It was such a good read punctuated by squees of excitement whenever I saw a friend quoted!

In Japan for work so had to vote early this year - so many democracy sausage photos I’ll my feed giving me a feeling of FOMO and pride! 🌭

Australia, are you thinking today? #auspol

Husband ventured to Bunnings this morning - I waved him off tearfully not knowing if I would ever see him again … he’s back unscathed once again 😮‍💨

I’m going to Ningaloo Reef in WA for a week holiday and this weather is having a dramatic impact on my level of smug Victorian away from the cold 😂👎🏻

Well caring deeply about politics turned out to be a mistake. Time to instead become emotionally invested in a field where I’ll never be let down: sports

Have reached a phase in my life where I’m not sure if the person is offering me their seat on the train because I’m a woman or because they think I’m old 🫣

Even though I’m not necessarily looking forward to going back to work tomorrow I think its definitely time - I’ve started cleaning up and throwing out from random cupboards around the house. I’m not super good at resting for too long!

Watching the Kayo coverage for the test just so I can enjoy Kerry O’Keefe in full flight. His joy is contagious 😁 you’d love it @daniell0ck.bsky.social

How good is a competitive 5-day test! Thanks MCG curators for such a great pitch 👌🏻🏏

It was toasty and very windy!

It’s been a lovely day of cricket

A few batters desperately needed a good score today and he was one of them

I’m literally doing this exact thing right now!

Building nuclear reactors in Australia is like building a couple of hundred billion dollars worth of gigantic wave pools around the coast. Why? Just go to the beach you drongo. Can't even believe this is a conversation - what a stupid country.

Off to #SMAANZ2024 today to talk about sports romance fiction 📚💖🫶

Excited to share my research passion for this space as a site for diverse fan engagement that is also just very fun!

And reading sports romance fiction for research? Best. Data. Collection. Ever!

Hope all of the PhD students are having a great day at #SMAANZ2024! I've got a bumper crop of amazing students presenting this year, can't wait to nod enthusiastically in the crowd for them.

THREAD: Research we should be thankful for.

The chances that we and everyone we know and love would be here today, alive, healthy and thriving without the advances of science and technology are basically zero.

Today we look through the research and scientists to whom we owe everything.

Fantastic #AFLW Grand Final lunch event today with VECCI. The team representing all things women’s sport in our @leaguetees.bsky.social attire. You’ll be getting some new orders Tony - we found a few new fans of your work 🙌🏻

I'm finalising my slides for my first presentation at #SMAANZ - Sports Management Australia and New Zealand next week. So excited to present this research on behalf of just a brilliant team of collaborators.

I’m pretty sure it’s going to make me cry. As a “sport mum” I think this one is going to get me in the feels. Making my mum read it first 🫣

Melbourne’s warm and rainy weather this week is causing havoc for my hair but I’m pretty sure I can actually hear my garden growing! 🌱

Watching one of my favourite women in @emmasherry.bsky.social introduce two more of my favourite women in Helen Garner and Leigh Sales to talk about a footy book equals a pretty perfect evening 📚🏉💚 I can’t wait to read ‘The Season’ 🏉

Once you’ve seen it you cannot unsee it!

Wow so many follows today! I think a combination of appearing in some a very lovely starter packs and a whole lot more people joining 🦋. BTW some of your bios are very clever.
