Dan Houston happy to nail Izak Rankine when he wasn’t looking but not too keen to stand under that ball with Naughton coming through… #AFLDogsPies

Good morning all on this Anzac Day when we Australians remember all who served Australia, the families of our killed & wounded, on the anniversary of the day the 1st Australian Imperial Force landed at Gallipoli in 1915. It has been commemorated ever since. "Lest We Forget"

There are no players in this #Ashes2025 test match who deserve dumping, none! But the #MCG curator Matt Page should be sacked before this Test is over!!!!
(If that's even possible seeing that the game won't last till 6pm today!)
What a shocking spectacle. He's made some very average bowlers look like superstars. And some superstar batsmen look grade level. Thanks for stuffing up the series and a once great #BoxingDay2025 Test. Appalling. I'm off to the beach. @2SM1269

Thirty wickets in just over four sessions. But never has this felt exciting. More TikTok cricket than Test cricket #Ashes

Not only is Adelaide Oval the best cricket ground in the world, it also has the best curator who know how to set a decent pitch for test cricket.

This pitch is a joke .. This is selling the game short .. The players / Broadcasters and more importantly the fans .. 26 wickets in 98 overs !!!!! #Ashes ..

ADEL in 2025 the first side to play 2+ games in a V/@AFL finals series and not win a quarter

Defying all predictions, the Liberals have taken Prahran from the Greens at today's by-election!
Under their disgraceful leadership, the Greens have become a party of hate, division, disruption and racism.
So glad to see that disgusting party lose.

Man, I hate this. Think of all the genuine fans who are missing out. Instead you’ve got people bragging about “oh I’ve been to 57 grand finals in a row” - like, ordinary fans who’d sever a limb to go are fighting for one of 17,500 or whatever seats. It’s just mind blowing.

"If I had have been the leaders (at Adelaide) I would have supported him externally. You can’t throw him under the bus to the media, he’s a young kid. It's your job, it’s your obligation as a leader to help guide him."

Really glad Matisse didn't get picked to help guard all of Canada's threats so Delly and Joe can sit there and wave towels.

Reminder that the AFL Grand Final is held at the MCG not because of size or tradition but because 70% of tickets are for sponsors, corporates and political connections and Victoria operates under a weird sport-politico-industrial complex utterly absurd to the rest of the country.
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
This is incorrect - only 5-30% of seats are for “AFL Entitlements/Contractual Obligations,” not 70%

That MCC footage is hilarious and could only be provided by a nation that still has a House of Lords and can’t see why any other normal country would regard them as a massive pack of wankers
