Comeback Kid have announced an Australian tour for early 2026, taking place across late January and early February. The tour will mark the band's first in three years, and comes after their recent announcement on the Froth & Fury line-up alongside the likes of Polaris, Soulfly and In Hearts Wake. The full list of tour dates, as well as pre-sale and ticketing information, can be found below.

Argentina and Exeter lock Molina joins Western Force
Powerful Argentina lock Franco Molina penned a two-year contract with Western Force Friday, beefing up the Super Rugby side's tight-five stocks. The 27-year-old joins the Perth-based team from England's Exeter Chiefs, where he was a regular fixture last season. "Franco is a big powerful body, with a high work rate," said Force coach Simon Cron. "He's very, very driven to be the best he can be." Molina has 12 Argentina caps so far after debuting last year against France, including playing twice against the Wallabies. He was also in the starting Pumas line-up for last month's 28-24 win over the British and Irish Lions in Dublin ahead of Andy Farrell's team's departure for their Australia tour. Molina, who will complement Wallabies pair Jeremy Williams and Darcy Swain in the Force second row, said he was excited by the opportunity. "I can't wait to contribute to the team, help the club achieve its goals and be part of something special here," he said. He will arrive in Perth following the Rugby Championship from August to October where he is again expected to line-up for Argentina against Australia. mp/tym
