Sportzfan Radio show #235.1 | @SportzfanRadio

19 February 2012 235.1 ? Sportzfan Stan kick started the show with his weekly rant, this time?on the AFL?s first financial loss in a decade amounting to $23.6 millon. The AFL?s blame-game included the start up costs of the Gold Coast and Greater Western Sydney teams. ?John O?Callaghan observed that it?s bad economics and can?t be blamed on expansion costs that should have been factored into the budget. ?Tackling the issue of lack of media coverage for women in sport, Janice Crosswhite, President of Australian Women?s Sport and Recreation Association &?current VP for the International Association for Physical Education and Sport for Girls and Women spoke with the Sportzfan Radio panel. The Professor indicated that the Herald Sun?s only sports article on women?this week was on Olympian, Sally Pearson but was buried towards the back pages. Janice shed some light on the Sports Commission?s research in 2010 showing some progress for equality for women in sport. She also commented on Olympic historian, Harry Gordon?s?claim that since 1956, women have outperformed men in teams proportionate to medals won. Janice observed there was a lack of full time sports writers devoted to covering women?s sport or other ?B? sports like basketball, swimming, track and field, squash, and gymnastics. Social media may be part of the solution as traditional means have failed to date. Daniel Eade came on to talk hoops and discussed?the NBA and the NY Knicks surprising the league with their ?Linsanity? Jeremy Lin. Daniel thought that after losing?Carmelo Anthony and Amar?e Stoudemire for games the Knicks would be gone but they have rebounded with Lin at point guard. Injuries were a topic of discussion too, due to the condensed season with the big name?s not being able to handle so many?minutes per night.? There was also comment that the?NBL had yet to release any further?news about the?new franchise bids for Melbourne and Brisbane.
