    Opinion AUSTRALIAN Politics: Adelaide Board Discussion Part 6

    Say what you want about Pyne, but his comment was completely on point. It's pretty much just you and the clown show over at Sky News after dark that think Abbott was anything other than a complete and utter failure as PM

    Opinion AUSTRALIAN Politics: Adelaide Board Discussion Part 6

    I think I've mentioned this before, but I know someone who ran for Liberal in the state election back when Marshall was elected and he told me that Christopher Pyne once candidly told him that Tony Abbott went from being one of the greatest opposition leaders that he'd ever seen to becoming the...

    Opinion INTERNATIONAL Politics: Adelaide Board Discussion Part 6

    My wife and I spent nearly two months there about a month ago and had zero issues. We went to LA, San Francisco, San Diego, Vegas, Philly, Pittsburgh, New York, Washington, Baltimore and Boston and walked around like we were in Adelaide and felt completely safe the whole time. We got the subway...

    Opinion INTERNATIONAL Politics: Adelaide Board Discussion Part 6

    Yeah, but it's a anonymous forum there's no real way or tying this stuff back though. It's also an AFL football forum, it wouldn't even be on their radar as an avenue for political expression.

    Opinion INTERNATIONAL Politics: Adelaide Board Discussion Part 6

    We had to list all of our social media accounts on our ESTA application. I didn't really mind because my wife and I don't really put political stuff on our social media accounts. They didn't ask to see our phones or anything like that.

    Opinion INTERNATIONAL Politics: Adelaide Board Discussion Part 6

    You might be right that it might have been a facial scan. It wasn't so much the questions being asked, but more the tone of how they were asked, maybe we just struck a customs officer having a bad day. It wasn't a deal breaker or anything, we both loved it over there and would go back...

    Opinion INTERNATIONAL Politics: Adelaide Board Discussion Part 6

    I recently just came back from spending almost 2 months over there. My wife and I were essentially interrogated at LAX for about 15 minutes before being allowed in to the country. We were asked for every location we were staying, what our plans were, the guy wanted to see copies of our plane...

    That's because the right want the ability to hate on certain minority groups while making others sacrosanct. The reality is that things don't work that way.

    Crows Chat That 'Doesnt Deserve Its Own Thread' Thread part 2

    Maybe I am the odd one, but I am not getting the massive hate about the "wildcard" finals. We complain all year about the draw not being fair and teams being impacted by having a tougher draw. At least with a system like this in place it offers some degree of equalisation. If you go back and...

    Opinion AUSTRALIAN Politics: Adelaide Board Discussion Part 6

    Exactly Sussan Ley was publicly pushing to get Parliament back before Christmas to urgently pass laws over this issue, but now the LNP are critical and claiming that Labor are trying to rush things through. We've gone from the LNP being anti 18c and wanting it abolished to suddenly being...

    Opinion AUSTRALIAN Politics: Adelaide Board Discussion Part 6

    I think it comes down to cost and what it will actually achieve versus action that could be taken immediately. I'm all for them if they achieve something. However, we had no Royal Commission after Port Arthur nor after the Lindt siege so it's hard to tell whether this will actually achieve...

    Opinion New AFC HQ (Part 2): Dale dug a hole

    How on earth is it unrealistic? We'd potentially be looking at the identical terms as Port, there's absolutely zero justiciation for us to paying anything more than they are for the same agreement. The fact that we're currently paying 450k a season while Port are paying $0 is already...

    Opinion New AFC HQ (Part 2): Dale dug a hole

    Why wouldn't we be? If the club wants to stay in the SANFL post 2028 and wants to use Thebarton then our deal should be identical to Port's. There's absolutely no justification at all for us to be paying a cent more than Port for the same deal from 2029. Any Chairman or CEO that would sign...

    Opinion New AFC HQ (Part 2): Dale dug a hole

    I think there's zero chance of that until 2029 at the earliest. We signed a 15 year agreement which goes through to the end of 2028, I imagine that hell would have to freeze over before the SANFL clubs will agree to lose the extra home game they get a season while that agreement is still in...

    Sorry the photo didn't work, I've fixed it. Definitely meant MDS, there's at least two posters here who suffer from it.
