We definitely aren’t calling it flemball. That sounds disgusting

If you're a rugby fan but you don't have Sky Sport, the NPC is on TVNZ+ for free and it starts tomorrow with the mighty Bay of Plenty Steamers playing some team from over the Kaimais
Zoe Hobbs just won the Commonwealth Games 100m in 10.93, a new NZ record. And the final was in torrential rain.
Currently -0.1°C in winterless Tauranga - send emergency blankets

Woke up at 1.30am this morning #NoZzzzzealand and put on the Open golf to see how it was looking - ended up watching until Ryan Fox hit the winning putt. A truly remarkable win to birdie the tricky final hole to seal a one shot win. Not often I say this but "GOLF ROCKS!!"
That's the best half of rugby I've seen the All Blacks play in quite a while. Plus Tupou Vaa'i is the new Dane Coles - could start a fight in an empty room.
To get more respect from the players, the referee for the upcoming World Cup final should dress like the ref from the first final back in 1930. And be an absolute unit ....
Reflecting back, I'm not sure the World Feed commentator greeting the winning goal in a World Cup semi-final with "Awwwww, England are in trouble now" is the neutral vibe we should be getting.
Disabled all the AI functions in Adobe Acrobat reader and it is so much better. I generate and open a lot of PDFs and it was becoming painful to scroll through them - no problem now.
That's a very late hydration break - think of the fans on the couch all parched and suffering.
Having been to the Women's World Cup group game between Argentina and Sweden, I can confirm that Argentinian fans are the noisiest. Even with the game lost, the singing never stopped.
Complained to HR as people talking loudly about work meant I missed the sound of commentator excitement and didn't get in to the meeting room to see the replay of the Spanish goal.
With my uncanny knack of accurate predicting, after 30 minutes I thought it looked like a 0-0 after extra time and a penalty shoot-out
And ended the game with zero cards! How?????
Nick Baker@nickbaker.digital · last mo.Amazingly, no Paraguay player has picked up a yellow card in this game - yet.

Reminder that Mateo Kovačić is not only a very talented footballer but he is only 32 so has another 3 World Cups to play after this one.
Cross "Ronaldo takes a shit free kick" off your World Cup bingo card.
It sounds like a quarter of the crowd are there just to watch Lamine Yamal given the gasps and roars every time he touches the ball. He actually looks a bit laboured, not at full speed to me.
