Gorg we will have to wait until he signs a lucrative long contract before we can bag him.

I live in rural Victoria and we have had fixed wireless NBN for some time 25-50Mbps down & 5-20Mbps up. At work 3 km away we have ADSL and no date for NBN.

Doctor of music. D.Mus Sorry STMJ it was tongue in cheek.

Music?

You're probably right Django, it's not covered by Godwins law, perhaps it should be.

You said "reading between the lines" and then you made two assumptions. 1 "it looks like a classic case of manager overreach" 2 "that has required an expectations realignment process to take place." Must have been an easy English examination that year.

What they really said was "toss you off". Offer was accepted from what I heard.

Assumption :- noun 1. a thing that is accepted as true or as certain to happen, without proof. "they made certain assumptions about the market" synonyms: supposition, presupposition, presumption, premise, belief, expectation, conjecture,speculation, surmise, guess, theory, hypothesis, postulation, conclusion, deduction,inference, thought, suspicion, notion, impression, fancy; Copuchas, you read between the lines and yet you claim to not make an assumption, you cannot have it both ways, however I agree the arrogance of some here is truly breathtaking.

Didn't see her on the list of 34 past and present.

Perhaps in the coaching group.

Mustard gas and pie floaters, ah, those were the days.

EDIT:- Beware weak gutted friends - Attached is a computer graphic that depicts something almost as vile as bad umpiring! From AFL.com http://www.afl.com.au/news/2016-05-12/umpire-pannell-laughs-off-the-criticism May12th EXPERIENCED umpire Troy Pannell has found time to laugh about being in the spotlight after he paid 17 free kicks to the Western Bulldogs and just one to Adelaide last Saturday night. Keen to move on from the controversy, Pannell told K-Rock radio that laughter was the best way to cope with the scrutiny that inevitably comes an umpire's way when the free-kick count is lopsided. "For me, I tend to laugh about it a little bit. It makes it a little bit easier," Pannell said after visiting Geelong umpires on Wednesday night. "People blow up photos and put them on your desk. You really need to laugh it off." Ha ha, really funny, stuff up every week and just laugh it off.

Some posters here are very pedantic. Well done.

Yes, that reinforces your argument. From Wikipedia:- A free market is a system in which the prices for goods and services are determined by the open market and consumers, in which the laws and forces of supply and demand are free from any intervention by a government, price-setting monopoly, or other authority. It is a result of a need being, then the need being met. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Free_market Edit:- I note the ProDee removed his pointless post. This makes this post less pertinent. However I shall leave it as it does show why there is potential for problems with a true free market as I indicated earlier. I note that ProDee is not interested in a D&M possibly because facts are involved.

Surely you are not advocating for a true free market. Heroin dealers in the main street, child prostitution and exploitation no I'm sorry PD we need some controls not a free market, then it is 50 shades of grey, how much control is appropriate and how much is too much. I am anti pokies, if you think the community needs them then make them not for profit.

Would be like a sandgroper anyone saying they don't trust Victorian journos because of Barrett what journos say. Journos are in the entertainment business, they sell advertising FCS. I put more faith in what a taxi driver tells me and that is not much.

Mono, if following Melbourne doesn't kill you setting fire to a river or crashing down a dam wall have no chance. MFC first

I think that is James Hirds' dad.

No, surely we are kicking the other way.

Rusty, I had to read your post three times to realise you weren't talking about soccer. When I played it was in the backline, in those days we dished it out. But I agree our backline are getting punished. I think this is the year before we start to play our best team every week, the coaches seem to be experimenting.

Yes. I was among a group of people too drunk too drive home, some bright spark suggested that if we all sat on the roof and drove the car with our feet through the sunroof then we could not be charged with drink driving, after all it was only 20km though mountainous roads, what could go wrong? Nothing as it happens, but the car required major repairs to the roof. Is that crazy?

That would be a forward press.
