I have stumbled upon news that Jamaica have qualified for the next Rugby League World Cup, to be held in England in 2021. So, this was a surprise to me, so I had to make a post and look into the details.

Some of my favorite Cricket memories were watching the great West Indies teams do battle with Australia in the 80's and 90's. I Thought I'd take a look at four of the great West Indies players that came

Well, I posted an update on the test for Day 1, Day 2, and Day 3 so I can't leave it be without a wrap up. As much as it pains me to say it, Well Done England. In the Day 3 wrap, I made the following comment:

Day 3 of the test saw England's captain stand up and show some fight. Taking the wickets required at the start of the day, and setting up a chase of 359, keeping the match within England's reach. Video

Day 2 of the third test will be remembered for a monumental collapse of the English batting, with the entire innings only yielding 67 runs. Australia bowled well, and England failed to show the patience

Day 1 of the third test was a rain affected day, with the weather assisting the English bowlers and adding to the challenges faced by the Aussies. Warner and Labuschagne had survived and guided Australia

England went into the Ashes fearing two batsmen: David Warner and Steve Smith. Well, while Smith has fidgeted his way to 378 runs in three innings to reaffirm his status as the best since Don Bradman,

Extreme pace bowling has been thrilling crowds but scaring batters since the Bodyline tour of the 1930s. This is quite an interesting, thought provoking article around bouncers in cricket, and the balance

I am putting my Burn posts on hold at the moment. This isn't a burn post, simply letting you know the outcome of last weeks post. Click this link for last weeks post I have sent 7451.52 SPORTS tokens to

Man of the moment - again - Jofra Archer finds himself in what is fast becoming a familiar position of England X-factor, and he hasn't even made his Test debut yet. Jofra Archer is being placed in a tough

Post number 4 in my weekly effort to help the price of SPORTS tokens by sending some off to the fires of @null, never to be seen again. Last weeks post payed out 17,668.295 SPORTS as Author reward. So,

The first Test of the 2019 Ashes series is in its final day, with Australia looking to close out a well deserved win. Session 1 on Day 5 has seen the Aussies take control, with highly tactical and intelligent

This is the third post of mine aimed at sending some SPORTS tokens off to the fires of hell. Source: Pixabay.com Post 1 resulted in 11,391.043 being sent to the flames. Post 2 Has payed out, so its time

This is the third in a series of polls I am running to select a team for the Fantasy Premier League. The team selected will enter into 2 leagues, both of which have big SPORTS token prizes. Everyone that votes in these polls gets an FCT token on Steem Engine, and a small SPORTS up-vote. If the team wins any prizes, they will be shared between all token holders Here are the first two polls, which are still open for more votes. * Poll 1 - Goalkeepers [Link to poll](https://dpoll.xyz/detail/@jk6276.sports/fantasy-premier-league-crowd-sourced-selection-post-1/) * Poll 2 - Expensive Defenders [Link to poll](https://dpoll.xyz/detail/@jk6276.sports/fpl-crowdsource-team-poll-2/) So far, I have selected 4 players based on how voting is going so far. These choices can be changed if more votes come in. * GKP - Alisson - LIV * GKP - Lloris - TOT * DEF - van Dijk - LIV * DEF - David Luiz - CHE ### In todays poll, will select 3 more defenders. There are 166 Defenders to choose from. I won't list all of them, just a selection. If I exclude someone you think really should be in the team, please let me know. I don't personally have much Premier League knowledge, so thats why I'm crowdsourcing my team. OK, 3 defenders will be selected from the following options.

Yesterday, I launched a new series of Polls to outsource selection of a Fantasy Premier League team. You can still vote on that Poll at [this link](https://dpoll.xyz/detail/@jk6276.sports/fantasy-premier-league-crowd-sourced-selection-post-1/). Since then, I have created a brand new Steem Engine Token, called FCT - FPL Crowdsource Team. Everyone that votes on any of my polls run to select this team will receive a token. If we win a prize, the prize will be split amongst token holders. It's a bit of fun, and me getting to play around with tokens, and getting involved with the Fantasy Premier League competitions that I don't know much about. ___________________________________________________________ So, today I need to pick some defenders. There is a list of 166 to choose from and I need to pick 5. So, I think I'll pick 2 from the top 20 most expensive defenders, and fill the other 3 spots with another poll tomorrow. Select who you would put in the Fantasy League team from the following 20 options. You can still vote on yesterdays Poll, and todays. Every voter gets 1 token per poll. Vote now for a free Shitcoin. Cheers, John.

In [this post](https://www.sportstalksocial.com/sportstalk/@jk6276.sports/hey-sports-fans) I announced that I will enter the fantasy premier league contests being run by @acidyo and @blanchy.sports by crowdsourcing my picks, and sharing the any prizemoney won with everyone that votes on my polls. Do check out the link, and let me know what you think about my plan. POLL NUMBER 1 - Goalkeeper selection. So there is 49 goalkeepers to choose from. I have to pick 2, so the two with the highest number of votes via dpoll will be selected for my team. I have listed the first 20 keepers on the list by value, if you think I have missed a valuable inclusion, please let me know. Going to be interesting to see if I can crowdsource a competitive entry into these contests. At least it should be a bit of fun, and I may learn a thing or 2 about the English Premier League. Thanks for getting involved, keep an eye out for more polls to help me out, and I'll announce when the token I am making for this is created. Check out the above linked post for more info. Cheers, John.

Exciting times for the SPORTS community with the announcement of 2 huge 1 million SPORTS token prizes up for grabs. These have been attached to Fantasy Premier League comps. 1 of these has been run by
