Aussie Sports Thread - NRL, AFL or A League

Adelaide with a good 3-2 home win tonight. WSW had so many shots & came back to draw twice but Adelaide got the decisive goal late on.

[SB]

Yeah I agree. I’ve got a soft spot for them & the Mariners.

Good to see Newcastle doing well. It’s been a long and tough time for them with ownership issues.

Just watched the 2nd half of Newcastle vs Sydney in the A League which Newy won 2-0. They have some decent young players coming through.

Just watched the highlights of the Brisbane Perth game in the big bash. Watch the highlights if you haven’t already seen them. Amazing game. Ridiculous chase by the heat. That must be a record for the number of 6’s in a game.

Crickets fun at the moment. Watching the ashes while living in England is making it extra enjoyable.

I watched the Big Bash match live & it’s the best match ever I’ve ever seen. 18 x6’s each, a record run chase, highest partnership in BBL history, over 550 runs scored, an absolute joy to watch.

Come back in a couple of years and there will be a couple of 20 storey towers towering over everything - and if you have a lazy $15M hanging around you can snag a 3-bedder top floor !

I’d have to free up some assets first but next would be robbing a bank

I havenÂ’t been around that area for 30 odd years I imagine.

I’ve been impressed with the level of the WBBL & they are definitely getting better with fielding. Still too many catches going down in general but the quality of catches being taken has improved. Hobart & Perth in the final on Saturday

[SB]

Yeah ... giant hole in the ground right now

Over the colour, wow. That’s next level petty. I hope they can still manage to have a good season. I always liked Benji Marshall. Hope he stays amid all the chaos.

Yeah agree - Benji is one good all round dude -

[bacon]

Is that the one on Victoria Rd?

Yeah ... giant hole in the ground right now

Pretty much, there's never ending resentment about 'working together' between Tigers & Magpies dinosaurs even after all these years, petty squabbles always seem to end up in major fallouts. They bang on about how it doesn't affect the manager and the team - complete BS - of course it does.

Its made worse this time around as I reckon 99% of Wests Tigers fans/members would say progress was finally being made across the board, the trigger this time around is that the HBG group didn't like the amount of orange in this years kit - laughable really if it wasn't so pathetic. You could tell just by talking to all the old timers in the area how positive everyone to finally see a competitive team getting on the park this coming season - now everyone is miserable as **** - haha

Just up the road from me the old Tigers club that was there for years is finally being redeveloped into flats - including shopping area and a replacement Leagues club which will be great. But, because HBG have the majority ownership in Wests Tigers they arent even naming the Tigers club the Tigers club - it will be Wests Ashfield - Rozelle Community club or something inane like that that - so damn petty.

What’s the deal with the board always causing trouble for the tigers. Is it down to it being two clubs put together and they can’t work together.
