Pubcast Ep 17

Back for a Grand time, we returned to the Grand Hotel in Bundaberg. The last time we recorded here there were record floods a few days later. We were a bit hesitant with some stormy weather during the day, but the day cleared up and we showed that we were not the cause of the rain. We have also put aside plans to build an ark.

Lot's is happening but before we jumped back into it after a break, we made a few announcements. Johnnyjojoshabadoo has started a new blog and gives an insight into what he is doing.

Johnyjojo also made a special mention of the Bundaberg Sports Flood Appeal that MD established and the big night we had last night.

From there is was all sport though. We may use the Simply the Best intro for the NRL but with the way the referees are expecting to be shown respect but given little to show why, it is no surprise taht we went off at bit on that front. The judiciary had a few examples this week to show it is going to be another year where they get it wrong every week. With the opening 4 rounds out of the way we also look at the scheduling of Thursday to Sunday games and what we thought.

Cricket is still lingering on and Cricket Australia gets an ear bashing after there shambolic efforts with the new contracts. Seems Queensland is no longer part of Australia when it comes to cricket.

Football gets a quick wrap with the news that Liverpool will be playing the Melbourne Victory later in the year and Johnnyjojo has put a challenge out to MD.  The finals also kicked off this weekend and the Roar are there, even though no one thought they would be. You just can;t keep Queensland out of sporting finals.

Rugby Union, and the Reds are running rampant. A tough win in NZ and the Reds are showing they are back to their hard winning best. We look at Kurtley Beale and his effort that is far from the best. And what is with that mo?

The Grey Fox drops a line and give the tips for the weekend. (Gamble responsibly).

Saturday Races:
Sydney, Rosehill - Race 7 No. 4  (number 7 is worth a dabble too)
Brisbane, Doomben - Race 8, No 14
Moelbourne, Moonee Vallley - Race 7 No 11
Sydney, Rosehill - Race 9, No 5 (if you have a few wins this is a good one to finish with)

As always we wrap it up with the Awards.

Marto goes to the Sky Sports NZ Commentary team.
Bryce - ALthough MD wanted to give it to the NRL for their judiciary shambles, we have given it to Gavin Badger this week
SSO Fail - While Johnnyjojo gave it to the idiots that decided to put Jessie Ryder in hospital, we instead gave it to the Tampa Bay Rays mascot who showed poor taste and judgement.


We finish up with a great song by Carl Wockner. Check out his site and stay tuned for a new album later in the year.  www.carlwockner.com.au
