Boxing Day Test Match ? Will anywhere local be showing the highlights from the MCG 12pm-2pm


Recommended Posts

Or will I have to go to one of those ghastly Aussie bars in town to see it?


I realise that there are no doubt a number of the infinite amount of soccer fixtures that are played non-stop up and down the land to various ends that will take precedence. However if somewhere could spare 1 screen for 2 hours to for the biggest test match in the cricketing calendar between the 2 best teams in the world, well that would be nice.


I'm pretty sure there would be a number of punters interested if they knew it was on somewhere.

That sketch is exactly what was going through my mind when I wrote that post. I actually quite like football but I just get sick of there being sooooo much of it on all the time.


On the subject of cricket that test match in India is shaping up to be quite interesting.

    • I am genuinely curious… what is this obsession with keeping children active with things to do after school. From what I know, most  CV kids to rugby or football of a weekend but do they actually need activities during the week after school? What about going home, relaxing before homework and I don’t know, reading a book, drawing, Lego, constructing a car/plane.. even making some cookies…
    • The BBC is one of the finest, if not the finest, broadcasters in the world.  They have been admired by many across the world for their journalism.  There have been numerous arrests since their recent expose on convenience shops that cover ups for criminals - money laundering, contraband,  illegal workers and the like. By no means perfect and some of what they have done in the modern world is questionable - the website often comes across as tabloid or sensationalist, as do some of their documentaries, and at times it is full of low grade game shows, fly on the wall etc which bring the punters and money, including overseas, in but is not quality TV.  In their desperation for 'balance' they've given too much air time and credibility to some more extreme views, which contributed to Brexit and some of the rise in right wing parties.  I wish they'd say 'the convicted criminal' every time they talk about Yaxley Lenon. The programme was clumsy, why it didn't go through proper clearance including the lawyers, I don't know.  But it created zero stir at the time. Zero.  And had no impact on the election, so Trump has no case.  I hope they don't cave in like many of the US corporations and media.  Oh and well done to South Park using the small p*nis defence in ridiculing him. What I expect is as the Beeb is pretty centrist in it;s reporting in riles some of those who thrive on the toxic populism we have seen since Trump mark 1 and Brexit.  How sad.
