  1. I love Supergrass.
  2. It was more complicated than that. The outcome of that case was based on the alleged offender's subjective belief about the existence of the woman's consent. The law has since been changed; the test of the alleged offender's belief is now an objective test.

    Olympic match Austalia 2 - Argentina 0. Good match. Argentina had a player sent off just before half time.
  4. I don't have a good feeling about this match. ?
  5. So eloquently put. Well said sir!!
  6. The Demons have traditionally got off to slow starts this season. Didn't happen v Hawks. Drop off appeared to happen when the side appeared too comfortable with a reasonable lead.
  7. Incredibly Sportsbet has Melbourne $1.83 Bulldogs $2.01. Go figure?
  8. The result was described as a massive upset. Was anyone here really surprised? I wasn't.
  9. I'm hoping WC and GWS win today to overtake Richmond.
  10. True, but I'd prefer they keep Richmond out of the 8 so (with great reluctance) I hope they beat Norf.
  11. The only upside* was that we couldn't go to the match. (I had a ticket.) It was bad enough watching it on TV. I'm probably repeating what others have said, but my observations are: Lack of intensity. Players laughing/joking as though they thought "don't worry, we've got this if we try". Agree about poor old #7. Clueless player. Opposition players know that he'll continually try to take on the tackler. And poor skills/decision making. Players fumbling/falling over. Repeated kicking to a nest of hawks (pun intended) in our forward line. Abysmal kicking for goal. Dodgy umpiring ... particularly the hawks getting frees when they simply barged into tackles head first. Return to the 'bad old days' of other sides getting on streaks where they kick 4 or more goals in a row. Dr D ... is he for real? Lucky not to lose the match. I won money betting on Hawthorn. (For some reason, Sportsbet paid out a reduced amount ... not sure why.) Most players played poorly. Surely they can't play that badly two weeks in a row??? *Well, other than not actually losing.
  12. I wonder what it feels like to be certain that your team will win.
  13. Boyd should have got the medal.
  14. Saints v Port ... terrible standard. Steel is the latter day Lenny Hayes. (Both related to the Get Smart character Simon the Likeable.)
  15. Newman also suffered a terrible kidney injury.
  16. I'm waiting for a HTB decision against #20 for Brisbane so the commentators can say he had "prior opportunity". (Soz, should have given dad joke alert.)
  17. Does Reiwoldt ever stop whinging?
  18. Indeed. Even if Demons finish top 2, having regard to covid there is absolutely no certainty of the first final being played in Melbourne. Don't know that I could bring myself to barrack for the Tigers ... Cotchin/Hardwick/Reiwoldt/Lynch ...
  19. Abysmal performance by Freo. So annoying that they lost by so much that Jee-long gained heaps of percentage and have overtaken us.
  20. I was Level 2 MCC N39 row C. I was rather looking forward to attending.
  21. Hey ... don't bother watching. Switch over to Q+A ... my daughter's in the audience!!! (Only 15 in the audience.)
  22. My daughter and I are Supernerd's greatest fans.
  23. Good win by Norf at Boo Stadium. If I hear anyone mention Shinboner spirit I'll spew !!! Stephenson was clear BOG.
  24. Stephenson's playing an awesome match for Norf. What's wrong with Kelly for WC? Doesn't look interested.
