A distraught single father has shared photos of his children sleeping on mattresses on the floor after revealing he had been turned away from more than 450 rental homes. Ash Brown, 32, and their two children have been homeless for six months despite relentless efforts to find a home, with the family living at the grandparents’ home in Adelaide. After sharing his story on TV and pleading for help to give his children the home they deserve, the young father is bombarded with messages from trolls saying that the landlord turned him down because of his facial tattoo. With pictures not included on most normal rental apps, the father believes his facial tattoo – ‘Blessing’ written above his brow – has nothing to do with his struggles to find a place to live. Mr Brown and his son were forced to share a mattress on the floor while his daughter slept on the cushions of the sofa next to them. Now taking anti-depressants to help him cope with the horror situation, Mr Brown told Daily Mail Austral

The All Blacks XV team is ready to face South Africa A in Montpellier in November, Things understand, as part of Rugby New Zealand’s efforts to stay connected with its biggest rugby rivals. The New Zealand Under-19s will also tour South Africa for three or four games in October, further acknowledging that the lack of exposure to South African rugby is a potential weakness for New Zealand rugby following the collapse of Super Rugby. Although the fixtures are yet to be confirmed, it is understood that Blues coach Leon MacDonald will take charge of the All Blacks second line, meaning he could also coach against Scott Robertson when the All Blacks XV face the Barbarians at Tottenham Stadium, London, on 13 November. The All Blacks XV squad will consist of players on the fringes of the All Blacks selection, or potentially form the All Blacks back from injury, and will be an important pathway for players as New Zealand digests the fact that they have fallen behind in several area

Now the bank faces what is shaping up to be the biggest overhaul of the country’s economic policy in decades, with the RBA’s formal review. The release of the terms of reference for the review by Treasurer Jim Chalmers is imminent. This will mark the bank’s first review since the 1981 Campbell report – when Australians used Bank Cards, people kept $1 and $2 notes in their wallets and mortgage interest rates were capped by the government at the time. Reserve Bank Governor Philip Lowe has maintained an upbeat economic assessment throughout his tenure. The review was prompted by concerns about the bank’s handling of monetary policy prior to the COVID-19 pandemic. A series of articles in this masthead in April last year, outlining criticism among the bank’s economics, handling of its policies and governance structure, provided a staging ground for the demand for review. Both political parties went to the election promising a review. Chalmers describes his review of “RBA goals and objectiv

The Wallabies find themselves in almost unfamiliar territory, with a chance to secure the newly minted Ella-Mobbs Trophy in the second Test against England in Brisbane this evening. As far as this mid-year three-Test series goes, only four of them go back to 2014. The 2015 and 2019 Rugby World Cup years meant no Tests were played in June in those years. We just went straight from Super Rugby to the shortened Rugby Championship. And of the four series, only the 2016 series against England where the Wallabies have not won the first Test. Against France in 2014, the Wallabies won in Brisbane and finished the draw in Melbourne, before completing a clean sweep of the draw in Sydney. And against France again last year, the Wallabies won again in Brisbane but dropped a second Test in Melbourne. A Noah Lolesio penalty scored the tie again in Brisbane. Fourth draw against Ireland in 2018, where again the Wallabies won the first Test in Brisbane, but then lost the draw following defeats in Mel
