  • Summary

  • Matildas greats Kate Gill and Tal Karp plus current star Tameka Yallop, along with esteemed writer and academic Fiona Crawford, join John Didulica and David Davutovic for a strong-hearted discussion about the gulf that was (partially) bridged after a brave move by a group of Aussie football players.

    In this episode:

    • The match between USA v Australia in Detroit, Michigan in September 2015, and why the Matildas didn't play
    • The power of unity and solidarity in trying to break down disparity
    • Equality in sport, how it has changed, and what still remains to be done


    Produced & edited by Lucas Perry, Optus Sport.
