  1. This is just outright wrong. World War I, many will concede was a waste of Australian lives, which were used as a distraction for the British. WW2 however, is a different story. The intelligence suggested that the Japanese were trying to take the whole pacific, and some research will show the British were happy to let them do so and deal with it after Europe was won. Many Australians that died did so to prevent the war ever reaching our shores. There were Japanese subs in our harbors, to say there was no threat to Australian territory is ignorant and shows how little you know about which you speak. Despite you're obvious distaste for the reason these soldiers were asked to enlist, surely you can respect that they did it because they thought it was their duty to their country. Attitudes like yours to ANZAC day are typical of a younger generation from a peaceful time who has never really seen their home threatened
  2. ANZAC day to me isn't about the "glorification of war" It is about the men and women who gave their lives for right or wrong because they felt a sense of duty to their country. To me "lest we forget" is about remembering the dead for the lives they sacrificied, not the reason for which they sacrificed them. To others like yourself it's about remembering the futility of the whole thing and not forgetting so we don't make the mistake of sacrificing the lives of so many Australians again.
  3. I get the feeling we were a little lethargic there. Just a step slower to the contest than we were in the first and it showed. Hopefully we can come out after the break and put them away once and for all.
  4. That Viney tackle looked more like a suplex. This kid is it folks.
  5. I love how Salem just looks like he has all the time in the world ball in hand.
  6. Unfortunately it's a very small ground so unless we are on a fast break, the forward line is just too crowded to reliably hit open targets.
  7. Great use of the body! little bump and another set show for Hulk
  8. Jesse marks, GWS player follows up with a tackle, 50 meters and jesse has a shot from 30 out
  9. Another midfield clearance to Kent in the forward 50, who sprays it off to the left
  10. I reckon we'll see the Melbourne boys get right into him round 12, or maybe he'll sit out with injury.
  11. Exactly. We're all sitting here arguing over the events of a game where neither team was Melbourne. When we play Geelong I would hope our players don't sledge Mitch for his illness, until then could not give a stuff.
  12. Podcast is an audio or video serial, anywhere from 15 minutes to 4 hours. Think like a radio show, sometimes on video. Looking forward to it. Been needing something new to listen to on a run.
