Not sure if anyone has thought about this possibility in the first 3 weeks of finals but as we know extra time is played if there's a draw. If there is a draw this year, then what happens to the Interchange Cap? Do teams get a set number of changes per period (2x5 minutes)? Is 120 still the...

http://www.cairns.com.au/article/2013/10/08/248917_local-news.html I wouldn't want to hazard a guess over financial terms, but would this move be as beneficial to our on field fortunes as well?

I did the whole season last year and we'll see if we go the distance again for 2013 (and hopefully I can keep votes for each Selwood seperate). My Brownlow count uses a variety of sources (which this year will remain a mystery to all bar myself!), with a 3-2-1 count derived from the most points...

Given that he seems to want everything (own 2's team, conferences, extra games, world domination like Eddie once did), I'd like to know if this man.... is the long lost brother of.....Veruca Salt, the spoilt brat who wanted everything including what was in Willy Wonka's factory.

Scroll down to about midway through http://www.smh.com.au/sport/tomic-snr-too-handson-for-excoach-20130119-2czzm.html for the source. Don't know about his FA status, but this again highlights how much of a joke this is and that our code will become like the NRL (announcing player movements 12...

The home side are 1 up with 4 to play as International Cricket arrives at the Adelaide Oval for the last time this summer. Thankfully there looks to be some respite from the oppressive conditions felt around the country, but rain is forecast in the morning before clearing as play starts. This...

Despite the best efforts of the media and a number of Generation Y players to yet again bury the 50 over game into the sporting graveyard, we come to another 5 game bi-lateral 50 over series where the stakes are lower than what you'd find in the first at King Island on Saturday. Strange sort of...

Boxing Day in Australia means different things to different groups of people. For the rich (boat owners) and nearly famous (Jessica Watson), it's the beginning of an annual glorified cruise down the East Coast that some may not complete until the last strains of Auld Lang Syne are belted out...

It's not quite a case of coming full circle, but the combatants from the inaugural test match played in the southern most capital in Australia return close to a quarter of a century later to open what is normally the main test series in the country. History is not kind to the Sri Lankan tilt...

Can't be bothered doing a full match preview (the final XI's have changed moments before the tests both times, plus I'm at Melbourne Airport waiting to head to Day 1), but we all know the winner goes home with a Mace, and Mr Ponting calls it quits. To be honest I haven't heard a lot from the...

Thanks to a little wet weather and pitch offering little for the bowlers before the final day (and even then.....), we reach the 2nd encounter for the Heavyweight Championship of Test Cricket in a scoreless stalemate. After being left off the schedule when last the Proteas toured our shores, the...

For the first time since the 11th of December 1963, a test match team representing South Africa will set foot on The Gabba to challenge the home side. In a match best remembered for Ian Meckiff being called for throwing, not many would remember centuries in the respective first innings by...

Gone ahead and done some research on the matter after the whole Lake thing, and decided to see what the records of those clubs who had 5 or more top 50 selections from 1997-2009 were. 1997 was chosen as the 1996 draft had compromises with Port Adelaide's virtual list and Brisbane's merger...

After developing a game plan involving no forward line and then virtually discarding the best defender and betting the farm on kids, I'm convinced Brendan McCartney lacks the football intelligence that many think he has......in that vein let me introduce people who would make better coaches than...

With all of the Brownlow Guides and predictors out and about, plus to escape boredom, what I am doing is collating various votes from several selected outlets, combining them and getting a 3-2-1 for each match. I am using the following.... - The predictions from The Age's Brownlow guide - 3AW...

The last one of the year in more ways than one, given this completes the premiership season. Looks a nice day outside even though it is rather early in the morning. Was slightly cooler than normal at the equivalent game time yesterday (the breeze picked up), so conditions may not be as...

Having searched and not found a list, it may be a good time to start the official list today. Likely and speculated retirements have not been added to the list. ADELAIDE Michael DOUGHTY (Retired) BRISBANE Amon BUCHANAN (Retired) CARLTON Brett RATTEN (Coach, Sacked) Rohan KERR (Delisted)...

Miserable day in the Harbour City with no sign of the clouds abating. Rain looks like it will hang around all day. Contested ball will increase big time and scoring may be like gold, so don't expect a high scoring contest. May not be surprised if a tall goes out for a small for either side, but...

Not quite as humid as some days have been in the top end today, but still warm conditions expected tonight. Seen plenty of Bulldog members and supporters around town and not a single Suns fan so it looks like we'll have the lions share of the crowd. Haven't been up here long enough (landed at...

Clear skies in Adelaide, looks a nice day as I look out the 11th floor window of the Grand Chancellor. Hopefully we can produce a 4 quarter performance tonight.

I think I may have stumbled across this little ditty of which I altered the lyrics. Try this one out for size, we may have a novelty hit of the summer..... DRS KILLED THE INDIAN STAR (To the tune of Video Killed The Radio Star) "I saw you on the telly back in 92 The TV replay made run...

When discussing the history between New Zealand and Zimbabwe, it normally relates to parliamentary sanctions and the refusal to back the Mugabe regime. Combine this with the ultra rapid decline in Zimbabwe cricket, and we can see why that this is the first time since the 2000/2001 summer that...

It's a return to a tradition of sorts to close out the test match summer in Australia. This is only the 2nd time since the 1997/1998 season that a test match in Adelaide has been played at a time incorporating Australia Day (which falls on a Thursday for those living under a rock). The other...

VS Domestic cricket goes to the bush as Queensland head north to Mackay for their country home game against Tasmania. You may or may not have heard of Harrup Park, so you may or may not remember the 1992 World Cup match that was supposed to be played at the ground. India were due to play...

Time for the season of endurance, which for the 4th time begins at Phillip Island for the 500 km. For those new to the game, it's a unique qualifying format with driver A and driver B having their own race on the Saturday, with a pit stop for at least 2 tyres to occur during one of those races...

The full list will obviously be complete at the end of this season. But to compile the list, I have broken it down into 3 sections highlighting the 3 clubs that he coached. In quiz format, here is a chance to name the 93 players that played a senior premiership season/senior day finals match...

100 years at the brickyard for the 500. There are 41 entries looking to get one of the 33 spots on the grid, so Bump Day this coming Sunday US time (after Pole Day on the Saturday in the US) will be as busy as it has been for some time. Entered this year are... 2. Oriol SERVIA (ESP), Newman...
