As the EOFY sales come to a halt, it is time to take stock of the sporting year. Our fearless, peerless (and some would say clueless) panellists give their three predictions for the rest of the year.

Finey forsees the World Cup, Brownlow, AFL Premiers, Coleman Medal & Melbourne Cup results. Kev's prognostications are England's chances in the World Cup plus changes at the top of Aussie cricket and AFL HQ. Stephen J uses his crystal ball (stop sniggering please) to announce the 2026 AFL Premiers and the woman who will win Wimbledon and the US Open. New balls please. 

Ken is missing this week - he had a better offer. Hard to believe, we know, but seeing Colin Hay live at Elisabeth Murdoch Hall seemed more appealing. Full report next week.

Ruck 'n Roll

What do you get when World of Sport meets Countdown. You get Ruck 'n Roll.  You get longtime radio DJ Kevin Hillier, sports nut and broadcaster Mark Fine, music nut and broadcaster Ken Francis plus lawyer and raconteur Stephen J Peak and you have an unusual mix. But the four of them have many things in common - their love of sport, their love of music and their love of chatting about that and more. Put them in a studio together and the mix is electric.

No Milk Today.

The sporting cup runneth over, with World Cup football, darts, Wimbledon, US Open golf, State of Origin Rugby League, netball finals and of course yet another round of our favourite - AFL. 

In the hotly contested Lenny's Fine Food Tipping Competition, Ken tipped the card in a form reversal to rival anything seen on a sporting field anywhere.

This week there's plenty of sport to discuss and Finey even went to the theatre. 

Musically, it's families in the spotlight and you will be surprised to hear some of the names bandied about including The Hives, Greta Van Fleet, The DeFranco Family and Iggy and the Stooges. What the Family indeed.  

Thank your mother for the rabbits.

The Rain, The Park and Other Things.

Welcome aboard your weekly flight to the Bermuda Triangle of podcasting otherwise known as Ruck 'n Roll (insert Vincent Price Thriller laugh but strictly no MJ-like groin touching).

Captain Hillier speaking at the controls, along with First Officer Kenny 'Cockpit' Francis and your cabin crew Purser Peak and our Chef de Mission - launching Lenny's Fine Flying Food - Mark Fine.  

Our flight time is one hour but with the expected wind gusts from the Purser and the constant re-rooting of the flight path, delays to our final destination are expected.

There will be turbulence, plus altitude and attitude variances, and please observe the 'no smirking' signs. 

For the comfort of your fellow passengers, please keep flatulence to a minimum, belching to an acceptable volume and strictly no nose picking.

For your listening enjoyment the cabin crew will be with you soon to see if you would like headphones. Before you do that old joke remember who make up our cabin crew.

Fasten your chastitiy belt and Ruck On!!!

Mrs Slocombe’s Pussy

'As the chill of winter brings its icy countenance' is a nice turn of phrase and might be a good opening line for a Bureau of Meteorology staff meeting, but here it acts as an entree to the cold, hard reality of this episode's freshly generated word salad. 

It's festive, frivilous, fractious, forthright, fearless, feckless, flamboyant, fiery and flawed ... and even Kev has injected an F word to keep the show moving forward.
