Foketi is not an ‘ex leaguie’

He’s a union junior who went to France for a year or two.
Probably never played a game of league in his life

Holy shit.

That’s bad form

From an Aussie perspective, will be interesting to see White, Donaldson and Beale operating as a unit.
With both White and Beale’s experience around him, let’s see what Donaldson can produce.

This probably would have been quite a good game in 2017. Reads a bit more like a retirement home in 2024.

Yeah. That’s some time machine stuff there!

In NSW, the poles and wires are government owned Essential Energy (the former Country Energy is). Two others (Ausgrid and Endeavour Energy) have some complicated, very long-term lease arrangement to private enterprise and Transgrid was, AFAIK, just plain sold. Still ‘owned’ though, and heavily regu...

In NSW, the poles and wires are government owned Good to know - we're still getting bummed on charges :x Yes. The gold-plating thing was annoying alright The new problem is that the wires don’t go to the places where the wind blows. That’s why the Govt (to their modest credit) are setting up these ...

Some delightful shilling on behalf of Russia. One could just as easily contend, and perhaps more accurately, a Ukraine that was also attuned to the West was more valuable to the West for how that would deepen the connection to Russia. And no matter how much Ukraine looked increasingly to the West t...

You could try that?
That's an awesome idea, I can't possibly imagine what could go wrong!

ikr?

The MAGA argument is of course, nonsense

Allowing Russia to successfully invade and therefore emboldening China to attack Taiwan and destroy the semiconductor economy is never in the USA’s interests

But Trump doesn’t care - he just wants to ‘win’.

If a coach tried a prayer circle at my junior club, they would promptly be told to get f**ked.

Probably by every grade from u11s up.
It’s the ACT

Less secular, more like godless
My junior club was in NSW.

I know. Was just allowing you to self-incriminate a la Sluggy McRake, KC

When my eldest was in U12 they got this new coach in and he made them do a prayer circle before and after every training session and game. Weird. That is weird. Lots of Pasifika lads there? Or more of your Christian Brothers oldskool? Nah, almost all Pasifika or Kiwis. The coach who I first saw doi...

Mate, take it easy with the big words, you're talking to Queenslanders.

Egalitarian and secular? Could you please spell those so I can google them?

You’re the Daddy here. No doubt.

IMHO this thread should be one of those protected threads where mindless, unimaginative, arse-achingly dull trolling - should be banned

Who’s with me on this?

Let attention-seeking incels infest the regular threads instead of a thread where one country has invaded another country.

I am sure we all agree that the law is an ass

Yeah?

Cool. So you can headbutt someone so long as you miss, but a clumsy tackle is worse Got it I don't know if they take intent into consideration? I mean, if someone threw a massive swinging arm and missed completely, there's intent but no actual contact. Would/should they still be sanctioned? Apparen...

‘Grow a spine’ seems to also mean ‘endure endless, gloating shitty-winner threads because we said so’

That is messed up.

I think, regardless of sickness, everyone (including AB supporters) were very happy that the Boks won in 1995

Sadly, in the years since, some Bok ‘fans’ have done their best to make us regret that sentiment.

shanky

I’m again baffled

How does Fraser get 3 weeks for a head-clash and the Drua guy get two weeks for a head-butt?

The tribunal is a farce.

True but pace helps with everything.
Lolesio’s speed is definitely not an issue.

Running at 10 is overrated anyway. South Africa have won 4 World Cups without a running 10.

How many triple-threat FHs do you think we have?

Justice Lee has a nice way with words…

Rugby is a great game. That any solid club man can get a game in a new country for a while, chase the girls, make some friends - is one of the strengths of our game.
