Well done to Football South Australia Hall of Famer Airlee Keen, who received over 1,000 votes as an independent in the seat of Hammond, a tough seat to get votes considering how strong Labor and One Nation supporters are in that region.
MetroStars vs Adelaide City NPLSA game, 25 mins in and this is the highest intensity game I have seen in a while. Both teams putting on a showcase. NPL football is alive and pumping.
I received this in the mail today from the Speaker of the SA Parliament @LeonBignell. This was a lovely token of recognition for a job not many people are willing to do.
To the 712 who went before me, thanks for your service, to those who come after me, I wish you every success.
The silent majority won’t make a change to the likely winner of the South Australian election, but they will make a huge difference to politics across Australia moving forward.

📱 Hear the AFC Women's Asian Cup on ABC listen: ab.co/4bSbSza
@DimitriPeppas_@abcsport once this tournament is over it's going to be all downhill for the Lessies. They hosted the world cup a few years back, now Asian cup. They wont host another major championship for decades now. Sham kerr will be done and no one will give a shit at watching them play at 1am.
