Thank you to those who requested a look at my AMA President’s Address on Friday 25 May. It was an honour and a privilege to serve, and more importantly lead, the great organisation that helps make Australia a healthier place, a better place #auspol

WACA Ground 2.0 is a credit to those who had the vision to conceive it and those who had the courage to help deliver it. With good management it can help support participation in our game statewide and the excellence of our elite teams for the next 50 years 🟡⚫️
Date set! The new WACA Ground opens to public 1 March 2026! 🏟️🎉 A landmark transformation made possible by @WAGovernment, @AusGovInfra and @CityofPerth in collaboration with @waca_cricket and @CricketAus, and supported by @ lotterywest 🙌

I saw 4 days of test cricket this summer. Including 68 wickets! Some of it was exhilarating. Other bits exasperating and incomprehensible. And then the tripe. When did batsmen stop valuing their wicket like their life depended on it? 🏏

HEAT was released 30 years ago today. Acclaimed as one of the great crime thrillers of the 1990s, and the film that brought Al Pacino and Robert De Niro on screen together, the making of story will walk out on you in 30 seconds flat… 1/46

It was a great honour to bestow the AMA’s highest honour on Prof Murtagh 7 years ago. He did so much to help medical students of my vintage understand that GP is a specialty in its own right. I still use things I learned from his book in my practice every week @ama_media @RACGP
It was a great honour to present Emer Prof John Murtagh with the AMA’s highest honour, The Gold Medal, today in #Canberra. Richly deserved award. A giant of the specialty of General Practice and #ruralhealth

I saw Glenn McGrath’s hat-trick @WACA_Cricket. Pretty sure I saw half of Merv’s. But it does seem to me that every other one was by a Victorian? @bowlologist

A superb contest. Yet another example of the best form of cricket at its very best. @HomeOfCricket delivers yet again. Surely it’s England 2-1 but with Jadeja there, it’s still alive @bbctms @SkyCricket #ENGvIND 🏴 🇮🇳 🏏

A dreadful day I’ll never forget. Remembering the 52 victims and the millions who spent hours worrying about loved ones with the mobile network disabled. 7/7 #bombings 🇬🇧

Haven’t seen a full game for a month but that feels like a new low. Plenty of effort from Ginbey, Hough, Reid I suppose ☹️ #AFLEaglesGiants

Australia has only lost a test match at Lords twice since 1934. I’ve just been unfortunate enough to be here both times. No complaints. The side that managed the conditions better won. Always a privilege to be here. Markram superb 🏏 #WTCFinal 🇿🇦
