13
00:00:47,520 --> 00:00:50,320

00:01:05,360 --> 00:01:06,120
Speaker 2: it all over it.

20
00:01:06,560 --> 00:01:09,000
Speaker 1: Let's take a look around the grounds.

21
00:01:10,000 --> 00:01:13,360
Speaker 2: In at wnbl fifteen in a row for the towns

22
00:01:13,360 --> 00:01:16,880
Speaker 2: Will Fire and they've not come to the weight of

23
00:01:17,080 --> 00:01:19,200
Speaker 2: Sea Dalton jumping on their bandwagon.

24
00:01:19,560 --> 00:01:21,880
Speaker 1: It's not a bandwagon because it's been much more than

25
00:01:21,959 --> 00:01:25,119
Speaker 1: just this season. I know you're pushing your agenda. I'm

26
00:01:25,160 --> 00:01:27,760
Speaker 1: not like a Steph Curry bandwagoner, like back in the

27
00:01:27,840 --> 00:01:30,480
Speaker 1: day at Golden State Warriors play on.

28
00:01:32,360 --> 00:01:34,600
Speaker 2: In game one of the three match series, the Fire

29
00:01:34,720 --> 00:01:38,600
Speaker 2: were dominant, registering the largest winning margin in a Grand

30
00:01:38,600 --> 00:01:41,520
Speaker 2: Final game in history when they smacked the South Side

31
00:01:41,560 --> 00:01:45,039
Speaker 2: of Flies ninety four to sixty three. The Townsvill Entertainment

32
00:01:45,080 --> 00:01:47,760
Speaker 2: Center was pumping on Saturday night and the home side

33
00:01:47,960 --> 00:01:51,560
Speaker 2: absolutely came to play. They dominated early and went to

34
00:01:51,600 --> 00:01:54,840
Speaker 2: halftime up fifty seven to thirty eight, a commanding lead

35
00:01:54,920 --> 00:01:57,160
Speaker 2: that was never threatened in the second half. There was

36
00:01:57,280 --> 00:02:01,760
Speaker 2: the Fire's bench that really stood up. They owned the Flyers.

37
00:02:01,800 --> 00:02:03,080
Speaker 2: The Fire and the Flyers.

38
00:02:03,160 --> 00:02:05,560
Speaker 1: Yeah, there's a lot. Imagine commentating that game.

39
00:02:05,600 --> 00:02:07,840
Speaker 3: It'd be tough. You have to just go with Townsville

40
00:02:07,880 --> 00:02:09,680
Speaker 3: and south Side. I reckon you'd have to.

41
00:02:10,160 --> 00:02:12,840
Speaker 2: So they owned the Flyers bench forty six to fourteen.

42
00:02:12,960 --> 00:02:14,480
Speaker 1: It's a dominant bench.

43
00:02:14,680 --> 00:02:15,079
Speaker 3: Isn't it.

44
00:02:15,720 --> 00:02:18,520
Speaker 2: Backup guard at Sharlie Hill had twenty three points, shooting

45
00:02:18,520 --> 00:02:21,160
Speaker 2: at ninety seven percent in just twenty minutes on the court.

46
00:02:22,000 --> 00:02:24,440
Speaker 1: Mine is ninety Did you make up ninety seven? Yeah?

47
00:02:24,520 --> 00:02:26,520
Speaker 3: Ninety percent? Did I say ninety seven? I think so

48
00:02:26,680 --> 00:02:28,880
Speaker 3: it happens. Have you ever shot at ninety percent?

49
00:02:29,000 --> 00:02:30,360
Speaker 1: Maybe from the free throw flo.

50
00:02:33,240 --> 00:02:33,880
Speaker 3: Obviously?

51
00:02:34,440 --> 00:02:37,920
Speaker 2: You know, the Townsville fly were so dominant that import

52
00:02:38,040 --> 00:02:40,800
Speaker 2: Tiana Hawkins posted twenty points before being able to sit

53
00:02:40,840 --> 00:02:43,800
Speaker 2: out the entire fourth quarter. That's nice, not bad, sitting

54
00:02:43,840 --> 00:02:46,120
Speaker 2: down your staff for the final bits.

55
00:02:46,200 --> 00:02:47,679
Speaker 1: That's a convincing win, isn't it.

56
00:02:47,880 --> 00:02:50,040
Speaker 2: It was clear earlier the Fliers were suffering the effects

57
00:02:50,040 --> 00:02:52,519
Speaker 2: of a super tough three game semi final series against

58
00:02:52,520 --> 00:02:55,720
Speaker 2: the Melbourne Boomers, and besides guard Rebecca Cole, who led

59
00:02:55,720 --> 00:02:58,000
Speaker 2: her side with twenty points, there were just not enough

60
00:02:58,040 --> 00:03:01,399
Speaker 2: other scoring threats on the court for South side. Cole

61
00:03:01,440 --> 00:03:04,000
Speaker 2: set after the match like what she said here. She said,

62
00:03:04,040 --> 00:03:05,600
Speaker 2: we came here wanting to put on a good show,

63
00:03:05,600 --> 00:03:07,280
Speaker 2: but I think we didn't want it as much as

64
00:03:07,320 --> 00:03:10,400
Speaker 2: they did tonight. I'm disappointed, but I'm not defeated. It's

65
00:03:10,400 --> 00:03:14,160
Speaker 2: a series for a bloody reason. Get that India. That

66
00:03:14,240 --> 00:03:16,000
Speaker 2: was ugly on our end. We need to go back

67
00:03:16,040 --> 00:03:17,799
Speaker 2: and change some things. I'm excited for Wednesday and I

68
00:03:17,880 --> 00:03:20,200
Speaker 2: want to show them what we have got. The Fliers

69
00:03:20,200 --> 00:03:22,639
Speaker 2: will host Game two of the series at Victoria State

70
00:03:22,680 --> 00:03:24,799
Speaker 2: Basketball Center on Wednesday night and have to win to

71
00:03:24,840 --> 00:03:26,600
Speaker 2: force Game three in Towns, which would be on this

72
00:03:26,639 --> 00:03:27,519
Speaker 2: coming Saturday.

73
00:03:28,080 --> 00:03:31,240
Speaker 1: The carryover fatigue from that Game three, like that was

74
00:03:31,280 --> 00:03:34,200
Speaker 1: a really close match and it's not surprising that they

75
00:03:34,280 --> 00:03:37,040
Speaker 1: were still impacted by that one a little bit.

76
00:03:37,120 --> 00:03:37,360
Speaker 3: Yeah.

77
00:03:37,360 --> 00:03:42,040
Speaker 2: Taking into account too, they've had I think three players

78
00:03:42,120 --> 00:03:44,440
Speaker 2: ruled out for the season through injury, one of those

79
00:03:44,440 --> 00:03:44,840
Speaker 2: being the.

80
00:03:44,800 --> 00:03:46,360
Speaker 1: Goat that was that one hurt.

81
00:03:46,400 --> 00:03:47,400
Speaker 3: Didn't pretty impressive.

82
00:03:47,400 --> 00:03:49,000
Speaker 2: They've got there, but I'm sure they're not happy with

83
00:03:49,040 --> 00:03:51,000
Speaker 2: just getting there, And I reckon we might see a

84
00:03:51,000 --> 00:03:53,480
Speaker 2: bit of fire on Wednesday, a bit of fire against

85
00:03:53,520 --> 00:03:55,800
Speaker 2: the fire, fighting fire with fire.

86
00:03:55,920 --> 00:03:59,960
Speaker 1: Shall we say good? It's good from you. In netball,

87
00:04:00,200 --> 00:04:02,680
Speaker 1: sun Corp supernet Ball is back and the Grand Final

88
00:04:02,720 --> 00:04:05,600
Speaker 1: rematch was as good on court as it looked on paper.

89
00:04:05,960 --> 00:04:09,000
Speaker 1: The home side, playing in front of a big Perth crowd,

90
00:04:09,200 --> 00:04:11,720
Speaker 1: just got the win when Janelle Fowler scored on the

91
00:04:11,760 --> 00:04:15,080
Speaker 1: siren to secure a sixty two to sixty one victory.

92
00:04:15,520 --> 00:04:18,440
Speaker 1: Fowler was perfect for the Fever with fifty five goals

93
00:04:18,440 --> 00:04:20,840
Speaker 1: from as many attempts. What percentage is that best? That's

94
00:04:20,880 --> 00:04:24,440
Speaker 1: one hundred and it was the shooting that let the

95
00:04:24,520 --> 00:04:27,359
Speaker 1: Vixens down. They shot it only eighty percent in the

96
00:04:27,360 --> 00:04:30,359
Speaker 1: first half to go into halftime down thirty two to

97
00:04:30,400 --> 00:04:33,040
Speaker 1: twenty eight, and despite a spirited comeback, the Fever were

98
00:04:33,240 --> 00:04:36,120
Speaker 1: just too good. Fowler said after the match, it was

99
00:04:36,320 --> 00:04:38,919
Speaker 1: very intense. Good job to the Vixens who brought it

100
00:04:38,960 --> 00:04:41,040
Speaker 1: in the last ten minutes of the game, but congrats

101
00:04:41,080 --> 00:04:43,159
Speaker 1: to my girls. We held on and didn't let it

102
00:04:43,200 --> 00:04:45,839
Speaker 1: get to us. I reckon just us taking on each

103
00:04:45,839 --> 00:04:47,880
Speaker 1: week differently and knowing that we have what it takes

104
00:04:47,880 --> 00:04:50,880
Speaker 1: to take on each round and stay motivated within ourselves.

105
00:04:51,800 --> 00:04:55,000
Speaker 1: The Collingwood Magpies opened their season with a super impressive

106
00:04:55,040 --> 00:04:57,719
Speaker 1: win over the New South Wales Swifts seventy one to

107
00:04:57,760 --> 00:05:01,279
Speaker 1: sixty three at John Caine Arena. There was another perfect

108
00:05:01,279 --> 00:05:05,760
Speaker 1: shooting performance, this time from the Bagpays Jamaican superstar Shamona Nelson,

109
00:05:05,760 --> 00:05:08,600
Speaker 1: who finished with fifty three from fifty three attempts. People

110
00:05:08,680 --> 00:05:10,520
Speaker 1: have been working on their shooting in the off season,

111
00:05:10,520 --> 00:05:13,679
Speaker 1: haven't they. I just don't. It's it blows my mind.

112
00:05:14,240 --> 00:05:16,839
Speaker 1: It's it's kind of a weird thing. Like for anyone

113
00:05:16,880 --> 00:05:20,239
Speaker 1: to perform that number of repetitions at one hundred percent

114
00:05:20,320 --> 00:05:21,320
Speaker 1: is really impressive.

115
00:05:21,480 --> 00:05:23,279
Speaker 3: It's just elite, it really is.

116
00:05:23,320 --> 00:05:25,719
Speaker 2: And like you said, like there's not even one moment

117
00:05:25,760 --> 00:05:28,240
Speaker 2: for either of those two shooters where they you know,

118
00:05:28,320 --> 00:05:29,960
Speaker 2: were looking up at the ring and thought, oh, what

119
00:05:30,000 --> 00:05:32,560
Speaker 2: are we gonna have for dinner tonight and missed you

120
00:05:32,600 --> 00:05:35,640
Speaker 2: know what I mean, Like not even that little fade out.

121
00:05:37,440 --> 00:05:39,000
Speaker 3: I don't look. I don't know if you think about

122
00:05:39,040 --> 00:05:41,120
Speaker 3: what you're gonna eat while you're playing, I reckon you

123
00:05:41,120 --> 00:05:41,520
Speaker 3: probably do.

124
00:05:41,560 --> 00:05:44,599
Speaker 1: Actually, well, I don't know when playing. Definitely when I'm training,

125
00:05:44,680 --> 00:05:46,760
Speaker 1: like when I'm a really high conditioning session, I'm like,

126
00:05:46,839 --> 00:05:48,559
Speaker 1: if you finish this, you can have a big stake

127
00:05:48,640 --> 00:05:52,200
Speaker 1: for dinner. Nice, But more just the pressure of like

128
00:05:52,320 --> 00:05:54,320
Speaker 1: when you're going at one hundred percent and it's getting

129
00:05:54,320 --> 00:05:56,880
Speaker 1: towards the end of the game. More for me, it

130
00:05:56,880 --> 00:05:59,240
Speaker 1: would be less about the thoughts for dinner. It'd be

131
00:05:59,279 --> 00:06:01,479
Speaker 1: more the thoughts of don't miss this one.

132
00:06:01,720 --> 00:06:06,480
Speaker 3: Yeah, you're just waiting for the the miss the cas

133
00:06:06,720 --> 00:06:08,359
Speaker 3: I canna say the penny to drop, but that doesn't

134
00:06:08,360 --> 00:06:10,120
Speaker 3: really make any sense because that would kind of be

135
00:06:10,200 --> 00:06:11,360
Speaker 3: nice if it dropped.

136
00:06:11,080 --> 00:06:16,960
Speaker 1: In The impeccable defense from Molli Jovic and Ash Brazil

137
00:06:17,160 --> 00:06:19,560
Speaker 1: allow the Magpies to pull away from the Swifts and

138
00:06:19,640 --> 00:06:22,240
Speaker 1: chalk up their first victory of twenty twenty.

139
00:06:21,920 --> 00:06:23,239
Speaker 3: Three defense wins trophies.

140
00:06:23,279 --> 00:06:26,480
Speaker 2: In cricket, the Women's Premier League in India is halfway

141
00:06:26,640 --> 00:06:30,279
Speaker 2: through and on the weekend Kiwi Sophie Devine came so

142
00:06:30,560 --> 00:06:33,440
Speaker 2: close to scoring the first ever century in the competition

143
00:06:33,520 --> 00:06:33,840
Speaker 2: when she.

144
00:06:33,839 --> 00:06:37,520
Speaker 3: Crushed ninety nine runs from only thirty six balls.

145
00:06:37,680 --> 00:06:38,800
Speaker 1: That's so impressive.

146
00:06:38,920 --> 00:06:42,080
Speaker 3: She went berserk. How good is that berserk?

147
00:06:42,120 --> 00:06:44,400
Speaker 2: For the Royal Challengers Bangalore team, they should be called

148
00:06:44,400 --> 00:06:48,039
Speaker 2: the Bangalore Berserkers. The innings was just outstanding and left

149
00:06:48,080 --> 00:06:49,440
Speaker 2: her Aussie teammate Elise.

150
00:06:49,240 --> 00:06:50,159
Speaker 3: Perry all strike.

151
00:06:51,000 --> 00:06:53,719
Speaker 2: The effort saw the RC Bangalore team reached the total

152
00:06:53,720 --> 00:06:55,760
Speaker 2: of one hundred and eighty eight set by the Gujarat

153
00:06:55,839 --> 00:06:57,640
Speaker 2: Giants with twenty seven.

154
00:06:57,440 --> 00:06:58,120
Speaker 3: Balls to spare.

155
00:06:58,800 --> 00:07:01,320
Speaker 2: Pez said, after the most of the time when I've

156
00:07:01,320 --> 00:07:03,480
Speaker 2: seen her bat like that, it's been playing against her.

157
00:07:03,600 --> 00:07:05,840
Speaker 2: So for me selfishly. It's nice to be on her

158
00:07:05,880 --> 00:07:08,600
Speaker 2: side tonight. There are few people who can do what

159
00:07:08,640 --> 00:07:11,040
Speaker 2: she did tonight, but she's been doing it consistently for years,

160
00:07:11,120 --> 00:07:13,200
Speaker 2: and what she did tonight was special.

161
00:07:13,720 --> 00:07:15,120
Speaker 3: She was just clubbing them.

162
00:07:15,680 --> 00:07:16,880
Speaker 1: It's it's impressing.

163
00:07:16,960 --> 00:07:20,080
Speaker 2: I think the fifty fifty came up off twenty one

164
00:07:20,160 --> 00:07:22,000
Speaker 2: balls or something ridiculous.

165
00:07:21,720 --> 00:07:23,440
Speaker 1: And you just they just get in that flow state,

166
00:07:23,520 --> 00:07:23,800
Speaker 1: don't they.

167
00:07:23,920 --> 00:07:26,920
Speaker 2: Yeah, exactly, and the bowler just stands at the mark

168
00:07:26,960 --> 00:07:28,440
Speaker 2: and thinks, what am I going to bowl?

169
00:07:28,800 --> 00:07:31,120
Speaker 1: Yeah? And then the more they get into the bowler's head, right.

170
00:07:31,120 --> 00:07:31,680
Speaker 3: That it's all over.

171
00:07:32,480 --> 00:07:35,160
Speaker 2: The earlier match of the night saw Alissa Hilly's Up

172
00:07:35,440 --> 00:07:38,560
Speaker 2: Warriors become the first team to beat the tabletopping at

173
00:07:38,600 --> 00:07:42,400
Speaker 2: Mumbai Indians. Some excellent hitting from Ozzie's great Harris who's

174
00:07:42,400 --> 00:07:45,440
Speaker 2: called thirty nine and Tylie McGrath thirty eight led the

175
00:07:45,480 --> 00:07:47,000
Speaker 2: Warriors to a five wicket.

176
00:07:46,720 --> 00:07:47,840
Speaker 3: Win in the nineteenth over.

177
00:07:48,360 --> 00:07:52,000
Speaker 1: I like that the Warriors has his Z on the end. Warriors.

178
00:07:52,120 --> 00:07:54,680
Speaker 1: Warriors would your berserkers.

179
00:07:55,960 --> 00:07:57,640
Speaker 3: I might even have one in the middle and then

180
00:07:57,640 --> 00:07:59,000
Speaker 3: they'd be bez erkas.

181
00:07:59,200 --> 00:08:05,720
Speaker 1: That's good. That's good in football. The Australian Professional League's

182
00:08:05,880 --> 00:08:09,680
Speaker 1: Chief executive officer, Danny Townshend, confirmed last week that clubs

183
00:08:09,720 --> 00:08:12,520
Speaker 1: from Canberra and Auckland will join the A League in

184
00:08:12,560 --> 00:08:16,000
Speaker 1: the twenty twenty four to twenty five season, and two

185
00:08:16,040 --> 00:08:18,600
Speaker 1: more licenses are set to be awarded for the following

186
00:08:18,640 --> 00:08:21,520
Speaker 1: season and beyond. The move will see Canberra receive an

187
00:08:21,520 --> 00:08:24,960
Speaker 1: A League men's team to join the current standalone women's team,

188
00:08:25,000 --> 00:08:28,600
Speaker 1: and Auckland to start a new club entirely. Camber and

189
00:08:28,600 --> 00:08:31,760
Speaker 1: Auckland will pay expansion fees of about twenty five million

190
00:08:31,760 --> 00:08:34,280
Speaker 1: Australian dollars, with the new owners to be given a

191
00:08:34,280 --> 00:08:36,880
Speaker 1: share in the A Leagues along with the other twelve

192
00:08:36,960 --> 00:08:41,000
Speaker 1: existing outfits and other major stakeholders. The APL said that

193
00:08:41,080 --> 00:08:44,920
Speaker 1: all future bids must contain men's and women's teams as

194
00:08:44,960 --> 00:08:47,800
Speaker 1: well as assurances around facilities, with the favorites for the

195
00:08:47,800 --> 00:08:50,600
Speaker 1: twenty five to twenty six season being Tasmania and Darwin.

196
00:08:50,640 --> 00:08:52,120
Speaker 1: That's a pretty cool expansion, isn't it.

197
00:08:52,160 --> 00:08:52,559
Speaker 3: I think it is.

198
00:08:52,600 --> 00:08:55,719
Speaker 2: It's becoming the global game is becoming all over Australia

199
00:08:55,760 --> 00:08:58,920
Speaker 2: as well, an Australia game, Australia wide game.

200
00:09:00,480 --> 00:09:02,960
Speaker 1: Onto the next the awesomate goal is for the A

201
00:09:03,080 --> 00:09:06,520
Speaker 1: Leagues to be a sixteen team competition played over thirty

202
00:09:06,640 --> 00:09:09,240
Speaker 1: rounds and to build on the success of both national

203
00:09:09,240 --> 00:09:13,280
Speaker 1: teams in the international space to help grow the domestic league.

204
00:09:13,480 --> 00:09:16,280
Speaker 2: It'd be awesome to see some of those Matilda's and

205
00:09:16,320 --> 00:09:18,760
Speaker 2: soccer wos come back and play a bit more in

206
00:09:18,760 --> 00:09:23,760
Speaker 2: the domestic comp I mean, obviously financial reasons lead them overseas,

207
00:09:23,800 --> 00:09:25,760
Speaker 2: which you can't begrudge the players because a serious coin

208
00:09:25,800 --> 00:09:27,360
Speaker 2: on off or over there. But wouldn't it be great

209
00:09:27,440 --> 00:09:30,840
Speaker 2: to see them even maybe retire back here a few years,

210
00:09:30,880 --> 00:09:34,000
Speaker 2: like Sam Kerr when she's finishing off, go back to

211
00:09:34,040 --> 00:09:34,720
Speaker 2: Perth and finish.

212
00:09:34,920 --> 00:09:37,680
Speaker 1: Imagine what that would do for Australian football. It'd be

213
00:09:37,760 --> 00:09:40,960
Speaker 1: huge well, I mean she's done so much for Australian football,

214
00:09:41,000 --> 00:09:43,840
Speaker 1: but specifically for the A League women's that would do

215
00:09:43,880 --> 00:09:45,559
Speaker 1: a huge amount for the domestic league.

216
00:09:45,920 --> 00:09:49,520
Speaker 2: And now that those women are making some decent coin overseas,

217
00:09:50,360 --> 00:09:52,960
Speaker 2: it probably allows them to think, okay, I can go

218
00:09:53,000 --> 00:09:54,480
Speaker 2: and spend two years at the end of my career

219
00:09:54,520 --> 00:09:57,520
Speaker 2: at home building up my club again. It'd be really

220
00:09:57,640 --> 00:09:59,199
Speaker 2: nice to see and let's hope it happens.

221
00:09:59,320 --> 00:10:00,720
Speaker 1: Almost like that J effect.

222
00:10:00,960 --> 00:10:04,840
Speaker 2: Yeah, exactly like the LJ effect, thank you, maybe without

223
00:10:04,880 --> 00:10:07,040
Speaker 2: all of the operations on her legs.

224
00:10:07,400 --> 00:10:08,319
Speaker 1: She's had a rough run.

225
00:10:08,559 --> 00:10:12,360
Speaker 2: Really, we just keeps performing cause she's ago in basketball.

226
00:10:12,360 --> 00:10:15,720
Speaker 2: Speaking of LJ, March Madness has kicked off, And if

227
00:10:15,720 --> 00:10:18,000
Speaker 2: you got into our bracket, fun, I hope you haven't

228
00:10:18,000 --> 00:10:19,679
Speaker 2: busted your bracket already like I have.

229
00:10:20,000 --> 00:10:21,880
Speaker 1: Yours did yours bus quickly.

230
00:10:21,800 --> 00:10:22,400
Speaker 3: Pretty quickly.

231
00:10:22,480 --> 00:10:24,400
Speaker 2: I think your dad's winning. I'm pretty sure that's him,

232
00:10:24,760 --> 00:10:26,880
Speaker 2: is he? Yeah, Bradley, I'm off, Braday.

233
00:10:27,240 --> 00:10:28,720
Speaker 3: I've been watching. It's so good.

234
00:10:28,880 --> 00:10:32,800
Speaker 1: It's good quality basketball, so good.

235
00:10:33,320 --> 00:10:35,760
Speaker 2: So leading up to the tournament kicking off, ESPN announced

236
00:10:35,760 --> 00:10:40,080
Speaker 2: that it's sold out its NCAA Women's Basketball tournament advertising inventory,

237
00:10:40,640 --> 00:10:44,080
Speaker 2: including branding opportunities outside of the comp sixty seven games,

238
00:10:44,400 --> 00:10:47,760
Speaker 2: for the second consecutive year. They've done deals with fifteen

239
00:10:47,800 --> 00:10:51,360
Speaker 2: broadcast sponsors and nearly one hundred different advertisers.

240
00:10:51,400 --> 00:10:53,080
Speaker 3: So so, so good, so.

241
00:10:53,080 --> 00:10:54,040
Speaker 1: Good selling out.

242
00:10:54,679 --> 00:10:57,160
Speaker 2: ESPN has been expanding its coverage of the women's March

243
00:10:57,160 --> 00:11:01,320
Speaker 2: Madness Tournament before renegotiating its contract with the NCAA in

244
00:11:01,400 --> 00:11:04,400
Speaker 2: twenty twenty four. The current deal I think is actually

245
00:11:04,480 --> 00:11:07,280
Speaker 2: lumped in with the men's deal, so they're gonna they think,

246
00:11:07,320 --> 00:11:09,680
Speaker 2: if they're smart, they'll split it this year, like everyone,

247
00:11:09,720 --> 00:11:13,600
Speaker 2: you know, let's actually separate this. But the current kind

248
00:11:13,640 --> 00:11:17,040
Speaker 2: of pays around US thirty four million a year, and

249
00:11:17,080 --> 00:11:21,240
Speaker 2: experts believe that number could absolutely skyrocketing value after this

250
00:11:21,360 --> 00:11:26,320
Speaker 2: year's tournament. ESPN's at Women's selection show presentation, which was

251
00:11:26,400 --> 00:11:29,920
Speaker 2: on last weekend Our Time a week ago, averaged one

252
00:11:29,920 --> 00:11:32,439
Speaker 2: point two seven million viewers, which was an eighteen percent

253
00:11:32,520 --> 00:11:35,839
Speaker 2: jump from last year. Those numbers validated ESPN's decision to

254
00:11:35,840 --> 00:11:37,800
Speaker 2: shift that show from Monday night in the States to

255
00:11:37,840 --> 00:11:41,320
Speaker 2: Sunday night to primetime. So it is all happening and

256
00:11:41,320 --> 00:11:42,640
Speaker 2: the basketball is great, get around it.

257
00:11:42,920 --> 00:11:46,040
Speaker 1: I think if they do separate and renegotiate that deal,

258
00:11:46,600 --> 00:11:50,199
Speaker 1: there's such cold hard evidence of the growth year on

259
00:11:50,360 --> 00:11:55,240
Speaker 1: year in viewership numbers and filling those sponsorships slots, like

260
00:11:55,640 --> 00:11:58,560
Speaker 1: there's no real argument that it shouldn't be a huge increas.

261
00:11:58,320 --> 00:12:00,680
Speaker 3: They're not struggling to find advertisers.

262
00:12:00,320 --> 00:12:04,520
Speaker 1: No, they're not. More basketball news, Sabrini and Escu has

263
00:12:04,640 --> 00:12:09,080
Speaker 1: a signature sneaker through Nike, making her the twelfth WNBA

264
00:12:09,200 --> 00:12:12,480
Speaker 1: athlete to have their own shoe. She joins Brianna Stewart

265
00:12:12,480 --> 00:12:15,360
Speaker 1: and Elena del Don in releasing shoes in the last year.

266
00:12:15,840 --> 00:12:18,880
Speaker 1: Prior to that, Kandas Parker I Love Kandas Parker was

267
00:12:18,880 --> 00:12:20,840
Speaker 1: the most recent player to have a shoe, which she

268
00:12:20,960 --> 00:12:22,640
Speaker 1: released with added As in twenty eleven.

269
00:12:22,760 --> 00:12:24,439
Speaker 3: Interesting that big gap though, isn't it?

270
00:12:24,960 --> 00:12:27,280
Speaker 1: Yeah? That is It is quite a big one, isn't it.

271
00:12:27,320 --> 00:12:29,040
Speaker 2: There was a glut of not a glut, there's a

272
00:12:29,040 --> 00:12:32,440
Speaker 2: few of them around that twenty eleven time. But yeah,

273
00:12:32,480 --> 00:12:35,840
Speaker 2: then a big space before the next lot.

274
00:12:36,160 --> 00:12:36,880
Speaker 3: Really interesting?

275
00:12:37,320 --> 00:12:41,280
Speaker 1: What led to that? The New York Liberty star Sabrina

276
00:12:41,400 --> 00:12:43,920
Speaker 1: in Escu said, I think it's super important that it's

277
00:12:43,960 --> 00:12:46,000
Speaker 1: not just a shoe. It's about the story that it

278
00:12:46,080 --> 00:12:48,200
Speaker 1: tells and what it's going to do for everyone that

279
00:12:48,280 --> 00:12:51,720
Speaker 1: sees it and buys into it. It features a geometric

280
00:12:51,800 --> 00:12:54,920
Speaker 1: pattern inspired by Romanian art, a nod to where her

281
00:12:54,920 --> 00:12:59,240
Speaker 1: family's heritage is from. She said, it was important to

282
00:12:59,280 --> 00:13:01,760
Speaker 1: me to incorpor that's right where I come from, how

283
00:13:01,800 --> 00:13:03,960
Speaker 1: I got here, and a lot of the sacrifices that

284
00:13:04,000 --> 00:13:06,200
Speaker 1: my parents and my family have taken for me to

285
00:13:06,280 --> 00:13:08,400
Speaker 1: even play the game of basketball, and the game that

286
00:13:08,480 --> 00:13:11,000
Speaker 1: I love. The shoe will be released in April and

287
00:13:11,120 --> 00:13:14,400
Speaker 1: in unisex sizing as well as kids sizes, which was

288
00:13:14,480 --> 00:13:17,520
Speaker 1: important to Yuinescu. She said, I want kids and people

289
00:13:17,559 --> 00:13:21,480
Speaker 1: of all age rangers, males and females to be able

290
00:13:21,520 --> 00:13:23,360
Speaker 1: to get this shoe and see themselves in it and

291
00:13:23,360 --> 00:13:26,640
Speaker 1: the possibility of being who you want to be. It's

292
00:13:26,679 --> 00:13:29,520
Speaker 1: cool that a lot of the time it's not just

293
00:13:29,679 --> 00:13:32,920
Speaker 1: female athletes making products for young girls. Now there's a

294
00:13:32,920 --> 00:13:36,480
Speaker 1: real recognition of including young boys and that to also

295
00:13:36,520 --> 00:13:38,880
Speaker 1: be able to change their attitudes about it too, that

296
00:13:38,960 --> 00:13:41,080
Speaker 1: they can have an idol who's a female athlete.

297
00:13:41,240 --> 00:13:44,720
Speaker 2: It's the true many of the word inclusive, correct for all.

298
00:13:45,640 --> 00:13:49,920
Speaker 2: In baseball, Olivia A Pocado became the first women to

299
00:13:50,000 --> 00:13:53,360
Speaker 2: play in an NCAA Division One baseball game when she

300
00:13:53,559 --> 00:13:56,600
Speaker 2: pinch hit for Brown University around a demo of a

301
00:13:56,600 --> 00:13:58,920
Speaker 2: pinch it a pinch hit. Yeah, so she was a

302
00:13:58,920 --> 00:14:03,400
Speaker 2: designated hitter. Great, it's pinch hitting. So she didn't field

303
00:14:03,480 --> 00:14:06,920
Speaker 2: or anything, but they subbed her into hit for someone else.

304
00:14:07,520 --> 00:14:08,880
Speaker 2: Is my understanding of pinch hitting.

305
00:14:08,960 --> 00:14:09,880
Speaker 3: Great, we'll go with that.

306
00:14:09,920 --> 00:14:13,040
Speaker 2: The left handed batting utility player from Queens, New York

307
00:14:13,160 --> 00:14:14,959
Speaker 2: went to the plate with one out in the bottom

308
00:14:15,000 --> 00:14:17,000
Speaker 2: of the ninth inning and grounded out to first on

309
00:14:17,120 --> 00:14:19,360
Speaker 2: the first pitch she faced. It wasn't the most successful

310
00:14:19,400 --> 00:14:21,720
Speaker 2: pinch hit of a life, I'm sure, but she was there.

311
00:14:22,360 --> 00:14:25,640
Speaker 2: Pacado was an outfielder and pitcher on the USA Baseball

312
00:14:25,760 --> 00:14:28,640
Speaker 2: women's national team that won three or five against Team

313
00:14:28,640 --> 00:14:31,760
Speaker 2: Canada in its only games last summer. So she tried

314
00:14:31,760 --> 00:14:35,400
Speaker 2: out for Brown last year, and in November, coach Grant

315
00:14:35,440 --> 00:14:38,480
Speaker 2: Achilles told her she earned a roster spot. It's pretty cool,

316
00:14:38,560 --> 00:14:40,520
Speaker 2: isn't it. She was what they call a walk on,

317
00:14:40,720 --> 00:14:44,400
Speaker 2: so they basically just rock up to training and try out,

318
00:14:44,600 --> 00:14:47,720
Speaker 2: the kind of genuine definition of trying out as opposed

319
00:14:47,760 --> 00:14:52,080
Speaker 2: to being bought from somewhere else. Achilles said after the game.

320
00:14:52,200 --> 00:14:53,880
Speaker 2: I hope it shows people that if a player is

321
00:14:53,920 --> 00:14:56,800
Speaker 2: talented enough to be given the opportunity, that they should

322
00:14:56,800 --> 00:14:59,560
Speaker 2: be judged solely on their baseball abilities. No other factor

323
00:14:59,560 --> 00:15:01,920
Speaker 2: should play that and live as an example of that.

324
00:15:02,000 --> 00:15:04,680
Speaker 2: It doesn't just take her putting all the work and

325
00:15:04,680 --> 00:15:06,960
Speaker 2: effort in. It takes a network of people that have

326
00:15:07,040 --> 00:15:09,880
Speaker 2: supported her along the way. It takes teammates along the way,

327
00:15:10,000 --> 00:15:11,800
Speaker 2: Her teammates are a special group to be able to

328
00:15:11,800 --> 00:15:14,640
Speaker 2: both realize how historic this moment is, but also to

329
00:15:14,680 --> 00:15:17,040
Speaker 2: how to hold her accountable as a teammate to our

330
00:15:17,080 --> 00:15:19,480
Speaker 2: standard as a baseball player. And I think that's been

331
00:15:19,480 --> 00:15:21,160
Speaker 2: the most beautiful part of it for me, is that

332
00:15:21,200 --> 00:15:23,640
Speaker 2: she is a teammate. They don't handle her with white

333
00:15:23,640 --> 00:15:26,640
Speaker 2: gloves because it's different. They work to navigate the space

334
00:15:27,040 --> 00:15:29,240
Speaker 2: with her as an individual, and that's how she makes

335
00:15:29,280 --> 00:15:31,680
Speaker 2: our team better, is by bringing her best every day,

336
00:15:31,680 --> 00:15:35,920
Speaker 2: pushing others and then having that unique dynamic. Goose bumps

337
00:15:36,080 --> 00:15:40,160
Speaker 2: this Achilles boy, he like, that's quite beautiful that quote

338
00:15:40,160 --> 00:15:40,520
Speaker 2: from him.

339
00:15:40,520 --> 00:15:41,720
Speaker 3: Goosebumps as I was reading it.

340
00:15:41,840 --> 00:15:45,160
Speaker 1: Yeah, amazing, what a cool coach though he sounds so

341
00:15:45,360 --> 00:15:47,920
Speaker 1: well rounded in his approach to it, doesn't he And

342
00:15:47,960 --> 00:15:50,280
Speaker 1: I love that, you know, not sugarcoating it, Like she

343
00:15:50,480 --> 00:15:52,440
Speaker 1: has to be held accountable by her teammates, He has

344
00:15:52,480 --> 00:15:52,960
Speaker 1: to perform.

345
00:15:53,520 --> 00:15:55,480
Speaker 3: There's no free rides here.

346
00:15:55,640 --> 00:15:57,840
Speaker 1: And I imagine she would love that part of it.

347
00:15:58,120 --> 00:16:02,680
Speaker 2: And thrive underneath someone totally agree. Well done, Olivia, Well

348
00:16:02,680 --> 00:16:03,760
Speaker 2: done at coach Achilles.

349
00:16:04,760 --> 00:16:08,160

Speaker 1: a tournament that demonstrates our passion respect and drive towards

368
00:17:11,119 --> 00:17:14,800
Speaker 1: ensuring footballers of all abilities can proudly represent Australia in

369
00:17:14,800 --> 00:17:18,840
Speaker 1: the Asia Pacific region to host a historic, first ever

370
00:17:19,040 --> 00:17:22,399
Speaker 1: Women's Para Asia Cup. We'll follow our co hosting of

371
00:17:22,440 --> 00:17:25,359
Speaker 1: a historic fief at Women's World Cup and part of

372
00:17:25,359 --> 00:17:29,520
Speaker 1: our strategic vision through Legacy twenty three to transform how

373
00:17:29,560 --> 00:17:33,119
Speaker 1: women and girls in Australia see the full potential available

374
00:17:33,160 --> 00:17:34,200
Speaker 1: to them through football.

375
00:17:34,560 --> 00:17:35,399
Speaker 3: It's great, isn't it.

376
00:17:35,480 --> 00:17:37,399
Speaker 1: What a great story and what's also really cool in

377
00:17:37,440 --> 00:17:41,159
Speaker 1: that around the Latrobe facility. I remember when that was

378
00:17:41,200 --> 00:17:43,400
Speaker 1: announced and there was a discussion around the use at

379
00:17:43,760 --> 00:17:46,440
Speaker 1: community level, but I think the inclusion piece is really

380
00:17:46,480 --> 00:17:49,520
Speaker 1: big here that it's also allowing para athletes the ability

381
00:17:49,560 --> 00:17:52,000
Speaker 1: to play on the world stage.

382
00:17:51,720 --> 00:17:54,800
Speaker 2: In some really fantastic facilities. Yeah, not just out the

383
00:17:54,840 --> 00:17:56,080
Speaker 2: back exactly right.

384
00:17:56,160 --> 00:17:58,399
Speaker 3: It's so good, so so good.

385
00:17:58,960 --> 00:18:02,240
Speaker 2: And in some good news this week out of FIFA Rollercoasters,

386
00:18:02,680 --> 00:18:09,040
Speaker 2: Swings and roundabouts, FIFA President jian I Infantino announced an

387
00:18:09,040 --> 00:18:12,440
Speaker 2: increased tournament fund that include a three hundred percent jump

388
00:18:12,520 --> 00:18:14,880
Speaker 2: in prize money, as well as greater funds for team

389
00:18:15,000 --> 00:18:18,400
Speaker 2: preparation and payments to play as clubs the funding will

390
00:18:18,440 --> 00:18:21,280
Speaker 2: increase to US one hundred and fifty two million, which

391
00:18:21,320 --> 00:18:24,399
Speaker 2: is about two twenty nine Aussie for the first thirty

392
00:18:24,400 --> 00:18:28,679
Speaker 2: two women's thirty two team at women's edition, which is

393
00:18:28,680 --> 00:18:31,119
Speaker 2: still somewhat short of the Men's World Cup in Qatar

394
00:18:31,280 --> 00:18:34,280
Speaker 2: last year, which had a total prize book pull of US.

395
00:18:34,080 --> 00:18:35,240
Speaker 3: Four hundred and forty million.

396
00:18:36,040 --> 00:18:40,359
Speaker 2: Infantino said that that FIFA intends to equalize prize money

397
00:18:40,359 --> 00:18:42,680
Speaker 2: for the tournament at their next World Cups in twenty

398
00:18:42,720 --> 00:18:45,160
Speaker 2: twenty six and twenty twenty seven, respectively.

399
00:18:45,920 --> 00:18:47,359
Speaker 3: Intends is a pretty loose word.

400
00:18:47,920 --> 00:18:51,240
Speaker 1: Intens is a bit loose. I like that, it's it's

401
00:18:51,280 --> 00:18:52,760
Speaker 1: been spoken aloud.

402
00:18:52,960 --> 00:18:54,879
Speaker 2: Very true, and he's not on the way out. I

403
00:18:54,920 --> 00:18:58,320
Speaker 2: think it's part of this press conference was him being

404
00:18:58,400 --> 00:19:00,639
Speaker 2: very appointed. Yeah, so that's kind of is not like

405
00:19:00,880 --> 00:19:03,439
Speaker 2: I'll say this and leave, leave a good legacy and

406
00:19:03,480 --> 00:19:05,280
Speaker 2: say good luck to the next bro person.

407
00:19:05,800 --> 00:19:06,800
Speaker 3: Definitely should be a woman.

408
00:19:07,520 --> 00:19:10,280
Speaker 2: He also said that a portion of the US one

409
00:19:10,359 --> 00:19:12,960
Speaker 2: hundred and ten million dollars in a pure prize money

410
00:19:12,960 --> 00:19:16,720
Speaker 2: should be dedicated to paying players, supporting the Players Union

411
00:19:16,840 --> 00:19:21,280
Speaker 2: fIF fIF PRO fIF PRO, which challenged FIFA to secure

412
00:19:21,280 --> 00:19:23,560
Speaker 2: a global guarantee of at least thirty percent of prize

413
00:19:23,560 --> 00:19:25,600
Speaker 2: money paid to players. So there was a letter written

414
00:19:25,640 --> 00:19:29,879
Speaker 2: by Fifth pro saying that some that FIFA should actually

415
00:19:29,880 --> 00:19:31,680
Speaker 2: step in and say that a certain amount of the

416
00:19:31,720 --> 00:19:33,880
Speaker 2: prize money should go directly to players. I don't think

417
00:19:33,880 --> 00:19:37,959
Speaker 2: that's a directive anywhere. So yeah, he's kind of doubled

418
00:19:37,960 --> 00:19:39,760
Speaker 2: down on that and said that it should be dedicated.

419
00:19:39,760 --> 00:19:42,879
Speaker 2: I don't think that any ruling as such, but definitely

420
00:19:42,920 --> 00:19:43,800
Speaker 2: all going in the right direction.

421
00:19:43,840 --> 00:19:45,880
Speaker 1: As you say, there's a lot of words being spoken.

422
00:19:45,920 --> 00:19:48,439
Speaker 1: We want continued action off the back of it. But

423
00:19:48,560 --> 00:19:51,359
Speaker 1: the breakdown of that one hundred and fifty two million

424
00:19:51,640 --> 00:19:54,919
Speaker 1: US fund is one hundred and ten million dollars for

425
00:19:54,960 --> 00:19:58,800
Speaker 1: prize money, thirty one million in preparation funds, and eleven

426
00:19:58,840 --> 00:20:03,119
Speaker 1: million to club benefit. He again called out broadcasters for

427
00:20:03,200 --> 00:20:06,879
Speaker 1: offering too little for TV rights, saying women deserve much

428
00:20:07,200 --> 00:20:09,360
Speaker 1: much more than that, and we are there to fight

429
00:20:09,400 --> 00:20:12,400
Speaker 1: for them and with them. He noted that broadcasters had

430
00:20:12,400 --> 00:20:15,480
Speaker 1: offered up to one hundred times less for rights the

431
00:20:15,520 --> 00:20:18,960
Speaker 1: women's tournament and said FIFA refused to sell at those levels.

432
00:20:19,200 --> 00:20:22,840
Speaker 1: So twenty nineteen Women's World Cup bes there was I

433
00:20:22,840 --> 00:20:26,520
Speaker 1: think about one point two million people at the games

434
00:20:26,680 --> 00:20:29,879
Speaker 1: live ticket sales and over a billion people globally that

435
00:20:29,960 --> 00:20:30,639
Speaker 1: watched the match.

436
00:20:31,359 --> 00:20:36,280
Speaker 2: So to say, yeah, were half price kid themselves, absolutely

437
00:20:36,320 --> 00:20:38,040
Speaker 2: kidding themselves and good on them for holding out.

438
00:20:38,320 --> 00:20:40,399
Speaker 1: Yeah, I respect that from him. Yeah, he's saying some

439
00:20:40,480 --> 00:20:41,040
Speaker 1: good words.

440
00:20:41,119 --> 00:20:43,359
Speaker 2: He's saying all the good words. They also confirmed that

441
00:20:43,400 --> 00:20:46,199
Speaker 2: the event will thankfully not be sponsored by the Saudi

442
00:20:46,200 --> 00:20:50,520
Speaker 2: Ara Saudi Arabia Tourism Authority. In Fatino, he kind of

443
00:20:51,119 --> 00:20:54,040
Speaker 2: he wasn't too happy about the outcry the potential sponsored

444
00:20:54,080 --> 00:20:56,439
Speaker 2: deal created. He suggested there was a double standard at

445
00:20:56,480 --> 00:20:59,840
Speaker 2: play given Australian companies at export trade to Saudi Arabia

446
00:20:59,840 --> 00:21:03,640
Speaker 2: with US one point five billion dollars each year, and

447
00:21:04,160 --> 00:21:05,439
Speaker 2: he said this doesn't seem to.

448
00:21:05,440 --> 00:21:06,760
Speaker 3: Be a problem or an issue.

449
00:21:07,000 --> 00:21:11,879
Speaker 2: So always taking shots five taking Australia's export export business

450
00:21:11,880 --> 00:21:14,760
Speaker 2: to account and that's Look, that's all well and good,

451
00:21:14,760 --> 00:21:16,440
Speaker 2: but at the end of the day, this is a

452
00:21:16,480 --> 00:21:20,560
Speaker 2: female sporting event that's saying no, this isn't suitable. The

453
00:21:20,600 --> 00:21:23,879
Speaker 2: Australian Soccer Federation issued a statement saying it welcomed FIFA

454
00:21:24,480 --> 00:21:29,199
Speaker 2: clarifying the visit Saudi speculation and noted equality diversity and

455
00:21:29,240 --> 00:21:32,359
Speaker 2: inclusion are really deep commitments Football Australia and will continue

456
00:21:32,359 --> 00:21:34,520
Speaker 2: to work hard with FIFA to ensure the Women's World

457
00:21:34,520 --> 00:21:36,000
Speaker 2: Cup is shaped in this light.

458
00:21:36,600 --> 00:21:39,280
Speaker 1: Nice. Let's take a look at what to watch.

459
00:21:40,720 --> 00:21:44,000
Speaker 2: Fire and the Flyers played Game two of the WNBO
