Which steroids is this bloke taking? https://encrypted-tbn0.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcQIecOFeAD5JGi_323HHVx1UJYTLTfdqshuMA&usqp=CAU Probably none. I dunno. Which steroids was this guy taking? Answer: all of them that he possibly could. https://oncodaily.com/pub/uploads/2024/08/IMG_9607.jpg

What steroids at the players taking? Whatever they can get away with. 100%. What can they get away with? Is it a pre-season thing or do they keep juicing during the season? I have no idea mate. If I had to guess I reckon a lot of them were on gear in off-seasons during amateur years when testing wa...

Folk are just BIGGER now. Many 15 year olds tower over me, even the girls. And I'm 178 cm Dude, don't come to Sweden. The people are tall generally but it seems the girls are way taller - on average - than the men. The guys seems to be more to international norms apart from the disturbingly common ...

I am by no means suggesting that shorter guys cannot be tough or fast or hard. Merely that if we are seeking to give "smaller" people a more level playing field then height might be a healthier way to control for size. Maybe. For me, it’s not really about levelling the field for the so-called "smal...

Thank you, yes, other sports have found that they need to give participants the chance to weigh in and then have time/space to take on (mostly) fluid. Unfortunately, human nature being what it is, big people will see it as an opportunity to be at the top of the evolutionary heap for 80 minutes. I w...

Mog The Almighty

Yeah, but there's only so much weight you can drop to do that. Let's say you could drop 5 kg to make weight. You'd effectively have a 90 kg weight grade comp, which still accomplishes the general goal of limiting the weights of players. I think his point is that it's just dangerous to play rugby de...

Mog The Almighty

Other sports with weight classes face the following issue: Competitors seek to manage their weight so that they can meet the limit at the appointed time before the competition - whether that is 1 or 2 hours or 18. They then pile the fluids back on and are more their 'natural' size when the whistle ...

In the broader sense, I see this election as a conclusive rejection of Trumpian idiocracy in Australia. Even a much more mild version. That makes me very happy.

Better still if Bolt and Reinhardt & co. can please cry my the Amazon River. F-cking morons.

So where does this leave the Coalition's Nuclear energy plans? The Australian public clearly are not interested in Nuclear energy. It's clear that this policy was always just a compromise to keep the Nationals on board and avoid a civil war between them and the Liberals within the Coalition. David ...

Real shame seeing the stock price absolutely tank

As I alluded to earlier, I worried that people would make a lot of noise but wouldn't really do anything than that. I'm glad to see I was wrong.

Rogan is just a regular dude who chats to people. He is more knowledgeable than most even if he comes out with tosh from time to time (whop doesnt, i certainly do).
