  1. And again I quote ProDee: "There needs to be a mature conversation not the shutting down of debate." Way to start a "mature conversation"... and as for that last sentence... refer to the first line of your quoted post.
  2. And further to your response to DaisyDeeciple, I find it interesting in light of your first sentence in the opening of this thread: "There needs to be a mature conversation not the shutting down of debate." DD's post was probably the most mature and level headed response in this entire thread, yet what do you attempt to do with your response?
  3. He addressed the fact that those practicing Islam in Islamic states are NOT all out to kill the infidels as you would have us believe. It addressed the fact that they are open to people of non-Islamic faith or background and it acknowledged that there are fundamentalists who would like to do us harm. It was, unlike what I've seen from you, a balanced view of Islam as practiced in the physical world of Islam. As DD suggested, don't conveniently bundle them all into one little compartment to justify your xenophobic tendencies; recognise those who would like to do us harm for what they are... fundamentalists who do not represent all of Islam... just as Fundamentalist Christians do not represent all of Christianity.
  4. Someone offers up first hand experience and you brush it off as "copy and paste"? Should we do the same with your posts ProDee; copy and paste from the Xenophobic's Handbook?
  5. No one thinks Jones may be a "mystery injury" this week so that he can celebrate his 250th on the big stage at the 'G'?
  6. Who cares what the media pundits think?? The only thing that interests me is how well we play in the next round. If anything I'd rather they (the media) keep doing what they are doing so that the club always has a point to prove... better than getting too complacent.
  7. Isn't it Round 11?
  8. gOLLy: Successfully Seeking Attention
  9. [censored] autocorrect!!! Yarra Valley
  10. Nope... some game with Yarra (no ville) Valley being one of the teams.
  11. So you don’t regard football as entertainment, but rather as a metaphor for life’s struggles?
  12. Just saw an ad on TV for Masterchef where the contestants will be cooking at the MCG and it will feature Jones as a guest judge... also the men’s and women’s teams will be involved as the guinea pigs.
  13. I would argue that the issues Sam seemed to encounter outside of his TV career, would fly in the face of "character-invention". To me Robbo is like a drunk-yet-passionate footy lover who has been dragged off the street and given his own show.
  14. They must be the same people who post the “fat jokes” aimed at Scully’s father on here.
  15. I’ve been trying to listen on the radio, but the commentary/stand-up comedy routine is doing my head in.
  16. Is there any chance Harmes may get cited for his almost sling tackle on the boundary in the last quarter (I think it was)? Hopefully not, but very hard to second guess the MRP.
  17. I have in the past suggested to Admin that it be added to the list of blocked words.
  18. Hardly the dogs' fault... Trac made a mistake and stepped in when he probably would have been better throwing a bucket of water on them... he also should have sought medical attention immediately. Hopefully he learned a valuable lesson.
  19. It certainly is... pets are for life.
  20. How Melbourne supporter-like.
