Australia have now joined New Zealand and Norway in placing male and female players on the same pay scale.
Our players currently don’t get paid same as their male counterparts.
At work male colleagues laughed at the news, saying no chance. Don’t deserve it. I told them I found it odd they laughed at it as weren’t they playing the same sport? Capacity crowd at Wembley this weekend. Practicing same amount etc.
Your thoughts? |

I think as womens football becomes more popular then country teams may end up on equal footing as the FA funds both of them. I imagine their argument at the moment would be that the fa makes a lot more money from television rights, merchandise etc from the england mens team than they do from the women. In league football I doubt they will ever come close to matching mens teams but international football will level out in the future I imagine |
