The Time or The Monocle

We celebrate the induction of Debbie Lee into the Australian Football Hall of Fame, the evacuation of a group of Afghan athletes, and some welcome Tassie news. And we ask what do you do when you don’t agree with your club president? “Googling with Felicity” is back and we applaud some well-known Australians who are setting culture and a place at the table for some awesome new ‘skivvies’.

Eddie Betts has meant so much to all of us. On the eve of his 350th and final game he sat down with Shelley Ware to share some of his highs and lows, and lessons for all of us. We will miss what he brings to the game, but we haven’t heard the last of Eddie Betts.

Two Scaramuccis and a Flag Walk

We’re back and ready to discuss the big issues of the week. What is the answer to the lack of female senior coaches in the AFLW and what do we think about the changes to the schedule? We reflect, once again, on racism in football and discuss ways forward. And we relive our favourite moments of the Tokyo Olympics.

We mentioned:

How To Be An Antiracist by Ibram X Kendi

Other book suggestions:

Why We Kneel How We Rise by Michael Holding

Forty Million Dollar Slaves: The Rise, Fall, and Redemption of the Black Athlete by William C. Rhoden
