2025 Peter Mulholland Cup live stream: Endeavour SHS v St Dominic's College, semi-finals

Two of the Schoolboys Cup's exciting fullbacks will go head-to-head to keep their respective school's Peter Mulholland Cup title hopes alive. Endeavour Sports High attacking weapon Jyarah Delaney will be a crucial part of their work on the ball as they aim to bounce back against a St Dominic's College side spearheaded by Panthers young gun Hunter Bell. The winner of Wednesday's semi-final stoush will book a preliminary final spot opposite reigning Peter Mulholland Cup champions Patrician Brothers Blacktown. The semi-final will be exclusively live streamed for free on KommunityTV and News Corp Australia digital mastheads. Bell is one of the most exciting talents coming through the Panthers junior pathways, and he proved why when he helped deliver a sublime quarter-final win over All Saints College, Maitland. The fullback sliced and diced the All Saints defence, scoring one and setting up another. 'He is our fullback and captain, and he was really good,' St Dominic's coach Kyle Churchill said. 'He showed some real touches of class at the right time for us.' But Bell wasn't alone, with Churchill also pointing out a pair of top age backrowers in Cooper Merton (Dragons) and Ryan Gonclaves (Panthers), who have taken it upon themselves to shoulder much of the burden of St Dominic's rise to the finals. 'They are both really reliable and really physical, and probably underestimated in this competition,' Churchill said. 'They are massive for us. The balance of our team is we don't have a lot of under-18s players, so having that select bunch with the experience of being that bit older and bit more physical. They take on more of that responsibility. 'It means our younger blokes then have the opportunity to do what they need to do.' Endeavour Sports High will be smarting after coughing up a 10-point second half lead to a rampaging Bass High in the qualifying finals. Delaney was emphatic in a first half fight-back for the boys from the Shire, setting up a try before scoring one of his own in the middle of a four-try run. But a sin-binning midway through the second half brought it all undone for Endeavour as they coughed up two tries while down a man. But with a representative-level forward pack that features two-time Australian Schoolboys star Tom Dellow, and Sharks SG Ball bash brothers Jake White and Hudsyn Frost, Endeavour will not be a side worth underestimating. 'It doesn't matter who they put on the team sheet, we know we are going to have to work hard against Endeavour,' Churchill said.

AFL's Snoop Dogg hypocrisy laid bare as Izak Rankine handed season-ending ban for homophobic slur

Don't miss out on the headlines from AFL. Followed categories will be added to My News. Warning: This article contains language that some readers may find offensive The AFL world has slammed the league's clear double standards in the wake of Crows star Izak Rankine reportedly being handed a season-ending ban. On Tuesday night it emerged that Rankine will reportedly be handed a five-match ban for an alleged homophobic slur towards a Collingwood player on Saturday night. And while the reported five-game ban will see him miss the remainder of the 2025 season, the same league is paying another man, who has used the same slur in his songs, millions to entertain fans at the AFL's showpiece event, this year's AFL Grand Final. has reached out to the AFL for comment on the situation following the impending Rankine ban.

But many pointed out it is incredibly hypocritical to ban a star forward for a premiership contender, all while holding a musical artist to a totally different set of standards. Snoop Dogg, real name Calvin Cordozar Broadus Jr, has previously been banned from entering Australia as a result of his long criminal record and music littered with homophobic and misogynistic language. In his song Doggz Gonna Get Ya, his lyrics include the slur that is set to cost Rankine dearly. 'I can't believe that Dogg would dis me, that f****t that punk he soft or sissy,' Snoop says in his 1998 hit. The AFL's awkward Snoop Dogg situation in the wake of Izak Rankin's ban.

'I don't agree for one moment when these comments are made that the players should not be penalised,' he told Adelaide Now. 'But the AFL have done themselves no favour at all when on the one hand their leading artist, on the biggest day in the season, uses these lyrics and has done so many, many times. 'Yet on the other hand, they now see fit to potentially penalise another AFL player for doing exactly the same thing. 'So, where does the AFL stand on this? They're either for it or against it.' While Former Hawthorn president Jeff Kennett said it was just another case of hypocrisy. 'They are about to suspend Adelaide player Izak Rankin for directing a homophobic comment to a Collingwood player last weekend, while paying Snoop Dog millions to entertain at the Grand Final,' Kennett wrote on X. 'Imagine if Adelaide make the GF, without their best player, and Snoop Dog plays. The AFL should stop being the arbiter of good taste. They always fail. Like their condemnation of Clubs with gaming machines, while they reap millions from gambling.' KG Cunningham is an Australian radio personality, and a former cricketer and football umpire.

(Photo by Christopher Polk/Billboard via Getty Images) AFL fans echoed a similar sentiment on X. 'The AFL is going to cause Izak Rankine to miss a Grand Final for using a word. At that same GF, the AFL is going to be paying Snoop Dogg millions to sing his songs,' one user wrote. 'His songs contain that exact same word. Plus many other offensive words. The AFL's hypocrisy is breathtaking.' While another said: 'So the AFL ban Rankine for the finals for using a homophobic slur a week after booking Snoop Dogg for the finals for $5 million, who uses the same slur in internet posts and lyrics in his songs. Couldn't make it up.' Never miss the latest sports news from Australia and around the world — download the app direct to your phone. Izak Rankine reportedly handed season-ending ban In Saturday's clash between Collingwood and Adelaide, Crows star Rankine allegedly called his opponent a f****t. It led to the AFL launching an investigation into his conduct, which reportedly concluded on Tuesday, with the league determining the conduct was deserving of a season-ending ban. However, as of Wednesday morning, the AFL has not formally revealed the outcome of the investigation. But Footy presenter Eddie McGuire claimed he had the early mail on the call on Channel 9's Footy Classified on Tuesday night that the Crows star's season was over. 'Izak Rankine's season is over,' he said. 'Tonight the AFL will send a letter to Adelaide and my understanding is the suspension is for five weeks. His season is finished in 2025. 'The Adelaide Football Club will have the opportunity to appeal the sanction, because they could argue it is unjust.'
