Sunday, 9th May 2021 13:56
First-half goals from James Norwood, Gwion Edwards and Troy Parrott saw Town to a comfortable 3-1 home victory over Fleetwood Town in a typical meaningless final-day game at Portman Road. Norwood gave the Blues the lead on three, Edwards made it 2-0 six minutes later and Parrott added the third on 29, while Wes Burns pulled one back for the visitors in the 72nd minute.
Luke Chambers skippered the Blues in what could be his final game for the club, coming in at right-back for Kane Vincent-Young, who suffered a shoulder injury at Shrewsbury on Tuesday evening.

An ankle injury to Hawthorn giant Ned Reeves further soured Box Hill Hawks’ 37-point defeat to Werribee in their round four VFL clash at City Oval.
The 209-centimetre son of Hawthorn CEO Justin went down with a left ankle injury sustained in a marking contest early in the second quarter and was on crutches post-game.
Fellow ruckman Jon Ceglar was named to make his return from an ankle injury but did not play. Of Hawthorn’s AFL emergencies, Josh Morris and Dylan Moore were held over.
A bright spark for Sam Mitchell’s men was the debut of Eastern Ranges midfielder and potential top five draft pick Tyler Sonsie, who starred with 21 disposals and two goals.

NRL head of football Graham Annesley said early on Saturday morning that the performance of the NRL video bunker, led by senior official Steve Chiddy, did not meet our expectations .
Chiddy was scheduled to act as lead review official in the bunker for Saturday s Cowboys-Broncos clash, but will now be replaced by Chris Butler. Referees coach Jared Maxwell and I spoke at length immediately following the game last night, Annesley said.

“Listen and understand. That terminator is out there. It can’t be bargained with. It can’t be reasoned with. It doesn’t feel pity, or remorse, or fear. And it absolutely will not stop, ever, until you are dead.”

The Terminator, these words were passionately used to convince Sarah Connor that, if she wanted to live, she had to understand that a mechanical monster was coming to get her and it would keep coming no matter what.
