  5. hope they have a draw in a bloodbath
  6. no sweat rab......just thought ye were a wee bit naughty calling it an english empire when the scots were quite prominent in it but i do understand your sentiments, so let us not split any hairs, we can both hope the poms don't make the euro final.....they would be insufferable if they pulled it off
  7. huh? typical tassie winter weather

Devine ABSTRACT The extraordinary influence of Scots in the British Empire has long been recognised. As administrators, settlers, temporary residents, professionals, plantation owners, and as military personnel, they were strikingly prominent in North America, the Caribbean, Australasia, South Africa, India, and colonies in South-East Asia and Africa. Throughout these regions they brought to bear distinctive Scottish experience as well as particular educational, economic, cultural, and religious influences.

  9. but the scots didn't need a home government to be at the forefront of empire. by all accounts their role was substantial.
  10. yes, that's the only sensible way still have a problem judging the close ones, but no more than judging a close touch on the line etc the only hope for better judgement is better high speed, high resolution cameras in the appropriate positions the nrl and cricket camera work is better than the afl's work
  11. i'd have rivers ahead of jordan, no slur on jordan though

  13. i've seen some pretty useless stats over the years in many sports, but i think this one takes the cake

  15. july 30 i believe. but they usually get a small number after that date.....counting errors?
  16. suggest you ring club for help asap, demonsone. at least you got a few days left.
  17. you mean west aussies have noses (plural)?........well butter me on both sides
  18. i got it.......they all represent bands?
  19. cheats and handbags to play a controversial draw, with heaps of injuries and suspensions
  20. wow, players wearing ear muffs and the old centre diamond.....i've forgotten why they changed that marks adjudicated extremely softly, same for holding the man
  21. i think it was because he was too late. another bummer in front of him opted not to man the mark and ran up the field to defend agree it's a very grey area and the initial 50m was quite technical watch it here
