:lol: Actually came back from a wedding reception where everyone were sad about the Wallabies but laughing at the ABs. Bit like that world cup where we lost but then NZ also lost in the game.. I was flying home from Tassie when that happened. DIdn’t watch either game and didn’t even look for possib...

By"updated" they mean without needing US permission to use them? Taurus is ITAR free as far as I know. Production stopped in 2020 and the oldest missiles, which would be mostly Bundeswehr stock, are up to 20 years old. The Spanish missiles are all around 16 years old. Tech has moved on and they all...

his with a mate the other day. The spate of underworld killings in Sydney puts the Melbourne stuff to shame. The cops and the public don’t feel to fussed about it though… The Forest Lodge one was weird I was 25m away when it happend which was a bit of a shock :| It’ll probably take a couple more cl...

Ideology is different but modus operandi and effect is the same. Not the electoral effect. One frequently gets a seat at the table of government and the other does not. The Nats are living proof that early settlers interfered with kangaroos. Their electoral position is testament to the fact that th...

Things getting spicy with Iran... Prime Minister Anthony Albanese has announced that the Iranian government directed at least two attacks against the Jewish community in Australia. The attacks were against the Adass Israel Synagogue in Melbourne and the Lewis’ Continental Kitchen in Sydney. Albanes...

Makes Netanyahu look like an even more complete wit kant than he did before. It appears that the govt is going to declare the revolutionary guard a terrorist organisation. Could make things interesting if he declares the crim groups as terrorist organisations as well. Time to deport criminals involv...

I'm not blaming the ref, mate. Doleman is terrible - absolutely inept. I bet both teams could show several bizarre decisions that few other referees would ever make. For example..... he called two knock-ons against Australia when no Australian was near the ball. Fortunately the touch judges reverse...

Just saw a video of Bok no 6 twisting Wright"s leg on the play before he got injured. He was fine afterwards but it could've weakensed weakened the knees before he got injured. Drug cheating and dirty play, Springbok constant. Go easy. That’s out of line. Insulting to dirty players and drug cheats?

One thing that isn't obvious from the "line" is how ingrained afl is in the culture. Working in Sydney for most of my professional life. It was eye opening when I joined an organisation hqd in Melbourne. I'd say I've heard less than a dozen casual nrl conversations in sydney offices (other than SOO...

People still talk about the Adelaide Rams with tears in their eyes here. They were a soccer team, or hockey maybe? I tried to mention the win over SA on the weekend, nope. Everything is just crows crows crows. I grew up in Adelaide and played a bit of union at school (and quite a bit of AFL club an...

With Willie at the back we are going to see a much more controlled old school Bok game centered around set pieces and kicking for territory. They can not compete with Australia running a wide ball in hand game. I expect much more tight play attacking right off the posts by the ruck. Agree 100% If A...

It’ll take well over 15yrs for our energy system to be fixed up. Your investment should pay for itself many times by then. That’s roughly the time it will take to get supply back into something like a steady state as regards the sources of supply. Yes, I know that at present there are coal-fired po...

presumably when America manages to force down drug prices, the savings will be passed on to patients so they can actually get affordable medication? Well considering the kind of mark ups on drugs as it is right now I doubt any big cuts are coming in to make prices comparable to many other parts of ...

Fair. Didn't see that. That's hyperbole from Message.

AFL has more money but they are saturation point and NRL could expand more it Queensland and New Zealand.

I was prepared to overlook the uniform and accent - even bracing myself in case he said the plane was made of aloominum - but multiple use of the word turban, when he must have known he meant turbine, was just too provocative for a person to handle.

Boeing should be f-cked to be fair. I try to avoid flying their planes whenever possible. Not because I think they will crash, I just don't want to reward their price-cutting and corner-cutting that costs lives. It's not Boeing any more. It's been taken over by the accountants who were running McDo...

That's disappointing af. I don't give a fudge about Israel or Iran or the USA. Let them fight their own battles and let's stay out of it. It certainly is; not surprising, tho’. Despite the LNP’s predictable whining about the Labor govt. being too weak etc etc, there is something very much like bipa...

basically can apply to all three beligerents with Iran on this one. they have a shitty government but the people are fantastic.

What sort of rate do farms increase in value? And how would you get the farm into super in the first place - there is only so much you can add each year before you pay taxes, and I think its capped at like $30k? It’s capped at 150k these days. But it didn’t use to be. Besides, farms are just one ex...

Not a bad thing for the Liberals to be honest. They can cut ties with the extremist right from the Nats and actually look to try and become a progressive party they should be. They will still see preferences flow from the Nats, and they can negotiate with the Nats going forward to reach government....

I played a cricket game against an adult Sri Lankan selection or whatever it was called when I was around 17. I doubt there was a single player in that team over 5'8" They're not big people so I would suspect even the full Sri Lankan rugby team wouldn't have too many 110KG players. I could be wrong...
