  1. Why should a womens team have to beat a mens team? I thought you guys didnt want man playing on womens teams as it's not fair on women.

  2. All women's sports should be. Women's sport is not funded enough.

  3. ​ @muzzleflash1 how does it stink? I found the womens football just as good as mens football. Just less time spend on acting hurt as with the mens games.

  5. ​@occhamite why should a women's team have to beat any boys' team? I thought that men shouldn't be playing women's sports?

  6. ​ @occhamite I never asked for equal pay. I said there needs to be an increase in their pay. As it's not high enough as is. Plus im not just talking about soccer but all sports. Women's sports are underfunded.

  7. ​@occhamite your points are irrelevant to the conversation. But I can see you don't like women's football. The answer is simple. Don't watch it. It's not your money they are spending and it doesn't affect you at all.

  8. ​@occhamite how is an event that happens once ever 4 years. Stopping you from watching other sports😂😂 Shit man you've got much bigger problems than women kicking a ball around a field. 🤏🏼🍆

  9. Equal pay can be debated but the current level of funding is just too low. Grass roots should be funded equally not based on sex

  10. ​ @rbuss1087 grass roots dont make revenues. Who would pay to see an under 8s football game?

  11. ​ @rbuss1087 im not talking about adults. I'm talking about kids sports. And male sports are better funded.

  12. ​@rbuss1087 Government funds to male sports are higher than female teams. If a person wishes to donate to a club that fine by me. By the base level of funding should be the same.

  13. ​​ @rbuss1087 that could easily be changed if girls can see a future in sports for them. At the moment with the lack of funds or leagues at the higher levels there is little reason for girls to do sport. I'm not saying they deserve equal pay. But the level of pay for the women are not high enough. Girls should be able to play sports and in the future make money of it.

  14. Lots of female afl players in Australia have been saying for years they want a pro level League and the lack of one is a main reason alot of women gave up the sport as after the age of 15/16 there was no way of going higher. Now that AFLW there is a higher Attendance in girls playing afl. The lack of a future in the sport is a big reason girls give up or don't start sports.

  15. Plus children's sports shouldn't be funded on the future Revenue from the players but funded to allow both sexes the chance at playing the sport and future income from playing the sport. Once they go pro that's when a difference in income can be talked about.

  16. The level of funding for grass root women's sports isn't enough. The pro levels is debatable but its definitely true for lower level.

  17. Grass roots are funded mostly by governments. Without that no pros.

  18. ​ @muzzleflash1 that doesn't change the fact that the government (taxpayers) are a large proportion of funding for alot of grass root sporting clubs.
