What athlete’s expression will stay with you the rest of your life?

Got a new bat made that I can pick up easier post-wrist surgery, and Pia wanted to help me break it in (with some ripping leggies)

Is there lead paint in resin jewellery?

There’s a Malcom Tucker type watching this and inventing new ways of swearing we never thought imaginable

Cultural safety according to “The Australian” and the Albanese government they lead by the nose

If you don’t love me at my first 1:35 of Taxes by Geese, you don’t deserve me in my second 1:43 of Taxes by Geese

We’re closer to the third new ball than the second. Danger time

England playing five dimensional chess now

Yes, but look at that run rate #ashes

I was recently voted to captain my cricket team, but now I have to have a surgery that rules me out for the season before a single ball is bowled

No one is more disappointed than @meganmaurice.bsky.social that Woakes didn’t face a ball

Gang of Youths are The National that we have at home

My blueprint for withstanding a Mitch Starc onslaught is simply to stay off strike and have Hazelwood completely rearrange my stumps almost immediately

I’ve woken up to the news that trailing by 600 and getting 6 ducks in their first innings is the more mature and nuanced version of Bazball. Exciting times

The English commentators have now mentioned Ben Duckett’s commitment to his dog and his daughter, in that order, 3 times

Somebody stole the bike rack off my bike while it was locked up outside the station. It wasn’t even a good one but I guess they had Allen keys and specific needs

Pia and I had our first net sesh of the preseason. Her first season with the hard ball and longer pitch. She nicked me off twice and beat my outside edge 3 times, so I think she’s going to do just fine

Dismayed at @meganmaurice.bsky.social’s lack of faith in right arm off spin this morning. Best way to clean up the tail when they’re going the tonk

Sydney is First Slip Melbourne is Midwicket Brisbane Point Adelaide is Mid-on Perth is Deep Fine Leg

Megan just told me what a grub Billy Slater’s been and I’m so damn fired up in time for origin

he's the guy who oversaw the AFL getting knee deep into sports betting and then took a plumb job as the head of one of the gambling companies. this is what one of australia's misery barons looks like

groimes you haeve to come get me at Geetmo

Reggie Watts addresses Thom Yorke’s statement on Palestine and it’s good

There’s a feeding frenzy of figbirds in the camphor laurels next door

This is one of the stupidest things in sport that I’ve ever seen and yet I’m not surprised to see James Magnussen involved

weird how it's always cops and the church, never the people running drag queen story time.

Tamika Upton has just been sidestepped into a corncob

Tamika “turnstile” Upton

Orson Krennic: You haven’t been talkin to Luthen Rael have ya?

If Andor and Rogue One were the original material to work with, and then they came up with every subsequent Star Wars movie I would lose my mind

Something they don’t tell you about Ireland is that they have some subtly beautiful birds like this Wheatear

In a nutshell. #LouisTheroux #Israel #IDF #IOF

Happy 80th anniversary of Hitler killing himself in his bunker to all who celebrate, which, as I now understand it, is not everybody

Palestinians are not “facing” starvation. They are being starved to death by Israel. Yet our government still refuses to end all arms sales and implement sanctions, granting endless impunity for Israel's crimes against humanity. End the blockade — and stop the genocide.

I’m now a guy who can say, “yes, I’ve seen a puffin”

Of all the towns and cities in Ireland I have been to, Sligo is certainly one of them

I’m in the wild north west of County Donegal, and I have somehow found myself in an Irish themed pub

I’m in the Scottish distillery town of Oban and the whole place smells like fish and chip oil and that’s no bad thing

Pretty 𝔹ℝ𝕌𝕋𝔸𝕃𝕀𝕊𝕋, thanks for asking

I’ll be in Ireland in a couple of weeks and I’m not emotionally prepared to see so many American tourists, or be mistaken for one either

Used Cars Sell

I think this game would be closer if the English women could go on little walks between Bondi & Coogee #jillaroos

You have to really love cricket to keep turning up after days like today. 3 dropped catches off my bowling and a very obvious caught behind turned down.

There have already been thousands of words written on Marty Sheargold & his sexism, so I’ve tried to focus this piece on the attitudes that “jokes” like this reflect and how they are allowed to flourish

There was a fracas in the game next to us this weekend. The cops were called. Teams might get sanctioned and we might have to play in a semi final when we just want to kiss the season goodbye
