I would love to see Ponga in the centres and Hammer wing in attack with Ponga swapping to wing in defence. Kick returns to Ponga and Walsh would be very exciting and make a lot of issues for NSW.
re the forwards agree with most on here Collins and Flegler as props, Carrigan at 13. Cotter to start 2nd row for one of Fifita or Nanai with the other on after 25 or so. Hopgood a definite for bench, other between Mo , Welch and maybe we could persuade big Pappa out for one for run.
Injury-hit Maroons won’t panic over Origin selections but just sit back and laugh at Blues’ hullabaloo
The ashes are hyped out here but other than 2011 have been a farce for 40 years now. Poms get flogged and its over 3 tests in. and will happen again in 2 years time.
Australia vs India: A stronger Test rivalry than the Ashes down under in recent times?
Well said Blink- i happened to be watching and I thought it might have been touched at the kick or even in the marking contest- the head touch was a big surprise to me when the slowed it down.
Re the captains challenge and other video- PLEASE NO- they are a pain in the backside and the incompetence of the AFL (witness the ARC idiocy over and over again) will make the perecieved problem worse. Video is good for things like run outs in cricket, feet touching the line in nrl etc and absolutely crap for everything else in every sport.
Love to whinge about the latest umpiring shocker? That's exactly what the AFL wants from you
And how good to see that fine upstanding long term women’s rights campaigner Jos Verstappen defending the woman involved. What a man.
F1's state of disrepute a much-needed wake-up call to the powers that be
And now after years of VAR incompetence a single call goes against Liverpool and its a crisis.
Its been rubbish from the start. its broken and a blight on the game.
What the EPL?!: Pundits bash 'crazy', 'naive' Ange, as coach sticks to his guns amid 9-man VAR chaos
They are two different products.
Its like saying if the NRL can sell out Origin then why cant it sell out a club game.
If the Matildas can draw sell-out crowds, why can't the A-League Men?
geez the great job getting through COVID is a bit old isn’t it?
Every other sport in the world (maybe accept the Latvian Flea racing league) got through COVID fine. Most of them completing a season without joke rules and changing the entire game time etc.
Gil would have still been waiting for Andrew’s permission to go back to work if the NRL hadn’t moved.
As for why he has stayed on there were massive rumours he was going to be the Brisbane Olympics CEO- thankfully not.
Inept in every facet
TOM MORRIS: The AFL's hierarchy is in shambles - and it's nothing less than a failure of governance
Why Not Allan Border for christs sake.
Maxwell- about as credible in red ball cricket- why do people have an obsession with him in the test team? He’s less useful as a bowler than Smith or Head and at no point in his career was a test standard batsman/person. but at 33 with bugger all red ball cricket he will be fine.
Maybe Kerry O’Keefe could play?
Maxwell smart left-field option worth considering for a spin if Aussies want to strengthen lower order all round
Ole Damo Barrett is really a clown.
won’t promote the game “doing press conferences 10 minutes apart”
Um so like every week Damo.
Actually I take it back clowns can be entertaining- if he was 8 times as intelligent as he is he wouldn’t make it to being a halfwit.
AFL News: Clarkson to take separate flight from Tasmania after Hawks clash due to ongoing racism investigation
Yes they can beat Cuba- not the best Cuban team ever.
and to the guy below who says we need to beat a baseball nation- we did Korea- very strong.
Shocking the world: How Australia made baseball history
Cotter 11/10
Maroons player ratings: 9.9 'absolute dynamo' and 51-tackle rookie forward 'built for Origin'
Well color me surprised. The bloozers whining about the ref when they lose. So surprising.
Blues coaches carrying on like 'fiery pit bulls' need to acknowledge game 3 was a dog's breakfast
At least umpires coach and mro official Chris Scott has cleared the decision so why is their controversy?
'How do you miss that?' Did this last-gasp 'howler' cost Brisbane the game?
Hawthorn will appeal any suspension.
Lachie Neale suggests what ban to give Gary Rohan after getting whacked
He should have been nowhere near the team in the 4th test. Was dreadful in the 3rd test and looked tired and out of ideas.
He also when struggling has horrible body language.
Doesn’t mean he’s been a bad player overall though and he still deserves a general first team spot. Just so obvious he should have been rotated for 4th test -what is the point of our great fast bowling depth when we never use it?
The stupid we are cricket we don’t rotate ends in the gross stupidity of an injured Ryan Harris playing the last 2 pointless tests vs the Poms and breaking down shortly after ending his career- but hey we avoided that rotation didnt we.
Is Mitchell Starc lucky to still be playing Test cricket?
This years bloozer excuse.
Should Josh Addo-Carr have been awarded a penalty try in controversial end to Origin 3?
Thank you TMU for the comment re the pressure gauge- my thoughts exactly. since its not explained the “magic formula” it is always used as if its authoritative yet its meangingless to me.
Thoughts and observations: Gold Coast vs Essendon
Introduce last touch out of bounds rule:
if that rule comes in I for one wont watch the sport until its gone. so the spoil over the line will be a free? Please. you will have endless piddly handballs into oncoming players legs, players refusing to try to take the ball as they will be waiting for the free.
if it was a clean disposal rule (ie handball, kick) with no worries on the idiotic “deliberate now doesn’t require it to be intentional” concept we have now I would be supportive. If you kick it out its a free.
Umpiring in 2020: Why are we getting angry and how can we fix it?
Agree 100% Mary- you have a full year and 2 tournaments- India’s development can only benefit (as it has in the mens game) with exposure to the best players. Why have them at common time? Makes no sense
Women's IPL a squandered opportunity
Thats why Free kick Hawthorn is the call- not free kicks.
Believe it or not, more free kicks for Hawthorn won't fix footy
Well done for speaking out Wes- great to see the stigmatisation of mental health removed- especially told by people who have at least temporarily recovered. a beacon of hope for those suffering that it can get better.
He also looked very impressive in what I saw of him. Not just a plodder who got wickets.
All the best to him.
Wes Agar reveals his mental health battle
The shrug as used by Selwood (and copied by plenty of others) is nothing more than an attempt to draw a free kick. there is no natural motion that sees your arm go over 90 degrees you are deemed to have caused the contact and play on. The long stride to lower the body is a different matter.
It is a near tragedy that a great player like Selwood has these questions as it does affect opinion of an all time great.
Also I would add if you agree with mark Robinson or Jon Ralph on anything re-think your position- hard to tell which is dumb and which is dumber.
Joel Selwood’s unwanted contribution to the AFL
They may not have much to complain about but it won’t stop them. Whiney little things they are
