Tough time to be a sports fan in Australia. T20 Cricket World Cup exclusive to Amazon Prime. Socceroos exclusive to Paramount+. EPL exclusive to Optus Sport. Champions League exclusive to Stan Sport. AFL and NRL games exclusive to Kayo. Shouldn’t be this difficult to watch sport.

This is it. You literally need five different streaming services to be an all round sports fan now and most of them don’t work half the time. On any measure emerging tech has made the experience of sports fandom in Australia worse.

I know West Coast Eagles are bad but is it POSSIBLE that we might be… good? The evidence is mounting. #AFLeagleshawks #AFL

Olympic basketball court is a bleeding eyesore

Absolutely wild stat

Great to see James Franco making it into the quarter finals

Who is gunna write the book about Arnie ball?

Tony Soprano impersonation

Just realised CommBank Socceroos game tonight will only be on that weird streaming service that nobody has. Terrific move as always by those who run football in Australia.

Was anyone else in the race? Doesn’t seem like a very competitive race…

How’s this little vignette in the middle of the AP story about the impending doom of #Milton? ‘Tensions were rising’

Hear me out but maybe Mitch Duke and Aziz Behich are not the radical new approach this Soccceroos team requires.

Absolutely dire football, not a single idea between the lot of them. Sideways pass, sideways pass, sideways pass, run into three defenders and fall over. Repeat.

BRATtan summer is already over. Thankfully. #JPNvAUS

Time to quit here for all the obvious reasons. I hardly post these days but have been lurking to keep up with news (mostly sport) and a diminishing number of people I find interesting. The amount of garbage has gotten too much. What’s a better alternative, Bluesky or threads?

Year of the Hawk

Nothing finer than a classic smash and grab raid. ‘Mon the Vuck!

Hawks!

No footy on Father’s Day has got to be a pretty big scheduling fail, surely?

Role model. Hero. These are the ppl we r beyond lucky to have serve. God give me half the courage that this young officer has.
