I can I really believe that. 223 00:10:10,000 --> 00:10:12,880 Speaker 2: There's been some really like if you think Barcelona has 224 00:10:13,200 --> 00:10:16,160 Speaker 2: had a mortgage, well that's actually wrong. Leon have had 225 00:10:16,160 --> 00:10:20,120 Speaker 2: a mortgage on that competition. Yeah, very true, Barcelona, Yeah okay, 226 00:10:20,160 --> 00:10:22,120 Speaker 2: and then he Chelsea have snuck in a few times. 227 00:10:22,520 --> 00:10:25,480 Speaker 1: Chelsea have probably taken Arsenal's place a few times. 228 00:10:25,240 --> 00:10:29,920 Speaker 2: Yes, definitely, Yeah, not this time, unfortunately.

Eight on aggregate. 230 00:10:33,520 --> 00:10:36,120 Speaker 1: That's not a nice aggregate at all, is it. I 231 00:10:36,200 --> 00:10:37,520 Speaker 1: was going to say, we won't talk about it, but 232 00:10:37,600 --> 00:10:38,559 Speaker 1: you talked about it anyway. 233 00:10:38,559 --> 00:10:40,360 Speaker 2: Other people need to know. And you know, sometimes I 234 00:10:40,440 --> 00:10:44,199 Speaker 2: lose and that's okay, right, betimes the blue team doesn't win. 235 00:10:45,360 --> 00:10:47,040 Speaker 1: Nice way to bring it back by sitting to the 236 00:10:47,080 --> 00:10:52,040 Speaker 1: origin watch partty, okay, focus, This is how our friendship goes, 237 00:10:52,080 --> 00:10:52,400 Speaker 1: isn't it? 238 00:10:52,440 --> 00:10:53,040 Speaker 2: Pretty much? 239 00:10:54,320 --> 00:10:55,839 Speaker 1: Arsenal went back to Arsenal right. 240 00:10:55,880 --> 00:10:56,440 Speaker 2: The red team. 241 00:10:56,679 --> 00:10:59,240 Speaker 1: They had a remarkable fight back from two one down 242 00:10:59,280 --> 00:11:02,319 Speaker 1: in the first leg beat Leon five to two on aggregate. 243 00:11:02,600 --> 00:11:04,640 Speaker 1: Leon got off to the worst possible start when a 244 00:11:04,679 --> 00:11:08,679 Speaker 1: mix up between Christian Endler and Leon stalwart defender Wendy 245 00:11:08,720 --> 00:11:12,160 Speaker 1: Renard resulted in the ball pinging off the goalkeeper's back 246 00:11:12,840 --> 00:11:15,400 Speaker 1: and into the back of the net from a corner. 247 00:11:16,320 --> 00:11:17,080 Speaker 2: Heartbreaking. 248 00:11:17,880 --> 00:11:19,079 Speaker 1: That's uncomfortable. 249 00:11:19,480 --> 00:11:23,880 Speaker 2: It's really heartbreaking when you just it's a genuine stupid 250 00:11:23,880 --> 00:11:25,200 Speaker 2: mistake and it results in a goal. 251 00:11:25,320 --> 00:11:29,720 Speaker 1: Oh that especially for such high stakes. Right. Mariona cal 252 00:11:30,000 --> 00:11:32,400 Speaker 1: Denti then gave Arsenal the lead in a tie when 253 00:11:32,440 --> 00:11:35,440 Speaker 1: she struck beautifully into the top corner from twenty yards out. 254 00:11:35,600 --> 00:11:38,920 Speaker 1: It seemed inevitable that European giants Leon would come back 255 00:11:38,960 --> 00:11:41,600 Speaker 1: into it in the second half after what was undoubtedly 256 00:11:41,679 --> 00:11:45,479 Speaker 1: a stern team talk from former Arsenal boss Joe Montemora, 257 00:11:45,880 --> 00:11:49,400 Speaker 1: who cut a frustrated figure on the touch line, but 258 00:11:49,679 --> 00:11:52,280 Speaker 1: Alessia Russo took advantage of a loose ball and slotted 259 00:11:52,320 --> 00:11:54,840 Speaker 1: in the bottom corner after Leon made a mess of 260 00:11:54,840 --> 00:11:57,000 Speaker 1: trying to clear it. Inside the first minute of the 261 00:11:57,040 --> 00:12:00,440 Speaker 1: second half.

Melchie de Mornay rifled in at near posts 267 00:12:16,760 --> 00:12:18,400 Speaker 1: in the eighty first minute, but it proved too little, 268 00:12:18,440 --> 00:12:20,319 Speaker 1: too late for the home side, as Arsenal progressed to 269 00:12:20,360 --> 00:12:23,199 Speaker 1: the show piece on the twenty fourth of May in Lisbon. 270 00:12:25,120 --> 00:12:29,160 Speaker 2: So good, that will be an epic between Arsenal and Barcelona. 271 00:12:29,200 --> 00:12:32,880 Speaker 2: As I said, who absolutely destroyed my blues.

Are we talking super We're talking Super W guy. 347 00:15:50,240 --> 00:15:51,960 Speaker 1: I can't really it feels like a lifetime ago that 348 00:15:52,000 --> 00:15:53,880 Speaker 1: you guys want. I can't believe we haven't talked about it. 349 00:15:53,880 --> 00:15:55,480 Speaker 2: It was funny. I was on the drive over here. 350 00:15:55,520 --> 00:15:57,240 Speaker 2: I was thinking to myself, oh, we haven't spoken about 351 00:15:57,240 --> 00:15:59,960 Speaker 2: Super W Grand Final, and I was like, obviously, well 352 00:16:00,040 --> 00:16:01,240 Speaker 2: my T shirt. But I was on the way of 353 00:16:01,360 --> 00:16:04,040 Speaker 2: thinking what was the score? I was like so full 354 00:16:04,040 --> 00:16:06,040 Speaker 2: of written it down isn't it funny you don't remember 355 00:16:06,080 --> 00:16:08,680 Speaker 2: this well, I don't. I often don't remember the score 356 00:16:08,720 --> 00:16:12,440 Speaker 2: of the game. Forty three yep, they were twenty one. 357 00:16:12,600 --> 00:16:15,960 Speaker 1: Oh, I was gonna say Twitter, sorry, so. 358 00:16:16,000 --> 00:16:18,760 Speaker 2: Yes, mine new stuff. I was Worritor has defeated an 359 00:16:18,800 --> 00:16:22,480 Speaker 2: impressive Queensland Red's forty three twenty one. Good yep the score. 360 00:16:22,760 --> 00:16:24,360 Speaker 2: You know, it's an old cliche, but the score probably 361 00:16:24,360 --> 00:16:29,520 Speaker 2: wasn't reflective of the battle the Red's put up. But 362 00:16:29,560 --> 00:16:31,920 Speaker 2: I think it was reflective of our quality. Daisy Miller 363 00:16:32,280 --> 00:16:38,000 Speaker 2: huge player of the match, just so hard to tackle. 364 00:16:38,680 --> 00:16:40,840 Speaker 1: Sorry, I'm not shaking my head at what you're saying. 365 00:16:40,920 --> 00:16:43,160 Speaker 1: I just got another text from the trumpet of patriots 366 00:16:43,320 --> 00:16:46,680 Speaker 1: take your super any time, cut immigration by eighty percent, 367 00:16:47,560 --> 00:16:49,960 Speaker 1: and some other things on there. Stop texting me. 368 00:16:49,960 --> 00:16:53,720 Speaker 2: Clive, You've got to how do you opt out of that? 369 00:16:53,840 --> 00:16:55,160 Speaker 1: I don't know, there's no opt out. 370 00:16:55,320 --> 00:16:56,880 Speaker 2: I'm so glad I'm not getting them because I'm of 371 00:16:56,960 --> 00:17:02,120 Speaker 2: They obviously don't have a Canada In this scene. 372 00:17:01,840 --> 00:17:04,080 Speaker 1: JSI Miller, does he talk about something better? 373 00:17:04,280 --> 00:17:10,879 Speaker 2: Desi Miller amazing? So she was absolutely everywhere all of 374 00:17:10,920 --> 00:17:14,840 Speaker 2: the park. But look, you know, rugby is a fifteen 375 00:17:14,840 --> 00:17:17,080 Speaker 2: person game, Well it's a twenty three person game. She 376 00:17:17,200 --> 00:17:20,560 Speaker 2: perfectly honest, but DESI kind of benefits from us winning 377 00:17:20,600 --> 00:17:24,640 Speaker 2: the battle. At the breakdown, former war retar Eva Capani 378 00:17:24,800 --> 00:17:26,680 Speaker 2: got the reds on the board with a barge over 379 00:17:26,680 --> 00:17:29,679 Speaker 2: the line from close. Happy for Eva to score, not 380 00:17:29,720 --> 00:17:32,760 Speaker 2: happy for her to win. So that's fine, Love you Eva. 381 00:17:32,840 --> 00:17:35,439 Speaker 2: But it was the wartar's first half as Capanei's opposite 382 00:17:35,480 --> 00:17:38,680 Speaker 2: number for Leicky Poheaver crashed over for a nineteen seven 383 00:17:38,720 --> 00:17:41,800 Speaker 2: lead at the bak. Blicky's been immense for us this year. 384 00:17:41,840 --> 00:17:45,479 Speaker 2: She really stepped into Eva's shoes. They both had very 385 00:17:45,520 --> 00:17:49,240 Speaker 2: large feats, so they probably could share boots and really 386 00:17:49,240 --> 00:17:52,359 Speaker 2: did a job for us in that physicality piece. Lane Morgan, 387 00:17:52,400 --> 00:17:56,280 Speaker 2: another former tar, she sparked the reds. She was really 388 00:17:56,280 --> 00:17:58,680 Speaker 2: good for them again, quick taps, just playing the way 389 00:17:58,720 --> 00:18:03,080 Speaker 2: Lane does. She scored and it was pretty close, son 390 00:18:03,119 --> 00:18:03,560 Speaker 2: Enny Killer. 391 00:18:04,280 --> 00:18:06,280 Speaker 1: I would like to say, I love you Lane, but 392 00:18:06,400 --> 00:18:07,879 Speaker 1: she did not tap the ball. The ball did not 393 00:18:07,920 --> 00:18:08,680 Speaker 1: move when she tapped it. 394 00:18:08,800 --> 00:18:12,120 Speaker 2: I told yeah, did not release did not release the ball. 395 00:18:12,480 --> 00:18:14,760 Speaker 2: They were down to fourteen and it was getting I 396 00:18:14,800 --> 00:18:17,480 Speaker 2: think they were when we had a player sent to SimBin. 397 00:18:17,640 --> 00:18:21,560 Speaker 2: We were within They were within Bible seven pretty tight. 398 00:18:22,359 --> 00:18:23,000 Speaker 1: It was close. 399 00:18:23,240 --> 00:18:25,760 Speaker 2: But the reality is, and it's something that we spoke 400 00:18:25,800 --> 00:18:30,280 Speaker 2: about that you know, to keep it, make it kind 401 00:18:30,280 --> 00:18:32,520 Speaker 2: of basic. Winners win, and that group of players know 402 00:18:32,560 --> 00:18:35,240 Speaker 2: how to win. They were never panicked. They always knew 403 00:18:35,240 --> 00:18:37,280 Speaker 2: that if they played their best footy, they were good enough. 404 00:18:38,240 --> 00:18:41,000 Speaker 2: One special try that we do have to mention was 405 00:18:41,040 --> 00:18:44,280 Speaker 2: our mate Emily Robinson. 406 00:18:44,240 --> 00:18:45,960 Speaker 1: Aka the Horse from It. 407 00:18:46,240 --> 00:18:50,200 Speaker 2: She scored with twelve minutes left to really seal a deal. 408 00:18:50,880 --> 00:18:54,359 Speaker 2: She ran it inside line. She tells a story that 409 00:18:54,520 --> 00:18:58,040 Speaker 2: when Caitlin holds the kid made the initial break and 410 00:18:58,080 --> 00:19:00,479 Speaker 2: she could hear horse screaming for it on her end side, 411 00:19:00,720 --> 00:19:02,359 Speaker 2: she kind of looked around, like, there's got to be 412 00:19:02,400 --> 00:19:03,880 Speaker 2: somewhere else I can pass this too. 413 00:19:04,200 --> 00:19:07,720 Speaker 1: Because for context, props and usually score a lot of 414 00:19:07,760 --> 00:19:09,240 Speaker 1: tries unless you're Eva Kahani. 415 00:19:09,280 --> 00:19:11,040 Speaker 2: Probably, yeah, she was about twelve out. You had a 416 00:19:11,080 --> 00:19:12,159 Speaker 2: little bit of work to do. 417 00:19:12,280 --> 00:19:14,200 Speaker 1: When I saw her post game, she reckoned. She was 418 00:19:14,240 --> 00:19:15,840 Speaker 1: seventy meters out from the try line. 419 00:19:15,880 --> 00:19:19,200 Speaker 2: Seventy meters she reckons. But yeah, so it was obviously 420 00:19:19,240 --> 00:19:22,960 Speaker 2: an amazing, amazing day, great for us to win back 421 00:19:22,960 --> 00:19:28,040 Speaker 2: to back and yeah, I was incredibly pleased for the group. 422 00:19:28,280 --> 00:19:30,280 Speaker 1: It was awesome. And then you guys headed over for 423 00:19:30,320 --> 00:19:33,080 Speaker 1: the first ever Super Rugby Champions Final over in Auckland. 424 00:19:33,440 --> 00:19:37,679 Speaker 1: There was a cyclone happening. The weather conditions looked insane. 425 00:19:37,960 --> 00:19:39,760 Speaker 1: Maybe I don't know if we need to go play 426 00:19:39,760 --> 00:19:41,359 Speaker 1: by play of the game because it probably wasn't the 427 00:19:41,359 --> 00:19:43,520 Speaker 1: result you wanted. But just overall, what do you think 428 00:19:43,520 --> 00:19:44,880 Speaker 1: that meant for both competitions? 429 00:19:45,040 --> 00:19:47,399 Speaker 2: Yes, super important. It's definitely something that we want to 430 00:19:47,400 --> 00:19:50,160 Speaker 2: build and we obviously want to extend the competition. I've 431 00:19:50,160 --> 00:19:53,040 Speaker 2: spoken multiple times about how Super Women's was way too 432 00:19:53,040 --> 00:19:56,240 Speaker 2: short this year. We need more footy at that level. 433 00:19:56,880 --> 00:20:01,600 Speaker 2: The Aulkham Blues the Champions game. The Champions Final was 434 00:20:01,640 --> 00:20:03,960 Speaker 2: played on the Thursday. We both played our grand finals 435 00:20:04,080 --> 00:20:08,560 Speaker 2: respectively on the Saturday. We trained. Monday night, we got 436 00:20:09,240 --> 00:20:12,719 Speaker 2: on a we got we met at tars HQ at 437 00:20:12,720 --> 00:20:14,320 Speaker 2: four thirty in the morning on Tuesday morning for a 438 00:20:14,359 --> 00:20:15,280 Speaker 2: seven am flight. 439 00:20:15,400 --> 00:20:16,600 Speaker 1: That's so brutal. 440 00:20:16,960 --> 00:20:20,119 Speaker 2: We traveled and granted, you know, Auckland's not ridiculously too 441 00:20:20,160 --> 00:20:23,359 Speaker 2: far away, but it was just a really big week 442 00:20:23,720 --> 00:20:28,359 Speaker 2: and not making excuses but to make that Championship final 443 00:20:28,680 --> 00:20:31,080 Speaker 2: as good as it could be. We probably need to 444 00:20:31,080 --> 00:20:33,880 Speaker 2: look at scheduling a bit better, for sure. I mean 445 00:20:33,880 --> 00:20:35,840 Speaker 2: both teams were the same. We obviously had the travel 446 00:20:35,840 --> 00:20:38,359 Speaker 2: throwing in that they didn't, but yeah, and then just 447 00:20:38,400 --> 00:20:41,719 Speaker 2: to top it off, cyclone tam was in full effect 448 00:20:41,720 --> 00:20:44,199 Speaker 2: in Auckland and that were some of the worst conditions 449 00:20:44,200 --> 00:20:46,520 Speaker 2: I've ever seen. They played way better than us. We 450 00:20:46,520 --> 00:20:48,800 Speaker 2: needed to control territory in those conditions and we didn't. 451 00:20:49,720 --> 00:20:52,719 Speaker 2: And they're equality side, so we did go down, but 452 00:20:53,000 --> 00:20:54,200 Speaker 2: we'll get them next time. I reckon. 453 00:20:54,520 --> 00:20:57,840 Speaker 1: I reckon too. Still on rugby, we're going over to 454 00:20:57,960 --> 00:21:00,040 Speaker 1: Europe for a bit of Six Nations news. England and 455 00:21:00,160 --> 00:21:04,640 Speaker 1: has claimed a thrilling forty three to forty two victory 456 00:21:04,760 --> 00:21:08,200 Speaker 1: over France to complete their fourth successive Grand Slam in 457 00:21:08,240 --> 00:21:09,400 Speaker 1: the women's Six Nations. 458 00:21:09,600 --> 00:21:14,000 Speaker 2: So I'm no French rugby fan for a number of reasons. 459 00:21:14,400 --> 00:21:16,240 Speaker 1: We're on a similar page here, but. 460 00:21:16,200 --> 00:21:19,720 Speaker 2: I always found myself watching this game kind of supporting them. 461 00:21:19,760 --> 00:21:21,680 Speaker 2: There's been a lot of chat coming out of the 462 00:21:21,800 --> 00:21:25,359 Speaker 2: UK out of England, not from the players themselves, but 463 00:21:25,400 --> 00:21:27,840 Speaker 2: from pundits saying that the Six Nations need a revamp. 464 00:21:28,040 --> 00:21:30,840 Speaker 2: England has no competition. Oh yeah, we're too good for 465 00:21:30,880 --> 00:21:35,320 Speaker 2: this competition. YadA, YadA, YadA. Now again that's not the 466 00:21:35,359 --> 00:21:40,200 Speaker 2: playing group, that's you know, your commentary, which is fine. 467 00:21:40,400 --> 00:21:42,960 Speaker 2: I'm happy for people to talk about it. And they 468 00:21:43,000 --> 00:21:45,160 Speaker 2: did start to run away with it. The gap got 469 00:21:45,200 --> 00:21:48,120 Speaker 2: to about twenty points at one point the French came 470 00:21:48,160 --> 00:21:50,080 Speaker 2: back and like I said, I found myself secretly cheering 471 00:21:50,080 --> 00:21:51,560 Speaker 2: for them, and Kirsty was like, are you going for 472 00:21:51,560 --> 00:21:55,639 Speaker 2: the French? I was like, no question, Mark, are you okay? Yeah? Anyway, 473 00:21:55,640 --> 00:22:00,680 Speaker 2: it was an amazing game. The French scored with ninety 474 00:22:00,720 --> 00:22:02,719 Speaker 2: seconds on the clock. It took the conversion to make 475 00:22:02,760 --> 00:22:03,520 Speaker 2: it within one point. 476 00:22:03,640 --> 00:22:07,320 Speaker 1: Great kicker slotted two conversions late under pressure. 477 00:22:07,359 --> 00:22:11,359 Speaker 2: The French fullback can kick. England kickoff and there was 478 00:22:11,359 --> 00:22:13,760 Speaker 2: a mix up on the on taking the kick. It 479 00:22:13,800 --> 00:22:16,040 Speaker 2: was just the most it was at Twickenham. I'm not 480 00:22:16,080 --> 00:22:18,720 Speaker 2: sure of the exact crowd numbers, but it was big. 481 00:22:19,080 --> 00:22:21,920 Speaker 2: It was a beautiful English sunny day, which is bizarre, 482 00:22:22,520 --> 00:22:24,679 Speaker 2: and it was just it was really to finish the 483 00:22:24,680 --> 00:22:28,399 Speaker 2: Six Nations deserved and it was you know, obviously whoever 484 00:22:28,440 --> 00:22:31,879 Speaker 2: one would win the Six Nations title it was just 485 00:22:31,920 --> 00:22:33,400 Speaker 2: sad to see it end in that way. But yeah, 486 00:22:33,440 --> 00:22:36,280 Speaker 2: I think for me watching that game, I'm so excited 487 00:22:36,320 --> 00:22:39,119 Speaker 2: for the walk up this year to be It's going 488 00:22:39,200 --> 00:22:41,840 Speaker 2: to be amazing and it will be England playing at Twickenham. 489 00:22:42,280 --> 00:22:44,840 Speaker 2: I'm predicting it will be England playing in that final 490 00:22:44,840 --> 00:22:46,600 Speaker 2: Twickenham in front of us sold out Twickenham. 491 00:22:46,760 --> 00:22:47,600 Speaker 1: Oh, it'd be huge. 492 00:22:47,640 --> 00:22:49,240 Speaker 2: I'm going to be there. It's not too late. You 493 00:22:49,240 --> 00:22:49,639 Speaker 2: should buy. 494 00:22:51,440 --> 00:22:54,120 Speaker 1: You need to make it happen. You can hold bread 495 00:22:54,200 --> 00:22:54,840 Speaker 1: on the plane. 496 00:22:55,960 --> 00:22:58,399 Speaker 2: No, we're going for the whole six weeks. Because if 497 00:22:58,440 --> 00:23:00,000 Speaker 2: you're going to be allowed to go for six weeks, 498 00:23:00,359 --> 00:23:02,560 Speaker 2: allowed by ho mean I would love to hold him 499 00:23:02,560 --> 00:23:03,760 Speaker 2: on the plan for twenty four hours? 500 00:23:04,040 --> 00:23:05,040 Speaker 1: Would you a gang? 501 00:23:05,280 --> 00:23:07,439 Speaker 2: Lock it in? Let me? He doesn't put avocado all 502 00:23:07,480 --> 00:23:07,840 Speaker 2: over me. 503 00:23:09,119 --> 00:23:12,080 Speaker 1: He started solids and I had a slight missap on 504 00:23:12,160 --> 00:23:14,960 Speaker 1: my hoodie and his knit. It went absolutely everyone, but 505 00:23:15,000 --> 00:23:20,520 Speaker 1: he loved the avocado yuck. In some swimming news, the 506 00:23:20,560 --> 00:23:23,720 Speaker 1: Aussie women have continued their Paris twenty twenty four domination 507 00:23:23,880 --> 00:23:27,600 Speaker 1: in the pool at this year's Australian Open Swimming Championships. 508 00:23:28,000 --> 00:23:30,359 Speaker 1: The first world record of the event came from none 509 00:23:30,480 --> 00:23:33,880 Speaker 1: other than Alexa Leary. The twenty three year old smashed 510 00:23:33,960 --> 00:23:36,480 Speaker 1: out a fifty nine point two to two to better 511 00:23:36,560 --> 00:23:39,320 Speaker 1: her old mark a fifty nine point five to three 512 00:23:39,640 --> 00:23:41,720 Speaker 1: from her gold medal swim in Paris in the women's 513 00:23:41,720 --> 00:23:44,800 Speaker 1: one hundred meter freestyle S nine. When told of her 514 00:23:44,880 --> 00:23:48,679 Speaker 1: record swim, Leary said, did I actually break the world record? 515 00:23:49,160 --> 00:23:50,880 Speaker 2: She's the best, She's outrageous. I love her. 516 00:23:51,119 --> 00:23:53,359 Speaker 1: Later in the week, Lary added another national title, the 517 00:23:53,359 --> 00:23:57,560 Speaker 1: women's fifty meter freestyle multi class. Meanwhile, Mollio Callahan won 518 00:23:57,600 --> 00:24:00,200 Speaker 1: both the women's two hundred meters and one hundred to 519 00:24:00,200 --> 00:24:03,600 Speaker 1: free style events, and Kaylee McEwan continued where she'd left 520 00:24:03,600 --> 00:24:06,119 Speaker 1: off in Paris, sweeping the backstroke sprint events to win 521 00:24:06,200 --> 00:24:08,960 Speaker 1: gold in the fifty meters backstroke in twenty seven point 522 00:24:09,000 --> 00:24:09,440 Speaker 1: two to two. 523 00:24:10,200 --> 00:24:11,520 Speaker 2: We are good in the pool. 524 00:24:12,480 --> 00:24:14,320 Speaker 1: Let's take a look. Got the key story. 525 00:24:15,480 --> 00:24:19,280 Speaker 2: So the minimum wage for the WNBL players will more 526 00:24:19,400 --> 00:24:21,680 Speaker 2: than double in the coming years under a new four 527 00:24:21,760 --> 00:24:25,719 Speaker 2: year collective Bargaining Agreement or CBA, which was announced this week. 528 00:24:26,200 --> 00:24:29,399 Speaker 2: The current minimum wage for a WNBL player is pretty 529 00:24:29,440 --> 00:24:32,560 Speaker 2: ordinary at twenty three thousand dollars. That will increase to 530 00:24:32,720 --> 00:24:35,119 Speaker 2: forty six nine hundred and fifty two. Let's call it 531 00:24:35,160 --> 00:24:39,000 Speaker 2: forty seven thousand by the twenty twenty eight twenty twenty 532 00:24:39,080 --> 00:24:42,960 Speaker 2: nine season, which will equal the NBL's minimum wage pro 533 00:24:43,080 --> 00:24:46,120 Speaker 2: rata rate. Now, assuming that's saying parata because they play 534 00:24:46,119 --> 00:24:47,120 Speaker 2: a longer season. 535 00:24:47,000 --> 00:24:49,040 Speaker 1: Yeah, I think it's pro rata just on timing. 536 00:24:49,119 --> 00:24:52,159 Speaker 2: Yeah, that makes sense. So the move's been labeled the 537 00:24:52,200 --> 00:24:56,399 Speaker 2: biggest single equity leap forward in WNBL history by Straining 538 00:24:56,560 --> 00:25:01,280 Speaker 2: Basketball Players Association boss at Jacob Holmes. 539 00:25:00,119 --> 00:25:02,879 Speaker 1: For your CBA. So when we say CBA collected bargain agreement, 540 00:25:02,880 --> 00:25:06,680 Speaker 1: as bed said, the players Association and the league meet 541 00:25:06,880 --> 00:25:13,520 Speaker 1: to discuss conditions around minimum salaries, travel standards, pregnancy policies. 542 00:25:14,160 --> 00:25:15,920 Speaker 2: All the things that make the competition happen. 543 00:25:16,000 --> 00:25:19,439 Speaker 1: Yeah. Correct. So it includes an annual salary cap increase 544 00:25:19,480 --> 00:25:22,639 Speaker 1: of eight percent, with salary caps equal to seven hundred 545 00:25:22,640 --> 00:25:25,400 Speaker 1: and twenty three thousand, five hundred dollars by the end 546 00:25:25,400 --> 00:25:28,280 Speaker 1: of the term. This season's salary cap has been set 547 00:25:28,320 --> 00:25:31,120 Speaker 1: at five hundred and seventy four thousand, up from five 548 00:25:31,200 --> 00:25:34,240 Speaker 1: hundred and thirty two thousand last season. The deal also 549 00:25:34,280 --> 00:25:37,120 Speaker 1: see improvements, as we said, to a range of player conditions, 550 00:25:37,160 --> 00:25:39,800 Speaker 1: including greater investment and mental health support. We love to 551 00:25:39,880 --> 00:25:43,879 Speaker 1: see that career development, as well as contract protection insurance 552 00:25:44,000 --> 00:25:45,560 Speaker 1: payments for injured players. 553 00:25:45,840 --> 00:25:48,119 Speaker 2: Yeah, I'd love to know more about that, because it's funny. 554 00:25:48,480 --> 00:25:53,719 Speaker 2: What's not funny. It's interesting when you say other improvements 555 00:25:53,840 --> 00:25:56,679 Speaker 2: aside from just money. One of the biggest things I 556 00:25:56,720 --> 00:26:00,359 Speaker 2: think women's sport it would be amazing to have just 557 00:26:00,480 --> 00:26:02,920 Speaker 2: standard private health cover provided for every athlete. 558 00:26:03,000 --> 00:26:05,120 Speaker 1: Oh my gosh, I'm such a big advocate. I feel 559 00:26:05,160 --> 00:26:06,520 Speaker 1: like we need to say that louder. 560 00:26:06,520 --> 00:26:09,439 Speaker 2: That one like that is just something that would just 561 00:26:09,600 --> 00:26:15,159 Speaker 2: ease so much financial pressure from players and from not 562 00:26:15,200 --> 00:26:17,159 Speaker 2: necessarily the players on the big bucks, the players on 563 00:26:17,240 --> 00:26:19,560 Speaker 2: that minimum wage knowing that don't that their private health 564 00:26:19,600 --> 00:26:21,040 Speaker 2: cover is covered would be huge. 565 00:26:21,119 --> 00:26:23,600 Speaker 1: I totally agree. And so for context for people who 566 00:26:23,640 --> 00:26:25,720 Speaker 1: don't know about sport contracts, a lot of the time, 567 00:26:25,800 --> 00:26:28,639 Speaker 1: these sporting bodies will actually say that athletes need to 568 00:26:28,680 --> 00:26:31,080 Speaker 1: have not just private health insurance, but actually the cert 569 00:26:31,680 --> 00:26:33,680 Speaker 1: level of private health insurance. A lot of the time, 570 00:26:33,800 --> 00:26:35,800 Speaker 1: and what will happen is if you get an injury, 571 00:26:35,880 --> 00:26:37,520 Speaker 1: or you need to get a scan or something done, 572 00:26:37,560 --> 00:26:40,640 Speaker 1: you need to see an external health professional. It kind 573 00:26:40,640 --> 00:26:43,280 Speaker 1: of varies. Sometimes the athlete will pay claimer on their 574 00:26:43,280 --> 00:26:45,639 Speaker 1: private health and then get reimbursed by the club. Is 575 00:26:45,760 --> 00:26:48,479 Speaker 1: kind of standard practice, so they can do that claiming process. 576 00:26:48,560 --> 00:26:52,080 Speaker 2: Yes, so, yeah, so the athlete will get the treatment 577 00:26:52,520 --> 00:26:54,840 Speaker 2: claim on their private healthcare and any medicare and then 578 00:26:55,080 --> 00:26:56,440 Speaker 2: the club will often cover the gap. 579 00:26:56,720 --> 00:27:02,520 Speaker 1: Correct. Yeah, but what's so tricky? I don't know if 580 00:27:02,560 --> 00:27:05,359 Speaker 1: you have my private health insurance is so expensive. 581 00:27:05,400 --> 00:27:08,000 Speaker 2: It's so expensive. I wouldn't know Kirsty pays it. But yes, 582 00:27:08,040 --> 00:27:09,119 Speaker 2: it is so expensive. 583 00:27:11,240 --> 00:27:15,440 Speaker 1: You are not the breadwinner in your household. But I think, yeah, 584 00:27:15,720 --> 00:27:18,159 Speaker 1: to your point, the fact that you can be on 585 00:27:18,280 --> 00:27:21,200 Speaker 1: minimum wage in a sporting context, which is often lower 586 00:27:21,200 --> 00:27:23,760 Speaker 1: than a standard minimum wage, which how is incredible. But 587 00:27:23,840 --> 00:27:27,280 Speaker 1: that's a conversation for another day. It's a large chunk 588 00:27:27,320 --> 00:27:28,359 Speaker 1: of it a lot of the time. 589 00:27:28,760 --> 00:27:32,879 Speaker 2: Yeah, I think that for me obviously, we talk about 590 00:27:33,000 --> 00:27:36,240 Speaker 2: you know, it becomes the minimum wage for WMBL becoming 591 00:27:36,240 --> 00:27:39,600 Speaker 2: forty seven thousand. Reality is, if you're living in any 592 00:27:39,640 --> 00:27:42,080 Speaker 2: of the big cities, forty seven thousand is not enough 593 00:27:42,119 --> 00:27:45,920 Speaker 2: to live. You are also working a second job as well. 594 00:27:46,680 --> 00:27:49,240 Speaker 2: If not, you know, maybe multiple casual roles or whatever 595 00:27:49,240 --> 00:27:51,200 Speaker 2: it might be. But like you said, if you take 596 00:27:51,359 --> 00:27:53,400 Speaker 2: private health cover out of that forty seven thousand dollars, 597 00:27:53,440 --> 00:27:56,800 Speaker 2: you're not left with a whole lot to pay rent bills, food. 598 00:27:58,480 --> 00:28:01,760 Speaker 1: Two time WNBL champion Bet Cole told the ABC that 599 00:28:01,800 --> 00:28:04,520 Speaker 1: the increase is important because from a roster of twelve 600 00:28:04,520 --> 00:28:07,800 Speaker 1: contracted players, most teams would currently have only three to 601 00:28:07,880 --> 00:28:10,800 Speaker 1: five players with the luxury of dedicating full time hours 602 00:28:10,800 --> 00:28:16,240 Speaker 1: to basketball. The announcement from sorry the announcement after Basketball 603 00:28:16,240 --> 00:28:19,080 Speaker 1: Australia relinquished a majority stake in the league to a 604 00:28:19,160 --> 00:28:24,640 Speaker 1: consortium led by Walameye, Capitol Groups Syndicate and Larry Kesseman's NBL. 605 00:28:24,760 --> 00:28:28,919 Speaker 1: In April, WNBL chief executive Jenny Seger told media this 606 00:28:28,960 --> 00:28:32,120 Speaker 1: is more than a pay deal. It's a declaration of intent. 607 00:28:32,800 --> 00:28:35,199 Speaker 1: This is the kind of change that retains talent in 608 00:28:35,240 --> 00:28:37,480 Speaker 1: Australia and signals to every young girl picking up a 609 00:28:37,520 --> 00:28:41,120 Speaker 1: basketball that there is a future here. Love that. 610 00:28:42,000 --> 00:28:44,600 Speaker 2: Yeah, it is a declaration of intent and it needs 611 00:28:44,640 --> 00:28:48,040 Speaker 2: to be even better because like we said, this is amazing, 612 00:28:48,520 --> 00:28:52,720 Speaker 2: but still that minimum amount is pretty minimum. 613 00:28:53,040 --> 00:28:54,440 Speaker 1: You are correct. Let's take a look. 614 00:28:54,480 --> 00:29:00,800 Speaker 2: Go want to watch the women's Women's so won ooh so. 615 00:29:01,360 --> 00:29:04,640 Speaker 2: State of Origin is what that acronym stands for.
