I'm not going to waste my time or yours justifying my argument. The "yes" campaign will almost certainly win. It is against my better judgement to back it but I will embrace the result. I hope the small percentage of homosexuals who benefit from it enjoy it. I hope the Marxists and antifa's trip over on their next cause.

Can't read the drop of the ball. Occasionally flukes it, a broken clock is right twice a day. Bust.

I realise the argument is imperfect. I don't believe there is a perfect solution. As for evidence, I can link to any number of articles reporting to show a benefit of upbringing because of a mother and a father. You could link to any number (just go to the ABC) of articles reporting to show there is no difference. We live in a world where news, science and statistics are published to get web traffic, likes and google preferencing. I'll go with my gut feeling and biology on this.

Logic may lay in the eye of the beholder. I think children should have the right to a mother and a father. This is not always possible but it is preferable. understand ss couples and single people can adopt at the moment so marriage is not the be all and end all to parenting children. By keeping traditional marriage we give more children the opportunity to have a mother and father and I believe that is for the greater good. For me marriage was about wanting to start my own family. For ss couples their motive may be equality. I can understand that line of thinking but I believe a child's right to a mother and father like nature intended should outweigh the rights of a couple fighting for what they believe is their right on paper.

I thought the same thing when I first read about Bernard's plan. I'm pretty sure the difference is the robocalls went to listed landline numbers but the "yes" SMS went to mobiles that were unlisted and on the do not call register. I got the SMS and couldn't care less. I am not so flakey that a random SMS would influence or infuriate me. The official line for the "yes" campaign is they used a random number generator to send out the SMS but anybody in the know will tell you that it is not cost effective to randomly generate numbers after the 04 . There are simply too many combinations not in use. So there is a suspicion they used a list that may have been obtained surreptitiously.

2 x A grade midfielders. Hope everybody else plays a role on the day.

Lever wants to come and Watts won't leave. Everyone wants to be at Melbourne.

That seems odd to me. But the fact Stringers ex says multiple girls sent her texts makes me think there is more to it. It just makes no sense.

I took my daughter to the GF parade at the MCG park yesterday. Without a word of a lie there was a Tigers tent already selling 2018 memberships.

Without having seen a lot of him you make a good case. What are his foot skills like?

Has a rare sense of knowing where the goals are. When he throws it on his boot it almost always goes through.

My heart says I would hate to lose either of them. Every heart beats true. My head says if true we will replace them with forwards who apply forward line tackling pressure.

How come Robbie Flower could always get to the drop of the ball and not be pushed out of the way? It is more than a strength issue.

Juice spilled some of the easiest marks I've ever seen but at least he could get to the drop of the ball and be in a position to take them. i'm yet to see any evidence that weid can read the flight of the ball. it get's excused on demonland as bad kicking but I can assure you juice wasn't getting it on a silver platter

Probably because Oliver was handballing it to them all the time. Can't believe how poorly he polled.

The falcons are getting much more of a showing than the demons.

The AFL even hate ex-Melbourne players.

I'm only watching this rubbish because I backed him at 50-1 for most votes melbourne. Seems the umps don't like him much.

Lever worst on ground. Lowers his trade value and then he can come back like Cotchin and play well next time (with us).

A lot of talk about precedence in this thread without mentioning the obvious one. Barry Hall. That is normal rules don't apply for big name players if there is a risk they could miss the GF.

It could also be type of player. The stars of TAC and SANFL that don't win their own ball struggle at AFL level.

Let me make this a bit easier for you to understand. general election - multiple issues and promises. Unfortunately, the elected party almost always fails to deliver on what they promised. postal vote - single issue outside of election. Of course the details relevant to the single issue should be transperant.

I have no concern about his strength or conditioning. They will improve over time. It doesn't explain why the ball flies over his head every time. He simply can't read the play. We took a punt on a player who looked great in the under 14's but was injured through most of his maturing years.

I'd take a late second round pick for weid.

1) A fair go for children is the ultimate aim and I believe a mother and father are the best way to provide that. Undderstand that doesn't always work out and it isn't always perfect but it is preferable. 2) Statistics show there are almost certainly gay footballers. There are also drug users, wife beaters and victims of domestic violence (statistically more likely if they are gay). The AFL have a responsibility to look after their players. They should not be recommending how people vote. In doing so they will turn more people off the yes vote than they will encourage. 3) A ridiculous argument. I vote at every election based on the party with the platform I prefer most. Each party has a plethora of issues they support and they are elected to legislate them. This is a single issue postal vote where we are not being shown the consequences of one side of the argument.
