You can take the bloke out of WA but not the WA out of the bloke.

Yeah who ****ing cares? Stories about a B grade footballer having his third child front page news? I get that Sam isn't very bright but why would you sign up for this?

Not having a go at Pep whatsoever, but it continually amazes me the obligatory front page pics of footballers from all teams getting married or having/had kids.
Never seems to end.
Aside from their families, who cares one iota.
Surely there's real news to plaster over the paper/internt????

A desperate attempt to broaden the reader base. Barely anyone under 60 buys a paper, but Sport is still something Gen X, Millennials and Gen Z like, so hoping to attract a few into buying their rag. As if anyone under 60 can't read/see all they want on it, on their phone or PC.

They do these stories for the same reason cricket telecasts have wag boundary riders that ask players moronic questions about their home life and their kids.. for the female audience

And how does Giselle cope with the kids while you are off at the IPL herpa derpa? err she pisses off to buy handbags while the nanny brings up the kids.
