A tragic for all things Rugby League, Cricket and MotoGP. Occasionally with a bit of Football for good measure.

@mrdanwalker In an age where broadcasters love to bombard us with CGI graphics left, right and centre, I'm loving the old-school tactics chalkboard!

@LegacySiu Ultimate pub quiz question, this! Massimo Taibi

@AaronBower Whilst the Anglo-French cup sounds like a good idea, the 'renegotiation' of French clubs in Super League sounds very ominous...

Well there’s enough horrid stuff going on in the world so here’s Vic & Bob inviting Mark Lamarr to do the Mammalathon Challenge.

A pathetic 3-0 ashes loss.

Nigel Wood heads the game.

14 team super league when only 8 teams are any good.

Likely to be a 8 team playoff

10 quota players per team.

Waqa Blake is a super league player again.

The 🇬🇧 sport is in the 💩💩

Save us @NRL🙏🙏🙏

There must surely be an inquest into this series. England fronted up again for periods of today's game but, barring a moment of magic from Jez Litten, couldn't break through. A most ruthless lesson in clinical finishing from a fully firing Australia, this afternoon. #RLAshes

[ᴀᴀʀᴏɴ ʙᴏᴡᴇʀ @AaronBower]

That is a very miserable end. Theme of the series really; England squared up in patches but the quality has been desperately lacking. You suspect there will have to be some sort of inquest into this. What a missed opportunity for the game in this country.

[Ed Hocknull @EdHocknull]

In position for the final game of the series. Pride on the line boys, let's not get beaten a third time today! #RLAshes

[ᴀᴀʀᴏɴ ʙᴏᴡᴇʀ @AaronBower]

The Ashes has been a missed opportunity. But with no warm-ups or training camps all year, England needs to put the national team first going into the World Cup.

Problems with performance are clear. But the game doesn't want to give England a chance.

If you watch / listen to one thing today, let it be this - https://t.co/aPCb20M7B0 - A brilliant open and honest conversation with Man of Steel, Jake Connor. He's had quite the journey! Great work @MegWellensX and @M_Shaw1 on getting this made!

[Michael Lavelle @mikelavelle93]

The way Australia and England have treated this Ashes is like night and day. The Australians have fully immersed themselves with meeting fans etc whilst England have locked themselves away. England have got a lot wrong over the last 3 weeks.

@AmateurishRL Leeds, Cas, Huddersfield and anyone else who was supplied by Oxen in '24...bring back ISC kits

[Ed Hocknull @EdHocknull]

@WigansDannyB Happened here as well 😆 they dish it out but can't take it in return

[Ed Hocknull @EdHocknull]

@RedVeePins Hopefully that was the first of many Rugby League games to be held there. Easily the best stadium in the country!

[Ed Hocknull @EdHocknull]

Fantastic news overnight for former Saints coach, legend and - by all accounts - all-round good egg Paul Wellens. Certainly not as as bad a coach as critics would have you believe. The NRL have clearly seen good in what he does, and he'll only be better from the experience to!
