Yep, I noticed the pattern of far stronger Commodores this year. I was just assuming Will & Anton at DJR might take 3-4 rounds to find their groove before seriously pushing for wins. But then the other Tickford guys apart from Waters have been nowhere near pushing for podiums, so it is a curious situation.

You’re pretty naive then. If you look across the spectrum of sports, you can see how well we do. For goodness sake, we were runners up in our second Asian Cup and won the third one we competed in.

But the poms are the worst at overhyping themselves. I think they’re a bit more modest these days.
Winning isn’t easy, sure agreed.

To be fair Chris, I guess it’s not relevant how a car becomes lapped if they decide on the unlapping process. It’s just the notorious good luck that Hamilton seems to have, he so often seems to get a lucky break he doesn’t deserve!

Andre Russell…the West Indian cricketer Chris? What was he doing driving in an F1 GP? 😛

There’s a possibility he might get injured at some stage. So we just elevate the VC…who is Lyon I think?

It’s something about a grass banked venue and suburban/village setting. The kiwis seem to have a similar idea, with tests at smaller venues with grass banks selling well (Christchurch tests sell well with the new cricket specific ground over the rugby stadium that was destroyed), but Auckland rarely getting a test as people don’t like watching it at the rugby stadium: Eden Park (that the kiwis pretend the playing field is big enough for cricket! 😛 ). Apparently they want to build a cricket specific facility in Auckland to host tests.

Hey Jeff, how does that schedule work out? Australia was supposed to host the 2020 T20WC which has been delayed to this year…but now India are hosting it? How did that work out?!

I mean we would be winning world cups, or at least making finals, semi-finals, quarter finals etc regularly. Australia thrives on competition. We’re usually top ten at the olympics, finished #4 at one olympics, were Asian cup runners up at our second attempt, won it at our third attempt. After 32 years out, we made the knockout round at our second FIFA world cup when most pundits were saying we’d be lucky to draw any games in our pool.

The NFL & NBA are completely ring fenced…pretty much like these clubs are trying to do here with this proposed ESL.

Well, that’s the global appeal of soccer isn’t it. What that shows me is that if soccer was culturally dominant in Australia, then we would be a global powerhouse.

Despite their cultural dominance, they haven’t been able to get one other country to play that sport to any significant degree. Even here it’s just an oddity. And this is a country that has basketball and baseball: sports that have significant popularity outside the US.
