India might be beatable at home, but I don’t think this England team is the one to do it.

Nobody is under any illusions that wrestling is scripted, but it’s an incredibly athletic and physical form of entertainment with plenty of talking points worthy of discussion.
I’m not a big wrestling fan myself anymore (I used to be but have been a bit slack with it lately) but I really enjoyed this Daniel – keep up the good work mate!
I’ll be rooting for Jericho, incredible entertainer, very funny and a supreme athlete – deserves one.
Who can win the Royal Rumble 2017?

Duly noted.

I knew there was something missing in my life – I thought it might have been religion or some sort of deep spiritual hollowness, but now I realise it’s just been a lack of Warne-based news.
REPORTS: Shane Warne hasn't been in the news for nearly two weeks
He’s a big fan of baby blue sweaters and boat shoes, I hear.

Look, I’m inclined to agree with you – but my opinion is a little biased.

This is spectacular. Those down the line shots are out of control.

As always Dane, a hilarious and profoundly unhelpful response. Wouldn’t have it any other way.

My favourite article of the week, can’t wait to see the next one. (This one’s going gangbusters on our Facebook page in case you haven’t seen)

This is pretty spectacular.

Great piece, Max. Fascinating insight into a fast-emerging world that’s still quite foreign to a lot of us! Looking forward to reading more.

I can’t fathom how anyone could have watched the 2016 Finals series and come out thinking LeBron is a fraud. That is…truly baffling. Anyway, awesome article again Jay – the Cavs just seem to have an edge over the Warriors and I could never quite nut out exactly why – you’ve articulated it perfectly.
The Warriors need to embrace cavalier basketball to beat Cleveland
Ohhh yep, that’s a classic. Thankfully, there are no more than 4 Riordan’s in the entire world I’m pretty sure so chances of a pop culture reference are minimal.

Nick Kyrgios has got to be a shoe-in for biggest winner. He proved again that the man is a national treasure, and in my opinion, front-runner for Australian Of The Year..

“Faulkner is arguably the best all-rounder in Australia but seems to have been ‘friend-zoned’ into the short format categories despite his talent.”
Made my day.
What we talk about when we talk about all-rounders
In an ideal world, LBJ and the Cavs let the Grizzlies know beforehand so the fans are aware but at the end of the day, that’s the risk you take when you buy tickets. Coaches and players have a right to manage their players and that sometimes means the fans lose out which is a bit of a bummer, but you can’t win ’em all
LeBron James can play whenever he wants - deal with it
Thanks so much for writing this piece, Simon. Despite all the progress made, the issue of mental health in sport is still chronically misunderstood(the countless depression-based sledges at Buddy I heard throughout the season testament to this) and the more brilliantly articulated articles like this, the better.
Now I’m going to go off and download the Smiling Minds app – got into meditation a while ago and really enjoyed it until I started getting lazy, keen to give it another crack.

This is my favourite comment of 2016.

It would be un-Australian not to vote for Nick Kyrgios.
