    Between 4 and 6 players of the current team of 13 (including Lyon), will need to be replaced in the next 3 years. Age will weary them. Get started on that in a controlled manner now please.

    Shane Dowling from the "Kangaroo Court" website fashions himself to be a journalist, when in actual fact he is a bit of a knob. He names names and generally flouts the law, which has seen him taken to court a few times. Nevertheless, he does throw up some interesting associations that make you...

    This is the weather prediction for day 5 (according to ABC reports): It's going to rain early in the morning, but clear up in time for the start of play.

    What a spanking. The sun no longer shines out of our a-holes. Our swagger degraded to a stooped waddle. No longer do we have the fastest. No longer the most resolute. A team of maybe, maybe nots. I'm talking about our cricket team, not our footy team. I think.

    Re dwelling shortages I was interested in this plot produced recently by AMP, where the yearly number of dwelling completions and total population growth between 1995 and mid-2024 (projected) were shown. Green arrows pointed to periods of time where there was a perceived under-supply and...

    I do not support the dismissal of Bairstow, in the same way that I do not support the assertion that Starc dropped that catch the day before. They both reflect poor law making.
