Episode 46: Kyrgios Returns, Wallabies Win and Socceroos Stumble

Welcome back to the podcast where research and knowledge are secondary to the ramblings of an old man whose one claim to fame is that one of the nicknames he carries is The Almanack. On today’s episode of our podcast, our topics of conversation are: Nick Kyrgios will make his return to tennis in December at the Brisbane International. We ask the question, “Does anyone care?” One NRL star has been sacked for driving on drugs, another looks like being retained. We discuss the two situations and whether the arguments stand up. Tim Southee is set to retire from Test cricket after the series against England. We talk about his legacy. The Socceroos stumble to another disappointment, this time a 0-0 draw against Saudi Arabia. We discuss where it leaves the team in World Cup qualifying. The Wallabies have won two games on the bounce. Is the formula finally beginning to work? Lucas Herbert held off Cameron Smith to win the most star studded NSW Open golf tournament in decades, while Rory McIlroy continues to win everything except the majors. Jake Paul and Mike Tyson dance around each other for 8 rounds in the biggest farce... oh hang on, it's boxing... And finally, why do the teams I support in American sports suck so much? For those of you still here, Welcome to the Peters Sports Almanack Podcast, where knowing about sport is secondary to the ability to talk rubbish about it.
