    Why Carlton have been promising so much yet delivering so little for so long.

    Oh yeah, don't get me wrong, I'm definitely not cheering for any Blues renaissance. They're our eternal enemy, and I would gain little satisfaction from any return to dominance they might have. If they're up against the Dockers in September, for example, I (and undoubtedly all of Richmond) am...

    Why Carlton have been promising so much yet delivering so little for so long.

    Agree. It's very easy to take potshots at a club when they're seemingly down, but the similarities with our plight at Richmond circa 2016 are certainly there. A hell of a lot of changes went on behind the scenes at Tigerland after that disastrous 2016 season (a read of Konrad Marshall's book...

    Europe War in Ukraine - Thread 5 - thread rules updated

    Maybe the Baroness actually is anti-Russia after all? All of her pro-Putin bollocks has actually been her sly way of bringing the nation down?

    Looking at the number of shoes he's carrying, he's grown two feet over summer!! 🙄

    Religion Bondi shooting - 16 confirmed dead at Jewish event

    If they want to be. They don't have to be - they're adults with choices of who and what they follow.

    Europe War in Ukraine - Thread 5 - thread rules updated

    If Ukraine somehow survive this outrageous invasion and return to being a free, autonomous nation, they are going to be massive players on the world stage when it comes to providing other client nations with drone technology and IP.

    Rudest/Nicest player you've met?

    Heard similar things about Crackers Keenan back in his heyday. My old man was great mates with former North legend Laurie "Twinkletoes" Dwyer - one of the most lovely blokes you'd ever meet. Had time for everyone, and showed interest and cared for anyone who passed through his orbit. Back in...

    Religion Bondi shooting - 16 confirmed dead at Jewish event

    I think the perhaps quickest way to reduce antisemitism, islamophobia and bigotry/racism in general, is to ban all over-16's from social media.

    Training Pre-season 2026

    Forward line too small. I'd go with Armstrong over Green on the I/C. I think you've got to assume that Lynchy might get hurt nowadays too, and if he doesn't it's just a bonus. Ditto for Meatball.

    Europe Backdrop to the war in Ukraine

    The Soviet Union in December 1979 had direct supply lines into Afghanistan. At that stage both Kazakhstan and Turkmenistan were consumed by the USSR, as were other Afghan nearby neighbours Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan and Uzbekistan. Of course, the mujahedeen made great sport picking of off those...

    Europe Backdrop to the war in Ukraine

    There is no need now, nor has there ever been any need, to put "boots on the ground". Ukraine have an adequate fighting force and a more-then-adequate will to defend themselves. What they do need, and should have been supplied with all along, is sufficient firepower and military intelligence to...

    Rudest/Nicest player you've met?

    That's great your sister was able to provide a bit of a clinic for those Hawks blokes. Seems to have significantly helped them with their goal-kicking 🤣.
