1
00:00:00,400 --> 00:00:03,000
Speaker 1: Jam mission with Jonesy and Amanda.

2
00:00:03,200 --> 00:00:05,600
Speaker 2: Let's get on down to the Jonesy Demander Arms for

3
00:00:05,680 --> 00:00:08,760
Speaker 2: a pint of opinion and the pub test this morning.

4
00:00:09,360 --> 00:00:12,080
Speaker 2: Performing for free at events does it pass the pub

5
00:00:12,119 --> 00:00:15,680
Speaker 2: test well? The AFL has been accused of exploitation. They're

6
00:00:15,720 --> 00:00:18,480
Speaker 2: asking dancers to perform for free at the Grand Final.

7
00:00:19,160 --> 00:00:24,439
Speaker 2: They've come under fire from the arts industry because performers

8
00:00:25,360 --> 00:00:28,400
Speaker 2: have had no work this year at all, no work

9
00:00:28,440 --> 00:00:31,080
Speaker 2: at all. Every event pretty much has dropped off in here.

10
00:00:31,160 --> 00:00:34,760
Speaker 2: They are asking for dancers to perform for free. They've

11
00:00:34,800 --> 00:00:36,880
Speaker 2: asked for volunteers. The AFL has saying it will be

12
00:00:36,920 --> 00:00:41,080
Speaker 2: a once in a lifetime opportunity for them and performers

13
00:00:41,120 --> 00:00:44,920
Speaker 2: will be able to share their experiences on social media platform.

14
00:00:45,120 --> 00:00:48,800
Speaker 2: How wonderful. I saw a TikTok from a girl yesterday.

15
00:00:49,440 --> 00:00:51,680
Speaker 2: She's a dancer and she had a great take on this.

16
00:00:52,000 --> 00:00:55,360
Speaker 3: I've been dancing for a few years, trained since I

17
00:00:55,400 --> 00:00:59,080
Speaker 3: was quite young, but things really changed to me after

18
00:00:59,160 --> 00:01:03,840
Speaker 3: I danced AFL Grand Final for free. It's amazing what

19
00:01:03,880 --> 00:01:06,560
Speaker 3: the exposure has done for my life, and it's changed

20
00:01:06,600 --> 00:01:09,320
Speaker 3: it forever. I actually danced at the AFL Grand Finals,

21
00:01:09,319 --> 00:01:13,360
Speaker 3: so can I grab that just for free? I mean, yes,

22
00:01:13,440 --> 00:01:15,360
Speaker 3: I didn't get paid, but so what.

23
00:01:15,959 --> 00:01:17,000
Speaker 1: That's twenty two dollars?

24
00:01:17,120 --> 00:01:19,479
Speaker 3: Okay, I actually dance at the AFL Grand Finals.

25
00:01:19,480 --> 00:01:21,880
Speaker 2: So oh it's free that I'll actually dance.

26
00:01:21,720 --> 00:01:25,880
Speaker 3: At the AFL Grand Final. Very yeah, and that's the trick.

27
00:01:26,520 --> 00:01:29,520
Speaker 2: What is the next grind Final? It's interesting though some

28
00:01:29,520 --> 00:01:31,520
Speaker 2: people are saying get over it. Most young people would

29
00:01:31,560 --> 00:01:33,279
Speaker 2: jump at the chance to perform on a big stage

30
00:01:33,319 --> 00:01:35,640
Speaker 2: on a big day. This is an interesting one. Someone

31
00:01:35,640 --> 00:01:38,320
Speaker 2: has said the AFL has spent millions housing the players,

32
00:01:38,319 --> 00:01:42,119
Speaker 2: their families, their girlfriends, kids, swimming coaches, et cetera. Then

33
00:01:42,160 --> 00:01:44,880
Speaker 2: they expect to not pay the public who are working

34
00:01:44,880 --> 00:01:48,560
Speaker 2: to support them. So what do you think performing for

35
00:01:48,640 --> 00:01:52,120
Speaker 2: free at events? Does it pass a pub test?

36
00:01:52,760 --> 00:01:54,800
Speaker 1: No? I don't think it passes the pub test. So

37
00:01:54,840 --> 00:01:56,840
Speaker 1: I think that if you're going to perform for it,

38
00:01:56,880 --> 00:01:59,600
Speaker 1: particularly for the AFL or any of the NRL, I

39
00:01:59,600 --> 00:02:02,120
Speaker 1: think they get plenty of money. I think they should

40
00:02:02,160 --> 00:02:05,120
Speaker 1: be paid, particularly at this time. You know, with the

41
00:02:05,200 --> 00:02:08,400
Speaker 1: COVID there's so many artists not being paid and not

42
00:02:08,480 --> 00:02:11,720
Speaker 1: getting any money. They definitely should be paid. Absolutely, it

43
00:02:11,760 --> 00:02:14,160
Speaker 1: does as long as everyone else on ground is being

44
00:02:14,160 --> 00:02:18,440
Speaker 1: paid in exposure to all the players, coaches, staff, everyone.

45
00:02:18,760 --> 00:02:21,760
Speaker 1: I'm just wondering whether they'll live boys too and then

46
00:02:21,800 --> 00:02:23,840
Speaker 1: also get out there and durance. You know, why not

47
00:02:23,880 --> 00:02:25,480
Speaker 1: give it a shot. You never know what might just

48
00:02:25,520 --> 00:02:26,480
Speaker 1: come from it.

49
00:02:27,200 --> 00:02:29,840
Speaker 2: Probably pretty much off topic there, but yeah, I never

50
00:02:29,880 --> 00:02:30,680
Speaker 2: said it was just women.

51
00:02:30,760 --> 00:02:34,119
Speaker 1: Absolutely shot with joon Z and Amanda
