We took all 3 points and I reckon that just about wraps up the league....
A couple of my mates who are Arsenal fans are calling themselves the new Tottenham "Allergic to winning trophies"

Whenever they get a potential sniff these days at winning anything they piss it away.

They may have overtaken the Wallabies - but it would be close
I get there’s some old school leeg vs union types on here, but seriously how much hyping, marketing or rating of the Wallabies have you seen in the last 20 years???
In fact the lack of marketing is what has largely killed them in that time

What is there to hype up in Union.

Its boring & shit to watch and the worst sporting code in the country.

Someone mentioned to me on Monday the Super Rugby has been back for 2 weeks. I thought he was taking the piss.

I was like really i haven't heard anyone mention it or even realised the super rugby had actually started up again.

The NRL Trials have got more coverage then that shit.

A Triple M radio host has been forced to apologise after comments made about the Matildas on air were widely criticised.

Marty Sheargold, appearing on the show that carries his name on Monday, said he "would rather hammer a nail through the head of [his] penis" than watch the Matildas play in next year's Asian Cup.

Football Australia said it was "deeply disappointed by the unacceptable remarks" while calling for more responsible reporting on women's sport.

Sheargold's rant came alongside co-hosts Troy Ellis and Will Ralston during a news bulletin about the Matildas' recent defeats in the SheBelieves Cup.

"There's something wrong with the Matildas. They had that wonderful tournament out here where we all fell in love with them, even though they didn't make the quarters," Sheargold said of the Matildas' 2023 World Cup campaign, in which they made the semifinals.

"You know what they remind me of? Year 10 girls. All the infighting and all the friendship issues, 'The coach hates me and I hate bloody training and Michelle's being a bitch.'

"Now, I'm sorry to undermine the whole sport, but that's what I think of it so you can stick it up your arse."

Of the SheBelieves Cup, Sheargold said "she believes in what? It better be men".

After making his declaration about the Asian Cup, Sheargold finished off by asking "got any men's sport?"

Sheargold's co-hosts laughed throughout the segment, but Triple M allegedly received a number of complaints after it aired.




In the unexpected cross-over for culture warriors - Sheargold also appears in ABC TV comedy Fisk.

I dont think i have ever found Marty Sheargold remotely funny.

His punishment should be actually doing what he said he would and hammering a nail through the head of his penis.

Now that would be funny

That’s why I questioned the Wallabies as being overhyped.
