This is a weekly feature, which will be posted every Tuesday. "The Bain Shame" will be posted directly after this, it will also be done every Tuesday. Enjoy!! -Bain.
As always, this blue blooded male decided to sit in front of the box and indulge in all 8 NRL games for the weekend and also a few Super 15 Rugby matches, an NBA playoff match and of course I just flicked past the Netball. I did also see some quirky sporting plays and I will give them our all new "The Bain Shame" at the end of this blog.

| Oh, Honest bro, I didnt do nefing!!! |
First off lets get onto the NRL. As many of you know by now-
a field of monkeys dressed in black could do a better job than those knobs at certain times in the season. However, due to geographical constraints, many of us are forced to support our home team. They suffered yet another expected loss against the Manly Sea Eagles this weekend, 20-10. Im not going to even get into this. Ivan Cleary needs to go. The Warriors seem to be useless without Manu, its just all going downhill unless they sort it out. I guarantee you, today they will just be back at training, running about like there is nothing wrong. Ivan will be pushing them too hard- which any thick skinned Warriors fan knows is the wrong way to go. The warriors are a team that need to be given artistic license with their game. Push them too hard, they crumble under the pressure and the Australian imports have to drag the rest of the team along by maintaining some sort of decent +/- scoreline when they lose.
Cleary- go find a cheese grater and take it to your nether-regions. Maybe then you'll stimulate growth and you'll grow some balls to get things done or stand down.
In other news in the NRL, there was
EXCEPTIONAL biffo in the Para' Eels v Doggies match- the ref's were trigger happy this week in referrals on report.. Hot off the press from the NRL judiciary is that there have been these following suspensions handed down:
- Grade 2 striking charge on Payne and will miss two games with an early guilty plea. Payne faces a Grade 3 careless high tackle for his hit on the Eels fullback and will miss his side’s match against the Rabbitohs if he takes the early plea.
- Wests Tigers forward Chris Heighington was charged with a Grade 2 careless high tackle on Titan Greg Bird in the 36th minute of their clash and could miss his side’s Friday night game with the Broncos.
- Knights’ Steve Southern, Sharks’ Paul Gallen and Raiders Josh McCrone were all handed Grade 1 charges but will all be free to play if they take the early guilty plea.
In the Rugby this weekend, nothing much happened other than another plethora of overkill in the Rugby scene worldwide, making it a sport that has far too much market saturation and when the World Cup comes around they will even be selling All Blacks dog muzzles, along with every other goddamn product they can rape for branding.
The Blues smashed the Warratahs 31-17 at Eden Park over the weekend, but the stadium was miserably empty because of the torrid weather. Is this a sign of things to come with the minnows' matches at the RWC?

In the
NBA, playoff season got into full throttle. For those of you who are narrow minded maggots, this is the time you should start to pay attention to the big guns in the game because this is where it counts. High flying teams such as the
Spurs, Lakers and the Celtics have all suffered early losses in their match-ups in the first round, but there is still time for them to come back. This blogger is getting on the bandy right away when the finals series comes along- fo' sho' !
As for the netball, well, they are a bunch of raving Lesbians anyway. So keep on munchin', girls.
