Have you heard much about the FIFA Women’s World Cup?

Yeah, me neither. Media coverage is starting to ramp up now, but let’s face it, I can’t imagine if Australia won the right to host the men’s world cup it would be keeping such a low profile.

Have a think about it, do you even know when it starts? It’s July by the way.

I’d hate to think it was the media being lazy, or dare I say even sexist, but the public demand is out there because the organisers have already had to move one match to a larger venue as the first venue sold out so quickly. They are also expecting 100,000 fans to the opening ceremony.

I’d love to go – to see Sam Kerr in action would be a once-in-a-lifetime experience – but sadly there’s not a lot of games in Melbourne.

Are you going to the World Cup? Do you think there has been enough coverage in the media?

Sam Kerr is a champion. Would love to see her. And no, the build-up is underwhelming.

Women’s sport. A total contradiction of terms. Enough said Jacka. Next subject please.
