@JNolnah You’re Scottish, do you even have a football team? 🤷

Argentina have repeatedly shown us everything football shouldn’t be. Today France and England showed us what it should be. No hate between players, no filthy fouls and trying to actually harm each other, no political statements, no favouritism, no disgusting behaviour from fans just the beautiful game.

@lancehenriksen As artificial persons go Bishop you’re ok

40 years. #Aliens #Bishop

@tim_michell If GWS beat Swans next week I think they’ll pip Pies for 10th

So the top 9 is locked in then? St Kilda, North, GWS and Carlton playing for 10th and last wildcard spot. Cats 9th and two games ahead of 10th.

@rohan_connolly What about that package Couldn’t hit a cows backside with a banjo

So THAT’S what a win feels like!!! 😂#afldonsgiants

@7AFL @HyundaiAus Round 24

How far can the Pies go in season 2026? @hyundaiaus

@1968Tv That French goal was a superb left footed finish

So it’s England v France tonight in the 2026 World Cup 3rd/4th place play-off. Back in 1982, when World Cups were worth watching, England beat France 3-1 on the 16th June in the opening game of group 4 Commentator Martin Tyler #England #France

@RealCarrieHenn The directors cut made everything clear regarding Ripley’s relationship with Newt

@RetroMoviesDB Hudson & Ferro

Who is your favourite Colonial Marine from Aliens....

@PaulYoungParlez The Fabulous Wealthy Tarts.They were great times

43 years of No Parlez! 🎹 On this day in 1983, my debut solo album officially hit the UK shelves. Looking back, I'm incredibly grateful for the journey it started and the amazing memories we all share. Thank you for listening then, and thank you for listening now.

@TheCinesthetic Wasn’t that impressed with the sequel.However when the directors cut came out it all made sense

ALIENS was released 40 years ago today. James Cameron was just 31 when he directed the film and had only one major hit to his name. Many on the crew doubted him, but Aliens earned 7 Oscar nominations and became one of the most acclaimed sequels ever made.

@AFL What grab was that?

How about this grab from Jobe Shanahan? 🤲 #AFLEaglesLions

@TheStingisBack I was never a huge fan of the sequel until I saw the directors cut.Then it all made sense. It does contain one of my favourite 1 liners

"Get away from her, you bitch!" Aliens turns 40 today. Here’s Sigourney Weaver on delivering that iconic line. And how a farmer from Northern England was literally the man behind the greatest, and probably only, Alien vs. Power Loader showdown in cinema history.

@TheStingisBack One of OJ Simpson’s more wooden performances

Happy Birthday, James Brolin The raw snake-eating scene in Capricorn One (1977) freaked me out. In reality, the “snake” was catfish covered in ketchup and honey, which sounds pretty tasty. This scene was deemed too graphic for the UK and was cut from the 1983 VHS release.

@thaylock Stick to the gee gees mate

Harris Andrews looking at a 3 week suspension. High, swinging arm, strike. #AFL #AFLEaglesLions

@AFL Baker will be able to watch the Derby next week on the telly

Cam Rayer goaled after this incident with Liam Baker. #AFLEaglesLions

@verylargeheart @brisbanelions

@brisbanelions Fuck me you beat Wet Toast. Give it a spell you cocky, arrogant cunts. Been enjoying the smell of your own farts for too long

Believed, achieved. 🦁

@LiamJM10TV They also scored twice against Argentina

@RalphyHeraldSun Carlton’s sugar hit will end long before Round 20

The AFL will postpone a decision on locking in the final two floating rounds of the season until after round 20. Some mouthwatering games including Carlton-Freo in round 24 if the Blues keep winning turn into dead rubbers if they lose the next couple. The fans are keen for clarity but the league keen for maximum drama. Clubs trying to leap into the top six and avoid five finals will only help to build a compelling finish to the home and away season @FOXFOOTY

@maxlaughton All good Max Thanks for reply.Great win for Crows last night. Makes life interesting at the pointy end

@dingoderek So the way it works is I’m giving each game percentage odds For example if Brisbane were 70% to win each game, times six that’s 4.2 wins on average That’s how you get ‘projected to lose 2 games’ rather than me picking two games they’re gonna lose. They’re favourites in all

Unless there’s a reasonably big upset, 2nd to 6th will be split by one win after this weekend 👀 Swans still favoured in last five games, the hardest is next (Sydney Derby)… Crows have to play Freo away & Lions play Hawks… percentage may save Sydney in the end but it’s tight!

@virender_swag A wonderful tribute sir.

Rest in peace, Sir Garry. There will never, ever be another like you. It is with a incredibly heavy heart that I hear the news of the passing of the greatest of them all, Sir Garfield Sobers. For anyone who loves this beautiful game, Sir Garry wasn’t just a cricketer; he was the ultimate standard of what a cricketer could be. When we talk about all-rounders today, we often look at players who can balance two disciplines. But Sir Garry? He was a master of five. He could bat like a dream, bowl fast-medium with the new ball, switch seamlessly to orthodox left-arm spin, bowl wrist spin, and field like a panther at short leg or in the slips. To watch him walk onto a cricket field, with that loose, rhythmic Caribbean stride, collars turned up, was to watch absolute majesty in motion. He played the game with a sublime joy and a fierce, competitive dignity that defined an entire era.  I remember the sheer awe he inspired whenever India played the West Indies. You couldn't take your eyes off him. Even when he was taking the game away from you, you couldn't help but marvel at the genius of the man. His 365 not out stood as a mountain for decades, and those six sixes in an over became the stuff of folklore. Yet, off the field, he was always an absolute gentleman—warm, incredibly generous with his knowledge, and fiercely proud of the game's finest traditions.  Cricket has lost its brightest jewel today. The stands are a little quieter, and the game is poorer without him. My deepest condolences go out to his family, his friends, and to every cricket lover across the Caribbean and the world who is mourning this incomparable loss.
