Not sure if anyone else is affected but Kayo in the One Day Final at Ninja just broke into 16 ads on the trot during live play for what reason?

Everyone who loves cricket, particularly Test Cricket should read this. It’s perfectly written and explains the current batting mindset, from an esteemed world class batsman.👏👏👏
Outstanding from Greg Chappell, describing the attitude from both sides as “Appalling!” “blaming the pitch rather than their own frailties. Few put their body on the line, gesturing, laughing and cursing as they departed as if the surface was unplayable.” smh.com.au/sport/cricket/bra…

There is clearly no justice in the game if Josh Inglis gets the nod in front of Beau Webster. @lithgowflashman

In mid 2024, David King urged the Lions to sack Fagan & target Chris Scott as their coach. A year & a half later, Fagan’s Lions defeated the Cats in a Prelim and GF to go back-to-back & has equaled Scott’s Premierships as coach with 2. #AFLGF #AFLCatsLions #AFLFinals

Hawthorn has farewelled Sam Frost and Jasper Scaife after being informed that they will not be offered contracts for the 2026 season. We wish them all the best for their next chapters 💛 📝: bit.ly/3IFt8fl

Keep poking the bear, Shubman. Rumor has it that your physio spends so much time on the pitch, he now has a shirt number...

Today would have been my dad’s 74th birthday. This season carries gravity. Father’s Day, his birthday, and the anniversary of his passing all fall within 60 days. For me, grief has no straight path. It revisits, reshapes, and rises when I least expect it. But alongside it lives a legacy built on generosity and kindness. He made people feel seen. Gave permission to feel deeply and to laugh through pain. That mission continues. To those carrying loss right now: you’re not alone. Happy birthday, Dad. Love you forever.

A final piece of advice from Holly Butcher - written the day before she passed away from cancer at just 27: “It’s a strange thing knowing you’re going to die young. At 26, I thought I had time… To fall in love. Start a family. Grow old. But cancer doesn’t care about plans. Now, I understand how fragile life really is. Every single day is a gift, not a guarantee. I’m not writing this to scare you. I’m writing to remind you: really live. Stop stressing over little things. Be kind to your body- move it, nourish it, stop criticizing it. One day you’ll wish you had appreciated it. Go outside. Look at the sky. Feel the sun. Just be. Spend less time chasing “stuff” - more time making memories. Don’t skip moments with people you love. Laugh more. Write a note. Tell someone you love them. Complain less. Give more. Helping others brings more joy than anything you can buy. Be present. Put your phone down. Show up - really show up. You don’t need to have it all figured out. You don’t need a perfect body, or a perfect life. Just follow what makes your heart light up. Say no to what drains you. Make changes when you need to. And please - donate blood. I wouldn’t have had that extra year without it. And that year gave me memories I’ll hold close… forever. Thank you for reading this. Live your life well. And maybe… we’ll meet again someday.” Holly 🩷 Repost & share Holly’s important advice. ❤️

For 30 plus years we have been rejected by the VFL/AFL. Then we get a chance. What do we do? Do our best to undo all the work. Staggering to be honest.

As a regular viewer of Fox Footy, tonight’s coverage is terrible. Switching no good, visually all over the place. They switched to 7s half time team in the middle of their own segment. Never seen it like this. Jonathon Browns audio is half way down a well.🤔

Clayton Oliver has gone from a midfield superstar to a handy mid. Still good, but now not potentially great. I’d still have him in my side by the way. Hope he gets it back. #afldeestigers
