    BBL Match 61 The Final Perth Scorchers v Brisbane Heat 1900hrs @ Perth Stadium

    Neser and Johnson have been starring. Kuhnemann was awesome last game out. Bartlett had a ripper a couple of games ago. The great unknown is how they handle bowling on the Perth deck. We've been taking the pace off the ball in the last couple of games. Not sure it's going to be as...

    BBL Match 61 The Final Perth Scorchers v Brisbane Heat 1900hrs @ Perth Stadium

    Runs on the board puts the Heat in front. The first couple of overs could change that pretty quickly.

    BBL Match 61 The Final Perth Scorchers v Brisbane Heat 1900hrs @ Perth Stadium

    Yeah, 171 and Perth got there losing only 3 wickets.

    Fell in a hole. Should have been 180.

    2 for 1 off 4 balls in the 19th over. Disastrous.

    Need to get it over 170 to make it a good contest

    Bryant playing the Renshaw role perfectly

    Heat doing Heat things. Going to need Neser to throw the willow and then do well with the ball.

    Wait, so you think someone suggesting you were deflecting, and you believing I am deflecting, added together makes irony? We don't all share a brain here, and I fail to see how I am deflecting when explaining that more than one issue can be discussed, and when I am posting on topic in a thread...

    I think so. More a case of 'she can handle herself, don't worry about her'. Might have done the issue a huge disservice, although her colleagues may have still commented the same way ensuring the issue was talked about.

    Oops Chris

    You do realise that one does not diminish the other as an issue though right? There is nothing to say that people should concentrate on the biggest news story or the most catastrophic news story and not on any others. Sure, we can use world events to find perspective when it comes to what we...

    Work colleagues are hooking up as we speak in offices everywhere too. If one makes an unwelcome advance though, and the other one complains ... we have a problem. So a lot of workplaces frown on any sort of fraternisation between employees, because the chances of something going wrong and a...

    Not purely because of that. I'd say the live TV and the public look of what also contributed. She did not try to fuel it, did not try to excuse it. Said she was disappointed and was glad for the talk on the issue generally. She handled it very professionally.

    Oops Chris

    Perhaps this very public discussion will make it even easier to this to happen. However, I suspect most of the time they don't want anybody to get in trouble. Don't want to be seen to complain about individuals and strain working relationships, but would prefer that the behaviour just stopped...

    Look, it quite clearly happened with Bravo when she was hosting on Fox Sports. It was set up by the male reporter to send a message to Mel back in the studio. It was mild, Hi to the beautiful Mel, I see she is still beautiful' kind of stuff. She was clearly embarrassed but she hosting a panel...

    Oops Chris

    He did answer the questions, he just laced it with the other stuff. Her only tactic was to ask the next question or end the interview.

    Yes. There is a sexual discrimination body and Worksafe can intervene over workplace harassment. It's not easy to prove however so education from the top down is always the best method. Hoping this creates a greater willingness. Certainly network execs have to pay heed and sporting...

    No, because calling him out on air makes a farce of the coverage and her professionalism. Very few journos would do that on air unless they couldn't wrap up the interview without doing so.

    Oops Chris

    Which is why people shouldn't be concentrating on Gayle and sarcastic remarks such as 'execute him' and instead look at the issue at large.

    The times they are a changin'. What was may not always be. Social acceptance is not set in stone and social change usually occurs for the better, if not from an individual perspective.

    Fine ignore that and address the clearly defined line that should still be expected in a field such as sports journalism whose primary focus is sports not sexual attraction.

    Scripted entertainment. I'm not a massive fan of the movie however.
  24. The Old Dark Navy's

    Oops Chris

    It's either okay or it isn't. It's not like these reporters have a job giving out lap dances in a club and complaining about harassment. There is still a more clearly defined line there.

    I note that Chris Rogers called 10 on it though.

    Oops Chris

    You have to realise that it could be the smallest of things. Calling her 'babe', 'hun' or something in passing. A wolf whistle. Leering. Talking at her chest, not her face. A joking comment about her gender. In isolation they are minor and are brushed off. Over time, there is just a flash...

    Do you think the fact it happened live on air has raised its profile. Journalists call players, managers, agents, coaches, officials and fellow journalists for information all the time. They might met up with someone in a café, at training, in the change rooms, in a hotel suite. They are...
