How do we measure the Exit stat? Why is it important? youtu.be/zCeVRE9OpS0

Rugbycology is a new database for rugby union that makes it possible for every schools and club team around the world to measure and compare performance. youtu.be/GN14D13FekQ @squidgerugby.bsky.social @ekrugby.bsky.social @linebreakrugby.bsky.social @bloodandmud.bsky.social @rugbykino.bsky.social

And off we go!

Amazing how the ugliest building in any Australian city will always be the Murdoch buildings. #Melbourne

Hey @australianlabor.bsky.social and @albomp.bsky.social are you still going to pretend a country that is celebrating military action on its own citizens shares values with us. How you answer will determine your next election result. If this doesn’t offend you you can’t be trusted with our votes.

Oooh so maybe JOC at 10 and Jorgensen at 15… Looking forward now to #Wallabies squad announcement.

#auspol Are there any organisations mobilising to march against coal/gas/billionaires not paying tax?

@jontybush.bsky.social is there a groundswell of people willing to march against coal and gas companies not paying tax and the billionaire class doing same?

@davidpocock.bsky.social we marched for Palestine and some marched for white Australia. In the newfound spirit of mobilisation, how about a march for taxing the super wealthy and fossil fuel companies?

Wallaroos like Wallabies the week before paying a heavy price for missing an easy conversion. So close. Now to prepare for the monster. #rugbyworldcupW

Not to be uncouth, but here is that cunt Elon Musk these days?

Yep, there it is. I am suddenly very excited about the rugby World Cup W. Cmon Wallaroos we back you all the way!

The Sports back page of the @theaustralian.bsky.social today featured not one but 3 rugby union articles and had to concede that the Liberal party is why labour keeps gaining in polls. It must be a hard Monday.

Good point.

So, does Paisami and Toole get a look-in, with Gleeson and Valetini starting. We must get all players exposed to manic pressure environments and Paisami and Toole and Gleeson needs this badly.

Be interesting to see #Wallaby side for CT game. Surely Paisami and Toole needs game time? Hooper to start and Valetini to finish? Or Wilson rested?

Albanese government - in particular Penny Wong, flat out lied about supplying military parts to Israel. We’re all sick and tired of being lied to. #Auspol #Israel #FreePalestine @davidshoebridge.bsky.social @albomp.bsky.social @senatorwong.bsky.social

How predictable that the ‘Liberal’ Party, a far right ideological cell to advance Rupert Murdoch’s fascist agenda, should turn the recognition of Palestinian statehood into another front of their manufactured culture wars. Those people are despicable.

The wildest thing about this era is watching so many institutions say out loud yeah, we’re done committing ourselves to excellence, we’re going to specialize in the coddling of mediocre white men

Ok has anyone introduced AI to religion yet? First religion, then booze.

Dear world rugby, can we please sort out the advantage rule. 1 is where trangression occured. 2 is where the advantage played to. Then back to 1 for a penalty?

I wish for simple things. Like for people to stop using the Oprah Winfrey 'you get a, you get a' joke that was never really funny. #oldfart #havestandardsman

@susiedent.com what are we going to call that awkward moment in Adli/Lidl when a new lane is opened yet customers still have to wait for a cashier to arrive? I feel it's significant.

Its not beyond the IDF to have arranged the Melbourne attack. Odd how quickly Netenyahu was onto it- almost as if it was arranged. Great way to win sympathy for the devil.

If you are feeling bad as an Aussie #rugby fan. We are in good company. Ominously for the Tahs, the Lions won their next game 71-31...

Reayy good Reds side for the Lions game selected!

Sometimes I wish voting was like the stock market. You can lend a party your vote if you believe in them, but withdraw it immediately if they go bonkers. @albomp.bsky.social I would immediately withdraw any vote I lent your war mongering party.

Lions averaging a 44 Outcomes score currently. Its good, but its not great yet. Calculated based on: 1) Ability to move forward 2) Ability to reduce risk 3) Ability to convert opportunties to points.

Force amazingly start 10 attacks in Lions 22 and score once. But camping in that zone is sometimes as valuable as scoring in the first half. Problem is the Lions lineout D is now galvanised.

Odd to hear Turinui and Horan argue that the Lions kicked against Argentina due to defensive pressure. Kicking is no longer a reactive part of the game. You kick to get other incomes.

#InternationalLaw #YouKnowItsTrue

@davidpocock.bsky.social if the government you are a part of now condones the collapse of international law, can you still hold citizens to account for tax and property laws? Or is it just the wild west now?

So @albomp.bsky.social if governments no longer have to abide by rules and laws, why do I have to pay tax and why can I not just take another mans property?

Nice article from Huw, the thoughts I have: 🏉 I guess there’s also a general positive opinion on the Lions from a former Tri Nations perspective as an ultimate challenge 🏉 Money talks - people may say they don’t like it, but a substantial number of people still pay to see it

I ask myself who I would rather be enslaved to between Trumps Us, Putins Russia or Jinping. Modern China of course.

The petty cruelty of the Right never ceases to amaze me. www.theguardian.com/australia-ne...

Labor is completely captured by gas interests. Against warnings from scientists and even their own ministers, they waved through fracking the Beetaloo for a foreign company. 🇦🇺 deserves enviro laws that work-and a govt with the backbone to enforce them www.theguardian.com/environment/...

So the real rulers of the world gave us Trump as a means to make us long for the status quo before it. Returning to that status quo will be seen as victory, yet the world was broken long before Trump. Inequality & damage to natural environtment are but two aspects that were never sustainable.

Another remarkable view down 5th Avenue. Tens of thousands united in saying no to Trump, no to ICE, no to fascism and #NoKings. (🎥 Unheard Voices)

AUKUS was a platform for short-lived politicians to strut the world stage leaving future generations to pay for submarines that will never arrive.

It’s wild that most rugby teams and apparel brands either completely ignore classic jerseys in favour of over-engineered technical apparel, or make them hideously ugly in an attempt to make them appeal to fat men in their 50s who still wear SuperDry hoodies. Meanwhile, over at the French Open…

There can be no new fossil fuel www.abc.net.au/news/2025-06... Australian Youth Climate Coalition WA organiser Jordan Rowand agrees. "every other state’s emissions have gone down since 2005, so the work that we have to do in Western Australia is a lot… we have some big fights ahead of us,"

Dog walking with the sound of Kookaburras in the background!

How close is the ACT league! @davidpocock.bsky.social #brumbies #rugby

Reds could not make it work, but the club game is on and we keep believing. #hospitalcup #rugby #australia

I made a conscious decision a few years back not to analise the Reds, and instead leave them as the one team I can follow merely as a fan. Today I realise the folly of my decision. Loving a team is far harder than observing from a cold distance. My nerves are shot for tonight. #CRUvRED

Australia is spending around $500 billion on a few inflexible, probably obsolete, nuclear powered submarines. It’s time to dump AUKUS.

Been a pleasure over 2 years to track the rise of Flynn McDermot - brother of Tate, as he develops his game at UQ. Nothing stops him from overtaking the older sibling... #rugby #Queensland #Reds

When you are in non-rugby union Queensland and suddenly this pops up on the menu....
