27:00,000
Speaker 2: the NFL, the NBA, Major League Baseball, National Hockey Leage,

553
00:27:00,200 --> 00:27:02,600
Speaker 2: and Major League Soccer. So that was who was compared to.

554
00:27:04,000 --> 00:27:06,239
Speaker 2: Bit of stats for you, Yeah, tell me some stats, please, clo.

555
00:27:06,920 --> 00:27:10,160
Speaker 1: In the National Women's Soccer League the NWSL, they led

556
00:27:10,160 --> 00:27:13,359
Speaker 1: the way with a nineteen percent year on year increase

557
00:27:13,400 --> 00:27:17,520
Speaker 1: in sponsorship deals, narrowly surpassing the Women's National Basketball Association

558
00:27:17,600 --> 00:27:20,760
Speaker 1: the WNBA. No surprises for either of those leagues, right.

559
00:27:21,400 --> 00:27:25,760
Speaker 1: The Ladies Professional Golf Association the LPGA saw a fourteen

560
00:27:25,800 --> 00:27:30,199
Speaker 1: percent increase in sponsorship activity. WNBA's Cameron brink has the

561
00:27:30,280 --> 00:27:34,240
Speaker 1: most endorsement deals at thirty one wow, followed by tennis

562
00:27:34,240 --> 00:27:38,840
Speaker 1: star Sloane Stevens at thirty and WNBA's Angel Reese at

563
00:27:38,840 --> 00:27:39,520
Speaker 1: twenty five.

564
00:27:39,720 --> 00:27:44,119
Speaker 2: They're going'd be an interesting comparison to take those female

565
00:27:44,160 --> 00:27:47,199
Speaker 2: athletes and compare them to top male athletes in their

566
00:27:47,280 --> 00:27:50,199
Speaker 2: leagues if they have as many. I feel like the

567
00:27:50,320 --> 00:27:52,280
Speaker 2: part of me thinks that Cameron Brinck needs thirty one

568
00:27:52,840 --> 00:27:55,399
Speaker 2: to equal Steph Curry's six.

569
00:27:56,160 --> 00:27:59,159
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's a that's a very interesting discussion because it's like,

570
00:27:59,240 --> 00:28:02,159
Speaker 1: what are the thirty one paying? And yeah, if you

571
00:28:02,240 --> 00:28:04,000
Speaker 1: have five or six that are paying a lot more,

572
00:28:04,040 --> 00:28:05,760
Speaker 1: do you need thirty one or do you even have

573
00:28:05,840 --> 00:28:06,800
Speaker 1: capacity for thirty one?

574
00:28:06,880 --> 00:28:09,760
Speaker 2: Exactly, it's a lot harder to service thirty one commercial partners.

575
00:28:09,880 --> 00:28:12,840
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's a huge number, very difficult.

576
00:28:12,480 --> 00:28:16,880
Speaker 2: Her manager must be earning it some coin in money.

577
00:28:17,480 --> 00:28:20,840
Speaker 1: Well, yeah, six of the top ten athletes with the

578
00:28:20,880 --> 00:28:25,440
Speaker 1: most endorsement deals are from the WNBA. Financial brands were

579
00:28:25,640 --> 00:28:29,040
Speaker 1: the most visible throughout the twenty four to twenty five seasons,

580
00:28:29,119 --> 00:28:33,520
Speaker 1: with banks accounting for over forty percent of all finance deals. Well,

581
00:28:34,080 --> 00:28:36,480
Speaker 1: they've got the money, You've got the cash invest in

582
00:28:36,520 --> 00:28:41,320
Speaker 1: the sport. Beverage alcohol is the fastest growing sponsorship category.

583
00:28:42,200 --> 00:28:45,080
Speaker 2: Sponsor United noted that the surgeon sponsorship deals in women's

584
00:28:45,080 --> 00:28:48,440
Speaker 2: sport is being driven by competition between established sports marketing

585
00:28:48,440 --> 00:28:52,560
Speaker 2: brands and emerging challenges, with each racing to secure prime

586
00:28:52,640 --> 00:28:55,040
Speaker 2: partnerships before the market matures.

587
00:28:55,320 --> 00:28:57,840
Speaker 1: Yes, it's a race. We want it to be a raise.

588
00:28:57,920 --> 00:28:58,840
Speaker 1: That's good news.

589
00:28:59,160 --> 00:29:00,200
Speaker 3: I love a bit of competition.

590
00:29:00,360 --> 00:29:03,800
Speaker 2: Yes, The research found that alcohol, apparel and accessories, and

591
00:29:03,800 --> 00:29:07,840
Speaker 2: consumer products were leading this expansion. Indeed, the report shows

592
00:29:07,840 --> 00:29:10,720
Speaker 2: that alcohol brands, which historically are among the biggest spenders

593
00:29:10,720 --> 00:29:15,520
Speaker 2: in men's sports, are now diversifying their investments, doubling NWSL sponsorships,

594
00:29:15,520 --> 00:29:18,200
Speaker 2: and expanding into the WTA.

595
00:29:19,200 --> 00:29:21,920
Speaker 1: Bob Lynch, the founder and chief executive of Sponsor United,

596
00:29:21,960 --> 00:29:25,560
Speaker 1: said major brands are scaling their investments and forming deeper,

597
00:29:25,800 --> 00:29:30,040
Speaker 1: more sophisticated partnerships with leagues and athletes. Meanwhile, star players

598
00:29:30,080 --> 00:29:35,160
Speaker 1: are driving unprecedented visibility through endorsement deals, further reinforcing the

599
00:29:35,160 --> 00:29:39,800
