Yeah I love the stan highlights for pretty much each game over the weekend and have one game on if I'm home. I know at least quite a few chums who do the same. I did watch the ABC coverage but jeez it was dull. Started Louise Ransom's sporting TV career iirc and a few others.

Sorry if aready posted - Wallaroos coach appointed today. English coach Jo Yapp. First female coach at a national level in any code in Aus. Not that AFL has a national team.... Some green shoots this week.
