Outback QLD drenched with year's rain in 2 days — and more

Parts of outback Queensland have experienced extraordinary rainfall, with some areas receiving almost a full year's worth of precipitation in just 48 hours. The deluge comes as meteorologists predict continued wet weather across south-east Queensland throughout the weekend.

Texas A&M arrived at the 2026 NFL Combine with a program‑record 13 participants, and on the opening day of testing, one former Aggie has wasted no time separating himself from the pack.

Albert Regis, a longtime anchor of Texas A&M’s interior defensive line, is putting together one of the most impressive performances among defensive tackles. Known throughout his college career for his explosiveness, high motor, and ability to collapse the pocket, Regis is now backing that reputation with elite athletic testing in Indianapolis.

Regis’s best season came as a senior, when he posted 49 tackles, 3.0 tackles for loss, and 2.0 sacks, but his impact always extended beyond the box score. Interior defenders rarely rack up gaudy numbers—what matters is how consistently they disrupt blocking schemes and force quarterbacks off their spot. In a league increasingly focused on neutralizing edge rushers, controlling the middle of the field has become one of the most valuable traits a defensive lineman can offer.

While Regis may not measure in as one of the biggest or longest prospects in this year’s defensive tackle class, he is testing like one of the most explosive. His 9’8” broad jump, the best mark among all defensive tackles, showcased the lower‑body power that defined his game in College Station. He followed that up with a pair of impressive 40‑yard dash times—4.92 on his first attempt and 4.88 on his second, the fifth‑fastest among defensive tackles—paired with a strong 1.73-second 10‑yard split that reflects his first‑step quickness.

For a player whose calling card has always been disruption, today’s numbers only reinforce what Texas A&M coaches long believed: Regis has the athletic profile to carve out a role at the next level.

Below you can find his 40‑yard dash results and video of his on‑field drills.

Brann appeared poised to achieve a significant result against Bologna before the match took an unexpected turn. The game's dynamics shifted dramatically after a red card was issued, creating a situation that has left football experts divided in their assessment.

While some analysts describe the decision as unfortunate and a matter of bad luck, others maintain that the red card was justified given the circumstances of the match. This disagreement among experts highlights the subjective nature of refereeing decisions in professional football.

NEW YORK (AP) — Minnesota Timberwolves All-Star Anthony Edwards was fined $25,000 by the NBA on Thursday for “throwing the game ball with force into the spectator stands,” the league announced.

The incident occurred at halftime of Minnesota's victory at Portland on Tuesday. After a missed shot by the Trail Blazers as the buzzer sounded, Edwards casually grabbed the loose ball and hurled it the length of the floor toward the opposite basket. The NBA's announcement included video that showed the ball appearing to hit an arena staff member in the head.

Edwards was fined a total of $420,000 by the league last season for eight different transgressions, mostly for profane language in postgame interviews. After one incident he was docked $35,000 for failing to leave the court in a timely manner and throwing the ball into the stands after his ejection from a game.
