Nat Grider + History making AFLW + Kokkinakis or is it Thokkinakis
The AFLW Season 7 kicked off over the weekend, with a historical 18 teams now competing in the women’s draw. We spoke to Brisbane Lion’s Vice Captain, Nat Grider, about the growth of the competition since 2017, ACL injuries, and whether AFL has found its place in Australia’s sporting calendar.
The Belgium Grand Prix happened early Monday morning (Australian time), and Libby now thinks she could be an F1 driver. The swimming World Short Course swimming event was held in Sydney over the weekend, prompting Georgie to re-live her tumble turn trauma. We talk rugby 7s and rugby union, and a new guy, Thokkinakis (?) going head to head with Kyrios in the first round of the US Open 😆.
The sporting documentary is having a moment and we talk about two new releases this week - Fearless: The Inside Story of the AFLW, and Ryan Reynolds’ foray into soccer team ownership in Welcome to Wrexham. Following on from our discussion with muscle advocate and NRLW player Julia Robinson, Libby talks about the importance of body image for kids and the Embrace Kids movie.
We give a shout out to Bonnie Hancok, who has just circumnavigated Australia in a kayak to raise money for mental health charity Gotchta4Life. Holy smokes that’s a long way!
