    B-Sides Rate a song: The Beatles - Dear Prudence

    Never really noticed this song that much before on the White Album, but it's recently stood out for me as an underrated song. Great bassline, great harmonies...can't get it out of my head. 9.5/10.

    Job Interviews

    Anyone had a good run with job interviews? I've got one coming up for my first serious (ie, where I actually use my education to get in the door) job. Apparently they ask questions like "name a time where you've had to use your initiative to solve a problem". I've got a couple of ideas up my...

    Shaving

    Probably a men's only thread this one (unless Aunt Bunny is reading ;)). In the past I used to use an electric shaver but I find nothing beats the old-fashioned razor for a closer shave, albeit with Mach 3 technology. Somersets shaving oil is also a great product. One thing with the Mach...

    Round 7: St Kilda v Sydney

    I think the Saints are a big chance here, Sydney haven't been that flash this year in Melbourne, with a close shave against the Tigers and a disappointing effort last week against the Roos. St Kilda haven't beaten anyone yet this year but now is their chance. Saints by 9.

    James Gwilt

    How ordinary is this guy? No wonder he was a late 60s pick in the draft. Poor awareness, poor disposal, still living off that one decent game in the 2005 finals series.

    Paying off credit cards through NetBank

    Stupid question but was wondering how I pay off a credit card balance using Commbank's NetBank? I had to buy something from overseas so paid by credit card and obviously you can't do it through the regular transfer menu.

    Brett Lee - a star in India

    Was listening to this terrible show on Triple M called "Chaz & Dom from the Chaser" and heard a snippet of Brett Lee's attempt at singing - targeting an Indian audience :eek: Does Brett have what it takes to be a star in India and will this extend his Test career by a number of years due to...

    20/20 - Australia v England

    Being played tomorrow night, does anyone care about this result? Call me crazy but I do and would like to know what our 20/20 international record is like. They beat us over in England which was a preamble to us losing the Ashes, so the game may be more of a barometer than some may think. If...

    Reservoir Dogs

    What are everyone's thoughts on this movie? Would you rank it among Tarantino's best? Just picked this up with a spare $5 from JB. Gotta love the monologue at the start :D

    The Trumpeteer

    Now I've always thought the Barmy Army are a bunch of loudmouthed tools. But this trumpeteer really adds a bit to the atmosphere and knows how to play. Good to hear a nice rendition of Yellow Submarine, even if it is bagging us :)

    "The Big Questions"

    Watched a few minutes of this show...don't know why. I always thought it seemed to cater for the lowest denominator of bogans. I just heard the TV in the other room, and Jules Lund helped the crowd break out into a rendition of "The last plane out of Sydney's almost gone". Terrible stuff.

    Australia's Chances in the Champions Trophy

    There seems to be no thread for general discussion on the Champions Trophy, just match threads. So this is why I'm posting this topic. What does everyone think of Australia's chances of winning the tournament we've choked in the past couple of occasions? Punter said before the tournament that...

    Ross & Gary Lyon

    Take a look at the eyebrows: Are these guys related in any way?

    The AFL's Grand Plan for Northern States

    So the AFL gave the Lions the necessary advantages to get them to 4 Grand Finals, and it looks like the same may happen with the Swans. The question is, are 3 flags enough to ingrain the sport into Sydney's sporting culture? It doesn't seem to have worked for Brisbane who are struggling for...

    Geelong v St Kilda

    Game just about over with the Saints doing it nicely - Geelong's finals hopes have been killed off. :thumbsu:

    Finals Set in Absolute Stone

    Freo's massive upset win has killed off any chance Geelong had of sneaking into the finals. This would have to be the first time in years where we know the result of the finals for certain only 3 weeks out?

    Dice Man Was Wrong!

    Since he posted 800 times when he was right about Richmond beating Collingwood, let's punish him due to the fact he got it wrong today by picking the Dons! BWAHAHAHAHAHA - you suck! ;)

    Brazilian Players' Names

    I've wondered for years why the Brazilians always play under their "nicknames" like Ronaldo who I think is Luis Nazario de Lima and Roberto Carlos Al Takiri. Wouldn't it be better for Ronaldo to call himself "Luis Nazario"? What is with their names over there?

    Kangaroos v Sydney

    Not much interest in this one at the start, and won't be for the rest of the game it looks like. Sydney are running away with this and lead 4.1.25 to 3 points. Could get ugly.

    The Pies - what an awesome unit

    They played some weak opposition tonight but the heart of this side with 1 man on the bench to overrun the Lions (who are a real bogey team) gave me a new respect for the Pies. Call it weak opposition but interchanges are integral to modern footy. To have that taken away from you and still...

    Friday Night Footy - keeps getting worse

    This season, let's go through the Friday night matches. Round 1 - WCE v St Kilda - Not much of a contest, and only 1 goal scored in the last quarter. Round 2 - Richmond v St Kilda - Actually not a bad game in the last quarter due to the suspense involved there but the first 3 quarters were...

    West Coast v Melbourne

    Any thoughts on this game? I reckon the Eagles will smash the Dees, despite their good record at Subi.

    Bulldogs - 3.40

    Is this for real? I know Collingwood are in top form but surely the Doggies are more of a chance than people give us credit for? I thought we'd be about 2.20, slight underdogs for this game. I wouldn't read much into last week's effort as we struggle interstate (against strong sides, that...

    Adelaide to thump Carlton?

    Whenever someone starts a thread like this the underdog always seems to win. Let's hope it can happen again :)

    Crows v Tigers Margin Predictor

    How much will Adelaide win by tonight? Richmond have bounced back the week after huge losses - they lost to the Saints by only 11 and beat Brisbane by 14. Will that put them in good stead for tonight's clash, or will they get done by plenty? I reckon the Crows by 42.

    St Kilda Hacks

    I know they beat the Dogs last week but we were coming off a big loss to the Crows and we've lost a lot of confidence. But that's not what this thread is about. It's about the absolute tripe that the Saints (& Geelong) served up tonight. How the Saints didn't get a run on and stop this crap...

    St Kilda - Time to Sack Thommo

    Even if they win this game Thomas has to be sacked. Can't even get his side up in Banger's record breaking game. He might get them to another finals series (even that's doubtful) but this hack coach just gets beaten in every match where tactics are required. This is why he can't win the cruch...

    Collingwood great Paul Wadham dies

    RIP Paul Wadham - heard this on SEN last night. Anyone know any info on the guy? Apart from SEN I can't really find anything on the net about him.
