Changing the Game
Last weekend was a historic coming together of two key moments in women’s sport. The AFLW premiership was decided, with Melbourne winning its first premiership, and the Adelaide Strikers won its first title in cricket’s WBBL.
It was a weekend of high-profile, nationally televised sport that wouldn’t have seemed likely just a few decades ago, with both sporting codes once entrenched in the nation’s mind as the pinnacle of Australian masculinity.

On the podcast this week, David Washington is joined by Liz Walsh, a journalist who has charted the rise of elite women’s cricket and football to discuss how far we’ve come – and where to next.
