Welcome


Good evening, Australia, and welcome to television this blog.

Recently, while reading a report on an A-League match on the website of the Australian edition of the Guardian, I read the following description of the Central Coast Mariners’ performance in the Asian Champions League: “…the Mariners were as enigmatic as a badger in a pince-nez and jauntily-worn fedora…”. I’m still at a loss as to what badgers wearing hats has to do with anything, but the line has convinced me that anyone can try their hand at this sportswriting caper. Here, I will review matches from the AFL and the soccer World Cup, analyse statistics and tactics, and write about my special subject – the nexus between sport and politics.
