1. Kurtley Beale. What a saga! The whole Ewan McKenzie thing is joke too. It is hard to fathom that the great Link would allow this to happen. The sudden resignation of this Di Patston was met with condemnation by some female sports writers too...giving them a bad name. Rebecca Wilson savaged her. What a shock it was however to read about the fact that some Wallabies have too much to say and are too precious! Stunned!
2. V8's - Bathurst. Never thought I'd ever say this, but the last five minutes of the 160 lap coverage were rivetting. Whincup on the charge...petrol nearly gone...passed in the last straight. Royal Commission pending...Mostert/ Morris...winners!
3. NSW Cricket. On fire. A cracking start to the Gillette/ McDonalds/ ING/ FAI/ Mercantile Mutual/ Ford Ranger/ Ryobi/ Matador BBQ's...This Ben Rohrer has Australian ODI rep player stamped on him...so too Ryan Carters...superb both under pressure.
4. Super League Grand Final. A win for the Nathan Brown (next NRL coach when the first bloke is sacked in 2015) by St Helens, but how about the actions of Ben Flower punching Lance Hohaia...outrageous and at least a twelve month ban after king hitting then punching him while he was knocked out and motionless. Absolutely gutless actions and should have been killed by the St Helen's forwards. Where were they?
4. San Francisco Giants leading the Cardinals 1-0. Kansas City Royals leading the Baltimore Orioles 2-0. Best of 7. Could be a show down of the 'wild card' teams...Giants v Royals. This is like 7 v 8 playing an NRL GF!
5. Federer beat Djokovic in the Shanghai Masters...There is life in him yet! Even rarer...Sam Stosur won the Japan Open. Not heavily subscribed by top players, but easy cash....
6. Swimming. What is doing there? Phelps has now cracked. Get your kids out of the sport and keep them sane. It's all that staring at a black line..it isolates, it confounds and it makes them implode ultimately...think Brooksy, Perkins, Hackett, Thorpe, Heugill, Rice, Magnussen even Leisel Jones, Hayley Lewis, Grant Kenny's wife, ...the ugly ones seem to stay sane. Think Big Red., Janelle Elford, Petria Thomas...or maybe they are media targets?...wedding breakups, childless couples, sexuality, drugs...they are in the spotlight.
7. Sad to see Nathan Blacklock meet depression head on. Always seemed like a quiet and highly talented player. He's bouncing back well!
