Always back the horse named self-interest, son. It'll be the only one trying
I’ve just watched the Spain v Belgium quarter final at the World Cup . Ole ole won, Asterix lost. But we all learned something. The bullfighters are brilliant. But they can’t beat the frogs. They don’t have the temperament. If only they were Swiss in the brain, and bullfighter in the heart and body they […]
Paraguay. Stuck in the middle of nowhere surrounded by countries who can actually play soccer like Brazil and Argentina, and the gangster state Bolivia too. What hope did they ever have? About the same as they have about beating the Socceroos. Nil and Buckley’s. $4.20 Australia to win? Who are they kidding? Just get on.
The Naked Tipster has chimed in with a supplementary bed bet for the morning. Australia’s horse racing mad favorite tipster has three other main passions in life and punting and Monty, her beautiful looking yearling by Extreme Warrior. Sex, sport and the great nation of Australia. But she is no fan of septic tanks. […]
Mary Fowler is absolutely beautiful. And talented, and sweet, and rich, and loving, and loyal, and kind, and everything else good in a person too. She is a prize off the top shelf. Nathan Cleary won her. God only knows how. Talk about punching above your weight. I wish I was him. If only Mary […]
You’re about to see something special tonight. Reece Walsh is coming off the bench, but he’s coming, don’t you worry about that. And he is going to rip Origin 2 apart. Walsh did it in the Broncos run home and in the Grand Final. Tonight he is going to do it again. In a few […]
They might have scored a draw in Gallipoli with the home ground advantage, but the Turks were never going to knock us off on neutral turf. $5.50. The bookies were kidding themselves. Xmas came early. Get on the Japanese to knock off the clog wearers at $3.60 in the morning too. The Dutch are all […]
You learn a lot from great sporting coaches. About life, sport, success and yourself. Golden State Warriors NBA coach Steve Kerr is probably the greatest coach of any sport in the 21st century. He is also a very good and interesting bloke. It is well worth listening to what he has to say. Story by […]
What Steph Curry does on the court is more readily appreciable. How do you compare him with Jordan? He’s an incredible leader. Michael was an incredible leader himself, but it’s an entirely different approach. I mean, Steph’s compassion for his teammates, his joy in life, his joy for celebrating everybody else’s accomplishments is so powerful. […]
You mentioned the strong draft class. Can you talk about the challenge of drafting well? You can’t predict a guy’s personality. You can try. Our front office does these personality tests, we sit down and have lunch with them—but you don’t really know. You can’t. And you ask people, you ask their trainer, you ask […]
Sam Kerr is a genius. She could play in the men’s English Premier League no problem at all. Watch her winning Goal against China on Tuesday night. See how she passes the ball, bolts, and points to the spot where to pass her the ball? Then goes bang! Watch the two goals at the end, […]
