  1. "there is no such thing as tanking (whilst i am in the country)" - dimwit
  2. he played well at carlton. the rest consisted of too much crap. same with judd
  3. one does wonder why they have an integrity unit window dressing?
  4. meanwhile..................Siberian cold front sweeps across Europe, bringing record low temperatures shhhhh........................
  5. *melanotin melatonin is used for sleep disorders sorry for being [censored] - lol
  6. they are trying (maliciously) to somehow just link it (social damage) to afl club owned pokies. ...big fat LOL number of mentions in press and repeated on radio. media happy to just bait the afl rather than any attempt at rational analysis
  7. maybe not on the ability, but maybe on the desire. when you add up all the devils some people reach a tipping point. like a rotting apple
  8. it will be strange indeed if the afl ever stop clubs owning pokies (only to be sold to someone else) if they don't at the same time sever all support for and acceptance of money from the (growing) sports gambling industry for the latter they could actually have some impact but on the former they would just transfer it to some other owner i don't gamble nor support the gambling industry but i don't see how divesting of poker machines is any more than plain old window dressing
  9. and don't forget money from the other devils - sports betting industry and one-armed bandits
  10. maybe, but some of the bom's apparent handling of climate change practices would seem to justify closer scrutiny or dare i say a little skepticism. no harm in applying a little skepticism to BOTH sides of the divide, eh?
  11. i can't remember. i was quite younger than him and he was a regular visitor to a house in st. kilda road. yes, there were (stand-alone) houses in st. kilda road then.
  12. it doesn't have to be an overt, conscious, conspiratorial thing. ht. self preservation is a wonderful motivator look on the flip side, imagine if one were a climate cynic in the bom. do you think their career prospects were rosy or threatened? just my devil's advocate 2c
  13. photographic memory does not a genius make incidentally ht, i used to know barry reasonably well in his early quiz days. not a bad bloke, smart but no genius
  14. cats to go into jlt1 without the 3 amigos
  15. no helmet will ever totally prevent concussion but surely that is not the question hard helmets (a'la nfl) would totally change the nature of the game so lets forget that option the most we could expect from soft helmets is a REDUCTION in the risk and/or severity of concussion and some new soft helmet technologies coming on the market look promising in at least providing some hope they might reduce the severity of concussions in some cases zero concussions is not a realistic option in a fast contact sport
  16. this doesn't compute. no true genius would ever become a politician. it would be oxymoronic
  17. well, as long as you've got your pecker you'll survive have you tried testosterone supplements?
  18. half an hour before 1st test in seth efrica and the crowd has swelled to about 120 (according to cricinfo)
  19. you are what you think you are, nut, apparently btw have you found your gonads yet
