Chicks Talking Footy

Thirty-five of our lucky JOY community caught the Kinetic Pride bus to the Pride Game at Victoria Park!

We crossed to roaming Tri who gave us the latest gossip on the bus and just like roaming Brian she loved to get people to chat on the mic. One person came to their first ever AFLW game.

Bec and Fi chatted to the Mayor of Yarra – Claudia Nguyen during the Pride Game at Victoria Park. We talked about the significance of the game being played in Yarra which has the highest population of LGBTIQA+ people in Victoria, their strategy with Rainbow Yarra for the area and what the game meant to her personally as a member of our community.

Claudia tipped a draw to be diplomatic.

Bec Miller did not miss a game for Richmond across the first three AFLW seasons, racing to 25 games. Bec is a key defender who was selected in the All-Australian squad of 40 and finished runner-up in the Tiger’ 2022 best and fairest had an injury interrupted Season 7. At 27, she still has a long future ahead of her in the competition.

The jumper, which is Richmond’s third AFLW Pride guernsey, was developed by Bec and Libby Graham, in conjunction with artist Matthew Chan. Featuring on the design are fireworks, made up of important words and phrases used regularly within the team, in a nod to celebration, an important value for the side

The Chicks are ramping up for the AFLW Pride Round by chatting to Sarah Rowe from Collingwood about the work the Pies are doing to celebrate Pride at Vic Park.

The Carlton AFLW teams also did a tour of the Victorian Pride Centre and we caught up with them about their experience at Rainbow HQ.

Oh and big retirement news with Erin Phillips – should we name a medal after her?

Bec, Motty and Sasha with special guest panellist Dave caught up with ABC radio host Bobby Macumber and Emma Race, CEO of Making The Call – two women doing wonderful things in the footy world.

They worked out how they would run the AFL if they were put in charge – anyone for a supporter getting a lucky ticket to swap places with a player for 5 minutes or maybe even a double denim round?

Fi was joined by guest host Kel Rowe. Together they watched the trade news drop within minutes of going on air, reviewed AFLW season 7, hashed through the new professional standards of AFLW – take your ice bath and get some sleep is the new standard apparently and celebrated the indigenous guernsey.
