  1. Nearly 400,000 deliveries per month through his software in something like 60 countries with massive growth predicted in next year. He's created a thriving business worth $200mill through hard work and the right IT development. All entrepreneurs start small, often with low margins. But i beg to differ that it is based on fluke and luck, or that they are the why he got to this point.
  2. Really? How does a person "fluke" a business valued at about $200 mill? Wouldn't have anything to do with his hard work, IT nous, intelligence and business skills by chance? Pretty successful bloke at the age of 33. The company is picking up good contracts overseas, so the next 12 months will be interesting to watch. Good on him.
  3. Actually, his name is Taylor. Tex is his nickname
  4. Tex is all for easier player movement and more money for the players, just not when it goes against his club. Funny that....
  5. Boost to our ruck stocks? Who wants a ready made 204cm 112kg ruck?
  6. More suited to trade/draft board, but could this guy be support for Max in the absence of Spencil? Who wants a ready made 204cm 112kg ruck?
  7. You need to stop writing comments to the age willmoy!
  8. Tex Walker is such a hypocrite. Claims in AFL article that Gibbs has taken a pay cut to come home rather than an increase like Lever. Hey Tex, helps if you don't insult an 21 yo AA squad member by offering $350k off the bat. Also digs at Lever and Cameron: "Walker did not waste his latest chance to have a none-too-subtle dig at Lever and possibly also Cameron. "Sam Gibson and Bryce Gibbs, they don't only bring talent; they bring hard work, leadership and (are) great characters," Walker said. "That's what we like to get at our football club. I rate people with leadership and character." Haha! Like a character that gets pizzed watching the footy when dropped like you in your youth?
  9. Different reason, but weren't Wagner and Hunt originally put on the banner not because of merit? Could also be argued the Watts didn't deserve a spot. Or that Daisy isn't as good a player in her own right as the others. I don't think Nev should get on only because he's Aboriginal, I believe he should be there on playing merit (tick) and for his support of players coming from indigenous backgrounds (tick). If it's only on merit over the previous season I'd argue about 5 currently on the banner should be removed. Surely there is room for more than playing merit as selection criteria.
  10. Matt Ling, if still there at our pick
  11. Remove Jack. Nine remain. We are Ninethbourne
  12. Online videos of his highlights illustrate very poor kicking, which is a worry
  13. Very dignified retirement. Big respect Col. Looking forward to his coaching career successes
  14. Adelaide think they are very close to a flag in 2018 or 19. That's why they paid 2 x 1st rounders for Gibbs. An A grade mid arguably could get them there. Most coaches and FDs in that frame of mind don't think more than 12 months ahead. Calton are looking longer term, so those picks are gold for Bolton. Still think we did remarkably well with Lever
  15. Has to be a locker reserved there for a French F/S
  16. 'The Windy Weapon' although that sounds like bbo's new year resolution
