@7horseracing great Jamie Kah clip, but I thought Darren Weir “loved” the horses too. #DerbyDay #flemington abc.net.au/news/2019-10-1…

There will plenty of touching stories today about how much everyone in the industry loves the horses. Educate yourself with the full story. abc.net.au/news/2019-10-1… #DerbyDay #flemington #NupToTheCup #derby

I am ashamed to admit that for 46 years I was a huge fan of racing. Sucked in by the romantic “rags to riches” stories, that those in the industry treated the horses with love. Then I woke up. Google Darren Weir or Race Horse wastage. #NupToTheCup

No one deserves to die, or be beaten with whip and forced to run, for gambling profits. Will you join thousand of caring Australians saying “Nup to the Cup” this year? Follow @hrseracingkills for a #NupToTheCup event near you, and support their important work for horses.

Just brilliant!

All Australian states have now experienced devastating floods. Does anyone, or any non-trivial political party, suggest that Climate Change was not part of the cause?

Just last week journalists arrogantly mocked the centre following its closure, even calling it a white elephant. Those same journalists have been left with egg on their faces as the centre is prepped to provide vital shelter, as the Andrews Government responds to #vicfloods.

@7AFL Not when you factor in Brodie as well. Appalling list management AGAIN.

Collingwood turned Ollie Henry into Tom Mitchell and draft pick No.25. Good deal?

@codeaflau @WillSchofield Trade out and continue to pay Brodie- and that’s an A? Wish you’d been my teacher at school I could have been a neuro surgeon! 😂

⬛ COLLINGWOOD ⬜ 🟩 IN: Tom Mitchell, Daniel McStay, Bobby Hill, Billy Frampton Pick 25, 27, 40 🟥 OUT: Brodie Grundy, Ollie Henry, picks 41, 43, 50, future 2nd round pick, future 3rd round pick ✏️ GRADE: A ▶️ @WillSchofield ANALYSES EVERY #AFL CLUB: bit.ly/3TjOezM

Question for roadside fans at the #giro - when they come past how much do you know about the status of the race within the various categories? I’ve only ever watched on tv. @giroditalia

There is now hope for Australians' future, with real solutions to climate change, cost of living, budget repair and corruption now on the table. Anthony Albanese will be the 31st Prime Minister of Australia — fought and won on an entirely clean campaign.

@JoshFrydenberg Great test of your intelligence Kooyong. Are you up for it?

Welcome to Kooyong, John Howard! It was an honour to have one of our greatest Prime Ministers in our wonderful community today. Australia has benefitted greatly from his outstanding leadership over so many years.

@orlandomazzone @PRGuy17 I could not agree more. I've never had much interest in politics, but with how grave the national situation is, this is the most important election in my lifetime. We can't let the vandals currently in charge further destroy the future of our once great nation. #PutLNPLast

@JoshFrydenberg 🖕🖕

How good is John Howard👇

First he bulldozed your wages. Then he bulldozed your savings. He says he was “just warming up”, and now he's going to bulldoze your super. #ScottsSuperTax

How joyful is it to see Adam Treloar destroying Collingwood? The Ultimate penalty for appalling list management. #AFLPiesDogs

In 3 weeks we’ll be listening to Scotty’s concession speech. 🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳👌👌👌

@triplemfooty All grossly over rated. Love to see teams replace their Ruck with a tallish aerobic mid. Convinced what you’d lose in the ruck you’d make up for on the ground.

There's ruck carnage across the competition, with 16 ruckmen unavailable for selection across 13 clubs.

Thank you Lisa Millar. Your line of questioning has, as always, inspired me to turn off the @abcnews and start work. My employer should be paying you for your contribution each day. 👏
