Podcast #59 – Sports Governance, Cricket’s Support, Funding and Development All Get An Airing!

If you are concerned about the way sport is being run today this is the show for you.

Our guest on this show is sports activist and the Executive Chairman of sports compression wear company, Skins, Jaimie Fuller. He has made it his life’s mission to try and clean sport up from doping, but also to see top flight sport governed properly. Is money the root of all sports evils? Tune in and listen to which sports he feels are currently failing their fans and players.

In our topics under the microscope we look at the viewing figures and crowd, or lack of, that turned up to watch Australia take on South Africa in the first One Day International of the season. Have the games been promoted adequately? Has the Pay TV deal taken the game away from the public? Will it damage Australian cricket the way it has in England? Or is there a feeling of entitlement amongst cricket fans having had access via free-to-air television for so many decades?

Following our interview with Jaimie we look at funding and game development of sport in Australia. Are the current structures working? Does this need to be revamped? Can players talk openly on issues or will their careers suffer if they do?
