Chewin' The Bat

It's coming into the silly season and the past fortnight has given a santa sack sized amount of sporting content. We've had ecstacy, heartbreak and controversy in the race to crown Formula One's world champion, and a top 3 all time shoulder charge contender. Sit back and relax, just as we did, and enjoy a jam packed sporting update to round out the year.

There’s no denying it, La Niña threw us off last week, but we’re back to bring you a roundup of the week (and a half) that’s been in sport. From cricket captains to boxing champions it’s been a big week for Australia. This weeks Chew Topic is the tennis coaching qualification system in Australia and how it could be changed to increase participation.

The ATP Next Gen finals have just wrapped up and we’ve got all you need to know about the best up and comers on tour. For the third week running we improve on our T20 World Cup chat to celebrate the Aussies triumph. Gus also has some miscellaneous bits including a pledge to complete before the end of this year, and a possible power move.

Why does Ronaldo insist on an erratic sleep schedule? What did Roger Bannister do before breaking the 4 minute mile? How much does Lebron spend on his recovery each year? Before delving into all that for The Chew, the boys cover the big highlights of the week: James “Ducky” Duckworth breaking into the ATP Top 50, post game swearing moments, and another loosely understood week of international cricket.

Another week, another huge episode of sporting highs and lows brought to you by the Chewin’ The Bat team. Join us for a rundown of the Noosa Triathlon as we stay local, Ash Barty’s record breaking run at the top, and Jarvo’s second international sporting debut. After a water taste test the boys turn their newly lubricated voice boxes to a review of Tennis Hot Shots system in Australia.

In what's been a bit of a strange time in the sporting calendar, Chewin' The Bat is here to bring you the news and soothe your worries. Join us for a run down of what' important, like how to mentally prepare for a cricket viewing season, and why birds ever got involved in the game of golf. Towards the end, the boys pivot to ask the age old question: should tennis coaches be allowed on court at professional events?

Join the Chewin' The Bat team as they dive into the murky waters of draft systems. Wondering about the impact of a drafting system in the NRL, the boys go through a mildly under prepared expansion draft for everyone's new second favourite team, the Redcliffe Dolphins. This episode is also blessed by the triumphant return of Sport of the Week and Who Knew (with Producer Frae)

Welcome to a special season 3 episode of Chewin' The Bat. Angus and Jack sit down (sadly) without Producer Frae to rip into a breakdown of all things NRL. Starting with last weekends preliminary finals before previewing the upcoming grand final. Also tune in to the top of the show to heat "Something Nice"

The Chewin' The Bat boys are back, with a shopping trolley sized amount of sport to rip into. Kicking off with Australia's remarkable performance in Tokyo at the Paralympic Games, before going delving deep into what was one of the most memorable Grand Slams in the open era. It's finals footy time! So you bet they'll be some NRL chat. Sit back, relax & enjoy

The boys are back and keen to rip into some of Tokyo's best action during week 2 and recap what was an unforgettable two weeks (and 2 days) of sport. An Aussie Tokyo summary is in order and Producer Frae brings back our favourite segment, Sport of the Week.
