Is Colorado one of our Category B Rookie players? Doesn't sound like he's going to make it!

Got a good set of wheels though

Well, the thing about a black hole - its main distinguishing feature - is it's black. And the thing about space, the colour of space, your basic space colour, is black. So how are you supposed to see them?

Technically, we're seeing the accretion disk of superheated gas and material swirling around the black hole. Or something.

Put it this way, I'd consider trading him for Hayden Ballantyne at this point

First ever image of a black hole's event horizon. I've been waiting all week for this. Slightly underwhelmed at first, but it's growing on me.

For our AFLW squad?

Ahaha what?

 

[Dazzler9]

lol. The irony is giving me a nosebleed.

These women getting abortions just need to be better Christians, just like the lawmaker who brought it in, who has been married 5 times, but that's different.

Just to carry me around

kane249 we’ve got another one.

Discussion around the difference in drafting between WA clubs, and the Freo board were by and large saying that the Eagles have had the far better drafting lately. Somebody pointed out how brief our lean periods are, and how quickly we top up the list instead of going on seasons long rebuilds.

The response from a fellow Freo fan?

Helps that they get to win 2 derbies a year. Take that away from them and the goalposts change a bit

Get to. Get. Gorgeous.

looks Like Folau is getting the sack. The AFL and GWS avoided a huge embarrassment.

Pretty ballsy from the wallabies to sack him months away from a World Cup.

Australia is no longer the land of the free and the home of the brave.

Speaking of which, Julian Assange has been arrested in the UK.

Like a moth to a flame....

From Fox Sports
In a joint statement by Rugby Australia boss Raelene Castle and NSW Rugby Union’s Andrew Hore, the duo said that Folau’s actions didn’t represent the values of rugby and therefore had left them no choice but to terminate his four-year-deal.
Same article,
Folau’s pending axing comes less than a week after he became Super Rugby’s greatest tryscorer by scoring his 60th Waratahs try against the Blues.
and
“He’s arguably one of the best players in the world.”
Hmm....

Perhaps he would’ve been better off going the accepted anti White $narrative$ ala A Goodes (whilst staging for frees) or waleed aly and his quote “middle aged white men” comment re Ed....
As for Rugby Australia boss Raelene Castle and Folau’s stance on homosexuality, maybe that’s best summed up by Mel, “you got a dog in this fight?”

 

[HoneyBadger35]

Sucked in Folau. Nice to see assholes who use their platform to spew horseshit actually cop some repercussions once in a while.

Get Egg Boy on the case while we’re at it.

 

[Dazzler9]

Folau is a bigot. Good riddance. I'm sure he'll find a safe space back in the NRL.

Somehow I don’t think Egg Boy would escape with just a slap or two were he try the same trick on Folau......

Secondly Egg Boy assualted a Senator.., Fraser Anning..are you advocating assualting members of parliament or just assaults in general..??

I’m quite sure Folau does not require a “safe space”..

Or perhaps, and bear with me here because this is a novel idea, Folau should just not be an absolute campaigner and he'd still be playing rugby

..$Values$.. v “one greatest players in the world”

Would the AFL have been better of without
Gary Ablett Snr
Wayne Carey
Ben Cousins ???

Cousins got sacked.
Carey got driven out of his club.
Ablett...not sure what he did wrong during his playing days to be fair.

Eh, they weren't going to win it anyway.

If you mean just keeping his mouth shut, thats a fair question, with no easy answer... def make things easier but as the saying goes

“The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing”

Classic whataboutism, by the way

Thankfully good men did something, and sacked Folau.

Frankly his inclusion of drunks and drug users in the hell bound was probably what did it. Condemned a fair few of his team mates there.
