Looking back, it’s extraordinary how Lloyd Cole managed to rhyme Eve Marie Saint with On the Waterfront.

Must admit, was a little surprised to hear @116sen’s Simpson declare in the first quarter that Melbourne was ‘not up to it’. Seemed a tad early.

Just show the game, @7AFL. Virtually missed a goal cos of copious over-analysing. So tedious.

Regardless of the decision, Stokes should keep his hands off the batter.

Channel 7 continually failing at its primary job: showing the game. Consistently misses centre bounces cos replays and ‘analysis’. Plus talking over game with endless discussion of contracts and who is returning when from injury. KISS.

Perhaps it’s a desperate need for positivity, but this has been my favourite post-Ashes article so far.

Thought we were doing well at @MelbourneAFLW with the great Paxy Paxman, but Swans have a Zippy Fish and a Sargent-Wilson. Too good.

RIP the legendary David Stratton who not only was monitored by ASIO for suspected communist sympathies but also once gave a film - 'The Replacements' - zero stars because "It is a film which celebrates strike-breakers and scabs". Read the transcript here: letterboxd.com/margaret_davi…

Huge American-style utes are damaging our roads, reducing safety, and increasing emissions. “In Europe they’re introducing measures to discourage people from driving these big utes... "In Australia we’ve got subsidies for them.” - Richard Denniss, Executive Director #auspol

Need a mood booster today? Read this terrific story by @lucy_carroll about the positive impacts of evidence-based practices including explicit teaching in eight @NSWEducation schools, where students are being given the keys to a high quality of life. Blue Haven, The Entrance, Budgewoi, Gorokan, Toukley, Northlakes, Brooke Avenue and Wamberal Public Schools are showing what’s possible in a change steadily taking place across the system.

Aided and abetted by negligent commentators, neutered umpires and spineless administrators, time wasting is metastasising in front of our eyes, from London to Jamaica. Lunatics running asylum. Time to cut out the perpetrators of this crime against Test cricket. #ENGvIND #WIvAUS

For a start, Jadeja needs to pull his head in and put on his gloves at the non-striker’s end. #ENGvIND

Cricket commentators with their media passes, air conditioning and free lunches who ‘90 overs a day doesn’t matter, so long as it’s quality cricket’ can rack off. #ENGvsIND

Some 100 private jets will fly to Venice for Jeff Bezos' wedding, and I recycle yoghurt cup lids.
