Didn’t Caleb Ewan come second in the road race?
True observation though – OGE’s Nats strategy was all at sea without Gerro
No Gerrans, no party for Orica-GreenEDGE
Unacceptable… but not surprising. Clarkey has heart but the Herald Sun Tour definitely ain’t easy. I’m laying my balls on the line and saying OGE might come away with a high finish, but no more…

Agreed. Channel Nine’s coverage was woeful. But as pointed out recently, at least one of the big networks is taking an interest. Slowly slowly.
Nine things we learned from the Tour Down Under
Provocative article Ronan, and I tend to agree.
An important addendum is that test cricketers must also be able to field.
Oh and I still can’t understand why Joe Burns (who is a half decent fielder but hardly our best catcher) was plonked in at bat pad for the last two tests. Was it some sort of initiation ritual for the new kid? Dumb.
Test bowlers must be able to bat
I was under the impression that the pitches would hold together this year (more than normal) as they all need to survive right through the World Cup?
Australian pitches have been too generous to India
Good squad and right on the money methinks.
Pattinson might be a late addition given how he bowled the other night too.
The Big Show’s form is not great but they’ll pick him for X factor anyway (clearly the world needs more switch hits, ramp shots and reverse sweeps). Not sure who’d they would replace him with if they don’t pick ‘im…
2015 Cricket World Cup: My Australian XI and squad
Will the UCI actually boot out Astana though? Or just fine them and go from there? Will the UCI have the balls to have a go? Let’s hope they do, even if just for 6 months.
Groundhog Day at Astana HQ: Vinokourov to star in classic comedy remake
Yes. Great move. Though what about those who have been charged but then had it thrown out – ala Rogers and Impey?
The Taiwan KOM Challenge: All former suspended riders declined entry
Going to be very interesting to watch Tinkoff dynamics next year. So much talent in one team and so many conflicting pursuits…
Six key transfers ahead of the 2015 cycling season
Yes. Yes yes and yes. Already the thoughts are more about forgetting the Debacle in Dubai and Annhiliation in Abu Dhabi, and onto Brisbane. It’s like a collective ‘woopsie’ and off we go again.
Great article Geoff. Oh and thanks for the Roar Radio action too – if only the sound quality was as awesome as the commentary!
Australia deserved a spanking for disrespecting Pakistan
Can’t help but feel that Astana will get a slap in the wrist amidst promises to change their ways. I’m cynical though…
Astana: Three strikes and you're out
Any ideas on where Cam Wurf is going? Always love reading his straight-from-the-heart blog posts
Follow the money: Team name and roster changes for 2015
Good concept. All it would take would be two teams to force all riders to sign up to such a program and then it would all flow on from there. Maybe one of the (apparently tough on doping) French teams might be the place to start?
Instead of punishing dirty cyclists, should we reward the clean?
Puzzling. McGee is normally a straight shooter so seems very odd…
The surprising thing about the Under-23 World Time Trial Championships
Great words Felix. The Vuelta delivers an engaging contest again!
Vuelta 2014: Vintage Contador has ungainly Froome reeling
Agree with Michael. Rain + truly crap place to watch AFL = average crowd.
Buddy stars as Swans beat Dockers
Great article Tom. It was such a loss for him to have to drop out of the tour.
Tour's loss, Vuelta's Gain: Michael Matthews
Great foresight Adam and great to see Robert pull through and win it!
Little Italy: Aussie cycling's new home
The Swans can absolutely afford him – O’Keefe and LRT won’t get new contracts plus Malcelski will be classed as a veteran next year (with all the benefits that brings.
The only question is how much will be offered…
Who should recruit Nick Malceski?
Outside chance at a podium for sure. Heck he might even take the jersey for a few days. Should be a great race too. I’m excited.
Is Cadel back in the hunt for the Vuelta?
Agree on Lyon – he looked quite dangerous playing domestic short format last summer. Smart cricketer too.

There’s loads of question marks about Cam Meyer really, especially with the Yates boys working it and Robert Power et al in the wings.
Does Cameron Meyer need a win?
