Essendon as a young team is a complete myth Brisbane played more blokes under 24 (8) in the GF than Essendon are playing tonight (6) #AFLDogsDons

The weird part of this argument is the "fans" actively gatekeeping their sport Higher ratings = more people watched = more $$$ for Seven = helps the sport remain on FTA (Also why pro-twilight can't articulate the benefits & say ratings instead of people is another weird thing)

Test cricket should be thought of like a concert - there’s no minimum amount of songs, just as long as we’re entertained. We don’t get any guarantees for a tennis match or a fight, we buy the ticket in hope Over rates are there to help the game move along; it hurtled today

@pad_nauseum @NicNegrepontis In which case I would be fucking ropable that my reputation has so publicly been called into question, particularly Meredith and Fleer as leading umpires

@Marcus_Taylor16 @NicNegrepontis I felt that way - you could argue Schultz is out of harm's way while he is initially assessed, and while it's tough to watch, there's no blood and no stretcher is called.

Either 4 umpires, including some serious veterans, have ALL lied and Laura Kane has thrown them under the bus for it. Or Laura Kane lied publicly thinking the AFL could get away with it and that the truth wasn’t important. Something that tracks with this administration. Either way. Fkn yikes.

@pad_nauseum @NicNegrepontis Quite a bit of power for trainers to be able to stop play, which would of course never be misused 😉 If that's the case, then the umpires adjudicated this situation correctly? Ball didn't go near the player and "they [trainers]" never asked for a stretcher?

@Marcus_Taylor16 @NicNegrepontis I think 'they' must be the trainers. If a stretcher is signalled, then you stop play.

But the cultural impact can never be understated

Still find it odd you can’t get a live stream of red carpet arrivals. Marquee evening for the sport and one of the rare chances to appeal to a wider demo #BrownlowMedal

Recently we lost a member of the WSL family. We would like to take a moment to remember our dear friend and colleague Camille Herrera 1980-2022.

Did…did a minotaur write this

My favourite thing about the Winter Olympics is that they set the entire thing in snow then call off every event as soon as it actually snows #Beijing2022

@chrislintott Have you seen this cutaway from the cricket coverage yesterday? Jupiter and 3 of the Gallilean moons That's a hell of a lens

@jayrigdon5 Nah quite the opposite, appreciated your review wasn't straining to elevate the doco to some exalted level as others have done, probably due to his sporting greatness or his sad circumstances. It was a good piece of work and a well-told story

@Marcus_Taylor16 (Obviously you're free to disagree with my review here too, haha. Just know I'm not really afraid to say something is bad when it's bad, etc.)

@shawry_analyst A good man and a good family

Surely Breretonin is on the WADA list
