    Game Preparation

    24 hours later - dust settling. Some thoughts. Living over here, and seeing the focus on the local teams with TV cover every week, I was concerned before the game that some of the no-names might catch out our forward planning. I know the coach was here 2 years back in an assistant role, but...

    Monday's leadership ballot - hopes and predictions

    Combet! Now!

    Terry Francona and Red Sox part ways.

    Am I missing something here? OK Big Papi is aging, but well, and he's still the starting DH in AL games for mine. But Pap, what are you talking about. He's only 30 years old and in his absolute prime (the last game was an aberration), and will be for quite a few years yet!!!

    Review AFL Round 16 autopsy - West Coast defeats Geelong by eight points

    Don't like to mention this in a loss, but you can't ever understimate the combined crowd/umpire effect. A good illustration was Taylor Hunt getting done HTB with seeming little prior oporttunity, and a short time later the whistle went before Priddis had barely hit the ground over the ball...

    Coaches Put to the Sword

    [bock had his best game for the suns, tambling is struggling, walker is proberly going to the GWS, tippett is over paid whilst he continues to kick like a 9 year old...I guess craig is gone as well by may? At least Voss has a injury plagued young team with leaders like brown, staker, drummond...

    Coaches Put to the Sword

    Rischitelli and Brennan in Suns' best - Sherman 4 goals for Bulldogs! Any odds on Voss surviving to the end of May 2011? Who might Brisbane possibly get as a replacement/stand-in at this stage of the season?

    We have Pendleburys signature on a contract.

    Will be a tough call for the poor little gianters with so many to choose from

    Steve Johnson in the midfield

    Equally stupid as Josh Hunt in the forward pocket. Let's hope the new coach was just having a little joke with interested watchers! And another thing with Josh Hunt. I'm ok with the occasional short (ie 40m) kick to breaK it up a bit, but when you can kick like that (& I'm not sure he offers...

    Truth in headlines

    I bet no-one was surprised to read the headline "Brisbane sacks coach before the season starts!" On the other hand, the Henjak sacking no doubt surprised many.

    Where were Sydney people?

    Preliminary final - game 3 - 1 shut-out win apiece! Should be a cracker! And it was..... 4 all after the regulation 9. 15 innings of top-flight baseball, with Adelaide bringing home 3 top of the 15th, and that was enough. Great performances from both sides. BUT ... ... how many of the the...

    Ben McKinley

    NO! While he did show some early promise, he's had that drained out of him by a very ordinary club. Has some very bad habits, I noted in quite a few Royals' games this year, including the semi-final against East Fremantle which is the one he kicked 7 a number of which were soft. Has seagull...

    Perth's own Luke Hughes goes long in first MLB at-bat!

    How about that? :thumbsu::) Twins away to Detroit. Luke Hughes makes it to the Bigs in the last week. Batting 9 (for the first time in his life?), Luke batting lead-off, top 3, GOES LONG TO RF IN HIS FIRST-EVER MLB AT-BAT!!!! No surprises there for Perth Heat fans. What a boost for...

    James Podsiadly

    Re: How many games will James Podsiadly play? Saw the man live at the weekend. Couldn't quite believe his size. To put it in perspective for WA locals, he is slightly taller and larger than Pavlich who IMO is a physical freak. Pods moves very quickly too. I'm not suggesting he should have...

    Geelong's 3 worst coaches in the last 50 years

    Another example of Blight's "genius syndrome"! RU forgetting Blight played the competition's leading centreman on a wing in the GF on Matera. Had a lot more possessions than Matera (although you'll get no argument from me about the comparative quality of the 2 efforts). No doubt Matera needed...
