Why sport Down Under will rise to the top in 2018
Absolutely no interest in the TV program mate, as a Big Bash cricket fan, it’s impossible to avoid the noise when every commercial break and in-game promos are being shoved down your throat, combined with the social media highlights.
You’re right on some level, the overarching story line piqued my interest enough to write!
I'm a boxing fan, get me out of here!
Hey Council, thanks for your feedback. With regard to your two comments and i’m paraphrasing, that I decided before the game I wouldn’t like it, is completely false, I love American Football and secondly that I dislike Americans, is completely false, I lived in Canada for two years and often visited the Unites States, again completely false.
However you’re entitled to your opinion and I thank you for your comment.
If the Super Bowl is the greatest show on Earth, why does it leave me hollow?
Once again bang on the money BigJ. Amir Khan received 400k pounds for his appearance on the british version last year. By the way mate would love to hear your thoughts on the upcoming heavyweight bouts. Significant action going on again there.

Hey mate, we’re all for charitable organisation and the wonderful work they do, certainly not here to cast any dispersion upon those organisations or those who raise funds through other means. The intent which I think is clearly conveyed is that reality television as a viewing spectacle is complete low-brow garbage, I’m sure the intentions are great but unfortunately it’s tarred with the Kardashian brush for me.
I'm a boxing fan, get me out of here!
Lets hope so. We need someone to carry the torch for Aus Boxing on the international stage.

Thanks BigJ. Shouldve phrased it better but the Argentinian cab driver was intended metaphorically as to Mundine and Green both exiting their prime and starting to fight or lose to fighters who werent considered in the upper echelon of the sport. Will clarify better next time.
I felt Mundine was extremely talented and couldve pushed harder for more quality opponents but he had a string in his middle years of fighting guys not on his level, and chasing local rivalries for the better pay day (cant blame him for wanting more money either). If Danny Geale was able to land fights with GGG and Cotto then Mundine could have.
I can hardly call a toddler a street sweeper so lets hope he doesnt read this article!
To be honest with you though at 42 i feel the only fight left for Mundine is with Horn. GGG and Canelo are way too far above his station for me. There would be many more lucrative options for them after their rematch. I also think its not a great idea for Mundine. Both men younger, genuinely heavy handed knock out artists whove been fighting a long list of tougher opponents for years. Cant see Mundine troubling either man at this stage in his career, and considering he was knocked down a few times by Josh Clottey it perhaps wouldnt be wise to seek out Canelo or GGG. His last fight was impressive but Tommy Browne is a far cry from the blue chip middleweights getting around at the moment.

Three things;
1. There’s no doubt in my mind that Lebron’s camp leaked the Golden State rumour. That’s such a LeBron play.
2. Not in 1 millions free agencies does LBJ end up in Milwaukee
3. He either re-ups on a one-year deal with Cleveland or he goes to Los Angeles and teams up with PG, thats it for me.

These venues are a great step foward for esports in Australia New Zealand.
Just to nitpick there Stirling, the AP changed ‘eSports’ to ‘esports’. Just FYI
Australia to get its first ever dedicated eSports venues through Hoyts and Gfinity
Tomic may never figure it out. We expect so much from our sports stars and for some they don’t have the unrelenting drive required to be a champion.
When will the penny drop, if ever, for Bernard Tomic?
I wouldn’t call it a snubbing, that’s a strong word. Dragic has the body of work to get the nod and his team has a better record.
NBA's Simmons snub a blessing in disguise
Terrible idea mate, who in their right mind would forgo big bash cricket to play a second X1 game. We know the problem exists, let’s set about figuring out how to adjust in the nets.
Why Australia needs an alternative red-ball series

We won 4-0, but where does our batting line up stand?
Hey Chris, very succinct analysis. I can’t really counter a point other than to say I wish i’d written your opinion as my closing paragraph!
We won 4-0, but where does our batting line up stand?
If we don’t get silver in 2020 – I’ll run naked across the Sydney harbour bridge.
