COME SAID THE MOOY

Good news for Socceroo Aaron Mooy, helping Huddersfield Town break a 93-day drought and helping them to a 1-0 win over Wolves this morning (AU time.)

Substituted into the game in the 80th minute, Mooy entered the field when scores were locked at 0-0. With Huddersfield already planning their next season in the Championship, only the true believers would have predicted that the Terriers would come home with all the points.

Enter Aaron Mooy. At the 91st minutes, Mooy danced around his opponent, charged towards the 18-yard box allowing Steve Mounie to get one at the back of the net. Huddersfield has only won three games in the Premier League this season and is still on the bottom of the table.

There is a positive in that t they have now managed to beat Derby’s 2007/2008 Premier League worst points total of 11

SHOCK! CRONULLA SHARKS SUSPECTED OF DOING SOMETHING DODGY

The Sydney Morning Herald is reporting this morning that the NRL’s audit of the Sharks servers has revealed traces of more than just the one single salary cap problem.

The Sharks are staring down the barrel of a possible cut of $500,000 in the clubs salary cap once the Australian Rugby League Commission meets on Thursday.

The board of the Cronulla Sharks met last night to discuss how they could possibly handle any fine and salary cap restrictions.

Cronulla already has a fine of $800,000 from last year over emails from previous officials with former coach Shane Flanagan during the ASADA scandal.

With star Josh Dugan sidelining himself for mental health issues, number one ticket holder Scott Morrison looking likely to lose the upcoming election and the Sharks set for another kick up the backside from NRL HQ, it’s not a happy time down in the shire.

 

 

TOO SOON?

FOX Sports US LA Clippers home court announcers Ralph Lawler and Don MacLean (not the singer of American Pie) found themselves in an awkward situation in their broadcast of the Clippers v Bucks match yesterday (AU Time)

Robert “Tractor” Traylor tragically passed away at the age of 34 and when the broadcast posted a graphic about Traylor ’s trade from the Mavericks to the Bucks for Dirk Nowitzki and Pat Garrity.

Enter the crappy banter.

“Who’s he play for now?” Lawler sarcastically asked MacLean, with his response “The Detroit YMCA Over-40 league.”

Later in the broadcast, the duo apologized after being informed by a producer that the one time first-round NBA draft pick died of a heart attack eight years ago.

BIFFO AT FIRST SIGHT

Prime-Time biffo was back on Channel 9 last night as a simple rumour between the couples of Married At First Sight led to a confrontation between bride Cyrell and Martha.

In scenes that would be better suited for the Jerry Springer show, Cryell grabbed Martha by the neck of her robe before a producer jumped in to separate the two.

(Although the Producer knew the show was sitting on a gold mine)

“What is Neds doing reporting on Married at First Sight,” you ask?

Well, we actually have a market for the show.

That’s right, you can actually bet on how many couples stay together by the time of the final commitment ceremony episode.

Four Couples are currently the hot favourite at $1.15

Unfortunately, we are not offering a market on who Cyrell will get into another dust-up with at this stage.
