The no race wins yet seems to affect him a fair bit anytime it looks a possibility, but I think there’s a decent chance Lando might now be the second best driver on the grid. Charles, Sainz, and maybe Russell and Alonso would all be in the conversation, but I feel like Lando more consistently...

Bold of Forest to say it’s ‘not about individuals’ a day after jumping on Twitter straight after the game to imply the ref was a corrupt cheat.

I’d even be happy if every finisher got a point. You could scale it if you want so there is a decent leap from tenth to eleventh so that would still be a key aim, but it would give real value to the battle between the backmarkers each round. At the moment for 3-4 teams it feels like their...

Fans of clubs lower down the pyramid don’t care that much about progressing. They can’t win the competition so getting to the 3rd or 4th round really makes no difference. They want to draw the biggest club they can, and if they can’t knock them off in 90 minutes they’ll happily take a big away...

We’ve just had 4 cracking quarter finals. It’s a small sample but there’s no way they bring back away goals while they’re getting ties like these. I give Bayern a big chance against Madrid. Think they match up well and will limit how Madrid like to attack and they won’t see anything like the...

Weirdest bit is Palmer has been so good on pens. It should be a pretty easy one for Poch to sort though. If Palmer is on the pitch he takes it, and if anyone tries to take it off him again they don’t play for Chelsea anymore.

Think it’s part coping mechanism, also some like to build it up to be the great underdog story if their team happens to win. Feels like fans these days take the approach a lot of coaches do in always painting their team as the underdog for some reason. City have struggled against Spurs...

Wonder if jockeys/trainers here will take any lessons from the two features today. Jockey on Circle of Fire could’ve snagged back, overraced and found cover back in the field somewhere. Instead rolled along 3 wide, got the horse comfortable and settled much closer to the speed. Not many horses...

The games don’t really mean nothing. I’m sure City and Bayern are happy knowing any win at home will be enough. I didn’t agree with it but they really removed away goals because home teams were being too defensive because the cost of conceding was too high. It’s only a very small sample but so...

Probably not far off getting to the point where a salary cap wouldn’t really impact the quality in the premier league. Realistically is probably less than a dozen clubs in Europe with the financial power of even a bottom half team that’s been in the league for a few seasons. Not that I think...

Still don’t really like All In and All Out being a week apart. Other then that looks like a schedule that should help give the shows a pretty good rhythm.

He’s not experienced that situation before though. Biggest game of his club career, at home and a chance to win it last minute. That’s unreal pressure. He’s played lots of football because he’s very good, but at the end of the day he’s still young and if the same situation happens in Munich I...

I think there was a fair chance Neuer was going to foul him if Saka did actually try and round him. But Saka tried to milk it instead and misjudged it to the point that he threw in a super awkward stride to force the contact. He’s a young kid though and he’ll know better next time

For the most part I hadn’t really bought in to the ‘new era’ talk recently outside of a few segments. But these last two nights it’s been clear as day. I’m not even sure there’s any one or two big changes but more like 100 small ones that add up to a massively different product. One example...

The books themselves aren’t affiliated but they both use the Kambi platform. Agree I wouldn’t use bonuses to back both sides etc. on those 2 as I think they both use Kambi’s trading services. They have the same prices as well so wouldn’t be maximising the value of the bets using those two...

The small books don’t have to bet MBL’s for a lot of the racing bodies as they fall under the turnover thresholds, including NSW greys. They’ll have to bet you on any gallops or I think all QLD codes though

Fulham please

Think it’s a sign of progress for Arsenal that they’re willing to play so negatively in a game like that. Got the result they wanted and when you’re chasing a title that’s all that matters. Might not have been as effective if the ref remembered to bring his cards but that’s not their fault. As...

Two monument podiums are impressive results for Bling early in the season

Was an entertaining race and amazing crowds. A few got their tactics wrong though. Might only be bad luck that beats MVDP next week, which to be fair is a big chance at Roubaix. Feels a waste any monument that at least 2 of the big 4 don’t ride at the moment, obviously these 2 impacted by...

It’s got a pretty big impact on the league though. They chose the company based on the fact they couldn’t afford the costs of the company who had been doing it previously. They are now in a spot where as of yesterday they were supposedly negotiating to get the company they can’t afford to...

Think he’s talking about the production company they were getting to do the broadcasts for them collapsing. Sounds like they’ll be able to use an alternative but at a higher cost. And from reports it sounded like they were struggling financially to handle the much cheaper costs from the...

I remember the one day festivals like BDO going from the biggest event of the year to dying off as the multi day festivals became more popular and mainstream than ever. Sad to see them go but the time commitment, travel and cost make them a hard sell these days. They also aren’t attracting the...

This Sky post race show really loses a lot not being at the track. Especially given there could be a decent story brewing with this Alonso/Russel situation

It’s a very long season and we’re 2 races and a qualifying in, and they’ve split the results 1 each so far. DR had been underwhelming so far but reality is it’s cost the team nothing. I doubt he does improve much, but he might and he only needs to do that either by the time the car gets...

Wonder how the Sainz contract situation works out. Is he waiting to see if the second Red Bull seat is available? I’d have him the clear best option as a replacement but Perez has started the season well. Does he wait to see if Alonso is leaving Aston? Should Mercedes be trying to beat both to...

Decent start to the season from the Saints. Taking the Cats to within a kick late in Geelong then knocking off the Pies at the G is more than I was expecting from them.

Chelsea please

I’m not sure results tell us which is the strongest state, for example NSW have an entire bowling attack that very rarely ever gets to play a game for them. But the States 100% should be playing to win. Good Australian players will come from that. And if they don’t that probably suggests a...

West Ham please
