5 d. ago Brisbane Broncos win NRLW premiership after surviving Sydney Roosters fightback

Broncos beat Roosters 22-18 in spiteful grand final at Accor StadiumMele Hufanga awarded Karyn Murphy Medal as player of matchThe Brisbane Broncos overcame a valiant Sydney Roosters comeback to secure their fourth NRLW premiership with a 22-18 victory in a see-sawing and spiteful grand final marked by sickening collisions and a shoving match at the final whistle.The Broncos were fortunate in having the crucial, match-winning try awarded by the video referee, after Mele Hufanga appeared to be held up by Jasmin Strange and Olivia Kernick. With just four minutes left, the Broncos centre – who was named Karyn Murphy Medallist for player of the match – grounded the ball to push her side into the lead. Although the try was awarded, the slow motion replay was far from conclusive. Continue reading...

8 d. ago James Comey’s real ‘crime’? Daring to put the law before loyalty to Trump | Lawrence Douglas

The former FBI director prioritized fidelity to his office. The case against him is flimsy – but that’s cold comfortIn 1931, an exceptionally talented young Berlin attorney named Hans Litten summoned Adolf Hitler to testify in a criminal case. Litten represented four victims of a brutal assault perpetrated by members of Hitler’s Sturmabteilung, or SA, on a dance hall frequented by leftist workers; by the time the assault ended, three people were dead. At trial, the defense sought to portray the SA as a disciplined political organization, under orders from Hitler to use force only as self-defense.In his three-hour cross-examination of the head of the Nazi party, Litten managed what precious few dared to attempt. Hitler had expected the young lawyer to be intimidated; instead, Litten aggressively and skillfully dissected him under oath, reducing the supposedly gifted orator to a stammering rage. In trapping Hitler in contradictions and exposing him as an inveterate liar, Litten also m...

2 w. ago PSG clean up at the Ballon d’Or while losing to Marseille in Ligue 1

Luis Enrique, Ousmane Dembélé and PSG won awards in Paris but the real action was taking place at the Vélodrome By Get French Football NewsOn a night when Paris Saint-Germain were named the best team in the world, their centre-forward the best player in the world, and their man in the dugout the best manager in the world, they were second best at the Vélodrome, losing a league game in Marseille for the first time in 14 years.The 21st night of September will live long in the memory of the Marseillais. It was the night that an apocalyptic deluge engulfed the city and the wider Var region, bringing the city to a standstill and forcing the postponement of the heavily anticipated classique. The sheer strength of the storm dispelled any notion of a wider anti-PSG conspiracy from the local authorities, who made the decision just hours before kick-off and after Luis Enrique’s side had already arrived in the city. PSG retraced their steps, returning to Paris and then making the trip back dow...
