Ash Barty Arena it is.

She's only 21 slams short of Court's record.

I'd prefer if the worlds best womens tennis player kept her name on the stadium personally.

Serena Arena does have a nice ring to it I guess

In the spirit of naming a swimming pool after Harold Holt, how about JK Arena?

How Dean Cox almost ended JK’s career

Eagles legend recounts the training mayhem which landed Josh Kennedy in hospital.

Margaret Court unlikely to get the "top bloke" treatment when she croaks.

Tina Arena

The concert arena next door to be named Tina Arena Arena.

Tina Arena

F*** off lol.

Joondalup Arena

She's only 21 slams short of Court's record.

Arthur Ashe only won 3 Grand Slams, strip his name from Flushing Meadows for Pete Sampras imo.

 

[DanWCE]

Sirena Arena does have a nice ring to it I guess

We’re gonna need a separate thread for people to post their controversial/terrible opinions

Call it the Gary Lyon thread in his honour

Can you guess who today's mystery AFL player is?

This is ludicrous but brilliant. As a current player of about 5 Wordle variants, I wholeheartedly embrace this.

You're a fan of a game named after Worpel? Colour me surprised.

Wordle 277 2/6*




I sort of cheated though

Stumbled across a tweet yesterday that not only gave the correct answers for previous games but also what the answers for upcoming games were

Saw what the “answer” for today was without necessarily believing it was true. Didn’t want to guess the answer first up so put in something with a lot of similar letters. Lo and behold the tweet had the correct answer

I’ve purged the rest from memory because frankly playing the game knowing the answer takes all the fun out of it

You should watch Samurai Jack. Bonus points for some episodes being entirely dialogue free. Tremendous show, amazing atmosphere, incredibly funny at times. Perfection.

If you haven't already, you should check out his new show Primal. There's no dialogue at all, but he's such a talented visual story teller and he wrings so much out of characters that speak only in grunts. Beautifully animated.

Tried to watch SJ after but couldn't get into it. Will give it another shot though!

Great now I will be humming the Back to the Future theme song for months

Ishmael_ finally finished CHAOS (I blame roughly 50 hours of Elden Ring in 3 weeks) - was a good read, felt a bit conspiracy nutty towards the end but it definitely interesting entertaining some of the possibilities. Something is definitely up with people refusing to share information with him, seemed to be a lot of self-preservation and it sux how much of the truth is going to die with people considering the age of the story. But as he finishes he can confirm it didn't happen exactly as we think we know it. Not sure if you've read Area 51, but had similar vibes to it. Thanks for the recommendation.

I started Normal People by Sally Rooney Ochre, whether you've read it or not you recommended Sally Rooney to me so I'll direct my review at you.

I built the previous version of this with my boys a couple of months ago. Waited until we went through the trilogy and then cracked it out might have to upgrade to this version
