Love that the iconic voice of Peter Donegan is dotted throughout the Nadal doco series on Netflix. One of Australia's chronically underrated sports broadcasters for decades.

Kim Kardashian just staring at Martin Brundle and ignoring him on the grid walk… She knows it’s okay to use words right? @SkySportsF1 #MonacoGP

There is sufficient evidence the AFL should offer a public apology to Tom Lynch, the Richmond club and fan base for 2022

Original stand rule was bad. Coaches find ways to counter it. AFL add layers to stand rule to counter coaches. Here we are. Players and umpires confused. Ridiculous 50's sucking life out of games.

Comparing Richmond rebuilds: Under Hardwick (had 987 games experience in his fourth game as coach) - won his 8th game in his 28th as coach. Under Yze - Game 50 next week, 7 wins. Minimum games experience has been 1,452. Cause for concern?

How is it even possible to win rallies against this guy when he's hitting the ball like this? Terrifying

As a millennial, I grew up where Friday nights were on Channel 9 before 7 got the rights back. Dennis Cometti featured on all of them. He was THE voice for me growing up and one of the reasons why I’ve always wanted to become a broadcaster. The world has lost a legend. RIP 😢
Truly centimetre perfect. We'll miss you Dennis 💔

Replying to @limuzinaxd
You have no idea what it’s like to live with a chronic injury and still choose to keep going. To wake up everyday not knowing how your body will respond, searching for solutions, and fighting for something you love and give everything even when it’s so difficult. Trust me I’m the first one suffering with pain and having endless nightmares to try to find solutions every single day and for me after all stepping on a tennis court, makes worth everything every time. So I’ll keep trying. Because it’s all about trying and that won’t change. I’ll always try one more time. I’m doing this for my passion and for myself. And if there’s even a 1% chance to keep going, I’ll take it. That’s just how I see and understand life. If you don’t like it, you don’t have to follow me. And I’m so sorry to inform you I won’t retire so you’ll keep seeing me for a while. Change channel next time.

If this weekend doesn’t show you again why #DavisCup, and #BJKCup for that matter, needs to go back to the home and away format then I don’t know what does. Atmospheres, narratives, national pride. It’s magical.

It was a privilege to witness the historical achievement of ⁦@carlosalcaraz⁩, who became the youngest man to win the Career Grand Slam in tennis history. #Alcaraz, at 22 yrs, 272 days, is also the youngest man to win 7 majors. He’s won 7 of last 14 Grand Slam tournaments.
