1
00:00:05,640 --> 00:00:10,160
Speaker 1: Welcome to the Rap, a weekly podcast covering women's sports news.

2
00:00:10,360 --> 00:00:13,240
Speaker 1: My name is Chloe Dalton. I'm an Olympic gold medalist

00:00:13,320 --> 00:00:17,640
Speaker 1: in rugby sevens and currently play AFLW for the GWS Giants.

4
00:00:18,480 --> 00:00:21,560
Speaker 1: Every week on the show, I'm joined by my co host.

5
00:00:24,640 --> 00:00:25,000
Speaker 2: Wow.

6
00:00:25,560 --> 00:00:31,040
Speaker 1: She's expectingly expectantly waiting a big introduction. She's across all

7
00:00:31,080 --> 00:00:34,680
Speaker 1: things women's rugby, managers the new South Wales Super w

8
00:00:34,920 --> 00:00:39,040
Speaker 1: warortized team. She's a chief researcher at TEFAP, Queen of Merchandise,

9
00:00:39,320 --> 00:00:42,040
Speaker 1: and she finally has succumbed to the spicy cough.

10
00:00:42,360 --> 00:00:46,040
Speaker 2: Yes, coming to you live from Covid Town. Thanks for

11
00:00:46,080 --> 00:00:51,320
Speaker 2: that intro. Let's take a look around the grounds. Sally Fitzgibbon,

12
00:00:51,360 --> 00:00:54,120
Speaker 2: a cut from the World Surf League, Sam Kerr named

13
00:00:54,160 --> 00:00:57,360
Speaker 2: Women's Footballer of the Year, and boxes sell out Madison

14
00:00:57,400 --> 00:00:58,080
Speaker 2: Square Garden.

15
00:00:58,320 --> 00:01:01,400
Speaker 1: For our key story, we'll discuss the damning report leaked

16
00:01:01,520 --> 00:01:06,839
Speaker 1: about AFL umpires revealing a toxic male dominated culture where

17
00:01:06,959 --> 00:01:11,120
Speaker 1: women were being subjected to sexual harassment from spectators, umpire

18
00:01:11,200 --> 00:01:14,360
Speaker 1: coaches and fellow umpires. Bit of a bit of a

19
00:01:14,400 --> 00:01:18,560
Speaker 1: horrible read that one. Unfortunately, this podcast drops every Tuesday

25
00:01:32,560 --> 00:01:35,880
Speaker 1: with your morning coffee. Let's take a look around the

26
00:01:35,880 --> 00:01:42,440
Speaker 1: grounds in netball. Last week, Sunshine Coast Lightning defender Kate

27
00:01:42,480 --> 00:01:47,960
Speaker 1: Walsh's defensive tactics that sounded like cactus tactics were slammed.

28
00:01:48,080 --> 00:01:50,920
Speaker 2: Cactus. Cactus would be cactus would be handy in the

29
00:01:50,920 --> 00:01:54,920
Speaker 2: shooting circle. Its spiky, Yeah, don't come near me. I've

30
00:01:54,920 --> 00:01:55,720
Speaker 2: got a cactus.

31
00:01:56,680 --> 00:02:00,200
Speaker 1: Her tactics, not her cactus, were slammed on social medi

32
00:02:00,360 --> 00:02:02,920
Speaker 1: after she was involved in a tussle with New South

33
00:02:02,920 --> 00:02:07,160
Speaker 1: Wales Swift's rookie goal shooter Sophie Fawns in last Saturday's

34
00:02:07,200 --> 00:02:11,920
Speaker 1: round six match. There are a couple of incidents. They

35
00:02:11,960 --> 00:02:15,200
Speaker 1: were shared quite a lot across Twitter. So Fawns took

36
00:02:15,200 --> 00:02:18,639
Speaker 1: front position against Walsh and then they were fighting for

37
00:02:18,680 --> 00:02:21,519
Speaker 1: that front position, so the Lightning defender appeared to push

38
00:02:21,520 --> 00:02:25,760
Speaker 1: her forum into the Swift's face. Many netball fans were

39
00:02:25,840 --> 00:02:28,440
Speaker 1: quick to condemn Walsh after this, and unfortunately some of

40
00:02:28,440 --> 00:02:31,480
Speaker 1: the commentaries stepped over the line into bullying. On Friday,

41
00:02:31,560 --> 00:02:35,120
Speaker 1: Netble Australia, the Sunshine Coast Lightning and Walsh took the

42
00:02:35,360 --> 00:02:38,720
Speaker 1: extraordinary step of issuing a joint statement condemning the bullying

43
00:02:38,800 --> 00:02:43,280
Speaker 1: she received online. Netble Australia CEO Kelly Ryan stated, Kate

44
00:02:43,520 --> 00:02:45,640
Speaker 1: first and foremost is a human being who has the

45
00:02:45,720 --> 00:02:47,840
Speaker 1: right to compete and play netball without being.

46
00:02:47,680 --> 00:02:49,880
Speaker 2: Subjected to this type of cruel behavior.

47
00:02:50,600 --> 00:02:54,640
Speaker 1: They talked a lot about the importance of athletes being

48
00:02:54,639 --> 00:02:56,959
Speaker 1: able to feel safe in netball, but also being able

49
00:02:57,000 --> 00:03:00,680
Speaker 1: to feel safe online and with social media. Really humbled

50
00:03:00,680 --> 00:03:03,240
Speaker 1: by the rest by the support she received after reporting

51
00:03:03,240 --> 00:03:05,880
Speaker 1: the online abuse, and thanked her club, Netball Australia and

52
00:03:05,919 --> 00:03:09,119
Speaker 1: the A and Players Association and all that had reached.

53
00:03:08,880 --> 00:03:09,359
Speaker 2: Out to her.

54
00:03:10,200 --> 00:03:12,480
Speaker 1: She said that she really hopes this experience can start

55
00:03:12,520 --> 00:03:15,280
Speaker 1: some positive conversations around the netball community and the wider

56
00:03:15,320 --> 00:03:19,080
Speaker 1: audience on cyberbullying and harassment on social media platforms and

57
00:03:19,160 --> 00:03:21,720
Speaker 1: if anyone is going through something themselves right now, know

58
00:03:21,800 --> 00:03:24,839
Speaker 1: that they too can reach out and gain help. Over

59
00:03:24,840 --> 00:03:26,680
Speaker 1: the weekend, she was back on the court against the

60
00:03:26,720 --> 00:03:29,280
Speaker 1: Giants and after the events of round six, the players

61
00:03:29,280 --> 00:03:32,480
Speaker 1: were unnoticed to play clean and tight. The umpires were

62
00:03:32,480 --> 00:03:34,800
Speaker 1: seen having early chats with mid quarters to tidy up

63
00:03:34,800 --> 00:03:38,040
Speaker 1: their defensive actions. Walsh's team had no answer for an

64
00:03:38,080 --> 00:03:40,800
Speaker 1: excellent Giants team, who posted their third win on the

65
00:03:40,800 --> 00:03:44,640
Speaker 1: trut thumping Sunshine Coast Lightning by twenty eight goals. The

66
00:03:44,640 --> 00:03:47,320
Speaker 1: scoring was outstanding, with Sophie Dwyer and Joe hart And

67
00:03:47,400 --> 00:03:49,960
Speaker 1: carving up in the goal circle. The pair scored the

68
00:03:50,040 --> 00:03:52,640
Speaker 1: highest total for fifteen minutes in twenty twenty two with

69
00:03:52,760 --> 00:03:55,440
Speaker 1: twenty six in the third quarter and equaled the record

70
00:03:55,440 --> 00:03:58,560
Speaker 1: total of eighty two for Super Netball in the eighty

71
00:03:58,560 --> 00:03:59,560
Speaker 1: two to fifty four win.

72
00:03:59,800 --> 00:04:04,880
Speaker 2: The Giants dominant in surfing, the WSL introduced a mid

73
00:04:04,920 --> 00:04:07,800
Speaker 2: season cut per season twenty twenty two, and that cut

74
00:04:07,960 --> 00:04:11,200
Speaker 2: has proved to be fairly brutal. So at the start

75
00:04:11,240 --> 00:04:12,800
Speaker 2: of the season it was confirmed that there would be

76
00:04:12,800 --> 00:04:15,880
Speaker 2: a reduction of surfers from the World Championship Tour at

77
00:04:15,880 --> 00:04:18,520
Speaker 2: the midway point, and the women's tour would go from

78
00:04:18,520 --> 00:04:22,800
Speaker 2: eighteen surface to ten. The men's WCT is also been

79
00:04:22,880 --> 00:04:27,160
Speaker 2: cut in this Mugaret River event, where the men's competitors

80
00:04:27,200 --> 00:04:29,599
Speaker 2: will go from thirty six surface to twenty two. The

81
00:04:29,720 --> 00:04:33,840
Speaker 2: cut endeavors to create a more competitive WCT and allow

82
00:04:33,920 --> 00:04:35,720
Speaker 2: the event to be surfed in a shorter time frame

83
00:04:35,760 --> 00:04:39,919
Speaker 2: in the most optimal surfing conditions. So obviously nature involved.

84
00:04:40,000 --> 00:04:42,400
Speaker 2: They really want to get the surfing done when the

85
00:04:42,800 --> 00:04:46,000
Speaker 2: conditions are at their peak. It's been a huge topic

86
00:04:46,000 --> 00:04:48,760
Speaker 2: of conversation and at Bell's Beach a petition was actually

87
00:04:48,960 --> 00:04:52,680
Speaker 2: signed and lodged. A large number of surfers submitted that

88
00:04:52,720 --> 00:04:55,960
Speaker 2: to the WSL asking for the mid season cut off

89
00:04:56,000 --> 00:04:59,479
Speaker 2: format to be reconsidered and disregarded. The World's Surf League

90
00:04:59,520 --> 00:05:03,440
Speaker 2: CEO Eric Logan responded and said the redesigned tour structure

91
00:05:03,480 --> 00:05:05,960
Speaker 2: has been met by the industry and fans with genuine

92
00:05:05,960 --> 00:05:10,560
Speaker 2: excitement and significantly increased engagement. The new structure will see

93
00:05:10,560 --> 00:05:12,640
Speaker 2: the surfers who have not made the cut drop down

94
00:05:12,680 --> 00:05:15,240
Speaker 2: to the World Challenger Series and compete to secure their

95
00:05:15,240 --> 00:05:19,000
Speaker 2: spot on next season's at WCT. So as Margaret River

96
00:05:19,080 --> 00:05:21,839
Speaker 2: moved into the third day of surfing, that acts began

97
00:05:21,960 --> 00:05:26,159
Speaker 2: to swing and the big names were not spared. Sally

98
00:05:26,200 --> 00:05:28,920
Speaker 2: Fitzgibbon went into the event ranked twelfth and just couldn't

99
00:05:28,920 --> 00:05:31,760
Speaker 2: summon the performance she needed to survive against Joanne de

100
00:05:31,839 --> 00:05:35,200
Speaker 2: Fay in the last sixteen Sally who's finished runner up

101
00:05:35,200 --> 00:05:37,320
Speaker 2: in the title race three times and has been on

102
00:05:37,320 --> 00:05:41,560
Speaker 2: the tour for fourteen years. So after going down to

103
00:05:41,600 --> 00:05:43,640
Speaker 2: de Fay, the realization that she was heading to the

104
00:05:43,680 --> 00:05:47,160
Speaker 2: Challenger Series sunk in. And I love her attitude, like

105
00:05:47,200 --> 00:05:50,719
Speaker 2: she's just such a positive human, she bravely said in

106
00:05:50,720 --> 00:05:53,840
Speaker 2: a post interview. I'm going into the hungry pit of piranhas.

107
00:05:54,279 --> 00:05:56,000
Speaker 2: Nothing will get you out of bit in the morning.

108
00:05:56,160 --> 00:06:01,440
Speaker 2: Like the next generation. I love's great the chin She's like, well,

109
00:06:01,600 --> 00:06:04,360
Speaker 2: next next job, here we go. One of those next

110
00:06:04,440 --> 00:06:07,039
Speaker 2: gen she will be up against is Molly Picklam, who

111
00:06:07,200 --> 00:06:09,320
Speaker 2: served out of her skin to beat Tyler right earlier

112
00:06:09,320 --> 00:06:11,000
Speaker 2: in the event, but she just couldn't back it up

113
00:06:11,040 --> 00:06:13,360
Speaker 2: in the quarter finals and went down to Courtney Connologue.

114
00:06:13,400 --> 00:06:18,159
Speaker 2: Picklm again disappointed but so young, and she said, I

115
00:06:18,160 --> 00:06:20,000
Speaker 2: do feel like I can match these girls. It sucks,

116
00:06:20,000 --> 00:06:22,320
Speaker 2: but I'm excited for next years, the next years to

117
00:06:22,360 --> 00:06:24,039
Speaker 2: come on tour, and I feel like I'm on a

118
00:06:24,080 --> 00:06:25,880
Speaker 2: decent path. If I stick to the things, it will

119
00:06:25,920 --> 00:06:28,640
Speaker 2: go my way. At time of recording, we're at the

120
00:06:28,680 --> 00:06:32,400
Speaker 2: semi final stage to a waiting for swell. Semifinal two

121
00:06:32,480 --> 00:06:35,680
Speaker 2: is the all Lossie affair between Brontie McCaulay and Isabella Nichols,

122
00:06:35,680 --> 00:06:39,120
Speaker 2: which has serious implications for both surfers. McCaulay needs to

123
00:06:39,160 --> 00:06:42,040
Speaker 2: win the event and Nichols needs to win her semi

124
00:06:42,040 --> 00:06:43,920
Speaker 2: final for them to both stay on tour.

125
00:06:44,040 --> 00:06:46,200
Speaker 1: It's a fair bit of pressure going into a semi

126
00:06:46,279 --> 00:06:47,040
Speaker 1: isn't it a.

127
00:06:47,080 --> 00:06:50,479
Speaker 2: Very large addition to like some already pre existing pressure.

128
00:06:50,600 --> 00:06:57,679
Speaker 1: So interesting In soccer, Sam Kerr has collected another award

129
00:06:57,680 --> 00:07:00,000
Speaker 1: over the weekend when she took home the English Football

130
00:07:00,400 --> 00:07:03,520
Speaker 1: Women Player of the Year award. The Matilda's captain won

131
00:07:03,560 --> 00:07:06,160
Speaker 1: a huge forty percent of the vote in the Football Writers'

132
00:07:06,160 --> 00:07:09,960
Speaker 1: Association poll to be found the best player in the

133
00:07:10,000 --> 00:07:14,600
Speaker 1: Women's Super League. She has been exceptional this season for

134
00:07:14,680 --> 00:07:17,160
Speaker 1: her team Chelsea. She's already kicked eighteen goals and had

135
00:07:17,200 --> 00:07:22,200
Speaker 1: four assists from eighteen or nineteen WSL games. She might

136
00:07:22,240 --> 00:07:24,800
Speaker 1: not have to wait long to add yet another trophy

137
00:07:24,800 --> 00:07:26,640
Speaker 1: to the cabinet. With the Women's Super League coming to

138
00:07:26,680 --> 00:07:30,040
Speaker 1: a close, in the UK. Chelsea have one match to

139
00:07:30,080 --> 00:07:32,720
Speaker 1: play and lead second place Arsenal, who have a game

140
00:07:32,760 --> 00:07:37,240
Speaker 1: in hand, by four points. Chelsea will face Manchester United

141
00:07:37,440 --> 00:07:41,560
Speaker 1: this weekend for their chance to win their third WSL

142
00:07:41,680 --> 00:07:46,360
Speaker 1: title in a row, just in case. Samko's trophy cabinet

143
00:07:46,840 --> 00:07:49,600
Speaker 1: was not full enough. As it was, She's almost certain

144
00:07:49,640 --> 00:07:51,640
Speaker 1: to win the twenty twenty two Golden Boot as the

145
00:07:51,720 --> 00:07:54,800
Speaker 1: WSL top scorer for a second straight season.

146
00:07:55,000 --> 00:07:57,840
Speaker 2: I think she's probably surpassed the cabinet stage of trophies.

147
00:07:57,920 --> 00:08:00,560
Speaker 2: What is next though? A wall? Is it just? I

148
00:08:00,560 --> 00:08:01,480
Speaker 2: think it's just a wall.

149
00:08:01,960 --> 00:08:07,120
Speaker 1: Maybe a shipping container that's not really on display, but practical.

150
00:08:07,280 --> 00:08:09,600
Speaker 2: Maybe when she's moving between countries.

151
00:08:09,720 --> 00:08:10,360
Speaker 1: That's a good point.

152
00:08:10,360 --> 00:08:15,360
Speaker 2: Actually, she travels a lot. In more soccer, Casey Oribelt

153
00:08:15,360 --> 00:08:18,000
Speaker 2: became just the second woman to oversee a men's A

154
00:08:18,080 --> 00:08:20,280
Speaker 2: League match and the first this season, when she took

155
00:08:20,320 --> 00:08:23,680
Speaker 2: the whistle for the per Perth Glory and Western Sydney

156
00:08:23,680 --> 00:08:27,200
Speaker 2: Wanderer's clash over the weekend. Kate Jaswek's created history in

157
00:08:27,280 --> 00:08:30,040
Speaker 2: January twenty twenty as the first woman to referee in

158
00:08:30,080 --> 00:08:34,320
Speaker 2: the competition, fifteen years after it was established. Robert said

159
00:08:34,360 --> 00:08:36,840
Speaker 2: before the match that she hoped that in the future

160
00:08:37,040 --> 00:08:39,280
Speaker 2: that this is the norm, that having female officials in

161
00:08:39,320 --> 00:08:42,240
Speaker 2: the A League Men's is not a special occasion. Casey

162
00:08:42,320 --> 00:08:45,120
Speaker 2: also rolled out one of our favorite t FAT quotes

163
00:08:45,160 --> 00:08:47,760
Speaker 2: here when she said, I really believe in the quote

164
00:08:47,800 --> 00:08:50,280
Speaker 2: that you can't be what you can't see, and I

165
00:08:50,320 --> 00:08:52,959
Speaker 2: think that for young female match officials, this shows that

166
00:08:53,000 --> 00:08:54,720
Speaker 2: there is a pathway in the men's game as well

167
00:08:54,760 --> 00:08:57,719
Speaker 2: as the women's game. So while officiating in her first

168
00:08:57,760 --> 00:08:59,800
Speaker 2: A League at men's match is a big tick in

169
00:08:59,800 --> 00:09:03,400
Speaker 2: the of her referrering goals, her ultimate dream is to

170
00:09:03,400 --> 00:09:05,480
Speaker 2: be involved in next to his FIFA Women's World Cup

171
00:09:05,480 --> 00:09:07,959
Speaker 2: in Australia and New Zealand. The home World Cup is

172
00:09:08,040 --> 00:09:09,959
Speaker 2: top of the list for Riiebelt and she notes it's

173
00:09:09,960 --> 00:09:12,520
Speaker 2: a special, special thing because it's here, we're hosting, and

174
00:09:12,559 --> 00:09:14,560
Speaker 2: it's a once in a lifetime opportunity, so I'm going

175
00:09:14,600 --> 00:09:17,040
Speaker 2: to give myself every chance to be able to officiate

176
00:09:17,080 --> 00:09:17,320
Speaker 2: in it.

177
00:09:17,760 --> 00:09:20,480
Speaker 1: In boxing, there was a bit of boxing history made

178
00:09:20,520 --> 00:09:24,040
Speaker 1: over the weekend when the first fight card headlined by

179
00:09:24,040 --> 00:09:27,480
Speaker 1: a women's contest was held in the famous Madison Square Garden.

180
00:09:28,120 --> 00:09:31,640
Speaker 1: The main fight was for the undisputed lightweight world championship

181
00:09:31,679 --> 00:09:35,240
Speaker 1: and raining champ Katie Taylor earned a thrilling split decision

182
00:09:35,240 --> 00:09:39,240
Speaker 1: win over Amanda Serrano in front of a seriously amped crowd.

183
00:09:39,679 --> 00:09:41,600
Speaker 1: The fight did not let the fans down, as two

184
00:09:41,640 --> 00:09:45,400
Speaker 1: of the sport's finest exponents went at it over ten

185
00:09:45,679 --> 00:09:49,960
Speaker 1: intense two minute rounds in a final flurry that typified

186
00:09:50,000 --> 00:09:53,560
Speaker 1: the contest. Both fighters ended the fight swinging wildly, trading

187
00:09:53,559 --> 00:09:56,400
Speaker 1: blows with blood flowing from their faces. It was pretty

188
00:09:56,400 --> 00:09:59,480
Speaker 1: fall on as a capacity crowd of nineteen thousand, one

189
00:09:59,520 --> 00:10:03,920
Speaker 1: hundred and eight eighty seven absolutely went off. Taylor, the

190
00:10:04,040 --> 00:10:07,040
Speaker 1: unbeating Irish champion, earned scores of ninety six to ninety

191
00:10:07,040 --> 00:10:10,400
Speaker 1: three and ninety seven ninety three from two ringside judges,

192
00:10:11,400 --> 00:10:13,960
Speaker 1: while the other judge scored it ninety six ninety four

193
00:10:14,120 --> 00:10:19,280
Speaker 1: for Serrano from Puerto Rico. Taylor was ecstatic after the win, saying,

194
00:10:19,440 --> 00:10:23,200
Speaker 1: look at what we've just done. Sold out Madison Square Garden,

195
00:10:23,320 --> 00:10:26,400
Speaker 1: the biggest fight in female boxing history. What a win,

196
00:10:26,679 --> 00:10:29,400
Speaker 1: What a night. Tickets for this bout sold out in

197
00:10:29,440 --> 00:10:32,920
Speaker 1: the second fastest time for any boxing event ever at

198
00:10:32,960 --> 00:10:36,040
Speaker 1: Madison Square Garden. Serrano said the performance of the two

199
00:10:36,040 --> 00:10:38,840
Speaker 1: fighters and the ring backed up. Whateveryone already knew. Women

200
00:10:38,880 --> 00:10:41,640
Speaker 1: can sell, women can fight, and women can put on

201
00:10:41,679 --> 00:10:44,319
Speaker 1: a hell of a show. Katie is a great champion.

202
00:10:44,360 --> 00:10:48,400
Speaker 1: She's undefeated and undisputed. I'm truly honored to share the ring.

203
00:10:49,440 --> 00:10:52,040
Speaker 1: Serrano then posted on her social media channels after the

204
00:10:52,040 --> 00:10:55,560
Speaker 1: fight and celebrated the event after the fight, saying this

205
00:10:55,720 --> 00:10:58,080
Speaker 1: is cool. I might just like put this on my

206
00:10:58,160 --> 00:11:00,920
Speaker 1: wall or something. I'll add it to Sam Kurs Wall

207
00:11:01,000 --> 00:11:02,760
Speaker 1: of trophies.

208
00:11:02,600 --> 00:11:05,560
Speaker 2: Straight into the shipping Containna. We won.

209
00:11:06,120 --> 00:11:08,800
Speaker 1: We won for equality, we won for fair pay, we

210
00:11:08,840 --> 00:11:12,160
Speaker 1: won for boxing, we won for women, we won for

211
00:11:12,280 --> 00:11:15,600
Speaker 1: young girls. So I raised my hand as a champion,

212
00:11:15,960 --> 00:11:18,079
Speaker 1: no matter what. The outcome of one fight.

213
00:11:18,160 --> 00:11:22,080
Speaker 2: Was dropping mics. That's goosebumps right there, you're dropping mics.

214
00:11:22,600 --> 00:11:25,480
Speaker 1: Ozzie featherweight boxer Sky Nicholson fought on the undercart and

215
00:11:25,480 --> 00:11:30,000
Speaker 1: won a unanimous clear decision over Shaniko Paisley Davis to

216
00:11:30,040 --> 00:11:32,880
Speaker 1: move into three and zero in her pro career. Nicholson

217
00:11:32,920 --> 00:11:35,240
Speaker 1: knocked her American opponent to the canvas in the final

218
00:11:35,280 --> 00:11:37,600
Speaker 1: seconds of the sixth round, and the judges had Nicholson

219
00:11:37,600 --> 00:11:41,120
Speaker 1: winning all six rounds, with all three scoring about sixty

220
00:11:41,240 --> 00:11:43,760
Speaker 1: to fifty three. Nicholson is keen to get back in

221
00:11:43,760 --> 00:11:45,840
Speaker 1: the ring as soon as possible and said after the fight,

222
00:11:46,200 --> 00:11:48,480
Speaker 1: I can't wait to have a professional fight in Australia

223
00:11:48,520 --> 00:11:50,520
Speaker 1: in front of all my supporters that have supported me

224
00:11:50,559 --> 00:11:52,599
Speaker 1: from day one, that have been there through all the

225
00:11:52,640 --> 00:11:54,600
Speaker 1: amateur career as well.

226
00:11:54,720 --> 00:11:59,679
Speaker 2: In long distance running, in just absolutely mind blowing achievements.

227
00:12:00,120 --> 00:12:02,679
Speaker 2: Just put it into that category, shall we. Jackie Hunt

228
00:12:02,840 --> 00:12:06,680
Speaker 2: Barisma set an unofficial women's world record when the ampute

229
00:12:06,800 --> 00:12:09,120
Speaker 2: athlete achieved her goal of running one hundred and two

230
00:12:09,160 --> 00:12:12,800
Speaker 2: marathons in as many days, and just because she could,

231
00:12:12,880 --> 00:12:14,600
Speaker 2: she had two more over the weekend to wrap up

232
00:12:14,600 --> 00:12:16,520
Speaker 2: her challenge with one hundred and four marathons in one

233
00:12:16,600 --> 00:12:19,920
Speaker 2: hundred and four days. Bresma was born in South Africa

234
00:12:19,960 --> 00:12:21,640
Speaker 2: and lost her left leg below the knee to a

235
00:12:21,720 --> 00:12:25,200
Speaker 2: rare cancer. She runs on a carbon fiber PROCESSUS and

236
00:12:25,240 --> 00:12:28,400
Speaker 2: the forty six year old began her quest on January seventeenth,

237
00:12:28,840 --> 00:12:32,520
Speaker 2: covering the classic twenty six point two mile or forty

238
00:12:33,040 --> 00:12:35,240
Speaker 2: what do we do it? In our forty two kilometer

239
00:12:35,320 --> 00:12:38,360
Speaker 2: marathon distance on a look course laid out near her

240
00:12:38,400 --> 00:12:41,360
Speaker 2: home in Gilbert, Arizona. Her original goal was to run

241
00:12:41,400 --> 00:12:43,600
Speaker 2: one hundred marathons in one hundred days, so she would

242
00:12:43,600 --> 00:12:46,439
Speaker 2: beat the record of ninety five set in twenty twenty

243
00:12:46,440 --> 00:12:50,240
Speaker 2: by Alissa Amos Clark, an ablebodied runner from Bennington, Vermont,

244
00:12:50,280 --> 00:12:53,040
Speaker 2: who took it on as a pandemic coping strategy. A

245
00:12:53,240 --> 00:12:59,240
Speaker 2: similar to you, Bess. Running marathons is definitely not in

246
00:12:59,240 --> 00:13:01,360
Speaker 2: the top ten pandemic coping strategies.

247
00:13:01,400 --> 00:13:05,800
Speaker 1: For me was yours ninety five days of red wine. Look,

248
00:13:05,960 --> 00:13:07,000
Speaker 1: I think.

249
00:13:07,320 --> 00:13:11,439
Speaker 2: We all have our passions. Obviously running is not one

250
00:13:11,440 --> 00:13:17,920
Speaker 2: of mine. Then, earlier this month, another able bodied British runner,

251
00:13:18,080 --> 00:13:20,760
Speaker 2: Kate Jaden, unofficially broke Clarks recorded with one hundred and

252
00:13:20,760 --> 00:13:24,120
Speaker 2: one marathons in one hundred and one days. So Barisma

253
00:13:24,240 --> 00:13:26,240
Speaker 2: realized she was going to run it. Need to run

254
00:13:26,240 --> 00:13:28,319
Speaker 2: at least one hundred and two, just thought she'd knock

255
00:13:28,360 --> 00:13:31,160
Speaker 2: out one hundred and four along the way. She gained

256
00:13:31,360 --> 00:13:34,240
Speaker 2: huge social media attention as she should have, and raised

257
00:13:34,280 --> 00:13:37,120
Speaker 2: more than sixty seven thousand dollars to help fellow amputee

258
00:13:37,120 --> 00:13:40,080
Speaker 2: blade runners get the expensive processures they need.

259
00:13:40,400 --> 00:13:43,440
Speaker 1: I chatted to Ellie Cole on Season one of the

260
00:13:43,480 --> 00:13:46,600
Speaker 1: Tea Fat podcasts, and it's often not covered by health

261
00:13:46,600 --> 00:13:50,920
Speaker 1: insurance to get the equipment that's required and the prosthetics

262
00:13:50,920 --> 00:13:53,120
Speaker 1: that you might require, so they can often exceed.

263
00:13:52,880 --> 00:13:53,880
Speaker 2: Ten thousand dollars.

264
00:13:54,120 --> 00:13:57,000
Speaker 1: Ellie Cole's leg is like the most incredible robot ever

265
00:13:57,080 --> 00:13:58,920
Speaker 1: and it's I'm pretty sure over one hundred k.

266
00:14:00,400 --> 00:14:04,400
Speaker 2: So amazing effort from Hunt Brisman to go out and

267
00:14:04,480 --> 00:14:07,200
Speaker 2: raise that kind of money to help other athletes. Her

268
00:14:07,280 --> 00:14:10,080
Speaker 2: ninety second marathon was at this month's famous Boston Marathon,

269
00:14:10,320 --> 00:14:12,840
Speaker 2: and she hopes her quest will inspire people everywhere to

270
00:14:12,880 --> 00:14:15,920
Speaker 2: push themselves to do hard things. She said, I'm just

271
00:14:15,960 --> 00:14:18,360
Speaker 2: happy that I made it. I can't believe it. The

272
00:14:18,400 --> 00:14:20,480
Speaker 2: best thing it was the incredile support I've received from

273
00:14:20,480 --> 00:14:22,480
Speaker 2: people around the world who've reached out telling me how

274
00:14:22,520 --> 00:14:25,800
Speaker 2: this has inspired them to push themselves. Hey, that's cool. Yeah.

275
00:14:25,840 --> 00:14:28,080
Speaker 2: I also like that you've got that quote in your house.

276
00:14:28,160 --> 00:14:29,000
Speaker 1: We can do hard things.

277
00:14:29,040 --> 00:14:31,640
Speaker 2: We can do hard things. It's cool. I like it.

278
00:14:32,680 --> 00:14:35,400
Speaker 1: In rugby, this one was exciting. Got to watch the

279
00:14:35,440 --> 00:14:38,600
Speaker 1: final this morning Monday. The Ozzie sevens team have been

280
00:14:38,640 --> 00:14:43,359
Speaker 1: crowned the twenty twenty two HSBC World Rugby seven Series champions.

281
00:14:43,760 --> 00:14:46,720
Speaker 1: They secured the crown in Langford, Canada, early on Monday

282
00:14:46,720 --> 00:14:50,560
Speaker 1: morning when they won their quarterfinal against Spain. They've already

283
00:14:50,600 --> 00:14:53,880
Speaker 1: won three out of the first four legs to secure

284
00:14:53,920 --> 00:14:57,600
Speaker 1: the series. When they reached the semifinals, they weren't content

285
00:14:57,640 --> 00:14:59,440
Speaker 1: with the series win and put on a clinic in

286
00:14:59,440 --> 00:15:02,240
Speaker 1: the semi fin or to defeat Ireland twenty six to five.

287
00:15:03,080 --> 00:15:06,920
Speaker 1: Waiting in the Grand Final were fierce rivals New Zealand,

288
00:15:07,040 --> 00:15:08,880
Speaker 1: who were back on the World Series after missing the

289
00:15:08,920 --> 00:15:11,480
Speaker 1: early rounds due to travel restrictions placed on them by

290
00:15:11,560 --> 00:15:16,720
Speaker 1: New Zealand's COVID quarantine rules. It was a tight, tight match.

291
00:15:16,720 --> 00:15:18,400
Speaker 1: It was pretty cool to see them go head to

292
00:15:18,400 --> 00:15:21,040
Speaker 1: head again. These teams have not come head to head

293
00:15:21,080 --> 00:15:23,360
Speaker 1: since twenty nineteen on the World Series, so it's been

294
00:15:23,360 --> 00:15:25,680
Speaker 1: a really long time since we've actually got to see

295
00:15:25,680 --> 00:15:27,840
Speaker 1: them compete. It was so good to see because we

296
00:15:27,880 --> 00:15:31,000
Speaker 1: play quite a similar style of rugby. I think this

297
00:15:31,120 --> 00:15:33,920
Speaker 1: really expansive game, hard carries through the medal, but then

298
00:15:34,040 --> 00:15:35,360
Speaker 1: using the width of the field and some of the

299
00:15:35,400 --> 00:15:37,120
Speaker 1: strong finishes, so it was really cool to see the

300
00:15:37,120 --> 00:15:39,960
Speaker 1: two teams go back at it again. New Zealand took

301
00:15:40,000 --> 00:15:42,440
Speaker 1: a ten to seven lead into halftime and held a

302
00:15:42,520 --> 00:15:46,120
Speaker 1: seventeen to fourteen lead as time ticked away. It was

303
00:15:46,160 --> 00:15:50,600
Speaker 1: a very, very stressful last minute of the game. Maddie

304
00:15:50,640 --> 00:15:53,880
Speaker 1: leave I had a critical turnover just near the try line,

305
00:15:54,040 --> 00:15:56,240
Speaker 1: the Ossie's try line, and they had to go the

306
00:15:56,240 --> 00:15:58,880
Speaker 1: full length of the field. They had showed a lot

307
00:15:58,880 --> 00:16:01,840
Speaker 1: of patience and compose from a lot of pressure that

308
00:16:01,880 --> 00:16:05,280
Speaker 1: was coming from the New Zealand side and Lily Dick

309
00:16:05,640 --> 00:16:08,760
Speaker 1: almost stumbled over the line about two minutes after time

310
00:16:08,840 --> 00:16:11,720
Speaker 1: had expired to seal the win for the Aussies. And

311
00:16:11,760 --> 00:16:13,960
Speaker 1: I think it was a pretty important victory to silence

312
00:16:14,680 --> 00:16:17,600
Speaker 1: a few critics who've questioned the validity of Australia's series

313
00:16:17,680 --> 00:16:20,360
Speaker 1: win given the absence of New Zealand in the first

314
00:16:20,400 --> 00:16:22,640
Speaker 1: four rounds. And the Aussies will now look to the

315
00:16:22,640 --> 00:16:25,880
Speaker 1: final stop into Loose France, which starts on May twentieth,

316
00:16:25,920 --> 00:16:27,600
Speaker 1: where they will be keen to repeat the result and

317
00:16:27,640 --> 00:16:30,080
Speaker 1: finish the season with five event wins.

318
00:16:30,440 --> 00:16:33,680
Speaker 2: It was a very I must admit, I felt okay

319
00:16:33,680 --> 00:16:36,120
Speaker 2: with my COVID until this morning, screaming at the television.

320
00:16:36,160 --> 00:16:39,120
Speaker 2: I got a bit of COVID headspins. But it was

321
00:16:39,280 --> 00:16:42,200
Speaker 2: such an impressive match. I think what you said there, Chloe,

322
00:16:42,240 --> 00:16:45,760
Speaker 2: about the way they play a similar style. Watching the

323
00:16:45,760 --> 00:16:48,840
Speaker 2: games over the weekend because I'm not doing anything outside,

324
00:16:49,040 --> 00:16:50,760
Speaker 2: they're still so far ahead of most of the other

325
00:16:50,760 --> 00:16:54,160
Speaker 2: countries with just the length and the speed and the

326
00:16:54,240 --> 00:16:56,320
Speaker 2: quality of pass and it just puts them on the

327
00:16:56,320 --> 00:16:58,600
Speaker 2: outside of the defensive line over and over again. It's

328
00:16:58,640 --> 00:16:59,640
Speaker 2: really quite impressive.

329
00:17:00,080 --> 00:17:02,680
Speaker 1: It's good to watch, isn't it. Let's take a look

330
00:17:02,960 --> 00:17:04,240
Speaker 1: at the key story.

331
00:17:05,480 --> 00:17:09,280
Speaker 2: In AFL shocking sixty two page report titled Girls and

332
00:17:09,320 --> 00:17:14,160
Speaker 2: Women in Australian Football Umpiring Understanding, Registration, Participation and Retention

333
00:17:15,040 --> 00:17:17,600
Speaker 2: was conducted by the University of Sydney in twenty twenty

334
00:17:18,200 --> 00:17:21,000
Speaker 2: twenty twenty twenty twenty one and funded by the AFL.

335
00:17:21,520 --> 00:17:24,400
Speaker 2: That report was leaked on Sunday night and the findings

336
00:17:24,480 --> 00:17:28,800
Speaker 2: were confronting. The study was compiled by former aflw Field

337
00:17:28,880 --> 00:17:33,040
Speaker 2: umpire and researcher doctor Victoria Rawlings and former AFL Community

338
00:17:33,119 --> 00:17:37,800
Speaker 2: Umpiring Development boss Damien Anderson. It includes accounts from twenty

339
00:17:37,840 --> 00:17:41,360
Speaker 2: seven umpires, twenty six females and one non binary across

340
00:17:41,560 --> 00:17:45,600
Speaker 2: four focus groups from Victoria, South Australia, Queensland, New South

341
00:17:45,640 --> 00:17:48,879
Speaker 2: Wales and ACT. The AFL were not too keen on

342
00:17:48,920 --> 00:17:51,600
Speaker 2: the findings to be made public, and it's not hard

343
00:17:51,600 --> 00:17:54,240
Speaker 2: to understand why they took that position. The study reveals

344
00:17:54,240 --> 00:17:57,000
Speaker 2: a toxic male dominated culture, as well as women being

345
00:17:57,080 --> 00:18:02,119
Speaker 2: subject to sexual harassment from spectators, umpire coaches and fellow umpires.

346
00:18:02,560 --> 00:18:05,480
Speaker 1: There's been some concern from the AFL around the fact

347
00:18:05,480 --> 00:18:09,640
Speaker 1: that females represent only ten point eight percent of umpires nationally.

348
00:18:10,240 --> 00:18:13,200
Speaker 1: Despite the level of growth that we've seen from aflw

349
00:18:14,160 --> 00:18:17,560
Speaker 1: in play participation at a grassroots level, the same increase

350
00:18:17,560 --> 00:18:20,560
Speaker 1: has not been seen in the officiating ranks, and given

351
00:18:20,560 --> 00:18:23,560
Speaker 1: the feedback provided in this study, it's pretty easy to

352
00:18:23,560 --> 00:18:28,120
Speaker 1: see why one female umpire told the report, I used

353
00:18:28,160 --> 00:18:31,240
Speaker 1: to receive messages of nudes that other umpires would send

354
00:18:31,320 --> 00:18:34,800
Speaker 1: to me, and umpires during games would inappropriately touch me,

355
00:18:35,200 --> 00:18:38,000
Speaker 1: like when we're umpiring together and things like that. That's

356
00:18:38,040 --> 00:18:41,480
Speaker 1: what made me quit. It's quite confronting to read that.

357
00:18:42,400 --> 00:18:45,960
Speaker 1: Other complaints include female umpires being forced to share change

358
00:18:46,000 --> 00:18:49,399
Speaker 1: rooms with naked males and being racially vilified in the workplace.

359
00:18:50,000 --> 00:18:53,560
Speaker 1: The full report is available online and the contents are

360
00:18:53,640 --> 00:18:54,480
Speaker 1: quite confronting.

361
00:18:55,240 --> 00:18:58,320
Speaker 2: So there is only one current AFL field umpire, Eleniglossus,

362
00:18:58,440 --> 00:19:01,880
Speaker 2: and she's frustrated by the lack of progress. She wrote

363
00:19:01,880 --> 00:19:04,800
Speaker 2: a skating forward in the report in which she said,

364
00:19:05,040 --> 00:19:07,800
Speaker 2: in reading this research, I felt frustrated that girls and

365
00:19:07,840 --> 00:19:10,720
Speaker 2: women in umpiring roles are still facing the same obstacles

366
00:19:10,760 --> 00:19:13,840
Speaker 2: and challenges that I faced almost sixteen years ago. I'd

367
00:19:13,840 --> 00:19:17,440
Speaker 2: hope things would have improved. They certainly should have. While

368
00:19:17,520 --> 00:19:20,600
Speaker 2: umpiring juniors through the state level, I've worn uniforms that

369
00:19:20,640 --> 00:19:23,320
Speaker 2: don't fit these change rooms and impost segregation, and have

370
00:19:23,400 --> 00:19:25,680
Speaker 2: had my ability to perform question due to my gender

371
00:19:25,720 --> 00:19:30,560
Speaker 2: by spectators, players, coaches, the media, umpiring pers and umpiring coaches.

372
00:19:31,560 --> 00:19:34,159
Speaker 2: So in doing some research from this piece last night,

373
00:19:36,280 --> 00:19:39,280
Speaker 2: you know, Twitter's a pretty vicious place at the best

374
00:19:39,320 --> 00:19:44,280
Speaker 2: of times. I put AFL umpiring into the research, into

375
00:19:44,359 --> 00:19:48,480
Speaker 2: the search field in Twitter, and look there was, you know,

376
00:19:48,560 --> 00:19:51,800
Speaker 2: you standard, a variety of angry humans on Twitter over

377
00:19:51,840 --> 00:19:54,919
Speaker 2: the weekend about how you know, poorly the umpires performed,

378
00:19:54,960 --> 00:19:57,320
Speaker 2: et cetera, et cetera in the AFL. The thing that

379
00:19:57,320 --> 00:19:59,119
Speaker 2: really stood out to me was the personal attacks on

380
00:19:59,200 --> 00:20:02,480
Speaker 2: Eleni so she'd umpired the Carlton North Melbourne game, which

381
00:20:02,480 --> 00:20:04,840
Speaker 2: I watched as a Carlton fan on the weekend, and

382
00:20:04,960 --> 00:20:07,439
Speaker 2: during that match, Lenie she was knocked to the ground,

383
00:20:08,200 --> 00:20:10,480
Speaker 2: eyes on the footy Tom to Connin came over the

384
00:20:10,480 --> 00:20:13,000
Speaker 2: top of her. I think, to be fair, I think

385
00:20:13,040 --> 00:20:15,280
Speaker 2: the Carlton player shanked the kick and the ball landed

386
00:20:15,320 --> 00:20:18,280
Speaker 2: somewhere that they weren't expecting it to land, and Tom

387
00:20:18,320 --> 00:20:21,320
Speaker 2: to Conin kind of cleaned her up, but they both

388
00:20:21,440 --> 00:20:23,760
Speaker 2: just got up, brushed it off, played on nothing in

389
00:20:23,800 --> 00:20:26,880
Speaker 2: it kind of thing. The online comments though about that

390
00:20:26,960 --> 00:20:30,800
Speaker 2: incident and her performance in general were intense, and I

391
00:20:30,800 --> 00:20:32,600
Speaker 2: think the biggest thing that stood out to me was

392
00:20:32,720 --> 00:20:36,679
Speaker 2: just the language is different, you know, like it's just

393
00:20:36,920 --> 00:20:41,280
Speaker 2: the language is it's cruel, and it's gendered, and you know,

394
00:20:42,480 --> 00:20:44,880
Speaker 2: and there's just question after question about how she got

395
00:20:44,880 --> 00:20:46,720
Speaker 2: the gig and why she's umpiring in the AFL.

396
00:20:47,000 --> 00:20:49,119
Speaker 1: I'm just actually, while you're talking, I've just pulled the

397
00:20:49,160 --> 00:20:52,199
Speaker 1: video up because I didn't see it. But it's I

398
00:20:52,240 --> 00:20:55,480
Speaker 1: think that's the thing where that often starts, right, is

399
00:20:56,200 --> 00:20:59,480
Speaker 1: this assumption that's made immediately because she's a woman, she's

400
00:20:59,520 --> 00:21:01,840
Speaker 1: not going to be good at it, and so the second,

401
00:21:02,760 --> 00:21:04,480
Speaker 1: I don't even know if you call that a mistake.

402
00:21:04,480 --> 00:21:06,680
Speaker 1: I'm not sure what happened in that process in terms

403
00:21:06,720 --> 00:21:08,760
Speaker 1: of her being knocked over, like that's just something that happens.

404
00:21:09,440 --> 00:21:12,399
Speaker 1: Raiser Ray, one of the most well known umpires in

405
00:21:12,440 --> 00:21:16,960
Speaker 1: the game, was he did he get kicked. Something happened

406
00:21:17,000 --> 00:21:18,520
Speaker 1: not long ago and he recovered quite well. But it's

407
00:21:18,600 --> 00:21:20,240
Speaker 1: kind of part of the game and people loved it

408
00:21:20,280 --> 00:21:22,359
Speaker 1: from Raizor Ray. I thought it was this great highlight piece.

409
00:21:22,400 --> 00:21:24,639
Speaker 1: But the second that's a woman in that role, the

410
00:21:24,640 --> 00:21:27,280
Speaker 1: second there's a mistake or something that shouldn't have happened,

411
00:21:27,520 --> 00:21:29,160
Speaker 1: you just get crucified for it.

412
00:21:29,160 --> 00:21:32,960
Speaker 2: It was a real binker pointing exercise as to be

413
00:21:33,000 --> 00:21:34,199
Speaker 2: her fault. Yeah, it is.

414
00:21:34,560 --> 00:21:38,080
Speaker 1: Back to the report, it makes eleven recommendations to create

415
00:21:38,119 --> 00:21:43,240
Speaker 1: safe conditions for recruiting and retaining female umpires, including better education,

416
00:21:43,680 --> 00:21:47,840
Speaker 1: more accessible reporting tools, adoption of inclusive change rooms, and

417
00:21:47,920 --> 00:21:51,920
Speaker 1: improved coaching. Again on the chain rooms piece, it's a

418
00:21:52,000 --> 00:21:54,040
Speaker 1: bit silly that that has to be a recommendation. That

419
00:21:54,080 --> 00:21:57,640
Speaker 1: should be a common sense piece by now. As part

420
00:21:57,640 --> 00:22:00,960
Speaker 1: of the conclusion of the reports, it states that overwhelmingly

421
00:22:01,040 --> 00:22:03,880
Speaker 1: this study has demonstrated that girls and women in umpiring

422
00:22:03,960 --> 00:22:07,960
Speaker 1: navigate experiences whether they indirectly or directly told that they

423
00:22:08,000 --> 00:22:11,080
Speaker 1: do not belong or deserve to be an umpiring. While

424
00:22:11,080 --> 00:22:14,720
Speaker 1: at its best, umpiring provides participants with greater social, physical,

425
00:22:14,720 --> 00:22:17,560
Speaker 1: and mental health, this report demonstrates that gender plays a

426
00:22:17,600 --> 00:22:22,600
Speaker 1: significant role in constraining those benefits. I think, even reading

427
00:22:22,640 --> 00:22:25,359
Speaker 1: something like that, it's so interesting again the parallels that

428
00:22:25,480 --> 00:22:29,480
Speaker 1: exists between women who play sport, women who umpire and

429
00:22:29,520 --> 00:22:31,920
Speaker 1: officiate sport, and women who are trying to progress through

430
00:22:31,920 --> 00:22:35,080
Speaker 1: the ranks of these leadership roles in sport. It's indirect.

431
00:22:35,119 --> 00:22:37,639
Speaker 1: I think that's a great quote. Indirect and direct ways

432
00:22:37,640 --> 00:22:40,120
Speaker 1: of telling these girls and these women that they don't

433
00:22:40,160 --> 00:22:41,000
Speaker 1: belong in the game.

434
00:22:41,320 --> 00:22:46,080
Speaker 2: It's some really powerful language. And you're right, it's not

435
00:22:46,240 --> 00:22:49,360
Speaker 2: just umpiring, it's females in sport in general. It applies to.

436
00:22:50,119 --> 00:22:54,120
Speaker 1: Fl did release a statement, and they didn't explain why

437
00:22:54,160 --> 00:22:56,520
Speaker 1: the report hadn't been released last year. They did note

438
00:22:56,600 --> 00:23:00,159
Speaker 1: that the important findings and recommendations of the report have

439
00:23:00,200 --> 00:23:02,480
Speaker 1: formed the basis for a number of initiatives that have

440
00:23:02,520 --> 00:23:05,680
Speaker 1: been included in the Women and Girls Game Development Action Plan.

441
00:23:06,240 --> 00:23:09,920
Speaker 1: Which is in its final stages of completion. The initiatives

442
00:23:09,960 --> 00:23:12,400
Speaker 1: in the plan are designed to increase representation of women

443
00:23:12,440 --> 00:23:14,760
Speaker 1: and girls in all parts of our game, from players

444
00:23:14,800 --> 00:23:18,919
Speaker 1: to umpires, to coaches and administrators, and aimed at ensuring

445
00:23:18,960 --> 00:23:22,119
Speaker 1: a safe, welcoming and inclusive environment for women and girls,

446
00:23:22,119 --> 00:23:25,679
Speaker 1: including lifting the number of women umpires to forty percent.

447
00:23:26,000 --> 00:23:27,960
Speaker 1: And that's an interesting one while we're on it. While

448
00:23:27,960 --> 00:23:29,520
Speaker 1: I was looking at that video, and I just had

449
00:23:29,520 --> 00:23:33,880
Speaker 1: a quick stalk of Elenni on Instagram and just recently

450
00:23:33,880 --> 00:23:36,280
Speaker 1: at the end of March, she was leading a zoom

451
00:23:36,359 --> 00:23:41,760
Speaker 1: call for encouraging the next female AFLW and AFL umpires

452
00:23:42,160 --> 00:23:45,280
Speaker 1: so that it's a national female umpiring mentorship program. So

453
00:23:45,400 --> 00:23:47,280
Speaker 1: Eleni obviously does a lot of work in that space,

454
00:23:47,320 --> 00:23:50,080
Speaker 1: and hopefully the AFL take on board these recommendations from

455
00:23:50,119 --> 00:23:54,000
Speaker 1: the report to continue creating change in that space. Let's

456
00:23:54,000 --> 00:23:58,120
Speaker 1: take a look at what to watch the Suncourt Supernetball

457
00:23:58,240 --> 00:24:01,920
Speaker 1: enters Round eight and surprise tabletoppers. The Melbourne Vixen's hosts

458
00:24:01,920 --> 00:24:05,359
Speaker 1: the Queensland Firebirds at John Cane Arena on Saturday. The

459
00:24:05,400 --> 00:24:07,400
Speaker 1: match starts at five pm and if you can't get

460
00:24:07,400 --> 00:24:09,520
Speaker 1: out to the game you can watch live on Foxtel

461
00:24:09,600 --> 00:24:10,760
Speaker 1: and ko In.

462
00:24:10,840 --> 00:24:13,920
Speaker 2: At Rugby Union, the Wallaroos will play their first Test

463
00:24:13,960 --> 00:24:17,600
Speaker 2: match since August twenty nineteen when they take on Fijiana

464
00:24:17,760 --> 00:24:20,760
Speaker 2: this Friday. The match we played at sun Corp Stadium

465
00:24:20,760 --> 00:24:23,080
Speaker 2: in Brisbane. Kickoff is five pm and you can catch

466
00:24:23,080 --> 00:24:24,520
