The @AusJillaroos have been walking out with the TSI and Aboriginal flags literally for years. Either you've never watched women's rugby league before now, or have only decided to care about it now because you've decided it's the controversy du jour

One team, one flag, one anthem: It’s time to keep politics out of footy dailytelegraph.com.au/news/n… via @dailytelegraph
"Why should X happen?"
"Why SHOULDN'T X happen?"
"Well I'm asking you."
"Well I'm asking YOU."
Dynamic sports debate.
Genuine questions for anyone taking this culture war slop seriously:
-What if a player takes an emotional quiet moment of reflection instead of singing?
-Is just a hand on the heart OK?
-Is singing off key allowed?
-Or should we maybe not police players' reaction to the anthem?
OPINION: Roos off key: If you won’t sing for Australia, don’t represent it dailytelegraph.com.au/news/o… via @dailytelegraph
Reckon the blokes losing their minds and posting about women invading "male spaces" when a woman tweets about gendered issues in the sport she covers realise how immediately and completely they're proving the point?
Almost every reply, or reply to reply, is pure braindead poison
"Just unnecessary" is kind of a hilarious way to refer to that. It was an insane transphobic right-wing conspiracy on the White House lawn, spewed by a lunatic intent on grabbing headlines.
But in the current set-up who could have possibly seen something like this coming?
As I've said, the UFC couldn't have delivered a better show. Grand slam.
With that said, my three critiques would be:
1. I didn't love the video packages. I just felt they didn't add much.
2. There was a lot of attention paid to WWE stars and boxers. I would've loved to see more UFC stars, legends, and champions get that shine.
3. The comment from Hokit was just unnecessary. Everything was going perfectly for him, and that completely changed the narrative.
Could ESPN really not find a genuine shot of Tony Parker as they cut to an ad break? Just had to use AI
What is this? Either give your opinion on the panel or don't sit on it. If it's because Gould doesn't want to get fined for slagging off the NRL and its officials while being in charge of a club, that probably tells us something about those dual roles being incompatible
Phil Gould has sidestepped the biggest moment of Origin 1, telling James Bracey he could have put the Channel 9 host’s job at risk.

The Broncos' finals run suddenly makes a lot more sense. Based on the current toll, they clearly made a wish on a monkey's paw.
Missing Walsh, Haas, Carrigan, Hunt, Walters, Staggs, Jensen, Mozer, Arthars, Anderson, Tawha and Hoeter. Any regrets letting Te Kura go to NFL camp?
Real 'senior moment' stuff from Geno. She clearly shook his hand before the game and he either forgot or wasn't looking or ... doesn't know what she looks like.
The "absolutely" and "2 for 2" voices (every chance it's the same guy) being drowned out by stupid laughter tells you a lot about these sort of locker rooms (and rooms more generally).
Voices of sanity being overwhelmed by misogynists emboldened by *gestures at everything*

Broncos "revealing" their 18 this early just feels like some mind games. Is there time for a late mail Ben Talty cap?
Presenting your 2025 NRL Grand Finalists — The Brisbane Broncos.
The stars that will put everything on the line. One more win to get. Kicking off tomorrow night at 7:30pm. Channel 9 & 9Now. #NRLGF
