Cricket (and sport) tragic. Likely found voicing an opinion on something.

I'm an Aussie cheering for the Kangaroos, but that's a 10 point turnaround from the bunker. That Fiji disallowed try from obstruction was no worse than the Aussie one allowed straight after #rugbyleagueworldcup #AusvsFiji #AUSvFIJ

Context means the surrounding circumstances, background, or text that help explain an event, idea, or word. Pretty simple stuff champion.

Here, it even goes into more specific linguistical context: Linguistic Context: The words or sentences that come right before and after a specific phrase or passage. It helps make the meaning clear and prevents misunderstandings.

Wait @FOXNRL and @NRL do we need get told the final scoreboard for the Dally Ms? Would be good to know beyond the winner

That's a terrible call on the challenge. That's been called a loose carry all year. #NRLWarriorsKnights

PvL really needs to look over his shoulder at the AFL. The officials tonight really showing the NRL they're not the only incompetent mainstream sports code in Australia. Seriously what is this umpiring? Cats can't buy a free, Freo thrown them for being sneezed at #AFLFinals

Lando Norris misses the chicane entirely, makes Oscar Piastri slow down to avoid him, then pressures him next corner and passes next straight... But it's Oscar that McLaren remind to keep it clean #Monza #ItalianGP #formula1

Ready for NRL fans to prove they don't know the laws and say forward pass from Martin because it lands in front of where it was passed from #NRLPanthersTigers

Jack Cole surprised Galvin threw a short ball to Preston #NRLPanthersBulldogs

If Panthers didn't score from that, it's called a Bulldogs lost ball. Classic NRL #NRLPanthersBulldogs

My latest deep dive into the sporting world. The No.3 problem: has Marnus run out of chances? theadjustedscore.substack.co… What do the @CricketAus Aussie test selectors do for the South Africa tour #Cricket #SAvAUS

Since Adelaide 2024: Steve Smith: 1,216 runs @ 55.27 Joe Root: 1,294 runs @ 47.93 The overall batting average in Smith's Tests is just 24.55, compared with 31.05 in Root's, 26% higher. Smith is averaging 2.25x the match average. Root: 1.54x There's no comparison. #Ashes #cricket

Also worth mentioning that this is meant to be in this late career surge Root is having, and when Smith is past his best.

Late in the season, but a new weekly blog taking a look at some of the numbers attached to this week's NRL action theadjustedscore.substack.co… Plenty of interest in this week's games, and still plenty to play for

Why was Oscar Piastri on hards if they were going to pit him so early? McLaren make no sense. #DutchGP #Formula1

Sky F1 commentary is hilarious. "Russell recovering" - no, he didn't recover, he moved to block Oscar when he realised he was going to lose track position. That caused the knock on effect of Leclerc moving, then Hamilton moving to almost hit Max #DutchGP #formula1

The Penrith Panthers don't have a great Thursday night record and their opponents, the Melbourne Storm do. No Kenny, no Yeo, no Alamoti... Surely the bookies odds so heavily in Panthers favour are misleading? theadjustedscore.substack.co… #NRLStormPanthers #NathanCleary #CamMunster

Australia wonder why we have no batsmen who can build a red ball innings, meanwhile Shield pitches made to guarantee results inside 4 days. Last year's Shield run scoring chart is embarrassing, no average over 40 in the top ten. #AUSvBAN

The players who averaged 40+ with the most runs: Weatherald 40 Renshaw 49.9 Carey 43.4 Jack Edwards 52 (helped by 3/11 not outs) Green 44 Might be time for Renshaw to get a run at the top, but really we don't have better options than Weatherald. KP an outside chance?

This Pat Cummins short ball theory has failed in test cricket for 7 years, yet he persists with it. Two Bangladesh wickets this morning from balls that were pitched up, then we continually bowl short to the tail. How do @CricketAus the Australian team not learn? #AUSvBAN
