Raise a cheer , raise a cheer for the boys who brew the beer.
In the cellars of old Fort Street school.

Geez Kerry, or someone like him, would make a great Chairman for the Tigers. Call it as you see it and if you don’t like it then f… off. . And not a fedora in sight.
🤣

Like or loathe Packer he certainly called a spade a shovel.

Henson Park. Deliberately slipped to miss tackles many times when playing for Fort Street there. I was ahead of my time, Daine Laurie and Moses Mbye both adopted the deliberate slip style.

Winner, winner!! ✅

With another Ashes Test starting tomorrow, this caught my eye today, reminding me about the sport in former days, light bats, no body protection and no covers on the pitches:

On November 2, 1931, Don Bradman, the great Aussie batter made 256 runs. He hit 14 SIXES, and 29 FOURS throughout the innings.
The most interesting part is that Bradman took only 22
balls, of three eight-ball overs, to amass 100 runs in that match!!
You can see the breakdowns in the image below.

Like most super successful people do.
