Details of the crash at Mamaku near Rotorua and the man’s name remain secret.

Justin Evans, 24, vanished after leaving his monastic cell on Papa Stronsay.

He may be a rugby fan at heart, but there's now a Western Bulldogs membership ticket with Prince Harry's name on it.

The Duke of Sussex took part in a kickaround with children and players at the team's headquarters at Mission Whitten Oval in Footscray, Melbourne on day two of his Australia visit and proved to fans that he has a "six out of 10" ability to punt the football.

Western Bulldogs trio Matthew Kennedy, Tom Liberatore and Adam Treloar had some one-on-one time with the former royal on the field.

After admitting he was a little starstruck, Kennedy had a measured response when asked about Harry's skills on the field.

"I gave him a six out of 10, still a bit of an improvement to go, but he was really good, he asked us plenty of questions and it was great pleasure to meet him," Kennedy told Nine.com.au.

"He needs to probably get the ball spinning in the right direction.

"There was a few floaters in there, so, that's probably a start."

The Bulldogs midfielder presented Harry with a team scarf, which the duke wore proudly for the rest of his visit.

Kennedy joked that he might convince the duke to sign up as a Bulldogs member if his team can lock in a win on Friday.

"I think that's gonna be pretty tough, but we'll see how we go," he laughed.

"Maybe we get the win this weekend, we can get him across."

Kennedy, who welcomed his son Theo in 2024, said the pair also bonded over fatherhood.

"We spoke about a bit about his, sporting background with rugby, [a] bit about AFL and bit about our kids and stuff, it was a great opportunity," Kennedy said.

"You don't get to do that every day… it's pretty awesome."

Earlier, Treloar told reporters he thought Harry's visit was a "big joke" until he saw the media start setting up.

He was chosen as one the players to kick the ball with Harry only yesterday.

"I still didn't really believe it until he came walking out," Treloar said.

"We don't usually get that out here in Footscray, so it's pretty cool."

During his visit, Harry told the players he often followed the AFL fixtures from his home in the US.

"He was a little bit disappointed that we gave him a kid's footy," Treloar added.

"He wanted one of the, the real ones, but he went OK."

Harry took to the field after joining a panel on mental health hosted by Melbourne-based charity Movember.

Harry and wife Meghan, Duchess of Sussex, are focusing on events that champion community resilience, support for the armed forces and mental health during their whirlwind four-day visit.

It's their first visit since their 2018 royal tour, and the first since they quit the monarchy in 2020.

The couple will head to Canberra, before returning to Melbourne for a brief visit and a stop in Sydney.

Australia's cost-of-living and housing availability crises are making it "impossible" for women and children to flee family and domestic violence, according to new data from St Vincent De Paul Society.

Sixty percent of respondents in a national survey said they could not confidently afford to leave their homes if their safety depended on it, citing upfront rental costs and limited availability of safe, affordable housing.

One in 10 said they would have nowhere safe to go if they had to leave their home.

Women and children fleeing family violence are the largest group experiencing homelessness in Australia, according to St Vincent De Paul Society Victoria CEO Charlie Spendlove.

"Women's homelessness doesn't look the way most people expect," Spendlove said.

"It hides in cars, on couches, in unsafe temporary arrangements – and because it's hidden, it's easier to miss and easier to underfund.

"We recently supported a woman, 'Sarah', who had spent 15 years building what looked like a stable, secure life.

"Behind closed doors, she was experiencing significant violence.

"When she made the brave decision to leave, she didn't just lose her relationship, she lost her home.

"For months, Sarah was sleeping in her car. She tried rooming houses, but they felt so unsafe and unsustainable that she returned to the streets.

"For her, the car was the safest option available in a system that wasn't meeting her needs."

She said Sarah was eventually able to transition into a secure long-term home with help from VincentCare.

"This research shows that the cost-of-living crisis is making an impossible situation worse," Spendlove said.

The data, released ahead of the annual Vinnies CEO Sleepout in Melbourne in June, also showed more than half of respondents wouldn't feel comfortable disclosing family violence to their employer and only 18 percent would know how to help a colleague they suspected was in need.

Spendlove called on businesses to take a direct stake in solving the issue, saying the sleepout was a leadership opportunity as well as a fundraiser.

"Nearly one in ten Australians say they'd have nowhere to go. That number should stop every business leader in their tracks," she said.

"The CEO Sleepout is a chance to step up publicly, help fund a safe way out, and bring others with you."

A teacher accused of snapping and stabbing his school's principal has indicated he will plead guilty and is negotiating an offer with the prosecution.

Kim Ramchen, 37, is facing five charges including recklessly engaging in conduct, intentionally causing injury and assault with a weapon, over the stabbing in December.

The Keysborough College teacher is accused of arming himself with a knife from the school kitchen and stabbing principal Aaron Sykes after being told his contract would not be renewed.

Ramchen was due to face Dandenong Magistrates Court today via video link from prison, however he did not appear for the brief hearing.

His lawyer Ruth Parker said Ramchen was aware of what was happening and they proceeded in his absence.

She said a psychological report had been prepared after concerns about Ramchen's mental fitness.

A hearing in February was told Ramchen had been diagnosed with autism, schizophrenia spectrum disorders and PTSD, but was not unwell while in custody.

At that time Parker raised concerns that he may not be fit to give her instructions on how to progress the matter.

She said today a fresh psychiatric report found he had "very serious issues", but he was fit to give instructions and Ramchen had met with one of her staff yesterday.

"In those circumstances, Your Honour, what is proposed is that the matter be adjourned to a future date for plea hearing," Parker told the court.

"We understand the matter is likely to resolve."

Ramchen is yet to formally enter a plea of guilty.

Parker said she was in discussions with the prosecution about the plea, and she still needed to make a formal offer on what Ramchen will plead guilty to.

Magistrate Frances Medina set down a one-hour plea hearing for April 29 at the court in Dandenong, where Ramchen will face the court remotely from prison.

He is the son of former Price Is Right host Jacqui Ramchen who disappeared in 1992, with his late father charged over her killing until a magistrate found there was not enough evidence to commit him to trial.

Ramchen had taken on a parental role within the family after his mother disappeared and his father died from cancer when he was 14, his brother Lev told the court in December.

A top member of Congress has proposed a team of experts that would determine whether Donald Trump is fit to remain as president.

Democratic Representative Jamie Raskin has submitted legislation that would create an "independent commission on presidential capacity".

The commission would be tasked with deciding whether to activate the 25th Amendment, a law that allows for a president to be removed from office if they are no longer up to the job.

READ MORE: Top Democrat demands Donald Trump submit to a dementia test

While the commission would apply to all future presidents, Raskin specifically cited the behaviour of Trump in motivating the legislation.

"Public trust in Donald Trump's ability to meet the duties of his office has dropped to unprecedented lows as he threatens to destroy entire civilisations, unleashes chaos in the Middle East while violating Congressional war powers, aggressively insults the Pope of the Catholic Church and sends out artistic renderings online likening himself to Jesus Christ," Raskin said in a statement. 

"We are at a dangerous precipice.

"It is now a matter of national security for Congress to fulfill its responsibilities under the 25th Amendment to protect the American people from an increasingly volatile and unstable situation."

The bipartisan commission would consist of eight retired statespersons including former presidents, vice presidents and cabinet members, selected by both parties.

And party leaders would also select four doctors and four psychiatrists to serve on the body.

The commission would then select a 17th member themselves.

With the consent of the vice president, the commission could decide whether to activate the 25th amendment.

Raskin's legislation is likely not to pass into law because Democrats are in the minority in both chambers.

But fifty Democrats are cosponsoring the legislation nevertheless.

In recent weeks many prominent conservatives have begun publicly expressing concern about Trump's mental state."He's clearly not well," his former press secretary Stephanie Grisham said last week.

"This isn't 'just Trump being Trump'."

And Trump's former lawyer Ty Cobb said the president was "clearly insane".

"It highlights the level of his insanity and his depravity," Cobb said.

"I think he's gone."

Last week Raskin wrote to the White House doctor demanding Trump take a dementia test.

Raskin requested a comprehensive cognitive test, with the results to be shared with Congress.

He cited Trump's profane social media post on Easter Sunday in which he threatened to destroy Iranian civilian infrastructure, dropped the F-word and praised Allah.

But the president's behaviour has become a talking point in American media in his second term. 

In a cabinet meeting he spoke for several minutes about a conversation he had with the CEO of the company that makes Sharpies, which the company said never took place.

He spoke for eight minutes about poisonous snakes in Peru during a Christmas event.

He claimed to have ended a non-existent war between Cambodia and Armenia.

He also apparently concocted a long anecdote about his uncle's interactions at college with the Unabomber, even though his uncle died before the terrorist was identified.

And after posting an AI-generated image of himself as Jesus Christ this week, he later claimed he thought it showed him as a doctor.

The 25th Amendment has never been invoked to permanently remove a president from power.

Working out at a specific time of day could seriously boost sleep and heart health.

But what time of day works best varies from person to person.

New research has shown timing exercise to match your body clock chronotype can improve sleep quality and may also lower heart disease risk factors like high blood pressure, fasting glucose, and 'bad' cholesterol.

LIVE UPDATES: US forces 'sitting ducks' in the Strait of Hormuz, warns expert

Your body clock chronotype is an innate predisposition to sleeping at waking at certain times, and explains why some people are early risers or night owls.

It also affects hormone secretion and energy availability across the day.

Researchers from Pakistan and Scotland have found that timing your exercise to your body clock chronotype could boost positive health outcomes.

They tested 150 people aged 40 to 60 with at least one cardiovascular risk factor to figure out their chronotypes, then randomly assigned them a time to work out.

Some were given time slots that matched their chronotypes, like between 8am to 11am for morning people, while others were given mismatched slots.

They were then told to work out five times a week for 12 weeks and their results monitored.

Data showed that all the participants experiences better aerobic fitness and sleep quality, and lower cardiovascular disease risk factors after the 12 weeks were up.

But those who had their exercise time slot matched to their chronotype showed much bigger improvements.

Their blood pressure, autonomic function (including heart rate), aerobic capacity, metabolic markers, and sleep quality were significantly better than those who had mismatched exercise time slots.

Morning people who had exercise slots matched to their chronotype showed even better results.

"This study adds to a growing body of evidence suggesting that the timing of exercise when aligned with an individual's internal biological clock can significantly enhance health outcomes," the researchers wrote in journal Open Heart.

Working out your own chronotype can be as simple as filling out the Morningness-Eveningness Questionnaire online, which was used to assess the chronotypes of the people in the study.

Those wanting a more concrete assessment can speak to a health professional.

Donald Trump's vice president has said the pope 'needs to be careful' when commenting on theology.

JD Vance, who converted to Catholicism seven years ago, made the comments at a Turning Point USA event.

"In the same way that it's important for the vice president of the United States to be careful when I talk about matters of public policy, I think it's very, very important for the Pope to be careful when he talks about matters of theology," Vance said.

"If you're going to opine on matters of theology, you've got to be careful, you've got to make sure it's anchored in the truth. 

"That's one of the things that I try to do, and it's certainly something I would expect from the clergy, whether they're Catholic or Protestant."

Vance was responding to Pope Leo XIV's message days ago in favour of peace.

"God does not bless any conflict," the pope said.

"Anyone who is a disciple of Christ, the Prince of Peace, is never on the side of those who once wielded the sword and today drop bombs."

Vance said the pope's comments were in contradiction to a "more than thousand-year tradition of Just War theory".

"He said that God is never on the side of those who wield the sword…how can you say that?" Vance said.

"Was God on the side of the Americans who liberated France from the Nazis?

"Was God on the side of the Americans who liberated Holocaust camps and liberated those innocent people from those who had survived the Holocaust?"

Vance has publicly espoused his Catholic faith, including penning an autobiography about his faith journey this year.

The vice president was baptised as a Catholic in 2019, three years before he entered electoral politics. Before that he identified as an atheist.

Vance's comments come days after Trump drew the ire of Christians by posting an AI-generated image of himself as Jesus Christ.

READ MORE: Top Democrat demands Donald Trump submit to a dementia test

In the image, Trump is dressed in robes and healing a man with glowing light from his hand. In the foreground a kneeling woman prays to him.

Trump later deleted the image and claimed he was actually being depicted as a doctor.

Vance meanwhile brushed off the criticism by claiming Trump was making a joke.

"I think the president was posting a joke, and of course, he took it down because he recognised a lot of people weren't understanding his humour," Vance said.

Earlier this week, Trump accused Pope Leo as being "weak on crime".

The first American pope, Leo XIV has been the head of the Catholic Church for less than a year.

The Chicago-born pontiff was ordained in 1982 and became a cardinal in 2023.

A South Australia Police superintendent in charge of enforcing road safety has been fined after he used a mobile phone while riding a bike.

Superintendent Shane Johnson, who heads up SA Police's Traffic Services Branch, was issued an expiation notice after taking a selfie while cycling down a back street and posting it to his Strava account.

Johnson said he had been "winding down" after a 202-kilometre ride with friends on October 18 and was less than 100 metres from his home when he took the photo.

The image, obtained by the Adelaide Advertiser, shows the superintendent wearing a helmet and smiling while holding his phone for a selfie.

Johnson shared the image to GPS tracking app Strava, which cyclists and runners regularly use to log their rides.

Under SA law, cyclists must obey the same road rules as drivers and using a mobile phone while riding a bike is considered a traffic offence.

Johnson admitted using his phone while on a bike was a "lapse in judgement".

"I take full responsibility for my actions. I acknowledge I have done the wrong thing and accept the consequences," Johnson added.

"No-one is immune from road traffic laws.

"Every road user needs to remain alert and aware of the rules when using mobile phones not just for their own safety, but that of other road users."

The incident has been referred to the to SAPOL's Ethical and Professional Standards Branch.

An internal conduct investigation remains ongoing.

Israeli police say they found about 70 Palestinian men hiding in a garbage truck as they attempted to cross into Israel, apparently in search of work.

The men were discovered on Monday at a West Bank checkpoint, north of Jerusalem, reports Associated Press.

Footage from the scene shows the men packed inside the truck, piled one on top of another in the vehicle's waste compartment.

LIVE UPDATES: Ship turned around at US blockade

Police are seen in the video, some with their weapons drawn, surrounding the truck.

Within minutes of their discovery, officers removed them one by one as garbage fell from the vehicle.

The 30-year-old Israeli man driving the garbage truck was arrested and questioned by police.

Israel's Defence Ministry said the men were "trying to infiltrate central Israel" and that they were stopped at a West Bank checkpoint.

Authorities did not provide details on the motive for the attempted entry, but Ital Almog, a local police commander, described them as "illegal entrants," a term that usually refers to Palestinians entering Israel in search of work.

Israeli police have routinely reported illegal entrants from the Israeli-occupied West Bank after Israel revoked tens of thousands of Palestinian work permits since Hamas' October 7, 2023 attack.

The large number of men and grim conditions of the garbage truck incident highlighted the level of desperation and the lengths that some are willing to go.
