Cameron Green smashed his first Test century on home soil in Darwin, scoring 104 runs to break an 11-innings drought and silence critics who doubted his consistency. Despite Australia’s heavy nine-wicket loss to Bangladesh, Green’s return to his old batting style proved decisive — and captain Pat Cummins hinted he could get a longer run at No. 5. The rest of the top order crumbled under pressure, leaving Green to carry the innings alone. Cummins admitted the team is struggling and needs urgent

Gas prices are forcing a major shift in South Australia, with 46% of residents ditching their cars for walks, buses, or biking—and many cutting back on non-essential trips.

2026/08/17

Australia’s population is set to double to 56 million, but we’re dangerously unprepared. For decades, growth has been funneled into just five cities, straining infrastructure and driving housing costs through the roof. The Gold Coast proves new cities can work — we should’ve copied it more. The real problem? We’ve failed to plan where people will live. Housing, transport, and jobs are treated as separate issues, leading to reactive sprawl. We need a bold, 80-100 year national settlement

While big musicals cancel tours due to soaring costs, Brisbane’s indie theaters are proving that passion can outlast budgets—using volunteer crews, repurposed sets, and clever logistics like carpooling to move gear.
