A week after winning bronze at the Women’s Basketball World Cup, Cayla George was gifted a baby. She joins hosts Cate Campbell and Hayley Willis to explain the tradition behind ‘island adoption’ and how the practice allowed her to fulfil her dream to be a mother whilst also continue to thrive in her basketball career.

Plus, off the back of Jelena Dokic’s attack from body-shaming trolls we explore the expectation of desirability that plagues current and former female athletes.

And if you want more, we take a look around the grounds at results from the weekend and let you know what you can watch coming up.
