BREAKING: 1. You’ll remember in our 4 Corners, Hiding Behind Tombstones, Matt Barker, former Scout whose case was blocked by a permanent stay despite his abuser being alive/willing to give evidence. Matt raised $327k for his legal fight. Big news today, Scouts NSW has settled…

The number of CFA volunteers has dropped again, there's 300 fewer operational vols than last year according to the annual report. But since 2012-13 there's been a drop of 10,000 operational volunteers in the CFA #springst

@mike_salter Congratulations Michael, that's excellent recognition of your work and its importance

Some news.

@rohan_connolly I agree Rohan, the games I have seen highlights of this year have looked great. But I am only getting to my first game of the year this weekend because the scheduling often makes it difficult.

Hear, hear on this. Most games I've watched this season have been really entertaining and the skills consistently improved. It's a good product, deserves more than the at-times tepid support it gets from the AFL. #AFLW

@marnievinall The 5pm games on a Friday night are awful for most people to get to (do we know why that time was frequently scheduled?) and lots of games at fairly far-flung suburban or regional grounds also make it harder for many to get to

The AFLW will fall short of the crowd figure needed to trigger an extra round of games next season, with more than 104,000 people required to attend the final round to hit the mark – a figure that will be impossible to reach given venue capacities. theage.com.au/sport/afl/why-…

@battledinosaur You've produced such beautiful storytelling across the WC, congratulations on all of your work.

I've got one more story to come tomorrow morning reflecting back across this incredible #FIFAWWC and the #Matildas who have changed Australia. it's a story about a lot of things, but mostly about dreams. and it begins in a small pub in NSW. I hope you enjoy it.

@adamliaw Agree - I sat next to two two lovely young guys at the first match I went to who were so into the match. Second game had a father and adult son in front of us who were taking selfies together and having a ball. Game changer.

I'm a regular watcher (and attender) of women's sport events but always with family, and it dawns on me that this #FIFAWWC is the first time I've arranged with my male friends to get together specifically to watch women's sport and I reckon I'm not the only one. #Matildas

Aus v Canada was Seven’s most-watched program so far this year. 4.71 million people tuning in.

@CathMurphySport @TheMatildas Two reasons to be thankful to Ireland today!

GOD I LOVE MARY FOWLER 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻 But then she has good genes 😜🇮🇪 WHAT a performance by the @TheMatildas 🌟 #FIFAWomensWorldCup

@TheMatildas The real Tillies just stood up. What a win!!!!

@pipcourtney It is a beautiful novel. I've now gone back to read Robbie's earlier book, The Rain Heron. Enjoy the lovely read.

JOYOUS ZAMBIA ARRIVAL 🇿🇲🧡 Copper Queens sing as one upon reaching stadium for first ever World Cup. A moment away from the pitch that captures the Spirit & Unity of International Football.

THIS IS WOMEN'S FOOTBALL IN 2023 ❤️ COULD NOT LOVE THIS MORE

@Evan_M_G They were so brave

i have suddenly developed an overpowering affinity with the Haitian people, their ambitions, their dreams, and a deep yearning for the destruction of their foes #ENGHAI

Hey 👋 Oz media We know that the FIFA Women’s World Cup is about to start, but we just qualified for our World Cup this morning ⬇️

On the eve of the soccer World Cup the local association takes the girls competition usual field because the boys need it and shove the girls down to a field out the way without telling them. #nice

NSW Justice Peter Garling ruled again today that @mattvscouts, a victim of convicted paedophile, should pay costs of @ScoutsNSW, who successfully sought permanent stay to shut down his case vs them. Matt has so far crowdsourced $224k to appeal. @4corners caselaw.nsw.gov.au/decision/1893e…

@LiangRhea @Ninecomau 😂😂😂😂😂😂

This is wonderful news for gender equity, but I think you might mean *cricketers* not crickets 🦗🦗🦗@Ninecomau 🤣 #proofreading
