There is a continuing controversy involving AFL umpire Nick Foot’s employment by Sportsbet, with questions being asked about some of Foot’s officiating calls in the Collingwood-Bulldogs game on the weekend, and whether they were in any way influenced by his association with the bookmaker.

If the buzz on Twitter is right then harness racing media star Brittany Graham is off to New Zealand in the new year to take up a leading role in the TAB Trackside presentation team. What a wonderful catch she is for the Kiwis, and a huge loss of our own. Brittany is an absolute […]

Andrew Rule is one person who certainly won’t be on Ben Melham and Jamie Kah’s Christmas card this year, after the pair blew up big time after reading a story about Kah penned by the award winning crime and racing writer that was published yesterday in the Sun Herald (see story below).

Given the comments that he has made that you can see under the picture at the top it should be immediately revoked. There is […]
Credit – Picture by Ian Currie Francesca Cumani’s ex-husband, former Australian polo captain Rob Archibald, obviously has a thing for slim, will0wy, posh English brunettes. How else do you explain his bouncing back from being dumped by Cumani by hooking up with Annabel Neesham? Archibald and Neesham have just announced they are entering into a […]
