The @DevStrikers are crowned Statewide Women's Cup champions for 2025 after a resounding 5-2 win over South Hobart at Valley Road. Asuka Doi named player of the game after her two goals.

Unforgettable day
#OnThisDay in 1997
Brighton needed a point away at Hereford to stay in the football league
1-0 down, with no ground & no future, Brighton were staring into the abyss

Tasmania, with 2% of Australia's population, now holds the BBL title and the NBL title. What else can they get their hands on? You can't convince me this state won't make a success of an AFL team when it comes.

Sit back, relax and enjoy all 1⃣5⃣ goals scored by Japan's record @PremierLeague goalscorer! 🤩

That’s a big signing for a National League club, wonder if she’ll start against Altrincham.
This is possibly my favourite @OfficialBHAFC goal ever.
Maybe it’s because it’s an impudent finish.
Maybe it’s because this was my daughter’s first Albion game.
But probably because it began our era of domination over a team that haunted my childhood.

Happy Birthday, Rowan Atkinson
Blackadder is one of the finest comedy creations ever produced. Rowan controls a lifelong stammer by over pronouncing his words, which he's weaponised into comedy gold
He’s madder than Mad Jack McMad, the winner of last year’s Mr Madman competition

Those criticising Hűrzeler who say there are no patterns of play.
But then I see a goal like this.. Incredible build up and movement #BHAFC
