I think it's an unfortunate result of the habitual argy bargy in here and within the Australian national setting but it's very hard to discuss this and perceived solutions without that breaking down into games and point scoring. Most of us have made these points but the North Shore Axis are only in...

Outdoor masks now mandatory as of tomorrow as is a 5km radius for movement.

Shanky assured me that those measures weren't needed.

Joke that he gets a 2 match ban only.

Given almost no details have been released about the incident, how many matches do you think he should be banned for?

The numbers taking the vaccine over 60 suggest a large degree of hesitancy. That is borne out of the illusion of safety from the border policy, sorry but it is. It didn't happen here, people went out in their droves in the 60s categories once our regulators released it and we had 60s done in a coup...

Because even guy can see what she did was politically motivated. If she truly is apolitical then she should not have commented at all.

Her comment had nothing to do with aligning with ATAGI. It was a highly emotive statement that was made for purely political reasons. She increased the anxiety around AZ. An extremely extremely extremely safe vaccine that could protect millions of Australians from Covid and prevent tens of thousand...

Im not sold that you understand the vaccine situation in Australia. AZ has been barred by our leaders for anyone under 60. I remember when Scotty from marketing came out and dared suggest that those under that age should consult their doctor and try and get AZ. This thing is so fvcking poisonously ...

Scott Morrison has listened to NSW's pleas and has increased weekly pandemic payments to $750 per week, which is what JobKeeper and JobSeeker payments were at their peak last year. Unlike last year, dole payments and other welfare/social security payments will not rise to match this level.

WA is getting more than its fair share of GST actually. They’re benefitting from a pre-Covid deal that boosted their share when mining incomes were down Everyone is upset.

I was twelve going on thirteen first time I saw a dead human being.
It happened in the summer of nineteen-fifty-nine. A long time ago.
But only if you measure in terms of years.
I was living in a small town in Oregon called Castle Rock. There were
only 1281 people, but to me it was the whole world.
