Always back the horse named self-interest, son. It'll be the only one trying
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, […]
What a game. What a win. What a team. Anyone who doesn’t love the Matilda’s is totally un-Australian. They should be deported. Same Kerr should be PM. Ellie Carpenter her Deputy. Katrina Gorry the Minister for Defence. Mary Fowler the Minister for Sport. I love footy. But this was the best game I’ve seen all […]
I love the Matildas and have backed them to win this game currently underway against China. But what’s with these uniforms? They look like the bloody All Black Australian teams wear green and gold. Full stop. Anything else is sacreligious. Ho! As I am writing it Super Sammy has just scored! Out of nothing! A […]
So Zac Lomax has signed a Super Rugby contract with the duddest side in the comp the Western Force, who haven’t finished better than 8th in the last 5 seasons. And the clown who took the fake money to join the cornflakes box R360 comp against PVL’s best advice thinks it’s going to give him […]
The National Golf Club is Victoria’s most prestigious, a member’s only outfit that is harder to get into than Mother Teresa. This member of the club referred to in the extract at the top apparently shat himself in the car park and then proceeded to the locker room, leaving a poo trail there and all […]
We have all seen this before, but some things are timeless and worth watching again and again. Warnie baiting Jacques Kallis with balls pitched down leg, taunting the South African, and then reeling him in like a fish is one of them. The art of deception at its very finest. Well bowled Shane! Gee we […]
