1. Ashes Thanks. Nothing like a mediocre Sri Lankan bowler to get you on the plane for the Ashes. A few blokes should be visiting shrines in that country when they retire...Joe (Carpet) Burns, Travis (Jimmy) Head, Kurtis Patterson and even Tim Paine...throw in the modern day Graeme Wood - Usman Khawaja (hands like a sundial) and even Mitchell Starc and the travel agent can get to work.
Put a line through Labaschagne and Marcus Harris might just be too reckless. He needed a big score to consolidate opinion on his merits. He has opened the door now.
2. BBL. How long can a cop go on for? Ridiculous. Just trying too hard to kill the goose which lays the golden egg. The Thunder have no brains. They bat too skinny and a couple of wickets lost early and they are all at sea. How bad has Sangha looked? He needs to head back to the drawing board. Whoever signed Devich from New Zealand to the Thunder needs a pay rise. A terrible acquisition who has basically done nothing for anyone.
3. Super Bowl. The big game is tomorrow morning Sydney time. What a cracking game it will be. The younger LA Rams v the hard headed Tom Brady and the New England Patriots. Sensational strategy and skill at play. It is some sort of event. Minus 20 in New England this weekend just gone so they will be glad they are playing in Atlanta.
4. Western Sydney Wanderers. They are now playing to remove the coach. Pathetic. Losing by 5 goals is abysmal. Popovich got out of there at the right time. They need to develop talent and fast otherwise their new stadium will remain empty.
5. Davis Cup. Great that the team won without Tomic and the other goose. It would be great if everyone ignored the two of them forever more. Tennis is on fire at present following the Australian Open and Djokovic's sensational play.
6. Greg Chappell. What about that? He resigns from the Australian cricket selector role... in six months. He needed to go straight away. Again he holds this strange power over everyone and just continues to get his own way all the time. Odd.
7. Todd Greenberg. Strange days when someone (Ben Barba) gets punted on the strength of a casino CCTV. Clearly Greenberg's embarrassment over a similar matter at the Dogs some years back, has got him hopping this time. Is it too much to put into a contract that casinos and niteclubs are out? Most issues start there. Great they will weed out blokes of ill repute and poor behaviour. Some clubs may lose most of their first grade squad!
8. NRL Pre Season. I've heard that Parramatta has been training the house down and never looked fitter. Just waiting for the photo on the back page of The Advertiser of the new recruits and all the new tats.
