The French have no interest in promoting anything Celtic, as I understand it. Cornwall could be a starter though.

How the Celtic League could be truly Celtic

T20 has captured the public imagination and introduced cricket to a new demographic. Crowds are even turning up to watch country club matches, which was previously unheard of.

Within five years I can envisage a 12-team club competition being Australia’s premier summer drawcard, with fewer ODIs being played.

Big Bash to be Australia's favourite competition

Lions did well in recruiting and Michael Voss obviously has a plan. I rate him highly enough to wait and see before passing judgment.

Will Jonathon Brown be singing My Fevola?

Forget code wars, rugby union has a huge latent following that’s slipped recently in terms of attendances and TV ratings while Australian teams perform badly.

Expect this to bounce back quickly when the Wallabies improve and if Australian teams do better in the Super 14/15. The Victorian team will give a massive lift to the sport in 2011 and boost TV ratings with the increased number of derbies.

I thought this was a joke at first too. My Australian nominee would be Allan Border, if he’s prepared to accept.
