    Bruce Lehrmann revealed as man charged with two counts of rape in Toowoomba

    I count 9 words, but that's accuracy in journalism I guess. But really, why would Dutton do this. His party in part lost an election because of a perceived women problem. And his response to a finding that a male staffer in his party raped a female staffer in his party is to praise their then...

    Bruce Lehrmann revealed as man charged with two counts of rape in Toowoomba

    I don't know whether Reynolds is approaching the defamation based only on allegations of a cover up or also in relation to posts about her conduct around the criminal trial. Inevitably, however, the issue of what she did and/or did not do around the criminal trial and generally will come into...

    Bruce Lehrmann revealed as man charged with two counts of rape in Toowoomba

    Justice Lee comes out of this process exceptionally well. So many brilliant observations in the judgment. The lion's den was my early favourite, but from the "bumble" article it is hard to go past the below. As I have already noted, put in stark terms, it is fanciful a somewhat lubricated...

    Player Watch Nathan Murphy (Retired 2024)

    He went from a "when is he going to show something" to someone who you would know if he was anywhere near a contest he would impact it significantly. I believe he put a stop to more opposition scoring opportunities than any other player over 2022 and 2023. He is already being sorely missed.

    This thread is awash with ridiculous comments and posts from its two main protagonists. I never thought anyone could match Danster for ridiculousness, but the bolded is not a bad effort. While it pains me to use the words "to Danster's credit", to Danster's credit at least he wasn't here...

    Autopsy AFL 2024 Round 3 - North v Carlton Good Friday Appeal Game March 29th 4:20pm AEDT (Marvel)

    Think North will win a flag before Carlton. A couple of big defenders away from contending.

    Review Round 3, 2024 - Brisbane Lions vs. Collingwood

    You will finish the season with 15 or 16 wins. Should be enough for top 4.

    Cam Rayner

    I've watched him first 2 games and I don't think work ethic is the issue. He looks a lot fitter and is working pretty hard across the ground. He just doesn't look like he knows how to find the ball.

    Test India v England (5 Tests) + Ind A v Eng Lions (1 Tour Match and 3 FC games)

    Not what I was saying and you know it. You have a defend bazball agenda and you ask "questiions" designed to support that agenda. And you didn't respond to the discussion point. So maybe start there.

    Test India v England (5 Tests) + Ind A v Eng Lions (1 Tour Match and 3 FC games)

    That is a ridiculous question. You know it can't be answered because it didn't happen. But I'll have a go at it anyway. I think if Root had batted like the world class test player he us, and they had picked even one other batsman with a protect wicket attitude they would have done better...

    Think Robbo would struggle to remember what he put last year. And seeking to understand the logic of Robbo is beyond mere mortals.

    Slobbos top 50

    As a predictive exercise I think the list is pretty good. The benefit of a predictive list is you can make excuses when it inevitably plays out differently when you do an end of year actual best. For me, I expect Daicos, Bont, Curnow, Cameron and Toby to be in the end of year top 5. From...

    More possession, shots and shots on target and won the game. Not impressive by any stretch, but the glass mostly empty view is wrong.

    Fixture Carlton Premiers 2024 Preview - No 4 Oliver 'Bergkamp' Hollands aka The Dutch Destroyer

    Did I just see Oli and Eli each get caught holding the ball within a minute of each other? Are they both ridiculously slow, or do they just lack awareness?

    Cam Rayner

    He has potential, glimpses of demonstrated quality and time. Brisbane supporters and one other see nothing but blue sky. A significant number see a partly cloudy day of unpredictable Melbourne weather. A smaller number see dark clouds everywhere. I am old enough to have seen a lot of...

    Premier Lg EPL Matchday 25 & 26 - On Optus Sport

    Most objective people who watch him can see that he gets to the right spot plenty but doesn't get used by his team-mates. I get that you are not objective so you can't see this.

    They are delusional. The cult makes them think they've reinvented the sport.

    Test India v England (5 Tests) + Ind A v Eng Lions (1 Tour Match and 3 FC games)

    Feels like bazball is a cult introduced to make up for a lack of ability. Taking tgw bowling on masks deficiencies in skill and technique. And talking positively about your play even when you're getting smashed means you never question what you are doing. Very much looking forward to seeing...

    Agree 33 is toothless, but 11 in our past 4 compared to 22 in the first 20 is a dramatic improvement. Not saying we don't need to bring in quality, but we do have some teeth coming through.

    Tom Brady is one of the greatest sporting stars in history. I wonder which AFL team such a born winner would choose to support…? 🤔

    This really surprises me. Brady has been like the anti-Blues. He basically sat out his first year of college football in, wait for it, 1995. From then on he gets better and better and better, becoming the GOAT. So he is like the anti-Carlton. Brady retires for the final time in February...

    Cam Rayner

    Problem for Rayner in the numbers, which is consistent with his broader challenge, is that he doesn't seem to be getting any better. It is not like his first 4 finals in his first 3 years were worse than his last 5 in the past 2 years. He was actually better in his earlier games. Needs to...
