So, after you mentioned Gobert recently, I finally saw the first news I've seen on him for years and it's quite disturbing.
A couple of weeks ago he was nearly beaten to death by intruders in his home.
The story goes that he was hassled by a drunk at a restaurant who he told to leave him alone. The drunk came back with mates who then started a fight and Gobert dropped one of them. Then it is said that someone then followed Gobert home and later that night, the group has broken in and beaten him with baseball bats.

The Pikes Peak hillclimb was run this week. Australian, Rennie Scaysbrook, was the quickest bike up the mountain on his Aprilia, setting a new record time. This was his run.
I had particular interest in this years running as Ducati were running a brand new prototype Streetfighter V4 based on their current superbike (I have an older model Streetfighter). They had a great start setting pole position. Unfortunately disaster struck in the race when their rider - a four time champion - crashed near the summit and was sadly killed. Godspeed, Carlin Dunne.

The highest rating fixture of the weekend was Thursday night’s AFL Adelaide v Richmond match at Adelaide Oval with 1.005 million people tuning in on Seven and Fox Footy. The game was also the highest rating game for the round on the Seven network with 790,000 people.
On Foxtel it was Saturday evenings Souths v Panthers clash which was the highest drawing game with 276,000 viewers tuning in.
AFL
Round 13 of the AFL season was another bye round with 6 teams having the week off and matches being played in Townsville and Hobart. The total viewing audience for the round was 3.388 million across the Seven Network and Foxtel, while the average audience per round currently sits at 4.18 million per round.
The highest rating game for the round was Thursday night’s Adelaide v Richmond match at Adelaide Oval with 1.005 million people tuning in on Seven and Fox Footy.

During the week the AFL CEO Gillon McLachlan told a press conference that the AFL TV ratings were up double digits on last year, and this appears to be the case with Television ratings up 10.03% on the same time in 2017.
The AFL Premiership Season has had 54.345 million viewers this season at a match average of 490,000 across Fox and Seven.

In addition, State of Origin 1 adds another 3.207m viewers to the total, giving the NRL a narrow win for this time of the year with just 88,000 viewers – but it should be extended somewhat this weekend.

was interviewed by Jess Yates while the V8s were at Barbagallo, clearly the pair were friends from her days doing t20 cricket.
From The West earlier this year:
Quick lured back to the fast lane
An Ashes hero spent the day sliding his Formula 1000 race car around Barbagallo Raceway at speeds approaching 270km/h.
thewest.com.au
Instead, Mitchell Johnson spent yesterday sliding his Formula 1000 race car around Barbagallo Raceway at speeds approaching 270km/h.
Australia’s Ashes hero was making his debut in the class after months of training with Arise Racing — and during a short break from commentary duties for the national side’s tour of India.
Speaking shortly after the first of two races — Johnson qualified ninth but moved up one spot to finish eighth in the five-lapper — the 37-year-old said he had been hooked on motor racing since getting behind the wheel of a V8 during a lap challenge for Telethon.
“Being a fast bowler, I just want to do fast things and this is just absolutely perfect,” he said.
