Season 13, Ep 1: That's right, it's back to the start of an Australian summer, the end of an English one, and a new season of The Final Word. Who can believe we've done thirteen of them? We've also finished reloading the lost eps from Season 4, so we only have our first three short seasons to put back into the feed. The Sheffield Shield is starting up alongside the WNCL, the County Championship had a bonkers last day, and the T20 World Cup preparations are underway. Also, Jodie Hicks is racking up touches on the footy field.
