the greatest cricketer ever was Don Bradman.
absolutely agree.
I should have clarified: for allrounders, Kallis is in the GOAT conversation.
-
@antipodean I mostly agree.
There are some (Sobers) who would be up there - but Kallis has to be in the GOAT conversation.

you won't get many disagreeing with you.
and the Lions before their defence got wrecked by injury.

This is a quality game of football
Bills running game could win it for them
NFL aren't doing much to dispel the appearance of KC getting big calls their way

NFL is great entertainment. But man, you don't get this in Rugby - Mack Collins showing up for Bills Chiefs dressed as Animal

The crash or shovel ball 12 role that Jordie has taken on - its hard to tell if its a refection of his own skills, the defence he faces or the game plan but its tough to watch
his crash ball has dropped right off. Genuine crash balling would mean drawing in defenders - I don't see him doing that. With his frame, he should be a threat to run into or through the tackle. He's playing more like Havili than SBW at 12, and that does my nut given his potential upside.
I think all other top tier 12s do this better than Jordie at the moment and he’s been in the system since 2017……far too long in the tooth to talk about ‘potential upside’
when he came in he looked excellent there. But it's been shit for for a while.

Article did say talks had stalled.
That means money.
RM would love to come back for the right $$$ I'm sure. But buying him out is expensive and NZR have no money.
Right decision to not pay, but I am very disappointed at how long this has taken and how much of a distraction this has been in the media. Coaches should be publicly backing their players, not squeezing one out for an overseas player who didn't set the world on fire at Test level.

Soar with the Eagles. It’s destiny. Barkley and Hurts and a stingy defence all the way kids.
Eagles AND Crusaders. You love a certain fan base eh

A loose carry and a fumble by Andrews proved costly.
and then a drop on the 2point attempt.
That was the fumble I was referring to.
I really only take an interest at this time of the season now. I will be on Team Bills next weekend.
ah! He dropped a sitter before - well a fumble. Hadn't fumbled the ball since 2019, and he chose tonight to do it, followed by a drop. Seriously good player, but the Ravens, Lions and Texans all beat themselves.
-
this was classic! Ferry got called through a race
-
I was hoping for a LIons-Bills SB but the Lions choked.
Gutted for the Lions, but in the end I think the defense was what killed them. The turnovers get the attention - but really if you get 30+ points in a playoff game, you should win.
Defence finally fell apart. I suspect part of that made the offense push harder than they should ...and then a bad and a really bad throw from Goff.
Anyway, I'm here in my 22 Ravens Henry jersey - go the Ravens!

@antipodean I can't see Kermit without the Mahomes association. Sue me.

@antipodean said in NFL 2024:
He's too good; doesn't need to do this. But if you're the face of the NFL, you get the calls.
Doesn't help when you get highlight reel stuff like a TD throw while being tackled.
wasn't as good as Burrow's
-
Lions poised to lose at home. It's the most Lions thing ever. Some whiffs, some stuffups, some good plays by Washington. Defence optoinal.
Jayden extending plays with his legs is quality. And Dan Quinn is brave on 4th downs.
This is fun!
