Ep 091 - Winter Olympics Are Over, So We Bring Back Some Hot Tips - a podcast by MugPunters.com.au

This is the MugPunters.com.au podcast for Thursday 1st March 2018 and in our breaking news headlines this week:

- The Winter Olympics draw to a close and what spectacular games they were. But following the final curtain of the closing ceremony, punters everywhere are left wondering what to watch on television now they can’t tune in to the figure skating to check out the double toe, triple toe and even the camel toe on the super slow mo replays

- The NRL is set to get underway next week and journalists are struggling for headlines to hype the game. Whilst some are leading with stories about the NRL naming a 9th immortal, others are chasing the old “league expansion” headlines. When speaking with Mug Punters .com.au, journalists have expressed their dissatisfaction over there not being a single cocaine bust, glassing, bubbler or even an animal related episode to report on, though Clint Newton from the Rugby League Players Association assures us it’s only a matter of time

- And golfer Justin Thomas has had a fan ejected from the golf course prior to his play-off win in the Honda Classic. The spectator allegedly said just before his tee shot on the 16th that “I hope it goes in the water” and after the ball was struck followed up with “get in the bunker”. Thomas’ mum has come out in support of her son’s move suggesting he never would have had the balls to take real sledging in a proper sport like footy and she’s just happy he didn’t end up pursuing his passion for crocheting full time
