Always back the horse named self-interest, son. It'll be the only one trying
Paul Gallen is well known as one of the most money hungry punters in the world of sport. Which is what brought Gallen back to the ring at the age of 45 the other night to take on the mad arsed, much younger giant Nelson Asofa-Solomona. Gal was dash, dash chasing the cash. The bloke […]
Ka Ying Rising was the Mike Tyson of the racing world. The superstar of the sport, an equine athlete who couldn’t be beaten by anyone. Or so we all thought. Tyson entered the ring in Tokyo against Buster as the $1.02 favourite, with Douglas at $47.00 to beat him. When Tyson knocked Buster down and […]
The news that Tevita Pangai Jr wants to return to Rugby League makes me remember back to the time when the highly talented but ill-disciplined forward walked away from the sport to become a boxer.
