Sporting pictures of the Week :- 26 December
1Merry Christmas everybody. Here is RJH431 spreading the cheer with Dean Jones reminding him that he was his bunny. So much to take in; from the footwear to the chandelier.
Speaking of internal décor, here are the Pontings on the big day.
Detroit Pistons player Langston Galloway also got into the spirit.
South Korean mountain climbers also got the bug.
Explain this rather specific fine from the MCG.
Nothing like rocking up at the MCG, brown-nosing a hero and getting the spelling on your shirt wrong.
RIP Martin Peters.
Also from the archives, George Best; Xmas 1967.
I have a boring explanation for the MCG pitch invasion fine. Australian law specifies the value of a penalty unit for breaches of law, and the fine for invading the pitch is 60 penalty units. As of 1 July 2019, a penalty unit in Victoria is $165.22, therefore the fine is 60x that = $9913.20. More at https://www.justice.vic.gov.au/justice-system/fines-and-penalties/penalties-and-values
