The Wellington Phoenix have hired the former Canadian coach at the centre of the Olympic drone scandal in 2024. Sports reporter Jonty Dine spoke to Lisa Owen.

An appointment sure to pique the interest of many New Zealand football followers. Olympic gold medal-winning coach Bev Priestman's penned a two-year deal to take charge of the Phoenix women's side. Priestman —who led the Canadian women's team to Olympic glory in 2021— has just finished serving a one-year ban from the game for her role in the Canadian team's misuse of drones at last year's Olympics. She told Mike Hosking that it's a long suspension and not something she's proud of, but in that time she's had a chance to learn, reflect, and grow. Priestman says she can't wait to get on the grass and do what she loves every day again. LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

What Red Bull have done to Liam Lawson is an absolute disgrace. He's been given an opportunity to be the second driver in their team and has been given absolutely no support whatsoever - and now he's been demoted and Yuki Tsunoda's been given the seat. You won't convince me Yuki Tsunoda is a better driver than Liam Lawson. Lawson was put in there for a number of reasons, one of which is his mental resilience, and he's going to need all of that now as he tries to recover from this. In many ways, the pressure comes off a bit as he goes into the Racing Bulls team, but Yuki Tsunoda isn't going to be able to drive a car that is specifically set up for Max Verstappen any better than Liam Lawson can. Lawson had 2 races on unfamiliar tracks, one of which was in the pouring rain in Melbourne. It's too small a sample size for his driving to be accurately assessed. We're about to get to Japan, a track he knows, and they've taken the keys off him. Liam Lawson will now recuperate and no doubt drive well for Racing Bulls - but it paints Red Bull in an absolutely terrible light. Yes, they are a massive, results-driven organisation. But they have been utterly negligent in their duty of care. This is where we've now reached in such a landscape of instant gratification, we have lost any ability to be patient. Imagine if you opened a new restaurant and after a couple of nights, you didn't get the tables as full as you want, so you sacked the chef. Things take time. You cannot simply say, OK, well, he's had a couple of races, he hasn't done the job, we're dropping him. Mark Webber was on the radio with me last week. In the first seven years of his Grand Prix career, he made the podium twice. In the next five years, he made the podium 40 times. 40. It takes time. Red Bull have been shown to have absolutely no patience. I know they're under pressure, but we've lost the ability across a lot of elite sport to hover above things and say - actually it's gonna take a little bit of time. Imagine if we got rid of Graham Henry after the 2007 Rugby World Cup - we never would have had 2011. The same goes for Phoenix coach Giancarlo Italiano - they're calling for his head. And a year ago, he was top of the pops, having guided the 'Nix to their best ever finish. This drive for instant results is hurting players, drivers, coaches and everybody associated with elite sport, because those in charge simply can't see past the end of next week.
