My Teams Update


With NRL starting up 2 weeks ago, this week's loss 18- 28 against the Broncos and the loss the week before to the Sea Eagles loss 24-36.  They are currently on the 15th on the ladder, with Roodters to play next Friday night. Hopefully, the win here will kickstart the year for them.




Western Sydney Wanderers just won against Perth Glory 2-1 at Perth, jump to the top 6th, Next game will be Macarthur Rams - who are in 3rd place. This is where we really to win and we could climb back up the ladder and end up as 5th, following Sydney FC, where I hope we make the game turn our way.




Tottenham Hotspurs are 5th on the EPL ladder with a great win 4 - 0, against Aston Villa (who are 4th), Tomorrow we play Fulham, who are 12th on the ladder. If Aston Villa lose and we win, we could jump into 4th position




Paris Saint Germain is stop on top with 56 points, 10 points clear of Brest. Monday, they play against Montpellier who is 12th on the ladder, so we will see how they end up.




The Western Sydney Giants AFL Team 2024, what can I say. The team is coming first as they have played 2 rounds. A week ago, they beat the grand finalists of 2023 Collingwood, 114 - 82 and yesterday, the North Melbourne team 121 to 82. Next week they play West Coast Eagles in WA. It is good news that there are 2 Sydney team in the top 2 of the AFL table. Early days yet.
