Tassie, Queensland, and the brawl for new stadiums

Season 15, Episode 30: Tasmania's new stadium might depend on this weekend's state election, but with over 100,000 members for the new footy club, it'll be a tough promise to rescind. Meanwhile Queensland's government doesn't want to spend bulk cash on anything at all. Ellyse Perry is still the best, proving it in Bangalore's WPL title run, while Pak Bean and Imad Wasim literally lit up the Pakistan league. Cricket Aus bail on more Afghanistan fixtures, the Shield final is set up, and Jess Jonassen is a surprise omission from the Australian squad.
