Special guy! 👏👏

Well done Boks! Back-to-back wins v the All Blacks at home. In fact it's now 4 wins-in-a-row v the ABs which hadn't been done since 1949. Not always pretty and too many penalties conceded at the breakdown, but with 2 tries to nil, it was a deserved triumph.👏 #Springboks #RSAvNZL

Well, it was traditionally the wingers who threw the ball into the lineout. (Check out old vids from 60s even early 70s) Seeing that this week we were discussing the haka and how it is a rugby tradition, perhaps it just shows that Rassie too is a traditionalist at heart! 😅😅

You learn more in defeat than in victories, they say. Well, if we didn't know it already, you can't have Libbok on the pitch at end of a game. We won v France, in QFs, and v England, in SFs, and today learnt what would've happened had he been or come on. #ARGvsRSA #Springboks

Congrats to the Boks winning the Rugby Championship 2024. The team was irresistible and overwhelmed Argentina in the scrum and loose, running in seven tries to one. Also, nice to see Manie put in a star performance after being unshackled from kicking duties. #RSAvARG #Springboks

They've made it! The Yankees are in the World Series for the 1st time since 2009! No comeback this time from the Guardians after the Juan Soto three-run homer in the extra innings put the Yankees in an unassailable position! And Soto caught the final Guardian out too! #Yankees

Erik ten Hag has been sacked! Should've gone after FA Cup Final as was reported to be the plan! Because options weren't available he stayed on and brought in his own choice of players, some of which were unnecessary and now will need to be kept on and be someone else's headache!

I doubt that Ten Hag needs his fanboys' tears or good luck wishes for the future! At around £3.5m a year, he became a millionaire at United many times over and set for life, so his future is just fine! He does leave United requiring another long-term rebuilding project, though.

Tight game in Dublin. All Blacks lead 9-6 at HT. ABs struggling to get quick ball from breakdown bcoz of Irish pressure. ABs trying to open play and Ireland having to make a lot of tackles. Expect Aki to find space in midfield as Barrett missing at start of 2nd half. #IREvNZL

Good win by SA in error-strewn game from both sides. On upside for SA, du Plessis was imperious at 1st receiver and Pollard ice-cool as usual. Important both played full 80 mins. On the down side, the lineout struggled and too many knock-ons at the breakdown. #Springboks #SCOvSA

Hard fought but great win for Springboks v England. And how was Cheslin Kolbe today? Easily player of the match. He's a special, special, talent. Never mind the sidesteps and speed, he's a ferocious defender, safe under high ball, can play 9, and can even kick at posts! #ENGvRSA

Just hear Amorim in flash interview on Portuguese TV saying United only had two training sessions before Ipswich game so was hard to implement his changes. He saw today United don't hold the ball long enough and wants to change that for b4 Thursday's Europa League clash. #IPSMUN

Hopefully she'll receive clemency and can return to her life and family after these 15 years. It's immaterial what she knew or didn't know, what she did or didn't do. She's suffered and has been through enough. Ultimately her only crime was being poor and so became an easy prey.

I followed Mary Jane's case - and of the Bali Nine too - just prior to 2015 when it all made such world news. I also followed your updates after your involvement in April that year. Thanks to all your hard work - and the others involved too - you helped save a life. Amazing. 🙏🙏

Thank you, Secretary Marco Rubio, for imposing 🇺🇸 U.S. sanctions on the U.N.'s Hamas terrorism supporter Francesca Albanese! Good has triumphed over evil. I proudly joined UN Watch's campaign for this bold and historic decision. Now it's time for other nations to follow suit: Ban Albanese.

Congratulations to Malcolm Marx on being awarded World Rugby Player of the Year. What a player! Fully deserved! Plus, it's not an award that often goes to a hooker. I believe the last one to win this award was back in 2001. And congrats to South Africa too. #Springboks #IREvRSA

Urgent: how to help save a young protester’s life. I cannot believe how many years we’ve had to recycle this dystopian practice. God, when will it end? #ErfanSoltani

Sacha Feinberg-Mngomezulu had a real poor game. Shouldn't have had added responsibility of being captain. He was under enough pressure during game as it was. Oh well, all part of his learning experience. Overall Sharks deserved it and Hendriks controlled it at fly-half. #SHAvSTO

Well done USA! Now THAT was exciting! Great team performance, yes, but goalie Connor Hellebuyck stands out. He was special and kept the US in the game on a couple of occasions. Nice touch too, by the team to honour Johnny Gaudreau at the end of the Game. #USAvCAN #WinterOympics

Well done Filipinas! Everyone was immense out there today! And as for Jael-Marie Guy... What a performance!! So young yet deserved Player of the Match. She led the Uzbeki right-back a merry dance all game long and set up both Filipina goals. Well done again! 🇵🇭 #WAC2026 #PHIvUZB
