Don't think so.

Is that verified? I went to school with Singo.
It’s being reported.

At first I thought the daughter might have been the youngish mother.

He really loves all his very extended family. I hope he can get through it.

Is that true? So not the NZ rivalry... but rather Fijian tours saved the day? To be fair.. they probably were fantastic to watch. Did they play Australia as well? And did they win? This is back in the days when rugby was a pretty slow game, and as a sport was up against league which was overwhelmin...

Sort of comforting. :thumbup: I have had a few problems. But nothing too serious. That said I do a lot of "maintenance". On the body of course. And always a positive outlook... or so it seems to an outsider. Can't have been easy supporting the Wallabies at least the last ten years. I grew up loving...

Thanks - on behalf of me.

Mungo Mark has been dropped from the Tahs squad for their game this week... Mentally checked out before the season began. Is it just me or has his form been poor this year? He was one of the best players in Australia in the previous couple of years and then he went downhill after signing with Mungo...

The 80s were 'my time' imo but I always felt the 60s were the coolest. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kZcyRLtwUVY I was in high school when this came out. Christalmighty. :shock: Peace and love man.

It's not a great song, but it is pretty good. Flower power!! What went wrong?

Love a good rendang. Good choice. Very popular here.

Try Bibimbap. It tastes better.

Wait until Schmidt coaches him.

I was talking to some Jewish friends last night, they and their friends are all extremely unhappy that this awful war has not been finished, and Bibi put in gaol where he belongs.

I thought Wright had a great game. When he is good, he is very good.

Most of the players at the Brumbies were developed at the Brumbies.

Whereas we know that most all talent actually arises from Eastwood!

Mmmm. Not quite. A few.

Albo is on the way down. We are looking at a hung parliament soon. Some of the TEALS will lose their seats, the Greens will grow in strength. Chalmers is making all the running for the Government. Are these long range predictions for the next election? The SMH are ripping into Albo for swanning aro...

Regardless, Toole is significantly bigger than Kolbe, so I’m keen to learn from those stating definitively that Toole if Kolbe is too also small to make it as a professional player. And how would Kolbe go as a Wallaby winger? He’s the best winger in the world, so I dare say he’d be fantastic. Or am...

The best thing about him is that he played club rugby.

The Reds were terrible, almost without exception.

Great to see another NSW reject in Tizzano doing well. Not to mention Eastwood product Nick White.

And Donaldson was outstanding. HMP did okay when he came on, but it was all over by then.

Simon Cron shows why he is one of our best coaches.

I don’t think we can blame any Oz player that goes overseas - RA apparently don’t have money for market competitive contracts, but they do have $1.6m a year for a league bloke…… The players must be filthy.

Or if you old enough to remember them, Ken Catchpole and Phil Hawthorne. I decided to chase up ancient film / video of the the pair and found this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jdxTB88eBqE&t=2s I'm scratching my head a bit about the jersey numbering, tho'.

For the Wobs... Front row: Rodriguez, Lawton, McIntyre Second row: Eales, Giffen Back row: Kefu, Smith, Finegan Halves: NFJ, Lynagh Centres: Horan, Little Back 3: Roff, Tune, Burke Tempted to go Cutler and Williams for the second row, they were pretty dominant in the 80s, in the line out at least. ...

Corruption was rampant back then, everywhere you looked. Illegal casinos, SP betting, sly grog shops (we had 6 pm closing).

The cops were the worst of the lot.

I'd still go Lolesio though, he's got experience . I'd prefer a 10 with talent.

The Tahs were outmuscled.

Gleeson did better this week I thought.

Great work wamberal, you're definitely very active! The majority of my friends are dead. Why the focus on isometric stuff? Not a focus, it is an add on. Just gives me a bit more activity. (It is recommended by a Professor Gordon Lynch, we have been listening to his programme on the ABC for years.)

Unless I make a conscious decision to go for a decent walk I rarely achieve that except on the days I play golf. So hitting 15-20k consistently sounds very impressive to me. How is your blo...
