Episode description

Everyone wants the war to end says Thomas Bach the International Olympic Committee President, as the IOC decides to wait to see what happens with international sport before deciding whether Russia and Belarus athletes can compete at Paris 2024 and Milano Cortino 2026. They would have to be neutral athletes, no teams, and no affiliation or support for Putin or the army. So what are the Olympic waiting for? To see whether like tennis, this stance can work in sport across the world during this summer. Anything but Footy rounds up a hectic and difficult week for the Olympic movement and we hear from Bach too. In our news from the games there's athletics, judo, para swimming and tennis and will Olympic champion Adam Peaty be back in the pool for Paris? As he admits he's not loving swimming at the moment.
