Women, know your limits. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LS37SNYjg8w

Until we decide we have done enough and just stop like we did last week.

Imagine where womens rights would be if they didn't take a stand. Boy i miss those days. That's a joke, just in case you didn't know.

If only it was that simple!

Where has this confident kid gone? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wjuXc1SM-l8

I agree with most of this, and i hope in doing so I do not get called a racist in the meantime. As i have said before I can not being to understand what happened in the past and I cannot being to understand what living with that past behind your people is like. The leadership post by LG http://demonland.com/forums/index.php?/topic/38489-adam-goodes/page-21#entry1101462 will only work if everyone gets behind it, government and indigenous communities. Surely there has been things of this nature tried in the past.

Thanks for taking the time to answer me, instead of just assuming the worst in people. I will peruse Geoffrey Blainey's works. Yeah that was an anger post, I should have stopped and not stereotyped as I did.

Briefly, then i awoke.

WTF!? Man she has changed.

I try my best. I heard this a while back, I think on rabbit proof fence. Sorry if it offended and if it did explain why it did so I can understand your outrage. Or was it because I wrote THEY in capitals? Clearly I'm one of these bigots and short minded people that you and others are all so horrified by. I never knew i was that bad. Since my first outrageous post I have tried to understand but cannot because all you naysayers seem to do is tell me how wrong I am without providing the why except for your own stuck up look down at me opinion. Numerous times I asked for an answer to a post for understanding on my part and not one of you helped me see past my bigotry, so how as a nation do we do that if we cant do it on a tiny little forum? If it is left up to the bigot, why would they/I bother? My parents are quite racist and i cannot help that I was brought up that way, all I can do is take in the fact of what I am and when someone explains things to me in a level headed way it gets me thinking differently, but if i ask questions and try to understand i would prefer to be responded to with a little more than being called a troll.

We should get Pia Miller to do all the PR stuff

I always thought that half blooded Aborigines were not readily accepted by full-blood society, that they considered them inferior, wonder how THEY feel about Goodes representing them.

So club equality is not being pursued?

I reckon it would be worth a look at least, I see more that they have outgrown the facilities. We have a smarter board that will not take it just because it is there.

Yeah the dance before the GF could be a great thing, need to be present players though, so people can relate to them. If they are from a community i think there will be less interest, I don't agree with it but that is how it will be IMO. The next question is, do you include other races in it?

I also have been doing a lot of reading on the plight the Indigenous people of Australia faced when the white man first came to this country and the atrocities thereafter. I have also read a lot about what the government has tried to do for them over the years as well to try to get them to be a better functioning community. While I cannot begin to understand what they feel, I still stand by my remarks that many are still waiting for the white man to fix things for them and again I cannot understand why that is. Is it hate for the white man, fear, no self belief? What is holding them back from becoming the people they dream to be?

Pretty sure calling my post simplistic drivel is a personal attack. But whatever, i will get over it and answer questions instead of using it to avoid them.

I agree with that, he had an assignment designated to him in the WB game, the PA game he was made to think too much.

I thought Fitzy was ok, he didn't really have a role to play, what could he do?

I apologize for the personal attack just fired up from my writing being called simplistic drivel.

Ahhh, i like to call them the numb years.

Are you for real, answer the bloody question moron. Are you denying that these things occur? Europeans came to this country and colonized it, then they tried to civilize the locals and when that didn't work they butchered and raped the locals, stole their children and were just plain old a-holes. Many years have passed, error of ways seen and attempted "fixes" put in place, most of which fail miserably because of both sides inability to move on and look for a real resolution instead of throwing money at the situation. Yes those horrible things happened but constantly using them as a weapon for hate is not helping anyone.

So we should just let them drink and bash each other to death then? We cannot change what many before us did, whether we believe it right or wrong. Have you been to the NT lately? You cannot help those who do not wish to be helped. Bigotry is bred on both sides. Many stand with their hand out waiting for the white fella to give them something, and if you do what do they do with it? How do you change the thinking on their side too not just whiteys?

43% of the time in front!!??? Man we have to learn to hold those leads!

It would be great, not sure how they could do it, getting a large group of players from different clubs may be too difficult. I always wanted us to have something like the NZ Huka to intimidate other teams before the game. That [censored] is scary!
