First, let's take a look around the grounds 19 00:01:03,920 --> 00:01:08,000 Speaker 1: in AFLW. The twenty twenty two home and away season 20 00:01:08,040 --> 00:01:11,240 Speaker 1: came to an end on Sunday and Adelaide Crows not 21 00:01:11,319 --> 00:01:14,920 Speaker 1: surprisingly claimed the minor premiership after thumping Saint Killed up 22 00:01:14,920 --> 00:01:17,440 Speaker 1: by thirty nine points. The win left the Crows with 23 00:01:17,480 --> 00:01:20,400 Speaker 1: an impressive record of nine wins and only one loss, 24 00:01:20,760 --> 00:01:23,480 Speaker 1: which is the same record as the Melbourne Demons, but 25 00:01:23,800 --> 00:01:27,080 Speaker 1: we know that Adelaide's superior percentage in terms of their 26 00:01:27,800 --> 00:01:30,080 Speaker 1: points for and against meant the Crows finished on top 27 00:01:30,080 --> 00:01:32,840 Speaker 1: of the ladder again. The Crows and the D's in 28 00:01:32,959 --> 00:01:35,240 Speaker 1: position one and two will now have next weekend off 29 00:01:35,240 --> 00:01:38,920 Speaker 1: and await the winners from the two qualifying finals. In 30 00:01:39,240 --> 00:01:44,480 Speaker 1: other AFLW news, AFL CEO Gil McLaughlin has revealed somewhat 31 00:01:44,520 --> 00:01:48,680 Speaker 1: controversial news about the League's preference is for the next 32 00:01:48,760 --> 00:01:52,480 Speaker 1: season to begin in the pre finals by weekend of 33 00:01:52,520 --> 00:01:55,400 Speaker 1: the men's season, So that means the season would start 34 00:01:55,440 --> 00:01:58,160 Speaker 1: in August of this year twenty twenty two and run 35 00:01:58,240 --> 00:02:02,560 Speaker 1: until November, which means we're. 36 00:02:01,400 --> 00:02:02,920 Speaker 2: Generally on six month contracts. 37 00:02:03,000 --> 00:02:04,920 Speaker 1: We kind of go in do preseason play and then 38 00:02:04,920 --> 00:02:06,560 Speaker 1: we have six months off and then we go again. 39 00:02:06,880 --> 00:02:10,200 Speaker 1: It would mean that we'd probably have about six weeks 40 00:02:10,240 --> 00:02:12,560 Speaker 1: off and then start the new season all over again 41 00:02:12,600 --> 00:02:16,760 Speaker 1: and would mean two seasons in twenty twenty two. Gill 42 00:02:16,800 --> 00:02:19,240 Speaker 1: outlined a number of benefits to starting the season on 43 00:02:19,280 --> 00:02:22,520 Speaker 1: the by weekend, including having clear air for the first 44 00:02:22,520 --> 00:02:26,320 Speaker 1: weekend of AFLW, playing double headers during the men's final series, 45 00:02:26,360 --> 00:02:29,000 Speaker 1: and finishing the season in further clear air after the 46 00:02:29,000 --> 00:02:32,400 Speaker 1: men's season has finished. He also suggested that perhaps an 47 00:02:32,520 --> 00:02:35,480 Speaker 1: entire round of AFLW could be played in Melbourne on 48 00:02:35,520 --> 00:02:38,720 Speaker 1: the public holiday Friday before the men's Grand Final. There's 49 00:02:38,720 --> 00:02:41,919 Speaker 1: been a lot of discussion around where to best run 50 00:02:42,080 --> 00:02:45,600 Speaker 1: the season, with hard grounds and extreme heat two big 51 00:02:45,639 --> 00:02:48,120 Speaker 1: reasons to move the window away from the current summer season. 52 00:02:48,919 --> 00:02:51,600 Speaker 1: Many AFLW players are calling for a full home and 53 00:02:51,600 --> 00:02:54,000 Speaker 1: away season to mirror the men's season, where you play 54 00:02:54,360 --> 00:02:58,560 Speaker 1: each team. However, at this stage, the AFLW have confirmed 55 00:02:58,560 --> 00:03:01,040 Speaker 1: the season will most likely remain as a ten rounds 56 00:03:01,160 --> 00:03:03,240 Speaker 1: plus finals for at least the next season. 57 00:03:03,919 --> 00:03:07,920 Speaker 3: Thoughts on I guess moving it to that August window 58 00:03:09,320 --> 00:03:12,520 Speaker 3: for you, I think double headers are an interesting topic. 59 00:03:13,200 --> 00:03:16,320 Speaker 1: Yeah, I don't know how I feel about double headers. 60 00:03:16,360 --> 00:03:20,280 Speaker 1: I think I understand the reasoning behind it and the idea, 61 00:03:20,360 --> 00:03:23,080 Speaker 1: and I like the idea of creating this atmosphere in 62 00:03:23,080 --> 00:03:25,480 Speaker 1: this environment where people can come and watch both men's 63 00:03:25,480 --> 00:03:29,680 Speaker 1: and women's footy. Football's probably a tough game to commit 64 00:03:29,720 --> 00:03:31,760 Speaker 1: to watch that long. Our games don't go for as long, 65 00:03:31,800 --> 00:03:33,639 Speaker 1: but the men's games are pretty long. It's a big 66 00:03:33,639 --> 00:03:35,280 Speaker 1: commitment if we want to try and appeal to this 67 00:03:35,360 --> 00:03:37,840 Speaker 1: audience and have kids and young people coming along for 68 00:03:37,840 --> 00:03:40,280 Speaker 1: a really long time for them to go to the ground. 69 00:03:40,280 --> 00:03:43,360 Speaker 1: And also, we were chatting earlier about the other complicating 70 00:03:43,360 --> 00:03:44,320 Speaker 1: factors that it brings in. 71 00:03:44,480 --> 00:03:45,640 Speaker 2: Are there enough change rooms? 72 00:03:45,640 --> 00:03:47,880 Speaker 1: Do the women then get access to the same level 73 00:03:47,880 --> 00:03:50,280 Speaker 1: of facilities as what the men's teams do, And. 74 00:03:50,240 --> 00:03:54,200 Speaker 3: There's things to obviously Rugby union we do this year, 75 00:03:54,360 --> 00:03:58,040 Speaker 3: have a lot of double headers, certain things to also consider. 76 00:03:58,040 --> 00:04:00,640 Speaker 4: A warm up. 77 00:04:00,480 --> 00:04:05,520 Speaker 3: Facilities, so if you are playing before the men, how 78 00:04:05,800 --> 00:04:08,000 Speaker 3: far before the men? So again it's a very long 79 00:04:08,080 --> 00:04:09,840 Speaker 3: day because do the men need to warm up on 80 00:04:09,880 --> 00:04:11,600 Speaker 3: the ground and if they do, then you need a 81 00:04:11,760 --> 00:04:16,480 Speaker 3: police space of an hour or so between the matches. Interestingly, 82 00:04:16,880 --> 00:04:20,480 Speaker 3: the Brisbane Lines and Magpie's is a double header this 83 00:04:20,600 --> 00:04:21,640 Speaker 3: weekend at the Gabba. 84 00:04:21,839 --> 00:04:24,440 Speaker 4: Yeah, so alongside they're around once that there'll be a nice. 85 00:04:24,320 --> 00:04:26,880 Speaker 3: Little test case, I guess to see what it's like 86 00:04:27,240 --> 00:04:30,800 Speaker 3: at a major stadium like the Gabba for those girls. 87 00:04:30,800 --> 00:04:34,279 Speaker 3: So that I think they bounce off at four pm. 88 00:04:34,440 --> 00:04:35,760 Speaker 3: I definitely know it's not bounce off. 89 00:04:35,920 --> 00:04:39,880 Speaker 1: Bounce off actually on that. I've quite enjoyed the NRLW 90 00:04:40,000 --> 00:04:42,400 Speaker 1: the way they've had these triple header games. 91 00:04:42,520 --> 00:04:43,640 Speaker 4: Yeah, all the one location. 92 00:04:43,880 --> 00:04:44,920 Speaker 2: Yeah, and it's kind of nice. 93 00:04:45,000 --> 00:04:47,279 Speaker 1: You can just have the TV on even if you're 94 00:04:47,320 --> 00:04:49,560 Speaker 1: doing things watching like you know what I mean, And 95 00:04:49,600 --> 00:04:51,200 Speaker 1: it's kind of just on and you can just watch 96 00:04:51,240 --> 00:04:52,960 Speaker 1: it and then the next game comes on, next game 97 00:04:52,960 --> 00:04:53,279 Speaker 1: comes on. 98 00:04:53,320 --> 00:04:54,120 Speaker 2: I kind of like that. 99 00:04:54,839 --> 00:04:57,560 Speaker 4: Yeah, so almost like a Gala day kind of. 100 00:04:58,200 --> 00:04:59,960 Speaker 1: We've just turned this into the key story and it's 101 00:05:00,120 --> 00:05:02,400 Speaker 1: the first story of the week.

A couple of inches can't 185 00:08:40,480 --> 00:08:42,920 Speaker 3: be the difference between can be the difference between the 186 00:08:42,920 --> 00:08:46,320 Speaker 3: best run of your life and straddling a gate, especially in. 187 00:08:46,240 --> 00:08:47,880 Speaker 2: Slalom that sounds painful. 188 00:08:48,040 --> 00:08:50,640 Speaker 3: Par and competing with her sighted gud Bobby Kelly finished 189 00:08:50,679 --> 00:08:54,200 Speaker 3: sixth in Friday's Vision impaired Giant Salem and unfortunately did 190 00:08:54,240 --> 00:08:57,360 Speaker 3: state that Beijing, her fourth Paralympics, would be her last. 191 00:08:57,920 --> 00:09:03,679 Speaker 1: Congrat smell on an excellent career in the WNBL.

After 212 00:10:12,160 --> 00:10:15,360 Speaker 1: a pretty tumultuous Tokyo twenty twenty campaign, the Opals captain 213 00:10:15,360 --> 00:10:17,480 Speaker 1: took some time away from the Australian team to focus 214 00:10:17,520 --> 00:10:18,439 Speaker 1: on her mental health. 215 00:10:18,960 --> 00:10:21,040 Speaker 2: Mental health is a subject that is very close to 216 00:10:21,080 --> 00:10:21,480 Speaker 2: her heart. 217 00:10:21,600 --> 00:10:24,120 Speaker 1: Two years ago, she spoke publicly about the death of 218 00:10:24,160 --> 00:10:26,960 Speaker 1: her uncle who died by suicide and she has since 219 00:10:27,000 --> 00:10:31,400 Speaker 1: become an advocate for mental health awareness. She championed the 220 00:10:31,520 --> 00:10:34,959 Speaker 1: wnbl's Lifeline Round, where each club donated one hundred dollars 221 00:10:34,960 --> 00:10:38,520 Speaker 1: for every three point basket. The round raised fifteen thousand 222 00:10:38,520 --> 00:10:42,720 Speaker 1: dollars for Lifeline. Friend of Tefap who was on Season 223 00:10:42,760 --> 00:10:45,160 Speaker 1: one if you want to listen to the Kayla George episode, 224 00:10:45,200 --> 00:10:47,600 Speaker 1: had a huge weekend helping the Melbourn Boomers to a 225 00:10:47,640 --> 00:10:51,200 Speaker 1: convincing win against Adelaide Lightning in Adelaide, seventy two to 226 00:10:51,240 --> 00:10:55,600 Speaker 1: forty nine. The match was George's three hundredth WNBL appearance 227 00:10:55,600 --> 00:10:57,800 Speaker 1: and she ended the match with a double double twelve 228 00:10:57,800 --> 00:10:59,640 Speaker 1: points and thirteen rebounds. 229 00:11:00,840 --> 00:11:03,720 Speaker 3: In some more Soccer or football, because this is reports 230 00:11:03,720 --> 00:11:06,439 Speaker 3: out of the UK, they state that the Football Association 231 00:11:06,520 --> 00:11:09,240 Speaker 3: will increase prize money for the Women's FA Cup by 232 00:11:09,400 --> 00:11:13,280 Speaker 3: as much as ten times. The pay disparity in the 233 00:11:13,280 --> 00:11:15,600 Speaker 3: competition has come under fire on a number of occasions, 234 00:11:15,600 --> 00:11:18,120 Speaker 3: with some clubs even saying the lack of prize money 235 00:11:18,160 --> 00:11:20,720 Speaker 3: makes it difficult to cover the costs of even playing 236 00:11:20,720 --> 00:11:23,600 Speaker 3: in the tournament. Currently, for women's team who win in 237 00:11:23,640 --> 00:11:25,959 Speaker 3: the first round, the financial Award is eight hundred and 238 00:11:26,000 --> 00:11:29,000 Speaker 3: fifty pounds compared to men's team at the same stage, 239 00:11:29,040 --> 00:11:33,960 Speaker 3: who collect twenty two thousand pounds. In twenty twenty one, 240 00:11:34,000 --> 00:11:37,640 Speaker 3: Women's Facup winners, Chelsea were awarded just twenty five thousand 241 00:11:37,640 --> 00:11:40,800 Speaker 3: pounds for their victory of Arsenal at Wembley. Meanwhile, Leicester 242 00:11:40,880 --> 00:11:44,360 Speaker 3: City's men were given one point eight million pounds after 243 00:11:44,400 --> 00:11:45,640 Speaker 3: beating Chelsea's men's side. 244 00:11:46,880 --> 00:11:48,600 Speaker 4: That's not even close. 245 00:11:49,559 --> 00:11:51,800 Speaker 3: The pay gap motivated group of passionate football fans to 246 00:11:51,800 --> 00:11:54,920 Speaker 3: create the Women's Football Fan Collective, which aims to bring 247 00:11:55,000 --> 00:11:58,080 Speaker 3: together all fans of women's soccer in England to promote 248 00:11:58,120 --> 00:11:59,760 Speaker 3: and protect the women's game. 249 00:12:00,200 --> 00:12:02,400 Speaker 4: Promote and protector like that love that Yeah. 250 00:12:02,640 --> 00:12:05,760 Speaker 3: The FA has stressed there would be a significant increase 251 00:12:05,920 --> 00:12:08,439 Speaker 3: moving forwards, but has not confirmed the exact amounts. 252 00:12:09,120 --> 00:12:11,360 Speaker 4: The prize pot for the entire tournament. 253 00:12:11,120 --> 00:12:13,400 Speaker 3: Is currently three hundred and nine thousand pounds and the 254 00:12:13,480 --> 00:12:16,040 Speaker 3: rumories that will rise to be on two point five 255 00:12:16,160 --> 00:12:19,880 Speaker 3: million pounds. The Women's Football Fan Collective took to Twitter 256 00:12:19,920 --> 00:12:22,520 Speaker 3: and wrote we welcome news of a historic tenfold increase 257 00:12:22,559 --> 00:12:25,120 Speaker 3: in prize money for the Women's FA Cup whilst two 258 00:12:25,160 --> 00:12:27,120 Speaker 3: point five million pounds is still some way from the 259 00:12:27,160 --> 00:12:29,800 Speaker 3: equal prize money for which we are campaigning. We appreciate 260 00:12:29,880 --> 00:12:31,680 Speaker 3: this is an important step in that journey. 261 00:12:33,000 --> 00:12:37,520 Speaker 1: In swimming, last week, mel Tantrum made history when she 262 00:12:37,679 --> 00:12:41,120 Speaker 1: became Swimming Australia's head coach of the Dolphins open water team. 263 00:12:41,520 --> 00:12:44,160 Speaker 1: It is the first time a female has taken charge 264 00:12:44,160 --> 00:12:48,440 Speaker 1: of a senior national squad. It's really quite surprising to 265 00:12:48,480 --> 00:12:51,559 Speaker 1: read that, isn't it? And is this significant milestone for 266 00:12:51,600 --> 00:12:53,760 Speaker 1: a sport that has grappled with not only the treatment 267 00:12:53,840 --> 00:12:56,880 Speaker 1: of female athletes but the absence of women coaches at 268 00:12:56,920 --> 00:13:00,560 Speaker 1: an elite level. A recent independent report, which has been 269 00:13:00,600 --> 00:13:03,520 Speaker 1: sparked by the allegations of abuse and misogyny by twenty 270 00:13:03,520 --> 00:13:08,040 Speaker 1: sixteen Olympian Maddie Groves, contained a recommendation that a quota 271 00:13:08,080 --> 00:13:11,320 Speaker 1: system for female coaches be adopted to ensure Swimming Australia 272 00:13:11,679 --> 00:13:15,640 Speaker 1: never again selected an all male team. Tangram will be 273 00:13:15,720 --> 00:13:18,040 Speaker 1: joined in the four person team by two males and 274 00:13:18,120 --> 00:13:21,680 Speaker 1: Janelle Pallister, who coaches alongside Michael Bowl on the Gold Coast. 275 00:13:22,120 --> 00:13:24,680 Speaker 1: Tantrum and Pallister were quick to note they deserve it 276 00:13:24,679 --> 00:13:28,199 Speaker 1: on merit, not just gender like all the leading or 277 00:13:28,240 --> 00:13:32,280 Speaker 1: aspiring female coaches in Australian swimming. They seek recognition, not 278 00:13:32,400 --> 00:13:37,320 Speaker 1: just representation. Tantrum spoke after being appointed to her own story, 279 00:13:37,400 --> 00:13:39,480 Speaker 1: saying I can only talk about my journey, but I 280 00:13:39,520 --> 00:13:41,319 Speaker 1: have a long career of experience and I bring a 281 00:13:41,360 --> 00:13:42,080 Speaker 1: lot of things. 282 00:13:41,840 --> 00:13:42,480 Speaker 2: To the table. 283 00:13:42,840 --> 00:13:45,520 Speaker 1: If I'm the first female head coach, that might pave 284 00:13:45,600 --> 00:13:49,000 Speaker 1: the way for others in the sport. The independent panel 285 00:13:49,040 --> 00:13:52,680 Speaker 1: handed down forty six recommendations and identified issues that affect 286 00:13:52,800 --> 00:13:56,200 Speaker 1: athlete experiences and well being at all levels of the sport, 287 00:13:56,679 --> 00:14:00,160 Speaker 1: including a fear and pressure to perform, speaking out and 288 00:14:00,240 --> 00:14:05,400 Speaker 1: more broadly, control and the coaching culture. Swimming Australia apologize 289 00:14:05,400 --> 00:14:08,080 Speaker 1: to athletes that have had a negative experience and released 290 00:14:08,080 --> 00:14:12,760 Speaker 1: a statement saying Swimming Australia unreservedly apologizes to those members 291 00:14:12,800 --> 00:14:15,239 Speaker 1: of the swimming community who have had a negative experience. 292 00:14:15,880 --> 00:14:18,680 Speaker 1: The comprehensive six month review involved more than one hundred 293 00:14:18,679 --> 00:14:22,320 Speaker 1: and fifty participants, spanning former and current athletes, parents, coaches, 294 00:14:22,800 --> 00:14:27,880 Speaker 1: technical officials, volunteers and administrators. There's still a strong male 295 00:14:27,920 --> 00:14:30,800 Speaker 1: dominance in the ellegue coaching hubs across the country and 296 00:14:30,960 --> 00:14:33,360 Speaker 1: nearly all of the top Australian swimmers are part of 297 00:14:33,360 --> 00:14:37,040 Speaker 1: a hub that's overseen by a male coach. Pallistin noted 298 00:14:37,240 --> 00:14:39,880 Speaker 1: this when speaking to why the national team coaches would 299 00:14:39,920 --> 00:14:42,760 Speaker 1: predominantly male. She said, if you look at the way 300 00:14:42,800 --> 00:14:44,560 Speaker 1: it is set up, there are hubs around the country, 301 00:14:44,600 --> 00:14:47,280 Speaker 1: they are all male head coaches. When a swimmer moves 302 00:14:47,280 --> 00:14:50,240 Speaker 1: from a junior program to a hub or high performance program, 303 00:14:50,320 --> 00:14:55,680 Speaker 1: that's where they move. The females aren't getting that opportunity. 304 00:14:55,720 --> 00:14:58,040 Speaker 1: They aren't able to get those talented juniors because they 305 00:14:58,080 --> 00:15:00,000 Speaker 1: aren't in charge of any of those programs. 306 00:15:01,400 --> 00:15:05,200 Speaker 4: Interesting. I actually read a little bit more about this about. 307 00:15:04,960 --> 00:15:09,960 Speaker 3: This topic and so many it's a weird concept where 308 00:15:10,120 --> 00:15:11,800 Speaker 3: the head coach of the program ends up on the 309 00:15:11,880 --> 00:15:16,520 Speaker 3: national team, but oftentimes they're supported by numerous female coaches. 310 00:15:16,640 --> 00:15:19,200 Speaker 3: So you know, there's a head coach and there's all 311 00:15:19,200 --> 00:15:22,880 Speaker 3: the assistant coaches. And I think it is as Pallison said, 312 00:15:22,880 --> 00:15:26,360 Speaker 3: that it's really just a matter of a female being 313 00:15:26,520 --> 00:15:28,800 Speaker 3: appointed to one of those hubs in that head coach 314 00:15:28,880 --> 00:15:30,600 Speaker 3: role make a big difference. 315 00:15:30,680 --> 00:15:34,440 Speaker 1: You have them access to the talent. Let's take a 316 00:15:34,440 --> 00:15:36,840 Speaker 1: look at the key story. 317 00:15:38,480 --> 00:15:44,240 Speaker 3: In tennis, so Alexander Zerev behaved appallingly in his double 318 00:15:44,720 --> 00:15:46,600 Speaker 3: doubles match a couple of weeks ago the Mexican Open, 319 00:15:47,360 --> 00:15:48,600 Speaker 3: the world number three. 320 00:15:49,040 --> 00:15:52,240 Speaker 4: I was taking aback watching it. 321 00:15:52,240 --> 00:15:54,000 Speaker 2: It was quite confronting to watch. 322 00:15:54,040 --> 00:15:59,960 Speaker 3: He approached umpire Alessandro Jermani's chair repeatedly smashed his racket 323 00:16:00,080 --> 00:16:03,520 Speaker 3: against like probably what we want to say, twenty centimeters 324 00:16:03,560 --> 00:16:05,160 Speaker 3: from the bottom of his foot against. 325 00:16:05,640 --> 00:16:07,520 Speaker 1: I'm pretty sure one of them hit did He hit 326 00:16:07,560 --> 00:16:09,320 Speaker 1: his foot as well, the umpire's foot. 327 00:16:09,200 --> 00:16:11,280 Speaker 4: And gave him a spray. 328 00:16:11,440 --> 00:16:14,280 Speaker 3: I'm not sure what language was in, but verbally abused 329 00:16:14,360 --> 00:16:19,200 Speaker 3: him as well as demonstrably whacking the chair with his racket. 330 00:16:19,680 --> 00:16:23,080 Speaker 3: Smashed the racket too, so that whole thing was just 331 00:16:23,520 --> 00:16:28,240 Speaker 3: absolutely unacceptable. The incident saw the German handed an eight 332 00:16:28,280 --> 00:16:32,280 Speaker 3: week suspended ban and fined US forty thousand by the ATP. 333 00:16:33,400 --> 00:16:34,480 Speaker 4: It was a bit of a review of that. 334 00:16:34,520 --> 00:16:38,600 Speaker 3: He was then given a further fine of a suspended 335 00:16:38,680 --> 00:16:43,520 Speaker 3: US twenty five thousand dollars so forty thousand upfront suspended 336 00:16:43,520 --> 00:16:45,880 Speaker 3: twenty five plus an eight week suspended ban, so no 337 00:16:46,000 --> 00:16:51,200 Speaker 3: ban at all. The punishment has said leaves Ze free 338 00:16:51,280 --> 00:16:55,280 Speaker 3: to play having paid the fine. The fine and the 339 00:16:55,360 --> 00:16:58,120 Speaker 3: handling of the incidents tracted plenty of commentary and opinion 340 00:16:58,120 --> 00:17:01,680 Speaker 3: from the tennis world, and our greats have weighed in. 341 00:17:02,440 --> 00:17:04,840 Speaker 3: Serena Williams spoke to Scene and said that she continually 342 00:17:04,880 --> 00:17:07,119 Speaker 3: sees a double standard and believed she would have been 343 00:17:07,160 --> 00:17:10,280 Speaker 3: given a far harsher punishment had it been her. It 344 00:17:10,359 --> 00:17:12,960 Speaker 3: was absolutely a double standard. I would probably be in 345 00:17:13,080 --> 00:17:16,600 Speaker 3: jail if I did that, like literally, no joke. You 346 00:17:16,640 --> 00:17:18,760 Speaker 3: see that double standard when you see other things happening 347 00:17:18,800 --> 00:17:21,520 Speaker 3: on the tour, like wait, if I had done that, hmm. 348 00:17:22,800 --> 00:17:23,359 Speaker 4: Obviously. 349 00:17:24,840 --> 00:17:27,679 Speaker 3: Serena had an incident in the two thousand and nine 350 00:17:27,720 --> 00:17:32,720 Speaker 3: Years Open semi final playing eventual champion Kim Cleisters. Her 351 00:17:32,800 --> 00:17:34,919 Speaker 3: punishment for that, which was a verbal abuse of a 352 00:17:34,960 --> 00:17:38,680 Speaker 3: lion's person. She think she spoke about putting the ball 353 00:17:38,720 --> 00:17:42,520 Speaker 3: down their throat, but there was no physical interaction. 354 00:17:42,960 --> 00:17:46,960 Speaker 4: It was just a mouthful. She was placed on probation 355 00:17:47,119 --> 00:17:48,200 Speaker 4: for two years. 356 00:17:48,080 --> 00:17:50,280 Speaker 3: When she aimed that tirade at the line judge and 357 00:17:50,560 --> 00:17:55,400 Speaker 3: find us one hundred and seventy five thousand dollars. 358 00:17:54,920 --> 00:17:59,280 Speaker 1: It's a it's really mind blowing to compare those figures 359 00:17:59,680 --> 00:18:03,560 Speaker 1: and the suspensions I think when we look at it, 360 00:18:03,560 --> 00:18:08,639 Speaker 1: it's the verbal abuse element of Serena's part, we don't 361 00:18:08,720 --> 00:18:12,880 Speaker 1: justify that at all. But the physical he was physically 362 00:18:12,920 --> 00:18:15,359 Speaker 1: hitting the umpire's chair and almost hit him on the foot, 363 00:18:15,520 --> 00:18:20,480 Speaker 1: and it's a much lesser sentence that's suspended. I don't 364 00:18:20,560 --> 00:18:23,960 Speaker 1: understand the suspended part. What is the like, what is 365 00:18:24,000 --> 00:18:25,640 Speaker 1: the purpose of doing it? 366 00:18:25,640 --> 00:18:29,639 Speaker 3: It's effectively good behavior bond. Yeah, if you're naughty again. 367 00:18:29,840 --> 00:18:33,520 Speaker 1: Then but it's just yeah, it's I think that the 368 00:18:33,560 --> 00:18:36,600 Speaker 1: double standard comment from Serena is really. 369 00:18:36,320 --> 00:18:38,000 Speaker 4: Spot on und percent. 370 00:18:38,640 --> 00:18:41,720 Speaker 1: Chris Everitt jumped in with what Williams was saying. She said, 371 00:18:41,760 --> 00:18:44,760 Speaker 1: the punishment or that consequence to me, is too lenient. 372 00:18:45,160 --> 00:18:47,280 Speaker 1: He should have been out for months, and that's all 373 00:18:47,320 --> 00:18:49,800 Speaker 1: I'm going to say about it. She went on to 374 00:18:49,880 --> 00:18:52,119 Speaker 1: agree with Williams around the assumption that she would have 375 00:18:52,119 --> 00:18:54,679 Speaker 1: been treated differently had she acted in the same manner. 376 00:18:55,160 --> 00:18:57,280 Speaker 1: She restrained from agreen that Serena would have ended up 377 00:18:57,280 --> 00:18:59,320 Speaker 1: in jail, but did make note of her belief that 378 00:18:59,400 --> 00:19:01,479 Speaker 1: I think it is a female and male issue. I 379 00:19:01,520 --> 00:19:05,080 Speaker 1: agree with Serena there would have been stricter consequences if 380 00:19:05,119 --> 00:19:07,360 Speaker 1: she would have done it. I think the WTA would 381 00:19:07,359 --> 00:19:10,040 Speaker 1: have put stricter consequences on any woman who would have 382 00:19:10,040 --> 00:19:13,200 Speaker 1: done this. The umpire looked like he was in harm's way, 383 00:19:13,320 --> 00:19:14,480 Speaker 1: and that's serious. 384 00:19:14,640 --> 00:19:17,240 Speaker 3: I think that's the key thing for me, Like the 385 00:19:17,320 --> 00:19:19,480 Speaker 3: umpire did look like he was in harms way. 386 00:19:20,359 --> 00:19:24,800 Speaker 1: Frightening and Zverev has come out and apologized publicly and privately, 387 00:19:25,600 --> 00:19:27,520 Speaker 1: saying it was the worst moment of his life. But 388 00:19:28,880 --> 00:19:31,560 Speaker 1: I think an apology doesn't really cut it in this situation. 389 00:19:32,680 --> 00:19:34,480 Speaker 2: Let's take a look at what to watch. 390 00:19:35,640 --> 00:19:38,040 Speaker 3: Melbourne City will face the Melbourne Victory in a big 391 00:19:38,080 --> 00:19:40,000 Speaker 3: Melbourne off for the chance to play Sydney FC in 392 00:19:40,040 --> 00:19:42,720 Speaker 3: the Grand Final.

I knew that I was 410 00:20:34,880 --> 00:20:38,400 Speaker 1: winning the award jointly.
