Some personal news…I'm back in journalism. After a wonderful break from the craft I am rapt to join The Age as a senior reporter. I suspect the title references my hairline & aching joints but, nevertheless, I look forward to chasing down some yarns. https://t.co/v17Yi7Y1U6

Massive home ground advantage letting the Swans play on an ice rink. Surely AFL should not be played on the SCG again for a very long time. #AFLswanscats

Yay, it’s Thursday night, can’t wait to relax and watch the footy. Oh, it Essendon…again. Think I’ve got some housework I need to do and some sleep to catch up on. #afldonsgiants

Some games of footy are just not worth 4 points. Winner of this terrible snoozefest should get 1.5 points at best. #AFLSaintsBlues

Hi @Spotify - is there anyway to remove to songs your smart shuffle adds to playlists? That thing is awful and completely ruins playlist. Please tell me there’s a simple ‘undo’ button somewhere

Says a lot about Kohli’s nature that he has to resort to bullying tactics against a teenager at the first sign of pressure. Brilliant cricketer when things go his way. Pathetic bully when they don’t. Should feel humiliated at his actions.

How is this Matthew Potts bloke allowed to grunt when delivering the ball? Gotta be off-putting and should be a no-ball every time #ENGvAUS

Game on the line and Cody Weightman is too busy flopping & trying to con the umpire. Play the ball son. #afldogsblues

Wonder if Sam Draper now regrets mocking the umpires earlier this season. All good for Dons fans to whinge about what was a bad decision tonight, but surely there’s wider context here they need to think about. #AFLCatsBombers https://t.co/MAaYA8gaaE

Does holding the ball or incorrect disposal even exist anymore? Suns are taking the piss #aflsunscats

Geez Matt Rowell is given a long time to get rid of the ball in any old fashion he chooses #aflsunscats

Hi @metrotrains - any chance you can tell us what’s happening with Williamstown/Werribee line? Platforms have lots of people, no trains, & announcements changing minute-by-minute.

Stokes knew he’d dropped that, yet still tried to claim it by taking the review. How does that sit with all his talk of moral superiority? #Ashes23

Call me a traditionalist, but I preferred it in the pre-Bazball the old days when England got a brand new ball at 80 overs, not 32. #Ashes23

Bairstow keeps in his crease about as well as he keeps wicket. One is of the most basic things to do in cricket when you have a habitual wanderer. Can only blame himself. #Ashes23

Amazing that Bairstow can catch a pitch invader, but can’t catch a cricket ball. #Ashes2023

Massive send offs by the English players at fall of the last couple of wickets. Pope’s pointing at the dressing rooms in particular was disgraceful. If Aussies did that they would quite rightly be called out for it. #Ashes2023

@criprights It was to make clear that these obligations aren’t new. Practitioners have always been expected to use their professional judgement and follow best available evidence. And that they also have the right to conscientious objection. Watch the full clip
