What’s that resonating around Headingly at #TheAshes2023? @portiaderossi whispers it’s the sound of the impending @ECB_cricket collapse. Aussie quicks circling, @benstokes on one leg, drinks and sammiges at the ready.

Enjoying the summer vibe here on the Headingly balcony. Thanks @portiaderossi for my new sunnies. Nice watching a couple of chaps who actually know how to bat and not be rude about it. Did someone say “Campari”? Make mine a double.

@Championat13 @AustralianOpen @DaniilMedwed Fair point. Any examples from modern times - like the last 50 years.

@ellenderoot655 @AustralianOpen @DaniilMedwed May be because, for example, the US sportsmen never been banned after nuclear bombs on Hirosima... And after Vietnam war...

Always entertaining, @DaniilMedwed 💪 😂 #AusOpen • #AO2023

@KyleFortesque @AustralianOpen @DaniilMedwed But it is convenient for the #AustralianOpen to have us believe that it is.

@KyleFortesque @AustralianOpen @DaniilMedwed It’s not that simple.

@popcornmonstret @AustralianOpen @DaniilMedwed Giving most things a name makes them OK. Not this.

@AustralianOpen why is the electronic line judge call programmed to sound like a duck #quack @AustralianOpen

@malcolmconn Everything is linked #everything

@NeilMcMahon @wwos Tiger Woods. Has hardly won since being threatened with a 5-iron by his jilted wife

Can everyone, especially @wwos commentators, please not forget when Sir @andy_murray was a petulant twat, screaming at his players box that included his mum and blaming everyone else for his limited success at #AusOpen Sure we all move on, grow and improve but not to be idolised

@zdaniel Everyone already has equality. I think you mean equity, don’t you? This mistake/ignorance is a perfect example of the height of the hurdles that are faced.

This year, I will be supporting the Indigenous Voice to Parliament. Because Equality Matters. #VoiceToParliament #Referendum2023 #Equality #IndigenousVoice #DoedanielMP

So, a Q: for the #AusOpen twitterati. Why is the #AusOpen prepared/allowed to pay Russians eg @DaniilMedwed when everyday employers have govt sanctions that ban paying Russian-based freelancers in other industries.

@portiaderossi loves nothing more than me, except maybe @Marnus33cricket at the #pinktest - oh and an afternoon on the @AperolSpritz at the Paddington End.

@9_Moley @scg @sydneyroosters Is that Ron Coote in an Easts jumper doing the chairing?

On this day in 1975 🐓 The Immortal Arthur Beetson is chaired off the @scg after the @sydneyroosters 38-0 Grand Final victory over the Dragons. BUT - what is wrong with this picture???

Was that not a somewhat, dare I say embarrassed, celebration by the @AllBlacks #BledisloeCup @RugbyAU @NZRugby

We have seen lots of appalling refereeing this year. Nothing, NOTHING, has been as bad as that #BledisloeCup @RugbyAU

How does Sam Whitelock even keep a straight face during an interview? And how are any Wallabies, players or staff, even smiling at the moment #BledisloeCup

@MattMuir28 Why have we come to loathe rugby? That is why

That last penalty confirms why those of us who used to at least watch rugby have given up on the joke this is #rugby #BledisloeCup @RugbyAU
