Another great week of sport is here. We have the final state of origine game in which Queensland face a very tough challenge to win the game back home in Brisbane. I am more than a little hesitant to smash the maroons.

Ricky Ponting is to busy sooking about the English team for playing slow to realise that he alone cost Australia any chance of wining! Get over it punter and concentrate on the next game which starts Thursday at Lords. A ground on which Australia have not lost a game on since 1934!

Then we have the British Open also starting Thursday night at Turnberry. 14 Aussies will press their case to loft the Claret Jug high in the air and bring it in close for a kiss and a cuddle. I am nearly getting sick of pushing the Adam Scott bandwagon as he has continued to disssapoint in majors for so long but this time perhaps we are at a cross roads. Last year Norman was strutting around with his new wife and played well… this year Scott is strutting around with new girlfriend Ana Ivanović. Surely this will get him home.

Last of all we have the first tri nations game between Australia and the Kiwis Saturday night. I am no where near as interested in this game as I used to be but I will be watching just in case a decent game breaks out.
