Stay out of my way. Or you'll pay. LISTEN to what I say.

There are concussions, GOAT discussions and Super Bowl repercussions, as some of the NFL’s biggest names go head-to-head on Monday.
Look, I know we are enjoying summer at the beach, watching the cricket and haven’t turned the corner on Australia Day yet. But there is something we need to discuss: just like objects in your car’s wing mirror, which may be “closer than they appear”, so too is the start of the 2021 rugby season.
After a Super Wild Card weekend, we are now down to the final four.
The playoff spots and top 18 draft spots are signed, sealed and delivered.
Playoff and top draft positions sorted, coach firings, a butt fumble recovery and more bizarre occurrences in the final week of regular season action.
Seven playoff spots are up for grabs in each NFL conference and there is only one week to go. It’s coming down to the wire.
There were records, upsets and the throw of the year. With one week left until the playoffs, where are we at?
With the NFL playoffs just around the corner, teams are still jockeying for seeding as we enter Week 16.
NFL games on Thursday, Sunday, Monday and Tuesday made for a football buffet this week. So, who rumbled, bumbled or stumbled?
Plenty of playoff previews this week, with a stack of points scored, as well as a lot of big plays being made on defense. Who’s hot and who’s not?
In a rugby league season with no international matches having taken place, it made a lot of sense to name a Kangaroos merit team to celebrate what could have been in a more normal year.
Reaction has been swift and varied to shock reports that James O’Connor has reportedly approached the Chiefs about playing in Super Rugby Aotearoa next year.
Week 13 in the NFL proved to be unlucky for game schedulers, teams with zero losses or wins and Carson Wentz. So, how do they stack up?
Long waits, strange results, coach firings and COVID calamity – here’s this week’s run down.
Overtime thrillers, the catch of the year (twice) and a season obituary – this is what you came for.
Before Argentina’s first-ever victory over the All Blacks, a lot of people already knew that Argentine captain Pablo Matera was a baller.
In Week 10 of the NFL, there were some huge special-teams plays, the play of the year and suddenly everyone is 6-3?! What is going on here?
There were close games, brilliant plays and a couple of shock twists. This is getting interesting…
A slew of upsets, windy weirdness and more rookies excelling. Let’s get it!
The scene was set on a wet and wild Sydney evening for the third instalment of the 2020 Bledisloe Cup to set international rugby alight.
CHOO-CHOOO!!!
Super Rugby’s hype train is rollin’…
Bloody awesome breakdown @Jez, especially given the lack of announced squads for certain teams.
Any word on why these squad announcements are so late?
Seems to me if you’re trying to compete, it will be extremely tough if the Aus squads are only announced when NZ sides are already knee-deep in pre-season training??
How do the Super Rugby AU squads stack up?
Chiefs v Bucs Superbowl
Brady v Mahomes
This could be something special 😊
Who will be number one? NFL conference championships
YES!!!
Can’t wait for it – LET’S GET THE HYPE TRAIN ROLLING!
🏉 🏉 🏉
Super Rugby is actually super close
Mate, I could not agree more with that – def too early to start.
I would be even MORE excited if it started later (as would a lot of people), but I wanted to get us all up to speed (and maybe even a little bit amped), cos there’s really not much else being put out there for it 😔
Super Rugby is actually super close
Maybe NZR should’ve just renamed them OVERLORDS??
Cos, as much as it pains me to say – I think you’re right Paulo. 😔
Super Rugby is actually super close
I hear ya!
Pretty curious about the whole situation myself, so I’ll do some digging and see what I can track down…
Super Rugby is actually super close
There was certainly something about the footage of Ben sitting on the bench looking with Pouncey. Looked like he’d just seen the end of his career. But then again, that could’ve just been the lighting (can’t trust anything these days!).
See Philly gave Doug Pederson the flick too?!
Good job, I think he set fire to a number of things in that last game…..including his contract 👎
Who will be number one? NFL wild card round
I’m a little bit afraid of the Ravens. I know they’d have to do it from the ‘outside lane’, but it looks like Harbaugh is getting them going at just the right time.
Hope they don’t though – I’ll cheer for the Chiefs to repeat, cos Mahomes is just amazing. If not them – maybe the Bills?
Who will be number one? NFL wild card round
Go, Christos and the Browns!!!
I need to issue a CORRECTION too sorry team – the Colts are playing Buffalo NOT Tennessee 😱
Wish I could say I was writing before my morning coffee….but…. I don’t even drink coffee!
Anyways, glad that’s off my conscience, enjoy the wild card round 😂 😂
NFL power rankings: Week 17
Yeah, gotta love the conference system sometimes.
Really worked a treat in Super Rugby 🏉 👎

Cheers Paul!
Good to know someone’s still reading 😂 😂
RE: tackling, it sounds like you’ve been watching too many Falcons games 🤢 🤢
NFL power rankings: Week 17
I applaud you and all of Bills Mafia! 👍
Have you been quietly suppressing a love of jumping on tables too?? 😂 😂
If so, this could be YOUR year on both fronts…
NFL power rankings: Week 15
Yeah before he was fun to watch and now he’s awesome AND fun to watch! Looking forward to seeing what they can do in the playoffs. Also, if you’re happy to take Matty Ice, then please do! 😂 😂
NFL power rankings: Week 14
Razor will be breakdancing in his lounge tonight 😂 😂
There's no way around it anymore – Ian Foster must go
Would love to see the Bengals come good!
He’s developing a nice combo with rookie Tee Higgins too.
Hope they use the draft and free agency to build a fortress of an O-Line…maybe flip AJ Green for some value as well?
Joe Burrow is the future for Cincinnati
Bit late on this, as just stumbled upon your article now and boyyyy is there some emotion in there!
Just want to say that I appreciate it, as I am a tragic Falcons fan too and, well, you just don’t see much stuff written about our Derty Birds.
So thank you and I hope you’re doing better after this week’s win!
What are the Atlanta Falcons doing!?
Thanks Willie!
Not really sure what to make of your Eagles. To pay Carson big dollars, then draft Jalen Hurts – what’s your your thinking on their thinking there?
NFL power rankings: week 8
Hoping the Bills v Titans game goes ahead, so we can start clearing this up! 😂
NFL power rankings: Week 4
Had to also put my Falcons at 30 too, sorry JGK.
That hurts 😢 😢
NFL power rankings: Week 4
GB seem pretty good so far. Would be great for the Seahawks to play the Packers, but haven’t seen any match up on the schedule…
Bummer about the Titans v Steelers game this week – that could’ve solved some problems
NFL power rankings: Week 3
It’s gonna be a long season Paul, but – at this stage – any gifts of grief are gratefully accepted! 😂 😂
NFL Power Rankings: Week 1
Thanks for the in-depth reply Davico!
Never really know when you put stuff out there, if anyone will actually notice – but you most definitely did!
I’d basically used last year’s finishing order, then moved teams based on their drafts/offseason and moreso week 1 results, so figured a four-slot drop for the 49ers seemed fair, but you know, different strokes and all that…
Glad to know at least someone will be tuning in anyway, so will see how much offence I can cause next week! hahaha
NFL Power Rankings: Week 1
Life is just so unfair sometimes 😂 😂
