Always back the horse named self-interest, son. It'll be the only one trying
Here are some extracts from last week’s story giving you our early predictions for the Soccer World Cup. We’re going alright at present. Australia will not win a game in Qatar, and unless a miracle happens they won’t even manage a draw. A first round knockout is an absolute certainty. Graeme Arnold is the most […]
We’re up a goal against the frogs after just 11 minutes. It would be a brave punter who’d back us to stay there, but who cares? We’ve scored the first goal! When’s the last time France won a war without us? We didn’t let let Hitler waltz into Sydney and take over our country did […]
Saudi Arabia were $29 to beat Argentina, in a two horse race. Should any team ever be $1.01 in a head to head match. When you are the Argies playing the 2nd lowest rated team in the tournament, probably. Don’t worry Messi and the boys. Ajax got beaten at 40-1 on too.
This is the Bolt For Brilliance, the famous Kiwi end to end and off and away Test Match nude run. How many Aussie streakers get the other end of the birthday suit dash without tackled or shoulder charged? Not many, if any. Brad Reid did. He bred the champion trotter that’s named after his seminal […]
Alex Pereira had twice before beaten Israel Adesanya in kickboxing (via a controversial decision in 2016 and knockout in 2017), but that is far different sport to Mixed Martial Arts, and in the Octagon Izzy was king, the second best pound for pound fighter in any weight division in the world. That’s why the young […]
Now my great-great grandfather died for our country on the Western Front on Anzac Day 2018, a battle that many say won the war, so I am as patriotic as anyone in this beautiful wide brown land, and probably a whole lot more. After all, this direct line ancestor is one of the about 800 […]
Everything you need to know about the racism in AFL is on show before the investigation into serious allegations of institutional racism and abuse at Hawthorn even begin. Just in case you missed it, a number of indigenous men who played at Hawthorn have made deeply disturbing claims about the way they were treated at […]

Most of it is being directed at the French ref Mathieu Raynal over his controversial decision to award a penalty against Bernard Foley for running down the clock in the final minute. That […]
Forgive me a personal moment, but this is my grand-daughter Lilly. This evening she won the award as Kuranda’s best player in the under 7’s. Good on ya Lil! Seeds don’t fall far from trees. Her mother is a Queen after all. As for his grandfather? That shunt? Just ask N. Jack about him.
“As an old net withers, another is remade.” – Maori Proverb That one is right. But when it comes to rugby, the one below is wrong. The days of Chiefs coaching All Blacks teams are over. It’s up to the Crusader to come and save his country. Scott Robertson. Now is your time.
