On June 23rd the nation will vote whether or not to leave the European Union. If Britain does vote to leave many aspects of everyday life will change including those in the sporting world. Here, I take a look at what we might be able to expect from a sports perspective in the future, should we no longer be part of the EU as a country. Firstly, it should be noted that predicting exactly what will happen in the event of Britain leaving the EU is a difficult task; there are few certainties, what we can do though is…

Is it time for top-flight clubs to finally lower ticket prices instead of prioritising profit?’

Last season could not have finished any better; Jonathan Thurston kicking the winning field goal in extra time to beat Queensland rivals, Brisbane Broncos, 17-16 to give North Queensland Cowboys their first Premiership. But can they achieve back-to-back Premierships? A feat that has not been achieved since 1993 – Peter Dunmore assesses each team’s chances.

10 years ago Wayne Rooney suffered a metatarsal injury that put his attendance at the 2006 World Cup into doubt and England’s hope of victory in Germany hung in the balance as daily updates sent the nation into a frenzy of broken footed madness. Rooney, a young outrageous talent with a fierce competitive streak, was touted as the best player from these shores since Paul Gascoigne.
