    2026 Giro d'Italia

    Jonas put 1 min into everyone other than Gall last night. Stages 9, 14, 16, 19 & 20 all have mountain top finishes. The final climb on stage 19 isn't big enough to establish major time gaps, but there's plenty of scope for Jonas flying solo on the preceding climb and opening up a huge gap...

    Opinion INTERNATIONAL Politics: Adelaide Board Discussion Part 6

    It's interesting that AI came up with that particular argument. The 22nd is pretty definitive about a 2 termer not being eligible for re-election again. However, there is an argument that succeeding to the office, rather than being elected to the office, might not breach the terms of the 22nd...

    Opinion INTERNATIONAL Politics: Adelaide Board Discussion Part 6

    It's clearly banned in the constitution. The 12th Amendment to the US Constitution states that "no person constitutionally inelgible to the office of President shall be eligible to that of Vice-President." The 22nd Amendment bars anyone who has already been elected President twice from being...

    Supercars JUB JUB Supercars thread

    I don't disagree with that. The choice to ship the cars to NZ, rather than flying them over, creates a 2 month hole in the calendar. Having a whole month between Symmons Plains & Hidden Valley, on the back of the NZ shipping gap, is just bizarre. I get that it's a long trip, for the drivers...

    Opinion INTERNATIONAL Politics: Adelaide Board Discussion Part 6

    Trump can't run as VP. It's banned in the constitution. This has been floated a number of times. It's wrong every single time it's brought up.

    Opinion AUSTRALIAN Politics: Adelaide Board Discussion Part 6

    From memory it was one down in the southern suburbs, possibly Noarlunga. Was empty for a good 6 months, while fully staffed, before they finally brought in the patients - just like Yes Minister! A long time ago, so excuse my lack of remembered details.

    It also gives us an extra round... so, swings & roundabouts.

    The gap between NZ and Symmons Plains is understandable, given the need to ship the cars across the Tasman. The month gap between Symmons Plains & Darwin is less excusable.

    Opinion Non-Crows AFL 14: Voss gone, who's next?

    Conversely, an experienced senior coach would be better equipped for dealing with those deeper issues within the club. Ross Lyon would be an ideal candidate, given his predilection for taking total control of everything. Unfortunately for Carlton, Lyon is already gainfully employed at St Kilda.

    2026 Giro d'Italia

    Tomorrow night's stage is a summit finish, on top of Blockhaus (13.6km @ 8.4% avg gradient). Reckon that will be enough?

    Opinion Non-Crows AFL 14: Voss gone, who's next?

    Interesting question, whether they should choose someone with previous experience as a senior coach, or a current assistant coach without previous experience? They've tried both options in the past, without success. Pagan, Malthouse and Voss all had previous experience; Teague, Bolton, Ratten...

    He's been carrying a back injury since the pre-season games. Hasn't looked right at any stage so far this season.

    Opinion Non-Crows AFL 14: Voss gone, who's next?

    There was an acceptance that we needed to do a complete rebuild, and that we wouldn't be playing finals for several years. The rebuild started at the end of 2019, coinciding with the appointment of Nicks. Nicks was the first AFC coach to have to do a full ground-up rebuild, and was thus not...

    The ideal place to relocate St Kilda is half-way between Melbourne and Launceston.
