Wednesday Headlines: The fall out continues following Labor’s landslide election win, developments in the NSW double child murder case, Trump says “never say never” after new Canadian PM rules out sale to US, the NRL will get an 18th team from 2027, and we are just one week away from Eurovision.

Deep Dive: Run It Straight, the self-proclaimed “world’s fiercest collision sport,” has exploded on social media for its massive tackles, knockouts, and viral showdowns.
