The Commonwealth Bank Matildas head north to Townsville tomorrow, Friday, 8 April, for the first of a two-match series again the New Zealand Football Ferns. While it might be called a friendly match, there will be nothing friendly about the tussle on the pitch between the two sides.

I would just wish every time 10 mention about streaming sport through Paramount+ since each network do promote the same or similar anyway. They could use something like ‘ad free siren to siren during play’ for Football matches. It might help with sign ups. I know it could not be a solution but it might be worth it unless it has copyright issues.
