All Things Sport...

All Things Sport...

There are many threads dedicated to sharing experiences - good times and not so good - so I thought I would start a thread for those on here who love their sport. For me - and I suspect for some others - sport is a good distraction as it often blocks out the more negative emotions and helps to avoid triggers that many other things in 'life' so often seem to do.

This thread can also be a place where like-minded (and not so like-minded people @utopia @Former-Member @Zoe7 lol) can 'discuss/debate' their respective competitions in their preferred sport(s).

For those that are definitely NOT into sport @Phoenix_Rising for example - avoid this thread at all costs - whoops just tagged you in..........hahaha!!!!!

Re: All Things Sport...

I had to look back at what I’d written @MDT as my memory isn’t the best atm. I usually do the tour every year from the comfort of my bike in my lounge room.

Hey Sharks won!!! I’ve done my volunteer service support by officiating at an event this morning where I was abused by a coach for red carding his athlete grr

Hope your day is good.

Red cards are part of the age
The coach must learn this haha @Eve7
Good on you for officiating

@DJMasters

You must be happy with your boys last night?!?

Im disapppinted in the Blue Baggers that they couldn't get a win for Simmo's retirement game - but at least the warrior backman scores himself a game!

End end of an era for us Carlton fans 😊

Hello sports fans @DJMasters @Zoe7 @WIP @MDT @Eve7 @Former-Member and everyone else!

It's finals time in NRL and AFL as well as Suncorp Super Netball for me at least and I'm pleased to say that I'm feeling very happy this morning! My Brisbane Lions are in the winners circle after defeating Richmond Tigers last night- our first win against them since 2009! Great to be a lions supported get @Zoe7 ? St Kilda play the Western Bulldogs tonight and West Coast Eagles pkwy Collingwood Magpies. Port Adelaide defeated the Geelong Cats on Thursday night which means they and Brisbane go straight through to the preliminary finals for Week 3 before hopefully Brisbane being in the big one the following week at home at the Gabba!

We've also had the NRL start up finals this week with the Penrith Panthers winning against the Sydney Roosters and Melbourne Storm playing tonight against the Parramatta Eels. Go Storm! Oh

and the Sharks, Raiders, Bunnies and Knights are still to play this weekend in elimination finals.
As for netball, it's the Melbourne Vixens playing the Sunshine Coast Lightning (Melbourne Storm's netball affiliate team) in a spot to make it straight to the grand final with West Coast Fever playing the NSW Swifts. Go Fever and Lightning!

There's also the French Open on in tennis - no Aussies left unfortunately- so it's great to be a sports lover. I'm also aware of other sports possibly soccer also playing as well?

Have a great weekend sports lovers and may your teams win!

Re: All Things Sport...

Yes a great win by our boys @Judi9877 Every single player contributed and they thoroughly deserved to win. My Eels play tonight so will be watching that with interest. Playing at home will be an advantage but the Storm will be a tough opponent to get over - they always step up another level in finals anf our defence will need to hold up better than ever.
