20 rounds have been won and run with only three weeks remaining until the finals begin. As the finish line draws closer, here’s what we learned from the results of the weekend’s ladder formation. Carlton’s inconsistency seems to be going against them Carlton’s defeat to Adelaide might cost them the top four. With 12 wins to their name, the Blues may need to win all three of their remaining fixtures to have any chance of grabbing a finish twice. That’s easier said than done, especially with Brisbane (away), Melbourne and Collingwood to come. While we still expect the Blues to play in September, from here it looks like they’ll have to do it the hard way and run the gauntlet, a journey the Bulldogs only managed to go through in 2016. It’s a tough pill to swallow for the Blues, as losses to St Kilda, Richmond and Adelaide (their teams are higher on the ladder than) since the byes seem to be going against them. They without a doubt have enough A-clas...

We went through 19 weeks of the AFL season with the final month in front of every team in the home and away campaign. With results looking more meaningful as the ladder takes shape, here’s what we learned from the weekend’s game. Jamarra Ugle-Hagan has arrived If we were giddy about last week’s Jamarra Ugle-Hagan clash against St Kilda, we’re officially hyped now following his superb performance against the incumbent prime minister on Saturday night. While the former stat-line No. 1 pick of five goals and six marks in such a big game is impressive, it’s the way he does it that really speaks volumes. Whether it’s a contested sign, an odd finish, a second attempt or a deft touch, you can’t help but think about what this Bulldog will be in a few years. We all know he has talent, just look at who he is compared to entering the competition (the one and only Lance Franklin), but it’s great to see his output reach the potential he clearly has. W...

Since its discovery in 2012, the Higgs boson has become one of the most powerful tools for investigating our understanding of nature and, with it, examining some of the biggest open questions in physics today. But what have we physicists learned about particles in the last ten years? Scalar particles exist in nature In the early hours of July 4, 2012, the foyer outside CERN’s main lecture hall looked more like a venue for a rock concert than the main building of the world’s leading particle physics laboratory. Dozens of students with groggy eyes slowly rolled up their sleeping bags, stretching after a long night on the hard floor. A long line of hundreds weaved through the foyer, around the restaurant and outside the door. The excitement in the line was throbbing – although the chances of getting into the auditorium were slim, just to be there was already thrilling. We’ve found it. A scalar particle exists in nature and July 4, 2012 is its debut. It’s heavy...

Today we take a look at the release of the first batch of images captured by the James Webb Space Telescope. This is something we have both been waiting for for almost 25 years. Back in those days, we analyzed the first Hubble images of the distant universe, and the details they reveal are staggering compared to anything we’ve seen in ground-based images. It seems the bar has been raised once again, and Webb is set to herald a new era for astronomy and space research. Its large mirror helps it produce images that are two to three times sharper than Hubble’s, and that go much deeper into space (which means it can see dimmer sources). Webb was also able to see far redder infrared wavelengths, opening up new views of the universe. This is particularly important for studying the early universe because of “cosmological redshift,” a process that refers to the stretching of light (with the expansion of the universe) as it travels through cosmic space. It’s als...

We’re 17 weeks through the AFL season and we’re starting to get an idea of ​​how the final will look like. With a great result coming out at the weekend, here’s what we’ve learned from the nine games that have just gone by. Geelong has what it takes to win it all Geelong sent out an ominous warning on Thursday night, keeping top-favourites Melbourne at home in what many think is the Grand Final preview. With both sides looking very confident of finishing in the top four, there is no doubt that they are in good combination to keep going. While some will point to this side of the Cat and reason that they often go this far without getting work done when it matters, something feels different about this side in 2022. Having launched many of the same teams over the past few years, the Cats have really found some players this season that have taken them to another level in Tyson Stengle, Sam De Koning, Tom Atkins and Brad Close. With this harvest taking their game to ne...

A university dropout who owed $20,000 before becoming a millionaire at age 26 has shared what he learned from billionaire Sir Richard Branson. Sydney entrepreneur and investor Jack Delosa has come a long way since leaving his trade law degree at the age of 18 to start a business-to-business call center, his first and only failed venture. But despite initial hurdles, in nine years he has founded two multi-million dollar businesses, and written a bestseller. Once dubbed ‘The Young Aussie Millionaire That Didn’t Finish Uni’, five-time AFR Young Rich Lister, now 35, runs coaching giant The Entourage, is writing his third book, and recently bought an island in the Whitsundays. Mr Delosa spoke to Daily Mail Australia after spending the previous week on Branson’s private Caribbean island, hanging out with British business magnates and other well-known businessmen. Between train and bike rides, poolside drinks, tennis and a swim at Necker Island, Delosa said the group sh...
