I thought I would start a thread for the incoming expansion team. I was a mad Norths fan growing up and though I adopted the Bulldogs as my team when the Bears were expelled (**** Manly) really haven't followed the NRL closely since. This has me excited though.
I just hope that they have a...
In the NFL the numbers of club champions are retired after the player retires. Which numbers from your club would be retired if this was practiced in the AFL? For Essendon 5 (Hird), 10 (Coleman) and 31 (Fletcher).
5 Aussie bands from a similar era. How would you rank them?
Icehouse
Australian Crawl
Dragon
Men at Work
Cold Chisel
I've created a poll where you can vote for 3 of these bands so we can get an accumulative total. I voted Icehouse, Dragon and Cold Chisel.
Have these holidays done their dash in a society where less people adhere to Christianity anymore and other religions are growing? Should they be replaced with more inclusive-themed holidays?
Thought it might be good to keep a list of off season moves. Both Penrith and Parra are losing a few.
To kick off my Bulldogs are getting Villame Kikau (Penrith) (Load blown!), Reed Mahony (Parra) and Ryan Sutton (Canberra),
Please add.
Would anyone know where I can find a list of players who started at a club, joined another club then returned to their original club? Gary Ablett Jr and Chris Heffernan are two I can think of. Anyone else?
I'm being courted by this group at the moment.

Their idea is to buy an investment property using your super. Hopefully this then increases in value over the years. So, for example, if you bought a property for $400k hopefully by the time you retire...
I was watching a movie the other day and one of the characters called Led Zepplin "my I don't get it band". So who would be your "I don't get it" band. This is not from a genre you don't like. It's a band from a genre you usually do like but just don't get the appeal of this particular band...
Apparently NSW, Victoria and Tasmania do not have a public holiday next Monday after ANZAC Day, while the other states do. Surely the states would align for this and either all have the day off or all not. I don't think it should be a public holiday. It is a day of commemoration and should only...
Anyone else like me have a narcissist in their life and any tips on how to deal with them? A friend who knows the situation has been sending me these which perfectly describe what I'm going through.
New series on Netflix. Revolves around the story of nurse Ratchet, the nurse from One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest. I've only watched the first episode but I think it might be worth watching. Has an American Horror Story vibe about it but that could just be because Sarah Paulson plays nurse...
I'm a Bulldogs fan but as a Queenslander take an interest in the Queensland teams. This is the ladder at the moment.
All 3 Queensland teams down the bottom. Is this a concern for the state of Rugby League in Queensland or just a temporary occurrence?
Having said that I don't like the...
Eight years episode mini series. First two episodes were on tonight. Pretty decent I thought, though it hasn't got very good reviews on IMDB. I would say most revviewers were American who marked it down for not being full of CGI effects.
Starting on Amazon Prime on June 19th. If it was intelligent humour it would probably be very watchable. But going by the trailer it's peurile toilet humour which will make it unbearable.
I'm sure most of you have seen the video of the 9 yr old who suffers from dwarfism and is being bullied.
However now there are conspiracy theories going around that it is a fake and that the mother is doing it to raise money. Lots of celebrities have pledged money and a trip to Disneyland...
I'm going to Europe for 6 weeks in April. I'm looking at using Airbnb, having never used them before. Good idea? I'm a little bit nervous to use them as I've heard some horror stories. But it seems that, especially in western Europe, it would be considerably cheaper than hotels. Anyone have any...
I'm amazed at how many kids coming into high school these days can't tell the time on an analogue clock, despite being taught it in primary school. My 18 year old nephew who recently finished school cannot tell analogue time. With everything being digitalised and few people wearing watches...
I know there used to be a way we could see a list of members, ordered by number of posts. I can't find it. Does this still exist and how do I see it? Thanks.
I have 27 cousins. Growing up I would see most of them on a regular basis, and some of them I would say I was quite close to. Now I've pretty much lost contact with them all, apart from a few that are Facebook friends. This is partly due to the fact that I live in a different state these days...
Anybody here finished or working on a PhD? I have just started mine. My thesis is in the area of Russian Literature. Looking forward to it but it's a bit daunting at the same time.
Any tips or advice?
