![Despite individual brilliance, Pakistan has not reached its full potential in Test cricket. They have made headlines of the wrong sort in their 57 years as a Test nation.

One might say, when Pakistanis play a match, can [...] Kersi Meher-Homji: Are the Pakistan cricket controversies really justified?](http://www.theroar.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/are-pakistan-cricketers-shoaib-malik-th.jpg)
![He lay prone on the ground. All 189cms of him was still, except for what looked like spasms as his legs lashed out in pain and alone, except for the suspicious looks from the 40,000 people who surrounded him.
“We’ve seen this before” they all thought. “He better get up before he gets substituted off like [...] Davidde Corran: The hypocrisy of referee criticism](http://www.theroar.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2009/05/respect-for-officials-missing-chelsea-drogba-th.jpg)
![Many long time fans of the European game will remember Ruud Hesp as the Barcelona custodian during the Louis van Gaal era in the late 1990s, when the Dutchmen teamed-up to win back-to-back La Liga titles and a Copa del Rey.
Hesp also featured in the Dutch national squad in a couple of major championships, at [...] Tony Tannous: Ruud reality: Verbeek needs to scatter his square lines](http://www.theroar.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/ruud-reality-pim-verbook-th.jpg)
![I’ve been in New York for over a week now and I haven’t heard the Big Apples’ Major League Soccer team, the New York Red Bulls, mentioned once, despite being one of the few local franchises currently in season.
Yet, like in Australia, there are signs the world game is thriving.

![On the 23rd of March 1895, on a grassy clearing in Northern London, a group of women gathered to make history. Few would notice, and even fewer cared. But history it was. A whistle was blown and 22 women played out the first recorded game of women’s football.
For the record, North London won 7-1 [...] Davidde Corran: Women’s football is finally back in business](http://www.theroar.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2009/04/womens-football-bompastor-sauerbrunn-th.jpg)
![To coincide with Saturday night’s historic first ever elite-level AFL match at Blacktown, Team GWS launched their search for a nickname and colours on the weekend. You may ask ‘what’s in a name?’, but for the AFL’s 18th club, it is one small part of forming an identity to engage the local community.

![Late last week, the South Dragons pulled out of the 2009/10 basketball season. A few days later, the Melbourne Tigers joined them. By that point, it seemed like finally someone in the sport had the foresight to say enough is enough. Pity it didn’t last.
Now Basketball Australia is forging ahead with the teams that didn’t [...] Michael DiFabrizio: Forget the bandaids, the NBL needs genuine reform](http://www.theroar.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2009/05/forget-bandaids-nbl-dragons-th.jpg)
![Having footy games broadcast live on TV has been a recurring topic this week. With two of this weekend’s finals – both featuring two Victorian teams – being shown on delay in Victoria, Geelong president Frank Costa kicked it off by pushing for all finals to be screened live.

![Pick one of the egg-shaped ball sports. A player has a kick for goal after the siren. If he makes it, they win, if he misses they lose. He misses and all and sundry do their best to say that the loss had nothing to do with this one kick.
