This weird take on women pundits at the World Cup got the two-footed tackles it deserved
10.
-They are two insightful pundits, commenting on the sport they excelled in
-Netball and basketball are two different sports. It's like getting Mike Atherton to commentate on rugby league
-'Major league basketball' is not a thingApart from that, great.https://t.co/tqTsGO9qbm

There’s no such thing as ‘major league basketball’ and netball and basketball are two completely different sports, otherwise 10/10 amazing opinion can see why you wanted to publicise this opinion

No it would be like a WNBA player commenting on the NBA.
Netball and basketball are two completely different sports.
The scenario you’re talking about would be more like a Rugby Union player commenting on Rugby League.

For the record my 11-year-old daughter now likes to listen to the commentary as well as watch the game. That’s a win. Now get lost.

To conclude, then …
Women love football.
Women play football.
Women can analyse football.
You can still love, play & analyse football.
It doesn’t mean – as a bloke – you have to be threatened by their knowledge, presence or expertise.
Get over it.
We can all enjoy the #WorldCup— Dan Walker (@mrdanwalker) June 21, 2018
