    WSYD How are GWS going off the field?

    Just interested how people think GWS are going off the field. Met a Giants fan at the pub last year who said don't just look at crowds and put the argument up that the Swans are the only sporting club in Sydney that consistently draw big crowds. Giants average last year was around 10.5k...

    How the coalition can win the next Victorian election

    Simple. They must resist temptation from the eight of the party abd keep Pesutto as leader. He appeals to the centralist and those are who you need to won an election. I even know ALP voters that like him, the people that like him least are the far right who will preference the coalition over...

    Times when its been OK to barrack against Australia

    So many people were barracking for the West Indies on Sunday cause it was good for cricket even if we lost. When else in team sports has it been 'ok' to barrack against Australia cause it was good for the game or any other reason?

    An idea to improve food at the footy

    Rather than contracting food at a whole stadium to one company contract the individual outlets within the stadium. E.G let's say the G or Docklands have 30 outlets maybe say a company can have a maximum of 2 or 3 and have competition within the stadium.

    Prediction Weekend forecast

    Sure thing: Close games in round 1 including a game decided by under a goal. Most at stake: Sydney, Gold Coast are there bogey team and need to start well after the GF. Doomsday: GWS lose at home to the Crows.

    Best pre season game of all time?

    Not many are that memorable but I do remember the 2004 Saonts V Cats pre season final being pretty intense for a pre season game. Who was the Saints player that said to Cameron King 'you got was you deserved you red headed c#@$?

    Politics Has there ever been an election where you liked both leaders?

    Just curious as I can't remember a state or federal election where I liked the leaders of both major parties and I can't recall anyone saying they liked both. Plenty of elections where people have hated both leaders of the major parties.
