1. Cricket. First Pakistan Perth Test. Really poor crowds, but genius batting by Warner on Day 1 set up the crushing win. He dominates when on fire. A duck in the second innings didn't help, but he had played his role. All out 89 by Pakistan is pretty poor. We love a win, but the crowds will suffer this summer. A bad, inconsistent pitch really did not help. This could have cricket back to the WACA sooner than ever. Dangerous moments.
Mitchell Marsh had a top test - 90, 65no and a wicket and a catch too. A duck or a hundred man however. The MOTM on his home deck!
Nathan Lyon, the GOAT killed them with 500 Test wickets. 501 now and 18 behind Courtney Walsh. McGrath on 563 and Warnie 708 lie ahead.
Starc sneaks along to 338 wickets at 27.49 as well. His strike rate is better than almost every pace bowler in history - except Pat Cummins. He is forging a highly impressive career. Josh Hazelwood and Pat Cummins have both hit 242 Test wickets. Four very impressive bolwers really.
2. Mitchell Johnson. With an opportunity to smile and accept that he was all about motivation... and bury the hatchet with Warner, Johnson doubles down with a cranky, silly display on TV. Honestly. He was hard to like as a player - harder now. He has made a goat of himself... goatee and all.
3. Damien Oliver, the Melbourne jockey rode a peach on Munhamek to win in WA in a race named after him. This ends his career - known as the GOAT as well! Over 20,000 rides as well. Awesome. The most Group 1 wins ever for Australian horse racing.
4. Ange Postocoglou. Clawing it all back now with a couple of good wins for Tottenham v Newcastle and Nottingham. Still a phenomenal effort and talk of having him lead Man City is phenomenal. Everton now move to 16 points, even with 10 points taken off them...a great year for them this season too. Everton, Brighton, Bournemouth lie ahead for Ange. We will see what they are made of here.
Ange is our GOAT of football managerial prowess.... with a goatee. No risk there.
5. Jarome Luai. Great luck to him. Top money, but I am not so sure he is worth that much. I like how Penrith show no emotion and will replace him too. Tigers may not land him yet, despite the media... Bulldogs? They have the salary cap sombrero now!
6. Eddie Jones. "Come here and say it"... He has truly made a complete embarrassment of himself in view of all the media denials. Sad... and has made a complete goat of himself. Eddie will need to grab his blue jumper and hit the high road.
