15:13 Personally I hope Quade Cooper joins the Roosters. I'd love to see him teamed up in the halves with Daniel Mortimer for Newtown. #
15:11 The ball is in Quade's court. RT @QantasWallabies: OFFICIAL STATEMENT: ARU statement regarding Quade Cooper - http://t.co/u7xNrEOj #

21:49 As this AAP report says, Joey joins "the illustrious list of Immortals which is a brand owned by Rugby League Week." http://t.co/bjT0LEtl #
21:46 @Bondiborn @nehadk the Tour de France is an actual sporting event. The Rugby League Week Immortal is not. #
21:32 sorry, but the Rugby League "Immortal" concept leaves me cold. It is, and always has been, a magazine promotion. #
21:17 Andrew Johns? Too soon. #nrl #
16:36 Twenty million dollars to rename the state's highways. Not upgrade them, rename them. #nswpol #facepalm #
15:34 Does anyone know where I can find out which Liberal/National senator is Patron Senator for which lower house electorate? #auspol #
08:05 Err, maybe Swanning is the wrong code. #bulldogging #storming #
08:04 Swanning about at Darling Harbour with footballers. RT @awebstar1: Liberal Party well represented at GF breakfast. Abbott, O'Farrell, types. #
07:59 How can the Prime Minister talk about achieving on the MDGs by 2015 when her own govt won't deliver on the foreign aid component by then? #
07:54 Live now: Julia Gillard swanning about in New York with Europeans and Africans. #
07:49 Will Sunday's #VBNSWCup grand final be the last game for a #rugbyleague team calling itself Balmain? RT @InnerWestNews http://t.co/ll39oz4h #

14:23 @Swearycat he's become one of the worst of the rugby league beat-up merchants, and that's a pretty crowded field #
14:15 There was a time when I used to enjoy reading Roy Masters' work, I believe they call it the 20th century. #
14:14 Is this the silliest #NRL story ever? MT @SMHsport: Roy Masters: Qlders will rebel if Andrew Johns becomes Immortal. http://t.co/HMUVyVjB #
13:48 For the record, I have seen ZERO evidence in the streets of Sydney that the Swans are in a grand final this Saturday. Zero. #
13:43 The family of Bulldogs-supporting kiddies on this train are playing the most earsplitting game of Spotto I have ever endured. #

19:43 of course Rupert Murdoch has nothing to do with the running of the Melbourne Storm and never has #
19:39 #NRL Grand Final selection shock. @rupertmurdoch to play hooker in new-look Storm front row: http://t.co/VIYPXBDx #
18:58 So much for #Marrickville Labor #fightingtories. #
17:53 The official hashtag for #cricket's latest international scandal is #watergate - http://t.co/Q9fUgxw9 #
16:28 And there will ne no puns from me along the lines of "Wests Tigers have taken a well Trodden path". #nrl #
16:27 I believe "Coach Emeritus" is the term you're all looking for right now. #timsheens #weststigers #nrl #
16:07 just realised that I was in the Powerhouse Museum at the same time as Tony Abbott this morning. Pity he didn't do the Narnia exhibit #
15:09 I bet Daniel Mortimer never dreamt that he would be captaining a grand final side within a year of joining the Roosters http://t.co/tNm4jTE0 #
14:36 OK, I signed a Twitter petition: "National Football League: End the Referee Lockout Now" http://t.co/7a0qwQrq via @change #nfl #
14:24 Say what? Labor not running a candidate for the Sydney by-election? That is ludicrous beyond belief! http://t.co/27uA6K3J #nswpol #
09:50 I'm at Narnia: The Exhibition (Ultimo, NSW) http://t.co/kwJvCvgY #
08:15 Thinking it might be time to put a global filter on iOS6 #
07:47 From my observations so far this week, the ratio of Bulldogs to Swans flags I have seen is running at infinity to none :) #nrlgf #

21:33 Is that what a Kim Kardashian is? What's the fuss? #mediawatch #
20:34 what on Earth would Luxembourg want with a seat on the UN Security Council? #
15:12 five consecutive trending topics on my current list sort of make a sentence: Australia; Can; Facebook; Great; Harry. #
15:09 When's he switching to #NRL? MT @triplejHack: looking forward to having @pocockdavid live with us at 530. What do you want to ask him? #
15:08 I have no idea what "Gangnam" is and am trying to see if I can stay that way till October at least #
14:46 Nice slogan. RT @JakeSaulwick: The fire department is on hand. Looks like 20-30 people with a fair few kids in this car http://t.co/FAqhVLwb #

14:28 "This is your last chance ever to join the Sydney Treasure Hunt on the Monorail!" Uh huh. #
14:26 ha ha ha. Latest newsletter from Metro Transport Sydney lands in my inbox just as I read news of the latest monorail breakdown. #
14:23 Only 9 months left. RT @FireRescueNSW: #FRNSW crews assisting with the evacuation of passengers following monorail breakdown in Sydney #CBD. #
14:22 Must say the Google search results for my name are looking a lot better since I unblocked the Googlebot. #doh #
10:30 It's ridiculous that @TonyAbbottMHR thinks an Australian Prime Minister should not attend an UN General Assembly. Would he pass it up? #
09:45 The Italian Forum at #Leichhardt really should be renamed L'Elefante Bianco. #
07:49 seems odd for ABC @BreakfastNews to be sourcing a report on the IgNobel Prizes from @AJEnglish #

22:31 The LinkedIn poll is up. #nrl RT @rickeyremedia: Who will win the 2012 NRL Grand Final?: http://t.co/hv4IbnRc #
22:07 Melbourne v Canterbury. The 21st century's two great salary cap cheats go head to head. #nrl #cmonfeelthenoize #
22:00 and, of course, go Swannies! #
21:44 but for the next eight days, Ich bien eine bulldogger. #nrlcbysou #
21:43 Great work @ssfcrabbitohs in making it to the preliminary final. Best effort in years. You'll do better in 2013. #nrlcbysou #
21:21 that could be it. #nrlcbysou #
20:42 Souths don't want to lose this by 2 or less. #nrlcbysou #
19:56 America was sending astronauts to the moon the last time Souths made the grand final. That's how long ago it is. #nrlcbysou #

17:47 I meant to tag that #nrlcbysou #
17:38 I have spent most of the afternoon in Canterbury/St George territory. People in Rabbitohs gear outnumbering Bulldogs ~10:1. #nrlsoucan #
17:31 Bemused at ch7 Sydney not showing #aflhawkscrows on their analog channel. Return To Witch Mountain at 6.30?? #
14:40 Twitter wants me to make my profile page "look beautiful". Well, guess what Twitter, I like it ugly!! #
12:25 I can't believe I had Googlebot blocked from my site for so long. Can't even remember now why I did it. Explains much of my SEO woes #
07:08 ha. Many moons ago I blocked an IP address of the Googlebot from my website. Unblocked it now, but that explains some of my access stats. #

22:52 @AdamMcGrogan I'd hope so #
22:23 apart from Bandwagon Sheeds, I wonder how the Giants organisation feel about the East Sydney Swans making the Grand Final? #aflswanspies #
22:10 go South Melbourne! #
21:38 "their favourite arch-rival of all" Rabs channelling his Inner Rex. #nrlmelman #
21:30 Canterbury v Souths tomorrow night. That's the playoff for 2nd and 3rd... #nrlmelman #cmonfeelthenoize #
21:21 Shut the gate. The horse has bolted. (Sorry Rex) #nrlmelman #
21:16 Sport is a funny game. #
20:59 Yes Melbourne that was a good try. #nrlmelman #
20:17 What, no video referral? #nrlmelman #
20:15 Maybe the video refs are too busy watching the greyhounds at Wentworth Park. (Do they still have greyhounds at Wentworth Park?) #nrlmelman #
20:13 @bernietb and the solution to poor refereeing is simply to double their numbers. I'm totally baffled. #nrlmelman #
20:11 I'm usually reluctant to bag referees/umpires in any sport but Gawd! What sort of training do these video refs get? #nrlmelman #
20:07 Hey I was joking. #
20:06 Slater's lost it. The video ref will award it. #nrlmelman #
20:02 Oh dear. Cronk got about twenty bonus metres out of that Manly defence. #nrlmelman #
19:59 The Melbourne Storm players are all Programmed. That's good to know. #nrlmelman #cmonfeelthenoize #

17:09 Some good news for once from Twitter. They have apparently blocked animated GIF avatars. http://t.co/wu1TyH5I #
12:06 Hmm. A donation to a humanitarian foundation run by a former US president is not a donation to a US political party. http://t.co/cBJIzQGi #
10:17 The definition of having an each-way bet is saying "Hip hip Jorge" and "Jorge has been huge" in the same article - http://t.co/Bjtft63c #nrl #
10:11 which leads us to The Shower Scene From Psycho's cover of The Seekers' Georgy Girl - http://t.co/1vxrqhX6 #
10:07 I hope The Shower Scene From Psycho are reforming to play the role of the Bernard Herrmann Orchestra #
10:05 Anthony Hopkins to play Alfred Hitchcock in a film about the making of Psycho. That sounds is my brain exploding. http://t.co/XZzLjOTr #

14:52 Not comfortable with some of the people on Twitter who think a conscience is ok so long as it doesn't disagree with their conscience #
14:01 Pat Buchanan and Cory Bernardi are next to each other on my Twitter trending topics list. Seems to be that kind of day. #
12:59 Remember folks: this is an Australia where more people support offshore processing than support same-sex maariage. More work needed on both. #
12:58 I'm guessing from those numbers that even with a conscience vote from the LNP, the same-sex marriage bill would still have been defeated. #
12:45 This would be cooler if it wasn't an ad for a Foxtel TV show. http://t.co/KaUyNnnb #
12:08 So another Liberal Party leader loses a Parliamentary Secretary over a homophobia scandal. #
12:00 In actual fact @Amijubi2014, @FulecoArmadillo and @ZuzecoArmadillo are running for the position of Official Armadillo of 2014 FIFA World Cup #
11:49 In the course of this morning I have been followed on Twitter by three armadillos. If I happen to marry them all don't tell Senator Bernardi #
10:33 Anyone who says "we've got 332 retweets but we want 10,000" shouldn't be in social media marketing. #
10:05 @vanOnselenP but isn't BOF's anonymity with the NSW public a performance indicator in itself? #
