With the men's game having an international break, we thought it only right that we take a more in-depth look at the women's game.
We talk about how there needs to be less of a divide within teams themselves, from separate social media accounts and playing at different grounds, to the recent news that women's academy sides are being treated as "non-elite"
We also highlight five players who we think embody being punk in the women's game.
DISCALIMER - The audio on my side (Tim) for some reason is a little jumpy (I have no idea why) but it doesn't hinder the episode.
