Khawaja wasn’t overlooked as a potential Australian captain because of his colour as he claims. I suspect the Test selectors knew he was a divisive individual who would divide the team and have teammates turn on each-as he has successfully done in the past week.

Okay about this cricket ball sandpaper yarn. There is zero, repeat ZERO courage or integrity coming out when you’re retired to say, yeah nah, we all knew. What a grubby thing to do. Mind you, Aus cricket has been shit since JL et al retired.

Seriously we need to change the way we are governed. We cannot let people, who would struggle to fill in a dole form, be in charge of Australia’s taxpayer funded trillions.
Fuck me 🤦🏻‍♂️ No wonder we are so fucked

Aunty Julie Jones is a white, blond, blue eyed socialite who gets privileges & paid handsomely to be an Aboriginal. She got $10,000 at the NRL GF to welcome you to your own country. Is this all just a farce full of woke BS? @dinlare @PatsKarvelas @sunflamestheice @dodona777

Noticed the big sunglass wearing American didn’t shove the footy in too many faces today-only touched it twice……

Fuck me. I am at the 2026 AFL Grand Final parade, can I not enjoy a simple parade without the fucking 'Uncle Colin' doing a Welcome to Fucking Country. B4 you lefties start sooking, I am also indigenous. This shit needs to stop. We voted NO. So why is this still happening?

BREAKING: Anthony Albanese has been caught red handed donating a large amount of Australian taxpayer dollars to a club he has an undeclared interest in. Anthony Albanese has been an honorary member of Marrickville Golf Club for many years. Never declared it. Not once since 1996. Then his government invited that same undeclared club, and only that golf club, onto a closed $560m grant list stacked toward Labor seats. Which resulted in $6.5 million Australian taxpayer dollars going towards the renovation of that golf clubhouse. Barry O’Farrell was forced to resign as NSW Premier for failing to declare a bottle of Penfolds. O’Farrell failed to declare a $3,000 bottle of Penfolds Grange and was forced to resign. Albanese has an undeclared golf club membership, then donates a $6 million cheque to that club. Does $6 million of public money to an undeclared mates’ club outweigh a bottle of red wine? This doesn’t pass the pub test. Anthony Albanese must resign today. This is a huge scandal.

Umpiring has sunk to a new low ☹️

It’s almost unwatchable the way the game is over umpired. A couple of centimetres over the mark and they dish out 50. A couple of centimetres over and you get pinged for running too far.

What a great interview by TB with trainer Les Robertson. I hope the imbeciles who decided to let Terry go were watching. He does more to bring the colour of racing home to the viewers and why the people in racing do more for the sport than the 100 tipping shows will ever do.

Was the umpire who adjudicated the controversial Watson disallowed goal the same umpire who gave Rayner the equally controversial double goal in last year’s Qualifying Final?

AFL games record broken, one of the greatest comebacks ever & huge game between two flag aspirants...massive Saturday all hidden behind a paywall on a shitty & overpriced app. No FTA AFL on Saturdays might end up being the single worst decision the AFL ever ticked off on IMO.
