The Racism jumped codes to the AFL with Mal Brown referring to indigenous players as 'cannibals'. And he almost got away with it cause he's old and the comment was almost passed off as purely uneducated. Then just when you thought it was over, Dipper thought he'd chime in and call Gavin Wanganeen 'not bad for an Abo'. He claimed his comment was taken out of context, but either way, after the week we've had, keep you trap shut!
Dipper...Would you take anything this man says seriously??:
The split round provided some shock upsets, with the Tigers winning again! And away in Brisbane!...The Lions are so riddled with injury the team is almost unrecognisable, but the Tig's are counting it anyway!
Oohhh etihad, your next victim is Matthew Kreuzer with an ACL season ending injury. As much as all the non Carlton fans are grateful, we are aware our teams will still ahve to play there, and are scared. But it probably wasnt the surface that caused his injury, afterall, he is a big clumsy dinosaur.
The Bulldogs have passed the tough test over in Perth with a convincing 60 point thrashing.Crad Johnson back was a welcome sign for the Dogs, who are yet to take a big scalp this season. Next week against the Hawks will be a real test of whether they are a top four team, or just an outfit that knows how to thrash the crap teams :-S.
North look like they are gettin it in, with 3 wins in a row! Hanson got 5 goals in a winning side, and Shulz did ok with 7 in a losing side for Port! Bizarrely it was a home game for North, even though it was played in Adelaide :-S....mmm your home away from home.
Moment of the round goes to one man, who is now almost 'the man!" Buddy was running towards goal from the wing , and rather than heading towards the centre, he was running into the pocket. he got as close to the boundary line as he could then dribbled it through along the ground. Five minutes later, the same thing was happening, only this time he decided to give us a bit more variety. He ran as close as he could to the bounday line in the pocket, and curved it through in the air on the most impossible angle you have ever seen! As much as we hate to admit it, its goal of the year, and possible goal of the century! Buddy was good enough to admit it might have been a fluke, but after twice in 5 minutes, he has a good case for skill!
Soccer...It's fair to say Australia are slightly screwed in the World Cup. Brett Holman was pumped after scoring for the Socceroos against Ghana. But after Kewell was sent off, Ghana equalised for a 1 all draw! The victory would have meant a safer passage for the Aussies, but with this draw, the team was sent into a mini crisis. And after the second red card to our best players in only a few games, we're starting to get suspicious with a conspiracy theory! There is a facebook group you can join: 'oh you're Australia...heres a red card!', and even Serena Williams was tweeting that our treatment by the reff was unfair. So unlike her to be having a go at umpires :-S, but we are glad she is on our side. We don't want a soccer ball in the throat eek. Would hurt more than a tennis ball.

New Zealand have done well too, drawing with Italy 1 all. But our Aussies need a big win over Serbia to stay in the running, 4 zip to be exact. Miracles can happen. All the big names are still in it, as the comp approaches the finals.
NRL...Greg Ingliss says he's not ready to forgive Andrew Johns for his racial slur last week. We don't really blame him, but most of the rugby world are still relieved its not Matthew Johns for a change making a twat of himself.
In State of origin game two, Queensland were thrashing the Blues, and then a dangerous spear tackle on Darius Boyd set off the biff!
In the regular round the Gold Coast had a narrow one point win over the Bulldogs, The Storm thrashed North Queensland, and in Monday night football the Knights have just knocked off the Eels 6 to 4 in a low scoring affair. Penrith have ended the baby Broncos run of amazing wins. Time for Alfie to get back on the table!

From that moment on every tackle on the Maroons was a spitful one, with little elbows and knees into them when they got the chance. What else can you do when nothings happening on the scoreboard *shrug*. Greg Ingliss and Folau showed off their AFL skills with spectacular high kicks and marks. It's a shame they are leaving when they are so good at Rugby, but the dollars are calling!

Cricket...Australia and England have decided to play 5 one day cricket matches in the middle of the year for some reason??..But before they do Australia had a 5 wicket win over Middlesex at Lords. White score 100 off 120 balls and Hussy got a respecatble 72 to save the day...few. Would have been embarrassing to lose to a division of England, when we have to face the whole Country soon. Bollinger picked up 3 for 24 for the Aussies, and Murtagh 3 for 45 for the home side. Shah also chimed in with 92 form Middlesex.
Netball...The team with the longest name in the business: the "Waikato Bay of Plenty magic", are into the playoffs aftter a 53-44 win over Adelaide. The Pulse almost had a cardiac arrest when they came close to winning over our Melbourne Vixens...thank God the girls held our dignity in tact, it was too close for comfort :-S.
Golf..Yes he alwasy gets his face into our blog somehow. This time for his golf...Tiger Woods has charged into contention, and was was five strokes behind leader Dustin Johnson after the US Opens third round. Lets see if he can get through this tournament without a sex scandal!

*We would like to dedicate the show to our friend Addam Stobbs who sadly passed away. Our Joy radio Guru, and teacher of 'taste of radio' courses and 'certicifate III in broadcasting'. RIP Addam.*
all that and more on the show that goes through more balls than Roger Federer.
Peace out*.
