England finally broke their drought in Australia at the Melbourne Cricket Ground, but the speed of the win caught everyone off guard. Corbin and Ed unpack a Boxing Day Test that raced from first ball to result in just two days, with Ed capturing the feeling around the ground simply: “It felt deflating.”England's win was shaped by standout individual performances. Josh Tongue earned Player of the Match after spearheading Australia's first-innings collapse, with Brydon Carse and Gus Atkinson providing key support. In the chase, Jacob Bethell steadied the innings before Harry Brook closed out the win. For Australia, Scott Boland again impressed, while Travis Head and Alex Carey offered resistance with the bat.Despite the constant action, Ed reckoned that “some things in life are best enjoyed slowly,” and this match “didn't get time to breathe,” with Corbin describing it as a contest where “the result arrived before the story.” England took the points. Corbin and Ed look ahead to what comes next.ABC Grandstand cricket commentator Corbin Middlemas is joined by Ed Cowan to bring you all the highlights and match analysis to keep you up to speed.

Australia batted twice on day one of the Boxing Day Test as chaos reigned at the MCG. Corbin and Ed unpack a day that moved too fast, exposed modern batting under pressure, and ended with Scott Boland improbably opening the batting before stumps.Test cricket, on fast-forward.ABC Grandstand cricket commentator Corbin Middlemas is joined by Ed Cowan to bring you all the highlights and match analysis to keep you up to speed.

Wellington Firebirds all-rounder Logan van Beek joined Hamish McKay to chat about being 11 wickets away from becoming the all-time Super Smash wicket taker ahead of today's 4:25pm game between Wellington and Central Districts. The record is currently held by ex-Cricket player Andrew Ellis who retired from his 18-year career in 2020. "I'll be giving him a message if I do overtake him because he was, he was my, you know, my mentor back in the Canterbury days," van Beek said.

The guys step back from the daily wrap to confront what the series result now unlocks. “We've now got lots of selection debates,” Cowan says, and few are bigger than Usman Khawaja's role, Josh Inglis' opportunity, and how much weight selectors place on decisions already made.With Pat Cummins set to rest, Steve Smith a likely return, and Nathan Lyon unavailable, the guys also dig into the spinner question, the case for Bo Webster, and how Australia balance investment versus reward now that the series is decided.Beyond the Ashes, there's time for a wild Big Bash run chase, designated hitter debates, and the IPL auction fallout.The urn is secure.

Australia sealed the Ashes in Adelaide by staying patient long enough for England to defeat themselves.For a moment on day five, with wickets in hand and runs still on the board, the chase felt alive. But Australia never panicked and, as Ed Cowan explains, every time England edged towards belief, they handed momentum straight back.England played their best cricket when they showed restraint, and lost it when they didn't.Australia trusted time, conditions, and discipline, waited for the mistakes, and closed out the series without needing to force the result. The composure of this Australian squad stood out again, with Pat Cummins setting the tone with calm leadership, Scott Boland finishing with relentless discipline, and Marnus Labuschagne finding ways to influence the game beyond the bat.ABC Grandstand cricket commentator Corbin Middlemas is joined by Ed Cowan to bring you all the highlights and match analysis to keep you up to speed.

Australia tightened their grip on the third Ashes Test on day four, leaving England 228 runs away with just four wickets in hand as the match heads into a decisive final day. With special guest Stuart Clark joining Corbin Middlemas, the mood was one of inevitability. As Corbin put it, “the shorthand of the day is that Australia are on the cusp of victory.”Nathan Lyon was central to that squeeze, ripping through England's middle order in a decisive evening spell. Clark summed it up succinctly: “Lyon had them in a spin in that final session,” triggering a collapse that tilted the match firmly Australia's way. Pat Cummins again underlined his value, striking before and after the breaks and dismissing Joe Root for the 13th time in Tests. “He's a freal, your strike bowler and your workhorse,” Clark said.The conversation also turned to England's shifting approach, with Bazball increasingly shelved under sustained pressure. Clark was blunt in assessment: “Bad planning. Bad preparation. What did they think was going to happen?”With four wickets left and history stacked against them, England face a final-day climb Australia expect to finish.ABC Grandstand cricket commentator Corbin Middlemas is joined by special guest Stuart Clark to bring you all the highlights and match analysis to keep you up to speed.

Day three in Adelaide belonged to Travis Head. A century soaked in pressure, nerves at 99, a dropped chance, and another moment added to the legend at his home ground.Australia's lead has blown past 350, England are running out of answers, and Ed is ready to call the series. Corbin and Ed unpack Head's dominance, England's quiet retreat from Bazball, Stokes carrying too much, and the selection questions simmering beneath Australia's control.Even the technology had a better day, after a rough start to the series.Day four awaits, and the pressure is on.ABC Grandstand cricket commentator Corbin Middlemas is joined by Ed Cowan to bring you all the highlights and match analysis to keep you up to speed.

Australia ground England into the dust in brutal 40-degree heat, building relentless pressure and leaving them hanging on. Corbin Middlemas and Ed Cowan highlight Alex Carey's five catches, sparking a broader question about England's approach and whether, in Cowan's words, “they're as skilful as they think they are.”They work through individual performances in England's attack, from Jofra Archer's outstanding moments to others who struggled, before turning to key match-ups including Pat Cummins' ongoing duel with Joe Root, and the growing DRS and Snicko controversy. With technology again under scrutiny, the guys summed it up simply: “Technology is better than it's ever been – but it's not perfect.”Listener feedback, selection philosophy, and execution under pressure all come into focus as Australia continue to look repeatable, composed, and ruthless.ABC Grandstand cricket commentator Corbin Middlemas is joined by Ed Cowan to bring you all the highlights and match analysis to keep you up to speed.

Australia hold the early edge after Day One in Adelaide, finishing on a surface that, as Ed put it, “looked tennis-bally” and made scoring off the front foot hard work. Corbin and Ed break down the dismissals, uneven bowling, and why conditions are likely to ease as the Test unfolds.The guys talk Alex Carey's century, the impact of Steve Smith's late withdrawal, Usman Khawaja's recall and 82, and the looming influence of Mitch Starc once Australia take the ball.With a record crowd, big tactical questions ahead, and, in Cowan's words, “a proper day of Test cricket” in the books, the verdict is clear: the game is alive, but Australia are slightly ahead.ABC Grandstand cricket commentator Corbin Middlemas is joined by Ed Cowan to bring you all the highlights and match analysis to keep you up to speed.

England arrive in Adelaide facing a must-win Test, but the odds are stacked. Australia have lost just once in their last 11 Tests, and only one team in the 149-year history of Test cricket has ever come back from 2–0 down.Brendon McCullum backs continuity, rejecting “knee-jerk” selection calls. Bashir and Tongue remain in the frame, with Ed noting Bashir could be “more effective on day one in Adelaide than at any other point in the series.” The batting order looks locked in, but Ed warns it's “a hard bet that it just turns around.”Corbin's been doing the calculations, and the numbers show this red-ball Adelaide Test is far tougher for batters than the pink-ball version. Ed explains why: “The ball can get caught in the grass and bounce more slowly - it almost feels like you're facing a tennis ball,” making the toss and bowling first crucial.They also discuss a rare India–Pakistan umpiring pairing, ongoing Australian selection debates, preview the BBL where Perth's list stands out, and wrap up with the Hurricanes dominating the WBBL final as Lizelle Lee stars and Elyse Villani signs off in style.

While Australia sit 2-0 up in the series, the guys dig into whether England have fallen into an “exaggerated sense of their own ability” as they enjoy their “reset in Noosa” ahead of the third test.It took Stokes and Jacks finally “playing properly” on the last day for England to show any real fight, and Corbin and Ed explore whether that flicker of resistance tells us anything or simply exposes a team that is, in Ed's words, “just not very good”.Selection changes feel inevitable for England, with Archer's effort labelled “a pathetic test”, Jacks battling to hold his place and Bashir's absence becoming harder to explain.Back to Australia, the lads also touch on the players who seem to vanish at the edges of selection talk, with Beau Webster slipping under what Corbin jokingly frames as an “invisibility cloak.” plus is Australia's depth so strong that fringe players can disappear from view for months and still be closer to a baggy green than anyone in England's touring squad.ABC Grandstand cricket commentator Corbin Middlemas is joined by Ed Cowan to bring you all the highlights and match analysis to keep you up to speed.

In this jam-packed Miscellany episode, we look into Disney's not-so-best moments starting with Myke's review of Zootopia: Better Zoogether, followed by a much needed Grumpy tangent about Disney maintenance, from broken effects to early closures that make no sense.

Usman Khawaja has unloaded on the Perth pitch. How justified is the spicy criticism and how much is reputation management? The opener is racing to be fit, but the conversation has centred on whether Travis Head should open. The South Australian believes batting orders are overrated and Pat Cummins agrees. Steve Smith is trialling NFL style ‘eye black' will it make a difference?

Australia- where we turn nicknames into an art form, especially on jobsites.Hopefully, you have never been called one of these:Morphine - slow-moving dope.Lantern - not really bright and always has to be carried.Bushranger - always holding others up.Mastercard - takes the credit for someone else's work.Perth - always 3 hours behind everyone else.Wheelbarrow - only works when pushed.Wicket-keeper - puts on the gloves, then stands back.Sensor-light - only works if someone walks past.Blister - turns up when all the hard work is done.And while some turn sloth into a career, diligence should be core to a Jesus follower's DNA.- A Message by David Toscanohttps://youtu.be/MeL3lZidpUQ

The Classified team is not procrastinating a single minute with their HasLabs. They are coming fast and furious, with perhaps my favorite vehicle of all time up next. Lego gets two spots this time around. First is my favorite Transformer, none other than Soundwave. The second is another favorite of mine. Don't judge, I was the perfect age for the Ewoks in Return of the Jedi, especially Wicket. For MOTU, my favorite this week is not even a master of the universe, he is a Thundercat.

Today's podcast features Tony Holler. Tony Holler is a veteran high school track and field coach, renowned for his "Feed the Cats" sprint training philosophy. With over 40 years of coaching experience in both track and football, Holler has become a leading voice in athlete-centered speed development. He is the head track coach at Plainfield North High School in Illinois, where his teams have consistently produced elite sprinters and state champions. He is also the co-founder of the Track Football Consortium, a popular coaching event that bridges the gap between sprint and team sport development. In a day where the methods are many, Tony Holler has created a training system where he keeps the simple things simple, but off-sets that simplicity with a variety filled “X-Factor” training day that runs like a power-oriented basketball practice in many ways. On today's podcast, Tony speaks on his formative experiences as an athlete, young coach, and teacher that have led him to his current positions in coaching. Tony speaks extensively on his X-Factor workouts, inspiration from his dad's basketball practices, and the keys to the variability in both plyometrics and wicket variations that define the training day. He also speaks on X-Factor paving the way for a simpler, competitive speed workout on the following day. Tony also touches on how the “feed the cats” methods have influenced the successful distance program at Plainfield North, along with many other nuggets of wisdom.

And then the next station was jump rope, and the next station was lateral slides back and forth, touching the lane lines. And we do that kind of thing in X Factor because what I have found is that basketball players seem to be the healthiest, most durable track athletes.” - Tony Holler (35:30) “Our favorites are the extreme ISO lunge that we do not do for five minutes. We do it for more like a minute. You know, maybe we're not cooking the steak long enough. But this is very important. Always err on the side of less.” - Tony Holler (00:44:15) “I color code our speed workouts and our X factor workouts as yellow, which to me means caution. And that caution is don't let today ruin tomorrow. Almost always the day after an X factor workout is a sprint workout for us” - Tony Holler (47:40) “Speed is repetitive. X factor is very much flex” - Tony Holler
