Macquarie Sports Radio Breakfast With John Stanley & Beau Ryan

After his first ever Bathurst 1000 win, Scott McLaughlin told Macquarie Sports Radio about how he finally fulfilled a life-long dream.  The reigning Supercars champion and 2019 points leader has had an outstanding year to date, holding a resounding lead at the top of the Supercars leader-board. However, the Bathurst 1000 title remained the elusive title for McLaughlin.  As he held off runner-up Shane Van Gisbergen on the final lap for a thrilling finish, McLaughlin admits his win with teammate Alex Premat and whole crew will be one he won't forget. "Yeah it's just been unbelievable. The people you have behind the scenes build you to the person you are, regardless of whatever sport it is. They know how much you're worked for it and it's been eighteen months in the making," McLaughlin said.  "I feel like as me as a driver as well, I feel that with my mindset I've been building on this for a while. At the end of it to just see everyone when we crossed the line and go crazy and shout and yell, it's

As the NRL deal's with its first incident for the 2019 off-season, Premiership winning coach Trent Robinson told Piggy, Levy and Jimmy just how he deals with restraining players behaviour.  Robinson and the Sydney Roosters became the first team to win back-to-back Premierships in a unified competition since the Brisbane Broncos in 1992-93, and revealed that this season was the first that he didn't warn his players heading into the off-season.  "This is actually the first year I haven't said anything to him and that's more because I didn't think about it with my players. That doesn't mean they are perfect or something won't happen, but it's the first time I've said, 'I've seen those guys for eleven months, they'll know what to do over the next month," Robinson said.  The NRL Integrity Unit are investigating Melbourne Storm Prop Nelson Asofa-Solomona after vision showed the Kiwi international allegedly throwing a series of punches outside the La Favela restaurant and bar in Seminyak.  After

After a week of basting in the sun in the Hayman Islands, Piggy has come back as Macquarie Sports Radio's new cocktail extraordinaire.  Coming back to the offices with a tan to make anyone jealous, Piggy has given us the rundown on some of his favourite cocktails he encountered while away.  "The Pina Colada was as the top of the list, and that was our go to cocktail. That was our staple cocktail," Piggy said.  "I had something called a La La Land and that was in a coconut. They would cut open the fresh coconut and it was great. "To be honest, I can't even remember the names of them. I just said to the bloke, 'let's start at the top and work our way through'."  To enjoy  Piña Colada45 ml Malibu Original75 ml Pineapple juice25 ml Coconut cream How to mix the drink:Pour everything into a shaker with ice.Shake, pour and enjoy!  La La Land CocktailINGREDIENTS1.5 nips of Absolut Los Angeles Vodka1 nip of Cranberry Juice1 nip of Pomegranate Juice1 nip of Lemon Lime Soda INST

Former Australian Cricket Coach Darren Lehmann has hit back at Peter Handscomb's comments after Victoria's draw with South Australia in the Sheffield Shield over the weekend.  Handscomb's Victoria set a massive total after they declared at 616/6, before South Australia also put on an impressive batting display as they finished with 527/5.  Not content with having a draw after playing for a number of days, Handscomb who is the Captain of Victoria, questioned the tactics of South Australia believing they weren't playing for a result.  "I'm just annoyed the game is dead. We're all gonna walk away from here with a draw, whereas we could've been competing for something tomorrow," Handscomb said.  Lehmann questioned the comments of Handscomb who thinks the Victorian Captain just simply underestimated their Shield opponent.  "Once you get too 500 you've got plenty of runs. It's a bit weird because they beat South Australia twice last year so he thought they could bowl them out twice," Lehman
