Their smalls weren't as conspicuously good as they were against Port but, as a unit, they terrorised our defence.

Ummm, thanks.

Thanks for the stats. And just to confirm. Oliver was on the wing rather than inside mid for all his 1st year games right? There's things for Tsatas to work on sure and our current AFL mid set up is working very well. Hence why Tsatas is learning in the VFL - nothing wrong with that. But this...

Interesting to know that half of our board would have desisted Clayton Oliver after his first season. Tsatas is 19 and has the second best hands in the comp. He's also quick. He'll be a top 5 player in the comp and half of our supporters want him shipped off for a 4th rounder.

Sam Kerr. But you have a point though. Some comments hit a nerve. Some don't.

Do you honestly believe that anybody can predict the future? Two players (say Caddy and Tsatas) becoming genuine stars will transform the team. Of course, they're just as likely to be injury prone and/or mediocre but that's the vagaries of footy.

How? Whilst most people were onboard with most of these players coming, none of them believed they would move the needle enough to ensure a finals spot - let alone put us in top 4 contention. But two things. 1) We had lots in the salary cap (and still do) and none of them cost us any draft...

Bombers haven't played a prelim in 20 years. We should get 4 PP.

For every one AFL listed player there's 1000 footy players who will never get a cent from kicking the footy around - but they still run the risk of concussions (and any real or imagined link with CTE). I guess "duty of care" and "science" only matter when there are deep pockets involved.

This is purely about retribution. Something bad happens so someone else must suffer irrespective of whether they had ill intent or that their suffering could incentivise any improvement on other people's future behaviour. Appalling. But what you expect now.

I guess: a) correlation does = causation; and b) anecdotes do = data.

The self awareness of this post is off the charts.

Epistemology. If a news source is giving you opinions dressed up as fact (eg "an expert says so") then that news source is propaganda. OTOH, if it gives direct observations (whether it's by a journalist or someone the journalist is asking) then that news source is worthwhile. The same goes for...

??? So now you're worried about uncorroborated claims! That's some world-class self-awareness you have there.

If the police leaked it it's because they know the case is nonsense. The woman went to a compensation lawyer before she went to the police. Not to mention the obvious impossibility of Lehrmann managing the second time without a condom. The AG has told the prosecutors that they must prosecute...

Mofra, admit it. Just like your mate you also believed the term "trickle down economics" was created by right wing economists didn't you? Zero independent thought.

Bizarre comment. As though governments don't constantly look for the most tenuous excuses to spend money and grant themselves power.

There's no such thing as aggregate demand so there's nothing to supplement. If you can provide me an example of a country with strong property rights, hard money and low taxes that is an economic basket case feel free to do so. Not sure what you mean by authoritarianism. Perhaps you're...

Every rich country in the real world makes it cheap to invest in capital goods (and has done so for a long period) whereas poor countries have made it expensive. There are no "real world" examples of left-wing economic theories working. But thanks for telling me to do "critical analysis". Hang...

Lots of reasons. For one, owner operated businesses can call their earnings a wage or a profit. Similarly, are corporate bonuses paid to higher ups “wages” or “profits”? There are three types of income in economics (as opposed to accounting). Profits – income earned by successfully predicting...

That is the dumbest graph I've seen in my whole life. Figures it comes from the Australian Institute. Inasmuch as "corporate profits" are a measurable thing, they are typically reinvested into more capital goods (either by the company or the shareholders reinvesting their dividends). This...

Your comment is completely bizarre. The people who are responsible for the debt are the ones that should pay. What we need is to confiscate the assets of all the people who supported the lockdowns starting with those most responsible first and working our way down until the whole debt is paid...

Warner kept him out really. If they wanted Renshaw - which was understandable - he should have opened.

Don't know about Adelaide but conspiracy theorists are up about 100-0 over the last three years.

Astonishing. Every single time someone has piped up and called out the lunacy of our hate on for coal in the past 30 years they've been accused of being an evil fiend in the pay of big coal/oil. But now, apparently, the hydrocarbon industry hasn't spent so much as a red cent to lobby on their...

Every attempt to make sense of your previous claims requires you to come up with more bizarre ones. Now you need to claim that government policy has zero impact on investment decisions.

That's my point. Your argument is internally inconsistent. You're trying to claim: 1) coal generators can't make money right now because electricity prices are too low so that, and that alone, is why they're being shut down right now. 2) there hasn't been anywhere near enough investment in...

The government engaging in central planning by having renewable energy targets and constantly threatening existing coal investments = great because it's the free market at its finest. The government building coal power plants = bad because that's communism. Whilst I certainly prefer private...

It really was.

Thanks. I use observations that are common knowledge or sourced and then explain the syllogism in a way that it's easy to understand. If I can't explain it myself in my own words I will never argue for it.
