Sportswriters Brett McKay and Ryan O’Connell are battling with their tipping and playing rookie court reporters in Episode 65 of the Cheap Seats podcast.
Within hours of last week’s podcast going live, Karmichael Hunt had his day in court on drugs charges, admitted his guilt, and copped his various penalties. But were the penalties enough?
And what of the current and former Gold Coast Titan players on the same cocaine supply charges? And should they be allowed to play, since they’ve been bailed to re-appear in May?
Daly Cherry-Evans announced his decision to leave Manly in the sheds to his teammates immediately after Manly’s opening round loss, so his head must’ve been clear. We suspect this isn’t the end of this saga. Likewise, the seemingly high number of charges coming out of the NRL round.
#AskTheCheapSeats included some very valid questions on the NBL finals (remember the NBL?), cricket commentators, Matt Toomua the Wallaby, and the death of home-ground advantage.
Plus, there’s also proper wraps of Super Rugby, the Cricket World Cup (including England’s demise) and a Cheap Seats Tipping League update – which you can still join.
Get us on Twitter at @CheapSeatsPod and get your questions in for next week using the tag #AskTheCheapSeats.
And stay cheap!
