You don’t need to be an American football fan to be interested in this morning’s Super Bowl – the mega sporting event that will see the Philadelphia Eagles take on the Kansas City Chiefs in Arizona (just nod…). If you’re NFL literate, this is the breakdown for you. If not, the talking point today is there are a couple of Aussies playing for Philly: Arryn Siposs, a punter (no, his job isn’t to place the team’s bets…), and Jordan Mailata, an offensive lineman (and no, his job isn’t to swear at the opposition…). Both have great backstories, so get around them. There are also plenty of eyes on brothers Travis and Jason Kelce because it’s the first time in NFL history that two brothers will play against each other in a Super Bowl. Long story short, the Eagles are the favourite to win. But if sport isn’t your thing, Rihanna is headlining the halftime show. And there’s always the Puppy Bowl
