Netball is the highest-participation sport for women and girls in Australia, but with only a handful of spots available in the Super Netball – the world’s best professional league – it’s a hard-fought battle at the top. Netball and football commentator Georgia Rajic tells Reged Ahmad how the rise of other viable sporting careers such as AFLW is causing some netballers to look elsewhere for opportunities rather than spending years waiting on the sidelines

Why some netballers are turning their backs on the sport

Thousands attended the ‘March for Australia’ anti-immigration rallies around the country on the weekend. Among those there were neo-Nazi groups and far-right figures who have captured the headlines. While the organisers have distanced the events from white supremacists, and the prime minister, Anthony Albanese, said some good people attended too, the protests have still been widely condemned as hateful. Reged Ahmad speaks to independent researcher into rightwing extremism Dr Kaz Ross on whether we are seeing a growing anti-immigration movement in Australia and an emboldened far right
