Let's 56 00:02:29,280 --> 00:02:29,639 Speaker 1: take a. 57 00:02:29,560 --> 00:02:30,840 Speaker 2: Look around the grounds. 58 00:02:32,440 --> 00:02:37,400 Speaker 1: In rugby league. Last week, a number of NROLW players 59 00:02:37,440 --> 00:02:42,959 Speaker 1: shared a teal colored tile with captions saying players are united, 60 00:02:43,080 --> 00:02:46,000 Speaker 1: we will continue fighting for what is fair. They tagged 61 00:02:46,000 --> 00:02:50,359 Speaker 1: the Rugby League players. They said no CBA, no players. 62 00:02:50,760 --> 00:02:53,799 Speaker 1: The post is referring to the fact that CBA negotiations 63 00:02:53,840 --> 00:02:57,080 Speaker 1: have stalled and the players are not ruling out strike action. 64 00:02:57,480 --> 00:02:59,560 Speaker 1: The Rugby League Players Group shared a post on social 65 00:02:59,639 --> 00:03:02,520 Speaker 1: media outlining the issues that they're looking to be addressed. 66 00:03:02,840 --> 00:03:05,520 Speaker 1: But I think the big I guess the big thing. 67 00:03:05,520 --> 00:03:07,680 Speaker 1: There's a lot of talk in the media. Probably I 68 00:03:07,680 --> 00:03:09,480 Speaker 1: think a lot of it is directed more towards the 69 00:03:09,480 --> 00:03:12,079 Speaker 1: male players. There's a lot of trolling about the female 70 00:03:12,120 --> 00:03:14,360 Speaker 1: players as well. But I think the big thing is 71 00:03:14,360 --> 00:03:16,280 Speaker 1: a lot of people in the public eye because of 72 00:03:16,320 --> 00:03:18,200 Speaker 1: the way it's been portrayed by the media think that 73 00:03:18,240 --> 00:03:21,120 Speaker 1: the players are just being greedy and asking for more money. 74 00:03:22,000 --> 00:03:24,560 Speaker 1: But the biggest thing they're pushing for is a lot 75 00:03:24,560 --> 00:03:27,800 Speaker 1: of these different policies that will quickly cover that are 76 00:03:27,800 --> 00:03:29,440 Speaker 1: about much more than more money. 77 00:03:29,680 --> 00:03:32,920 Speaker 3: Absolutely, Yeah, it's not just all a financial transaction here. 78 00:03:32,919 --> 00:03:36,800 Speaker 3: They're looking for better conditions, you know better. I think 79 00:03:36,840 --> 00:03:40,440 Speaker 3: the key thing that I researching this was they're really 80 00:03:40,720 --> 00:03:45,640 Speaker 3: looking to take more care for players post football careers, 81 00:03:46,400 --> 00:03:48,280 Speaker 3: which I think is so important and something that we 82 00:03:48,440 --> 00:03:51,920 Speaker 3: see in all sports rabbily un alone that we that 83 00:03:52,000 --> 00:03:53,360 Speaker 3: everyone could do a lot better. 84 00:03:53,960 --> 00:03:57,360 Speaker 1: So they're talking about a new medical support fund, as 85 00:03:57,400 --> 00:03:59,800 Speaker 1: you said, into retirement. We know the rates have con 86 00:03:59,840 --> 00:04:01,800 Speaker 1: c and some of the scary stats around that it's 87 00:04:01,800 --> 00:04:06,600 Speaker 1: going to be a huge one into retirement. First ever NRLWCBA, 88 00:04:06,840 --> 00:04:10,440 Speaker 1: So the women's players have never had contract security because 89 00:04:10,440 --> 00:04:13,440 Speaker 1: they haven't had a CBA in place better terms for 90 00:04:13,480 --> 00:04:17,760 Speaker 1: the most vulnerable players by raising minimum wages and training wages, 91 00:04:18,240 --> 00:04:21,280 Speaker 1: a new Past Players program to assist players to transition 92 00:04:21,320 --> 00:04:24,839 Speaker 1: to life after football, Fair agreement rights which includes hours 93 00:04:24,839 --> 00:04:28,360 Speaker 1: of work, number of matches played, pregnancy and parental policies 94 00:04:28,400 --> 00:04:30,360 Speaker 1: which as we said, we'll discuss in the key story 95 00:04:30,400 --> 00:04:33,479 Speaker 1: about the importance of some of those. An improved injury 96 00:04:33,480 --> 00:04:36,039 Speaker 1: hardship fund which needs to be expanded to provide for 97 00:04:36,040 --> 00:04:39,680 Speaker 1: the NRLW teams and the new NRL team in Queensland. 98 00:04:40,120 --> 00:04:42,800 Speaker 1: And a fair share of revenue that is not just 99 00:04:42,839 --> 00:04:46,080 Speaker 1: shared with players but also invested in new programs and 100 00:04:46,160 --> 00:04:51,520 Speaker 1: benefits that will support current, future, and past players. It's 101 00:04:51,600 --> 00:04:53,719 Speaker 1: not really none of those are really they're asking for 102 00:04:53,800 --> 00:04:54,760 Speaker 1: more money, no, And. 103 00:04:54,720 --> 00:04:57,159 Speaker 3: I think one of the biggest issues that the NRLPA 104 00:04:57,279 --> 00:05:01,680 Speaker 3: have had is that the NRL them announced this new 105 00:05:02,000 --> 00:05:04,280 Speaker 3: CBA and salary cap and things like that and thought, oh, 106 00:05:04,279 --> 00:05:06,000 Speaker 3: we've given them all way, they'll be happy, And there 107 00:05:06,080 --> 00:05:10,120 Speaker 3: was a real lack of discussion with the players. So 108 00:05:10,240 --> 00:05:14,400 Speaker 3: that lack of cohesion in the group is probably the 109 00:05:14,440 --> 00:05:15,240 Speaker 3: most frustrating thing. 110 00:05:15,360 --> 00:05:17,760 Speaker 1: Sorry, I'm distracted. The dog is scratching on the tour. 111 00:05:17,800 --> 00:05:19,400 Speaker 2: I'm going to let him in oy. 112 00:05:21,800 --> 00:05:24,560 Speaker 1: So one of the big areas of contention is the 113 00:05:24,560 --> 00:05:26,919 Speaker 1: fact that the Women's All Star Match is scheduled for 114 00:05:26,960 --> 00:05:29,760 Speaker 1: next month on February eleventh, which is not far away 115 00:05:29,760 --> 00:05:33,359 Speaker 1: at all. A number of the game's biggest names have 116 00:05:33,480 --> 00:05:37,600 Speaker 1: considered pulling out to protect their livelihood. Premiership winning Newcastle 117 00:05:37,640 --> 00:05:39,880 Speaker 1: fullback to meek Upton is the first to announce her 118 00:05:39,880 --> 00:05:43,320 Speaker 1: withdrawal from the Indigenous side, saying representing my family and 119 00:05:43,360 --> 00:05:45,880 Speaker 1: my community means everything to me, so having to withdraw 120 00:05:46,000 --> 00:05:48,560 Speaker 1: has been very upsetting. The All Stars is such an 121 00:05:48,600 --> 00:05:51,960 Speaker 1: incredible week, but training and playing with uncertainty around private 122 00:05:51,960 --> 00:05:55,120 Speaker 1: health insurance and when no NROLW contracts are in place, 123 00:05:55,400 --> 00:05:59,400 Speaker 1: puts everyone's futures at risk. The delay has also meant 124 00:05:59,400 --> 00:06:01,919 Speaker 1: the season's day so yet to be confirmed, leaving the 125 00:06:01,920 --> 00:06:04,359 Speaker 1: players in limbo. The Harvey Norman Cut, which is the 126 00:06:04,360 --> 00:06:08,000 Speaker 1: new South Wales based competition, trials begin this weekend and 127 00:06:08,040 --> 00:06:10,960 Speaker 1: while some players understand what they are risking by playing 128 00:06:10,960 --> 00:06:14,320 Speaker 1: without insurance which was covered up to December thirty first 129 00:06:14,360 --> 00:06:18,040 Speaker 1: through that NROLW contracts, many are opting not to play 130 00:06:18,120 --> 00:06:22,040 Speaker 1: until the CBA is finalized and NROLW contracts can be signed. 131 00:06:22,400 --> 00:06:24,960 Speaker 3: Yeah, because if they're playing Harvy Norman Cup right now 132 00:06:25,040 --> 00:06:27,640 Speaker 3: or training for All Stars and they blow a knee, 133 00:06:28,200 --> 00:06:30,760 Speaker 3: they don't have an ROLW contract for this season coming up, 134 00:06:30,800 --> 00:06:33,400 Speaker 3: so there's a good chance they won't be signed. 135 00:06:33,680 --> 00:06:35,520 Speaker 1: It's a huge risk and what I really like about 136 00:06:35,560 --> 00:06:38,040 Speaker 1: this situation is that from what I can tell, all 137 00:06:38,080 --> 00:06:40,560 Speaker 1: of the players are united, both across the men's and 138 00:06:40,600 --> 00:06:43,720 Speaker 1: the women's programs, are supporting each other, and I think 139 00:06:43,760 --> 00:06:46,960 Speaker 1: that's the best way to get things done, because at 140 00:06:46,960 --> 00:06:48,760 Speaker 1: the end of the day, the players are the game. 141 00:06:49,040 --> 00:06:51,400 Speaker 3: In tennis austrai And Open is currently being played in 142 00:06:51,400 --> 00:06:54,000 Speaker 3: Melbourne and on Sunday World number one that ech Fontek 143 00:06:54,120 --> 00:06:57,440 Speaker 3: crashed out in the fourth round against Alena Raburkina in 144 00:06:57,520 --> 00:07:00,599 Speaker 3: straight sets. Rybakina is the twenty second seat.
