Good morning sports fans 😎

Let's see how our #BallsOnly Australian Sunday Sports splashes treat #WomenInSport today 🤔

To get you in the mood, check out this top shelf multi-tasking here by @Bridie_OD 👍 https://twitter.com/Bridie_OD/status/1289495787655688192?s=20
UGH! All of the #SSN in 'Brisbane' and @brisbanetimes still manages to be a totally #BallsOnly Sunday sports splash 🙄 0/10

#WomenInSport #Diversity What even is that? 😡
WOW! This could be a first and not in a good way 😞 A totally #BallsOnly @GuardianAus & @GdnAusSport Sunday sports splash 0/14

I don't know what to say 😳 Beyond disappointing to see NO #WomenInSport in the Guardian splash, normally a shining light 😢
Sadly a totally #BallsOnly @newscomauHQ Sunday sports splash as usual 😞 0/4

#WomenInSport #Diversity What even is that? 🙄
Well this is beyond disappointing. All of #SSN in Brisbane, both Queensland teams played yesterday and state paper of record chooses to be #BallsOnly by neglecting to include in the splash. 0/7 🤬

#WomenInSport #Diversity What even is that? 🙄
UGH! of course a totally #BallsOnly @FOXSportsAUS Sunday sports splash 0/7

Good to see that - now - $40 million for #WomenInSport handed over by taxpayers to Fox put to good use.

Oh wait... 🙄
UGH! A totally #BallsOnly @7Sport Sunday sports splash 0/10.

And NO! WAG stories are NOT #WomenInSport and considering 7 choose to include these instead of you know, women play bloody sport in their sports splashes is pretty bloody odious 😡
And... your regular reminder that the #BallsOnly @tensporttv doesn't broadcast any #WomenInSport - AT ALL! 0/10 🤬

What year is it again 🙄
Oh Good Dog! A totally #BallsOnly @wwos Sunday sports splash 0/7 🤬

@9Netball is actually the broadcaster of @SuperNetball which started yesterday with a double header and another today but still couldn't get a gig in the splash FFS?!
Hallelujah! We have finally spotted the rare #WomenInSport piece in the wilds that are the Australia sports media sunday splashes, thank you @abcnews @abcgrandstand 🙏 3/11

Sunshine Coast Lightning open Super Netball season with Queensland derby win

The super shot proves a hit as the domestic netball season gets underway in Brisbane with the Lightning beating the Firebirds, while the Fever enjoy a win over the Thunderbirds.

and... a totally #BallsOnly @australian Sunday sports splash 0/10 😡

Exceptionally disappointing considering outside their sports area had one of the most beautiful #WomenInSport pieces I have ever read, by the incomparable @TrentDalton #HereIfYouNeed https://www.theaustralian.com.au/weekend-australian-magazine/bayswater-boilers-team-spirit-through-good-times-and-bad/news-story/3d5ee03fa832456b3f4ff21d56b346a0
As usual, a totally #BallsOnly @TheRoarSports Sunday sports splash 0/11 😡

#WomenInSport #Diversity What even is that? 🙄
SIGH! and a totally #BallsOnly @theage @theagesport Sunday sports splash 0/10 😡

#WomenInSport #Diversity What even is that? 🙄
UGH! A totally #BallsOnly @smh @SMHsport Sunday sports splash too 0/10 😡

#WomenInSport #Diversity What even is that? 🙄
ARGH! a totally #BallsOnly @dailytelegraph Sunday sports splash 0/8 😡

Your regular reminder this publication has a dedicated #WomenInSport area - if you can find the tab - @SwoopScoop just choose to rarely feature in the highly eye-balled splash area 😞
UGH! and again a totally #BallsOnly @facebook Sporting News Australia Sunday sports splash 0/10 😡

#WomenInSport #Diversity What even is that? 🙄
SIGH! and a totally #BallsOnly @MSNAustralia Sunday sports splash 0/11 😡

#WomenInSport #Diversity What even is that? 🙄
PHEW! @WestCoastFever halt the #BallsOnly march with a showing in the @westaustralian Sunday sports splash 😌 1/6 #WomenInSport

1. Fever open netball season with a bang https://thewest.com.au/sport/netball/west-coast-fever-start-super-netball-season-with-dominant-win-over-adelaide-thunderbirds-ng-b881626795z
UGH! a totally #BallsOnly @theTiser Sunday sports splash 0/8 😞

and... NO! A story about an AFL WAG or an F1 drivers wife's Insta post are NOT #WomenInSport pieces SIGH!
Well I suppose they at least put the 'former Aussie tennis star' in the hero image? 🙄 Barely counts in the #BallsOnly @theheraldsun Sunday sports splash .5/8 #WomenInSport

Odious framing in the @theheraldsun 😡

1. How the hell is an Alicia Molik invitation the fault of AFL dudes shitty judgement?
2. Unflattering shot for the hero?
3. No name in either title or blurb?

Good to see Darwin Netball Premier League again interrupt a pretty #BallsOnly Sunday sports splash 1/8 #WomenInSport

1. Falcons seal game after slow start https://www.ntnews.com.au/sport/tracy-village-falcons-soared-to-second-place-in-darwin-netball-after-sealing-a-win-over-waratahs/news-story/c2a31334bfd6199eb58f955353c82fe6
and... we end with @themercurycomau #BallsOnly Sunday sports splash with half a point due to *that* syndicated "OMG! That evil Alicia Alicia Molik temptress causing problems for poor AFL dude" FMD! UGH! .5/8 😡

.5 How Fed Cup tennis captain cost Pies $25k https://www.themercury.com.au/sport/afl/afl-covid19-breaches-collingwood-under-investigation/news-story/f65e942f43bd54b159e111ffcc87c34b
So you wouldn't know it, but... This weekend in #WomenInSport we had @SuperNetball start with their controversial two-point super shot (gee that attracted attention, NOT), FNQ Rugby kicked off, AFLW made headway with dates, pretty sure NSW Women's Rugby League etc.

So...
It is fair to say that the #BallsOnly session for #WomenInSport in Australia's sports splashes was seriously shitty!

6 out of 188 for 3.2% #WomenInSport

SIX!! 🤬
Honorable mention to @ericpaulgeorge for a lovely piece on the equally lovely @sc_lightning Goal Keeper Phumza Maweni 😍
