If you're stuck at home and enjoy true crime, I just watched a very good documentary (I believe you employ the word doco) about Ted Bundy on You Tube. Horrifying, he was an example of how human beings are capable of sinking into the abyss.

If you like shooters, team fortress 2 .. i play it all the time! ..... and it's freeeee.

This game came out when I was in high school and I signed up to the BETA so I was amongst the first to play online. I played it religiously and put a ridiculous amount of hours in it before I had to forcibly stop myself hahaha. It's changed a hell of a lot since then too - that was 13 years ago!
 
Can't work out why its accepted that all sports need to be locked down.

For example Tennis could be played within the realms of social isolation.
You collect your own balls at the end of each set . One player has green one has red, don't pick up the other players, wack it to them with the raquet.

Foxtel could organise some sort of Celebrity challenge.
Pay Ash Barty ( for example ) to play a Match each week.
Put up prize money for young challengers to try to beat her.

Could be done with a number of celebrities based on where they live.

Unfortunately the "Beat the Flog " series can't be run, because he is in Miami faking Corona Virus ( totally within Character ).

Some boffin should create an e-league where game are played for the length of a full game. Play games Thurs-Sun like a normal round

Preferably a saints boffin so we win the flag 😀
 
I've always been able to juggle a tiny little bit but a week of practising everyday and I've set a new record this morning - 55 catches!!!

I was thinking of ordering some juggling clubs but I’m concerned about the height of our ceilings.

To be honest it is more because of the risk of transmission. E.g. changing ends and close distance with the referee. Plus ball boys/girls (unless make it like local level tennis). On the other hand, Belarusian soccer is on, the Belarusian Premier League is playing (and with crowds). And there are some teams familiar with many fanatics of the round ball game, e.g. BATE Borisov, who have competed against the likes of Barcelona, Roma and Chelsea in the Champions League. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2020_Belarusian_Premier_League

Or try playing puzzles, e.g. sudoku. Or if you're at school or uni, studying. Or video games. The list goes on.
 
Clicking on here more than i should, good god i have even started an online fitness thing

Ref can have his/her own little box.
Always swap ends , walking down their own side.
And yeah, pick up their own balls. Different colored balls for different players. Wack the others back to the owners end.
 
Not sure if you're into basketball mate triggering bro and anyone else really but that Chicago Bulls/MJ doco came out today. First two episodes.

Just put on episode 1 and one thing that always stands out to me is just how aesthetically pleasing the NBA was in the 90's. From the logos to the merch to the crappy cameras in the too bright stadiums. Just feels special.

Yeah I've just finished the first episode. I'm a 76ers fan but the Bulls and Jordan were what got me into the sport when I was a kid. It's great seeing all the behind the scenes footage as well. I can't believe how popular they actually were. The Bulls owe him just about everything.
