The Knights dominated latter Leader roosters. 7 00:00:28,640 --> 00:00:32,479 Speaker 3: That's tough in my events. It's definitely nothing to do 8 00:00:32,479 --> 00:00:34,960 Speaker 3: with the weekend I've just had. And coach Kim Maulke 9 00:00:35,159 --> 00:00:38,200 Speaker 3: signs the richest deal in women's college basketball history, signing 10 00:00:38,240 --> 00:00:42,280 Speaker 3: a new ten year contract was US thirty six million dollars. 11 00:00:42,680 --> 00:00:43,879 Speaker 2: We love to see it. 12 00:00:44,880 --> 00:00:48,720 Speaker 1: For the key story, we'll discuss netballer Maddie Proud's article 13 00:00:48,760 --> 00:00:52,480 Speaker 1: about concussion and its impact on female athletes. My name 14 00:00:52,680 --> 00:00:56,040 Speaker 1: is Chloe Dalton. I play AFOW for the GLS Giants, 15 00:00:56,080 --> 00:00:57,800 Speaker 1: and I'm joined every week on the show by my 16 00:00:57,880 --> 00:01:02,240 Speaker 1: co host Bez, who is a all things rugby. There's 17 00:01:02,600 --> 00:01:04,560 Speaker 1: you've had a large weekend. 18 00:01:05,200 --> 00:01:07,720 Speaker 3: It was medium sized, but yes, we've had a nice 19 00:01:07,720 --> 00:01:10,440 Speaker 3: little end of season trip down to Lake Conjola for 20 00:01:10,480 --> 00:01:15,759 Speaker 3: the Rats girls. We shared some stories and talked about 21 00:01:15,760 --> 00:01:17,280 Speaker 3: how good. We could have been. It was fun. 22 00:01:18,160 --> 00:01:19,440 Speaker 2: It's always the way, isn't it. 23 00:01:19,760 --> 00:01:21,280 Speaker 3: What about your friend? How was your weekend? 24 00:01:21,840 --> 00:01:24,600 Speaker 1: Oh? Look, we traveled down to Cambo to play some 25 00:01:24,640 --> 00:01:28,920 Speaker 1: footy against the reigning premieres, some Melbourne Demons, and our 26 00:01:28,959 --> 00:01:32,360 Speaker 1: first three quarters were pretty solid and our last quarter 27 00:01:32,480 --> 00:01:36,880 Speaker 1: was not so good. Yeah, and then had to sit 28 00:01:36,920 --> 00:01:38,920 Speaker 1: in the car for four hours home on a Sunday 29 00:01:38,959 --> 00:01:41,039 Speaker 1: night to get home at midnight feeling a bit sad 30 00:01:41,080 --> 00:01:45,119 Speaker 1: and sorry. And now we're moving house today. So it's 31 00:01:45,360 --> 00:01:49,160 Speaker 1: just a great weekend. The keeps getting better. It's a 32 00:01:49,200 --> 00:01:55,720 Speaker 1: bit on and help, let's take a look around the grounds. 33 00:01:57,160 --> 00:02:00,600 Speaker 3: In surfing, American Caroline Marks won her first Surfing World 34 00:02:00,680 --> 00:02:04,200 Speaker 3: title by defeating Hawaiian Chrisamore, who's the Olympic gold medalists 35 00:02:04,200 --> 00:02:08,160 Speaker 3: and five time world champion. Marks entered the WSL finals 36 00:02:08,160 --> 00:02:11,720 Speaker 3: seeded third and defeated number five seed Katie Simmons and 37 00:02:11,840 --> 00:02:15,160 Speaker 3: number two Tyler Wright of Australia to face More in 38 00:02:15,200 --> 00:02:18,200 Speaker 3: a best of three finals matchup. So it's a second 39 00:02:18,240 --> 00:02:19,960 Speaker 3: year in a row that Moore has gone to lower 40 00:02:20,000 --> 00:02:23,320 Speaker 3: trestles in California with this new final five system that 41 00:02:23,360 --> 00:02:26,880 Speaker 3: they do ranked number one but not walked away with 42 00:02:26,919 --> 00:02:30,480 Speaker 3: the world title. She must be feeling pretty ordinary about 43 00:02:30,480 --> 00:02:32,120 Speaker 3: this new system, just quietly. 44 00:02:32,160 --> 00:02:34,360 Speaker 1: Okay, can we discuss that while you say that, because 45 00:02:34,400 --> 00:02:36,520 Speaker 1: I was interested reading a lot of the comments on 46 00:02:36,680 --> 00:02:41,240 Speaker 1: the WSL page when Caroline Monks had won it, and 47 00:02:41,400 --> 00:02:43,600 Speaker 1: there are a lot of people saying this new system 48 00:02:43,639 --> 00:02:47,280 Speaker 1: is ridiculous, charism wore should be a seven time world champ, 49 00:02:47,320 --> 00:02:50,800 Speaker 1: blah blah blah. I get that because it is a 50 00:02:50,840 --> 00:02:53,840 Speaker 1: new format. But if you think about in let's use 51 00:02:53,880 --> 00:02:57,200 Speaker 1: football as an example. If you are the premiers, the 52 00:02:57,200 --> 00:03:01,760 Speaker 1: minor premiers of the season, you still have to go 53 00:03:01,919 --> 00:03:04,320 Speaker 1: and win the finals. That's the whole point of being 54 00:03:04,360 --> 00:03:07,320 Speaker 1: the best, is like you're the best because you're consistent 55 00:03:07,360 --> 00:03:09,320 Speaker 1: throughout the season, but then you're also the best because 56 00:03:09,320 --> 00:03:12,839 Speaker 1: you perform under the intense pressure of finals. Yeah. 57 00:03:13,000 --> 00:03:17,440 Speaker 3: I totally agree with you. However, there is that debate 58 00:03:17,560 --> 00:03:21,639 Speaker 3: and it's it's a caveat. But like for instance, when 59 00:03:21,639 --> 00:03:25,640 Speaker 3: you look at football, all of those premierships are first 60 00:03:25,639 --> 00:03:28,919 Speaker 3: past the post. So Premier League, WSL, all of that 61 00:03:29,080 --> 00:03:32,480 Speaker 3: is first past the post. You're the winner. And this 62 00:03:32,520 --> 00:03:36,440 Speaker 3: is because we are Australians who have grown up and 63 00:03:36,480 --> 00:03:42,480 Speaker 3: it lived in A Grand final is the ultimate game situation. 64 00:03:42,760 --> 00:03:45,600 Speaker 3: So so what effectively, and I think that's what surfings 65 00:03:45,600 --> 00:03:48,320 Speaker 3: tried to do. They've tried to introduce a grand final 66 00:03:48,400 --> 00:03:51,920 Speaker 3: day and that's what it is. And obviously for the 67 00:03:51,920 --> 00:03:55,960 Speaker 3: men the last two years, Felipe Toledo has finished first 68 00:03:56,080 --> 00:03:59,120 Speaker 3: and won the Grand Final, so to speak. So the 69 00:03:59,120 --> 00:04:01,480 Speaker 3: debate's not there. But for Carissa, for whatever it is, 70 00:04:01,480 --> 00:04:04,720 Speaker 3: she must hate lower trestles. But she got beat obviously 71 00:04:04,760 --> 00:04:07,880 Speaker 3: by fifth place Steph Gilmore last year and then this 72 00:04:08,000 --> 00:04:12,040 Speaker 3: year by third place Caroline Marx. So yeah, I get 73 00:04:12,080 --> 00:04:14,120 Speaker 3: what you're saying. I think it is if you want 74 00:04:14,160 --> 00:04:15,600 Speaker 3: to be the best, you've got to perform on the day, 75 00:04:15,720 --> 00:04:18,960 Speaker 3: in the moment. But More won three of the ten 76 00:04:19,000 --> 00:04:21,839 Speaker 3: events during the regular season, and she finished third in 77 00:04:21,880 --> 00:04:24,400 Speaker 3: three other events equal third maning she lost the semi, 78 00:04:25,080 --> 00:04:27,920 Speaker 3: so using the old format, she probably would have secured 79 00:04:27,920 --> 00:04:31,320 Speaker 3: the world title like two or three events ago. So 80 00:04:31,920 --> 00:04:33,440 Speaker 3: I hear you won a grand final. I like that. 81 00:04:35,960 --> 00:04:39,200 Speaker 3: Back to the story and we'll just leave Chloe's debate 82 00:04:39,760 --> 00:04:43,080 Speaker 3: where it belongs until she obviously has a conversation with 83 00:04:43,160 --> 00:04:47,120 Speaker 3: Jesse Biley Dyer and gets it a change the system back. Hey, Yeah, 84 00:04:47,360 --> 00:04:50,360 Speaker 3: twenty one year old Marx is the first Goofy for 85 00:04:50,480 --> 00:04:52,360 Speaker 3: It to win a women's world title since two thousand 86 00:04:52,400 --> 00:04:56,080 Speaker 3: and five when Ozzie Chelsea Jorkinson won. She set up 87 00:04:56,160 --> 00:04:58,120 Speaker 3: the event. I was just in my flow today. I 88 00:04:58,240 --> 00:05:00,760 Speaker 3: just had a special day with the ocean. There's definitely 89 00:05:00,760 --> 00:05:03,320 Speaker 3: going to be a massive party after this and everyone's invited. 90 00:05:03,720 --> 00:05:06,160 Speaker 3: How good I want to be there, saying, Mark's is 91 00:05:06,279 --> 00:05:09,719 Speaker 3: coached by Australian Luke Egan, and her vertical backhand attack 92 00:05:09,760 --> 00:05:12,320 Speaker 3: was lethal in the final. Egan has encouraged her and 93 00:05:12,360 --> 00:05:15,320 Speaker 3: I love this from Luke. He's obviously goofy himself. He 94 00:05:15,400 --> 00:05:18,240 Speaker 3: encouraged her to push her turns until she fell in 95 00:05:18,279 --> 00:05:20,640 Speaker 3: training so she understood how far she could take it. 96 00:05:21,000 --> 00:05:26,120 Speaker 3: Cool and yeah, so obviously in that final she was 97 00:05:26,240 --> 00:05:28,920 Speaker 3: just banging up some amazing backhand terms. It was pretty 98 00:05:28,920 --> 00:05:32,479 Speaker 3: cool to watch. She's always had the potential. She broke 99 00:05:32,520 --> 00:05:34,520 Speaker 3: records as a junior when she was the youngest surfer 100 00:05:34,520 --> 00:05:37,040 Speaker 3: to be added to the tour at fifteen years old, 101 00:05:37,720 --> 00:05:41,320 Speaker 3: and this was seen this I think world title is 102 00:05:41,560 --> 00:05:44,479 Speaker 3: definitely seen by many as Marks Fwani reaching her full potential, 103 00:05:44,480 --> 00:05:46,799 Speaker 3: and she had a rough season last year. She missed 104 00:05:46,800 --> 00:05:49,479 Speaker 3: most of the season due to some recurring medical and 105 00:05:49,520 --> 00:05:51,479 Speaker 3: health issues, and she I think she only competed in 106 00:05:51,480 --> 00:05:55,280 Speaker 3: the one event before kind of stepping away. But it's 107 00:05:55,320 --> 00:05:57,280 Speaker 3: definitely safe to say she's in a good space now 108 00:05:57,360 --> 00:05:59,320 Speaker 3: and she'll be looking forward to a massive twenty twenty 109 00:05:59,320 --> 00:06:02,200 Speaker 3: four that will include an Olympics berth for her and 110 00:06:02,279 --> 00:06:04,640 Speaker 3: also for more who she beat. They'll both be representing 111 00:06:04,920 --> 00:06:08,400 Speaker 3: the USA at the Olympics, which will be held in Tahiti. 112 00:06:08,720 --> 00:06:11,880 Speaker 3: Because how good it's a France island to play on. 113 00:06:12,480 --> 00:06:13,520 Speaker 2: Sure we'll take that. 114 00:06:14,120 --> 00:06:17,279 Speaker 1: In tennis, the US Opened finished on Sunday morning, and 115 00:06:17,440 --> 00:06:20,360 Speaker 1: nineteen year old Cocoa Gough had had to come from 116 00:06:20,400 --> 00:06:24,200 Speaker 1: one set down to defeat second seed or In Your 117 00:06:24,279 --> 00:06:28,320 Speaker 1: Sabolenka two six six' three six to two in the. 118 00:06:28,400 --> 00:06:31,560 Speaker 1: Final it Was gof's First Grand slam win and THE 119 00:06:31,640 --> 00:06:34,960 Speaker 1: Us open crowd were raucous throughout the.

Clubs clubs keen to get their 324 00:16:30,480 --> 00:16:32,920 Speaker 3: women's program on the big, stage but there's definitely some 325 00:16:33,040 --> 00:16:36,640 Speaker 3: concerns from others that the rapid expansion will have some 326 00:16:36,720 --> 00:16:40,840 Speaker 3: negative impacts on the. Game arguments against expansion point to 327 00:16:40,880 --> 00:16:42,640 Speaker 3: the injury toll that has been experienced by a number 328 00:16:42,680 --> 00:16:45,040 Speaker 3: of sides this, season and noted that squad size and 329 00:16:45,080 --> 00:16:47,920 Speaker 3: sizes are too small to provide coverage when injury. Occurs 330 00:16:48,120 --> 00:16:51,160 Speaker 3: it's an interesting one THAT i haven't thought deeply. ABOUT 331 00:16:51,200 --> 00:16:56,600 Speaker 3: i think you extend, seasons but you keep in any 332 00:16:56,680 --> 00:16:58,400 Speaker 3: and if you keep the squad size the same because 333 00:16:58,440 --> 00:17:02,240 Speaker 3: of obviously financial, constraints it does you, know contact sport 334 00:17:02,320 --> 00:17:05,280 Speaker 3: injuries do, occur so it does definitely put pressure on 335 00:17:05,320 --> 00:17:05,720 Speaker 3: that squad. 336 00:17:05,760 --> 00:17:09,600 Speaker 1: Size, yeah AND i think if we look AT afow, 337 00:17:09,640 --> 00:17:14,040 Speaker 1: example we've expanded too quickly and don't have enough. Games 338 00:17:14,680 --> 00:17:17,879 Speaker 1: AND i think THE nlw so far has done a 339 00:17:17,920 --> 00:17:22,040 Speaker 1: good job Of, yes it's been, slower but they've increased 340 00:17:22,040 --> 00:17:24,399 Speaker 1: the number of teams with the number of, games AND 341 00:17:24,440 --> 00:17:27,560 Speaker 1: i think it's a. While it's felt really slow for, 342 00:17:27,600 --> 00:17:30,240 Speaker 1: THEM i think for the sustainability of the. Game to, 343 00:17:30,280 --> 00:17:31,760 Speaker 1: me it makes sense the way they've done it so, 344 00:17:31,880 --> 00:17:35,680 Speaker 1: far SO i don't think it's worth. Rushing this episode 345 00:17:35,800 --> 00:17:39,040 Speaker 1: is brought to you by the Athletes, foot proudly supporting 346 00:17:39,119 --> 00:17:43,240 Speaker 1: women in sport since nineteen seventy.

Recovery now that's. 350 00:17:53,880 --> 00:18:00,000 Speaker 3: Fit, Yeah and as you, said there's obviously also concerned 351 00:18:00,160 --> 00:18:04,880 Speaker 3: about quality of the product when you expand, quickly because 352 00:18:04,920 --> 00:18:08,520 Speaker 3: there is a limited playing pool, Still like no matter 353 00:18:08,520 --> 00:18:12,720 Speaker 3: how you look at, it there's the kids coming up 354 00:18:12,760 --> 00:18:15,800 Speaker 3: and coming. Through now you, know there's obviously way more 355 00:18:15,840 --> 00:18:18,639 Speaker 3: than there was five years, ago but we're still not 356 00:18:18,800 --> 00:18:21,919 Speaker 3: quite at that point where there's anywhere near the amount 357 00:18:21,920 --> 00:18:23,920 Speaker 3: of young boys coming through plan that you can pick, 358 00:18:23,960 --> 00:18:27,160 Speaker 3: from so the playing pool is definitely. Limited they'll if 359 00:18:27,200 --> 00:18:30,160 Speaker 3: they do expand they'll absolutely be looking to do other 360 00:18:30,200 --> 00:18:34,119 Speaker 3: sports for. Sure and it's obviously really important that that 361 00:18:34,200 --> 00:18:37,640 Speaker 3: product and the output continue to improve in line with greater. 362 00:18:37,720 --> 00:18:40,720 Speaker 3: Investment the game needs to be competitive to entract to 363 00:18:40,720 --> 00:18:44,800 Speaker 3: attract that, investment and you, know they added four teams 364 00:18:44,840 --> 00:18:48,359 Speaker 3: this season and of those four, teams The cowboys And 365 00:18:48,400 --> 00:18:50,280 Speaker 3: tigers have just won have only won two games in 366 00:18:50,320 --> 00:18:52,840 Speaker 3: their first year of the. Competition they've been pretty. COMPETITIVE i, 367 00:18:52,840 --> 00:18:55,320 Speaker 3: mean The tiger's only lost by four on the weekend 368 00:18:55,400 --> 00:18:58,800 Speaker 3: to The. Broncos but, yeah it is it's a really 369 00:18:58,840 --> 00:19:02,080 Speaker 3: delicate balancing acts or be interest see if anyone does 370 00:19:02,480 --> 00:19:04,520 Speaker 3: put the hand up to be included from next. 371 00:19:04,600 --> 00:19:08,800 Speaker 1: Year Australian Rugby league comission Chairman Peter landers, said we 372 00:19:08,880 --> 00:19:10,840 Speaker 1: wanted to wait till the end of the season to 373 00:19:10,840 --> 00:19:12,560 Speaker 1: see how we went with the ten. Teams but we're 374 00:19:12,680 --> 00:19:16,119 Speaker 1: very excited about THE nrlw and we want it to 375 00:19:16,160 --> 00:19:18,320 Speaker 1: continue to grow and we believe that we can get 376 00:19:18,320 --> 00:19:22,040 Speaker 1: the pool of players even expanding next. YEAR i think 377 00:19:22,040 --> 00:19:25,760 Speaker 1: that's a really important thing that they are believing in the. 378 00:19:25,760 --> 00:19:28,199 Speaker 1: Game they're backing it and they wanted to. Grow SO i, think, like, 379 00:19:28,720 --> 00:19:31,159 Speaker 1: yes while there is consideration around some of the factors 380 00:19:31,200 --> 00:19:35,720 Speaker 1: that may impact if you expand too. Fast that sentence 381 00:19:35,720 --> 00:19:37,760 Speaker 1: didn't make, sense but, anyway BUT i just THINK i 382 00:19:37,800 --> 00:19:39,920 Speaker 1: think for, me the cool thing is that they're believing 383 00:19:39,960 --> 00:19:41,439 Speaker 1: in the game and they know the potential it. 384 00:19:41,480 --> 00:19:42,520 Speaker 2: Has they're. 385 00:19:42,520 --> 00:19:42,920 Speaker 3: Interesting. 386 00:19:43,560 --> 00:19:47,360 Speaker 1: Yeah The Brisbane broncos were the initials of Both Lavinia 387 00:19:47,400 --> 00:19:50,320 Speaker 1: gould And Tony hunt on the weekend in their twenty 388 00:19:50,400 --> 00:19:52,919 Speaker 1: two to eighteen win over The West tigers as a 389 00:19:52,960 --> 00:19:55,600 Speaker 1: show of support for the two.

STORY a bit 515 00:26:42,960 --> 00:26:46,159 Speaker 1: of a concussion discussion. TODAY i didn't plan. That that 516 00:26:46,240 --> 00:26:49,880 Speaker 1: was quite good. Though ossie netball Star Maddi prowd wrote 517 00:26:49,880 --> 00:26:52,359 Speaker 1: an article For Code sports this week that called on 518 00:26:52,440 --> 00:26:56,119 Speaker 1: sport to heed the warnings and take action to prevent 519 00:26:56,160 --> 00:26:59,280 Speaker 1: concussion in. Sport proud wrote about how the subject has 520 00:26:59,320 --> 00:27:02,240 Speaker 1: been a taboo topic among, athletes with it often being 521 00:27:02,359 --> 00:27:05,479 Speaker 1: something people tried to hide and tough it out to 522 00:27:05,520 --> 00:27:09,760 Speaker 1: avoid missing. Games proud has highlighted that female athletes need 523 00:27:09,840 --> 00:27:13,480 Speaker 1: even further research due to the anatomical differences between male 524 00:27:13,600 --> 00:27:14,160 Speaker 1: and female. 525 00:27:14,240 --> 00:27:18,080 Speaker 3: Athletes she touches on, how like we, said the subject 526 00:27:18,160 --> 00:27:22,280 Speaker 3: has negative connotations and can be perceived as negative press 527 00:27:22,280 --> 00:27:25,480 Speaker 3: for female. Sport many many athletes choose not to speak 528 00:27:25,560 --> 00:27:28,880 Speaker 3: up about those. Impacts but as she reflected on her, 529 00:27:28,920 --> 00:27:31,400 Speaker 3: career she realized she had invertly become the poster girl 530 00:27:31,440 --> 00:27:34,480 Speaker 3: for concussions in, netball and she wrote that while she 531 00:27:34,520 --> 00:27:37,280 Speaker 3: has been very fortunate to have had positive outcomes from 532 00:27:37,359 --> 00:27:40,280 Speaker 3: my concussion, Experiences i've only had to miss but then 533 00:27:40,400 --> 00:27:43,119 Speaker 3: required one week and haven't had any lasting. Issues but 534 00:27:43,600 --> 00:27:48,600 Speaker 3: concussions are. Complicated they don't present the same in every, 535 00:27:48,640 --> 00:27:51,960 Speaker 3: situation even within the same, person and different people will 536 00:27:51,960 --> 00:27:55,160 Speaker 3: show different symptoms at different. Times it's not as simple 537 00:27:55,160 --> 00:27:58,280 Speaker 3: as diagnosing a torn acl or broken. Arm there are 538 00:27:58,280 --> 00:28:01,120 Speaker 3: many more layers to diagnosing and treating this, injury and 539 00:28:01,160 --> 00:28:05,160 Speaker 3: that's why research resources and education are in my, opinion 540 00:28:05,480 --> 00:28:08,320 Speaker 3: key to ensuring we protect our most vital body, part our. 541 00:28:08,359 --> 00:28:12,879 Speaker 1: Brain it's a really interesting discussion, because as many is touched, 542 00:28:12,880 --> 00:28:15,800 Speaker 1: on it's not a case, oh it is a case 543 00:28:15,840 --> 00:28:18,240 Speaker 1: by case. Spaces it's not kind of this blanket rule 544 00:28:18,280 --> 00:28:21,160 Speaker 1: of if you tear your, hamstring this is what it feels, 545 00:28:21,240 --> 00:28:22,480 Speaker 1: like this is what it looks like on AN. 546 00:28:22,600 --> 00:28:24,840 Speaker 2: Mri these are the protocols to follow to return to. 547 00:28:24,880 --> 00:28:28,320 Speaker 1: Sport and it's a really really unique one BECAUSE i 548 00:28:28,320 --> 00:28:32,520 Speaker 1: think it's probably the only injury where there's a sole 549 00:28:32,600 --> 00:28:37,359 Speaker 1: responsibility on the player themselves to divulge the information about 550 00:28:37,400 --> 00:28:40,880 Speaker 1: the symptoms they're. Experiencing so there's baseline measures that happen 551 00:28:41,080 --> 00:28:43,440 Speaker 1: with head injury, assessment so at the start of every, 552 00:28:43,440 --> 00:28:47,560 Speaker 1: preseason teams that, well not even contact. Sports obviously netball 553 00:28:48,240 --> 00:28:50,440 Speaker 1: is it's pretty, physical BUT i don't think it would 554 00:28:50,480 --> 00:28:52,400 Speaker 1: be class technically as a contact, sport but they would 555 00:28:52,440 --> 00:28:56,240 Speaker 1: do baseline measures for, concussion and so that INVOLVES i 556 00:28:56,240 --> 00:29:00,600 Speaker 1: think we may have discussed it, before but things like 557 00:29:00,720 --> 00:29:03,040 Speaker 1: you get told ten WORDS i think it is, now 558 00:29:03,080 --> 00:29:04,480 Speaker 1: and then you have to repeat them back to the 559 00:29:04,520 --> 00:29:06,840 Speaker 1: doctor and then at the end of the, test you're 560 00:29:06,880 --> 00:29:09,040 Speaker 1: asked to actually recall those ten words and see how 561 00:29:09,080 --> 00:29:09,560 Speaker 1: well you can do. 562 00:29:09,640 --> 00:29:11,560 Speaker 2: That you have to say the months of the year in. 563 00:29:11,600 --> 00:29:13,760 Speaker 1: Reverse you have to say what day of the week 564 00:29:13,800 --> 00:29:15,080 Speaker 1: it is in all of those Six so if you 565 00:29:15,120 --> 00:29:18,400 Speaker 1: get concussed or suspected concussion during a match or, training 566 00:29:19,120 --> 00:29:22,320 Speaker 1: you then repeat that test and they can then determine 567 00:29:22,360 --> 00:29:25,280 Speaker 1: whether your scores are lower than what your baseline. Is 568 00:29:25,880 --> 00:29:29,240 Speaker 1: but you also have to answer questions of do you feel, 569 00:29:29,520 --> 00:29:32,160 Speaker 1: dizzy do you feel, tired do you feel a little 570 00:29:32,200 --> 00:29:34,320 Speaker 1: bit not right in the. Head and there's a lot 571 00:29:34,320 --> 00:29:38,720 Speaker 1: of pressure on athletes to be honest in that scenario 572 00:29:39,280 --> 00:29:42,040 Speaker 1: if it could potentially mean missing, games missing, finals and 573 00:29:42,080 --> 00:29:44,680 Speaker 1: things like. That so it, is As maddie's touched, on 574 00:29:44,760 --> 00:29:49,720 Speaker 1: it's a really complex. Injury and she finished the article, 575 00:29:49,720 --> 00:29:53,200 Speaker 1: writing just like any disease or, injury awareness is. Key 576 00:29:53,280 --> 00:29:55,400 Speaker 1: the more we start talking about these topics that might 577 00:29:55,480 --> 00:29:57,160 Speaker 1: make people feel, uncomfortable the. 578 00:29:57,240 --> 00:29:58,760 Speaker 2: Better but that. 579 00:29:58,720 --> 00:30:00,640 Speaker 1: Doesn't mean it's going to stop me from throwing myself 580 00:30:00,680 --> 00:30:03,520 Speaker 1: at any loose ball on the. Court she absolutely does 581 00:30:03,560 --> 00:30:05,520 Speaker 1: that and she will not be stopping that anytime. 582 00:30:05,600 --> 00:30:07,840 Speaker 3: Soon, NO i totally agree with what you. Said but 583 00:30:07,920 --> 00:30:10,000 Speaker 3: that was a really intelligent way to discuss, it because 584 00:30:10,920 --> 00:30:14,480 Speaker 3: it is anything that's self reporting is you, know it's 585 00:30:14,520 --> 00:30:18,000 Speaker 3: open to so many interpretations and you might not even 586 00:30:18,120 --> 00:30:21,600 Speaker 3: actually understand how you're. FEELING i think that's really key 587 00:30:21,640 --> 00:30:24,200 Speaker 3: for what many's out there, saying and IT'S i think 588 00:30:24,200 --> 00:30:27,600 Speaker 3: it's really really amazing of her to say awareness is. 589 00:30:27,680 --> 00:30:30,520 Speaker 3: Key people need to learn more about. It like you, 590 00:30:30,560 --> 00:30:32,719 Speaker 3: said it's not like a broken. Arm you, know you 591 00:30:32,760 --> 00:30:35,880 Speaker 3: can't see, it you can't scan. It it's just something 592 00:30:35,880 --> 00:30:37,720 Speaker 3: that you need to understand. Yourself AND i think there's 593 00:30:37,720 --> 00:30:40,200 Speaker 3: a lot of athletes out there that don't understand first of, 594 00:30:40,240 --> 00:30:43,640 Speaker 3: all the symptoms and second of all what the impacts 595 00:30:43,640 --> 00:30:45,200 Speaker 3: that it might have later on in. Life AND i 596 00:30:45,200 --> 00:30:48,920 Speaker 3: think that the more we get that into everyone's front of, 597 00:30:48,960 --> 00:30:51,840 Speaker 3: mind the better we can actually look after our. 598 00:30:51,880 --> 00:30:55,640 Speaker 1: Athletes completely. Agree let's take a look at what to 599 00:30:55,680 --> 00:30:57,160 Speaker 1: watch IN. 600 00:30:57,280 --> 00:31:01,080 Speaker 3: Aflw CAN i just say the games is fight so? 601 00:31:01,200 --> 00:31:04,520 Speaker 3: Far two rounds in super impressive with the. STANDARD i 602 00:31:04,520 --> 00:31:09,280 Speaker 3: think it's getting better every. Week it's.
