After picking up the West Australian paper on Saturday I was pleased beyond measure to see that they had finally acknowledged the fact that we have world cup winning player’s in our country and no less importantly from our state. Especially when some of these players are Western Australian born and bred!
The victorious Women who won the inaugural world cup in Dubai were finally getting some recognition for their efforts they deserve all be it very late in the piece (that particular competition finished 4 weeks ago). But low and behold after they have also gone on to win the prestigious Honkers tournament I picked up the paper this morning and looked in the rugby section and there is no mention of them again being all conquering only the fact that the MENS FIJI team won their competition.
Where is the priority West Australian I see AFL made an unprecedented amount of pages well done! You do realise our West Australian teams LOST!!!!!
Do they in there infinite wisdom realise that the IRB is currently courting the Olympic committee to have 7’s added into the games? If successful I guess then if these same women won an Olympic gold medal their AFL sports writers will be fawning over these girls and spouting about them being international sporting heroes. Something their beloved AFL players can never aspire to!
West Australian you are to late these girls are already International sporting Heroes you just haven’t given them the recognition they deserve! Shame!!!
