Sportscafe

Glenn Maxwell joins Sportscafe from Melbourne - and when the boys bring up the finger-clicking scandal that's engulfed English club cricket this week, Maxwell starts doing some maths on his own career. He's got a theory about a few dismissals in his grade cricket days...

Also this week: Calum from the Talbot Bay Birdwatching Club explains how four blokes with binoculars racked up 20 million views, we look at NZ vs. AU at the Commonwealth Games and debate the per capita table, as well as Rohan Browning's amazing comeback story.

Plus: Chris Lynn on the Broncos' brutal fortnight, Connor Watson on the boot auction, and Ric discovers a new use for the per capita medal table

George Best joins the Sportscafe couch - Manchester United, the European Cup, the 60s, and the bet he made with his mates about his right foot.
He talks about leaving Belfast at 15 and going home the next day, becoming the fifth Beatle after a night in Portugal, why he took off to America, and what he actually enjoyed most about playing. Plus a debate with Zinzan Brooke over who exactly is the best player in the world.

Victor Radley is a changed man but still manages to lead the show astray.
Victor the Inflictor joins Joey, Connor and Taylor in studio and holds nothing back: his first game co-captaining the Roosters, what it was like on the inside of THAT Origin series with Laurie Daley, the moment with Teddy he says he'll remember for the rest of his life, and why one of the NRL's most feared forwards is on the tools running a demolition business mid-season.
Also on the show - Tayla shares her emotional weekend as Marcelo Montoya calls time on his career, Chris Lynn checks in from Sri Lanka, we meet the park footy legend behind a viral AFL kick, Toolbox Talk takes on the great stadium beer injustice, and grandma on a moped might be the first ever perfect score in Sport of Social history.

A shark attacked him waist-deep off the New Zealand coast - so he fought it off with his fishing rod.
In this classic extract from the Sportscafe TV show, Marc Ellis and the panel sit down with the fisherman who became the bait, and the story only gets better from there: what the doctors found, why he refused to stay in hospital, and the government's official advice for what to do when a shark has hold of you.

Featuring Marc Ellis, Lana Coc-Kroft, Graham, and Eva the Bulgarian.

Australia has set itself a massive target at the Commonwealth Games - but is it actually realistic? We put it to a man who's stood on top of the podium in the green and gold: swimming legend Michael Klim.
Michael joins the boys to talk Glasgow, the swimmers to watch, Cam McEvoy flipping training on its head, the truth about life in the athletes' village, and the story behind the most iconic celebration in Australian Olympic history.
He also opens up about the health battle that changed his life and the work he's now doing through the Klim Foundation.
Plus: Ryan Fox wins The Open (and NZ TV loses its mind), DeChambeau's penalty drama, a massive week in the NRL, Joey's road trip to Canberra for Tom Starling's 150th, and the return of viral back-fence hero Tristan Lumley.
