    Workshop Design the North Australia AFL entrant for 2036

    Picture this: The year is 2036. Tasmania are closing on a decade in the AFL, Canberra entered the league in 2032, all established clubs are alive and well, and despite murmurings here and there, there’s as such no further movement on an additional club in southwest WA, Adelaide or even New...

    Discussion Tasmania AFL Jumper Design

    Haven’t designed jerseys in a decade but with a new iPad, Apple Pencil and the Procreate app I wanted to see what I could scratch up. The end result, the Tasmania Australian Football Club.

    The Law Another Aboriginal Death in Custody

    Maybe, just maybe, Indigenous Australians are far more likely to be thrown in jail for crimes which non-Indgenous Australians are often let off with a warning, fine, community service, weekend detention, suspended sentence etc.

    The Law Another Aboriginal Death in Custody

    The statistics are clear that indigenous Australians are disproportionately represented in our prisons, and there is unquestionably long-standing issues between many indigenous communities and police forces across the country. The media have, unsurprisingly, used this to tie into the events in...

    The Law Another Aboriginal Death in Custody

    I don’t know what to say if you don’t think flipping someone restrained and incapacitated headfirst into the concrete is a high risk move than could easily lead to long-term damage, possibly even death. Have a mate practice the move on you and get back to us on how it went - if you’re still able...

    The Law Another Aboriginal Death in Custody

    The cops have him restrained in an instant, the kid didn’t even resist. Cuff him, take him away, have him booked that’s all it would have and should have taken. The cop had done that part in less than two seconds - there was absolutely no need for the tripping action nor the female cop going...

    The Law Another Aboriginal Death in Custody

    Arms pinned, head propelled straight to the concrete. It was a reckless move at best, unnecessary and ******* stupid given the circumstances he was being filmed imo and that the kid wasn’t resisting and was easily restrained. If you can’t see the fault in it, or the very real possibility it...

    The Law Another Aboriginal Death in Custody

    Mentioned this in another thread, if the kid has made a threat, cuff him and take him in. You can see in the footage that the cop has able to put the kid’s arms got behind his back with minimal effort, slam on handcuffs, nice and easy, done with no issue whatsoever. That judo move the cop pulled...

    Politics Is Australia becoming too obsessed with US political culture?

    Arrest him then, don’t throw him to the ground headfirst as well for no reason but to restore wounded pride. You saw the cop put the kid’s arms got behind his back with minimal effort, slam on handcuffs, nice and easy, done with no issue whatsoever. That judo move the cop pulled could have so...

    Politics Is Australia becoming too obsessed with US political culture?

    I apologise for misinterpreting your point. One thing I have liked that this has brought to close attention Australia’s relationship with our First Nations people and given appropriate airplay and time to reflect on this relationship. I agree with you that what we don’t need is people to do-opt...

    Politics Is Australia becoming too obsessed with US political culture?

    I don’t know … perhaps the cop could have handled the situation in a professional way rather than reacting like a thug to a kid mouthing off? I’m certain the teen was mouthing off and being a s**t but really you’ve got to be as thick as s**t to be a cop seeing what’s happening in the States...

    Play Nice 45th President of the United States: Donald Trump - Part 13: Make America Golf Again

    Perhaps, we’ll have to wait and see. Meanwhile, Anonymous have been dumping incriminating posts on a number of individuals on Twitter. Update: There was incriminating posts on a number of individuals and their ties to Epstein including Bill Gates, Prince Andrew, Sarah Ferguson and Naomi...

    Play Nice 45th President of the United States: Donald Trump - Part 13: Make America Golf Again

    Think we might be seeing the end of Trump with this. The establishment are willing to put up with a lot but evidence that Trump repeatedly assaulted and raped a 14 year old child. Not even he will be able to deflect, evade or gaslight this. He’s gone and will likely be behind bars before the end...

    Society/Culture How long can the developed world stay in business lock down?

    Any assumptions I had that China was purely a socialist economy were rapidly dispelled the moment I arrived at Shanghai airport in 2004. Hawkers, Taxi drivers, hookers, touts, restaurants, homeless & unemployed folks surrounded me wherever I went, clambering for a piece of my Yuan. People were...

    Science/Environment Wuhan Coronavirus (COVID-19) - Pandemic Declared

    Does anyone’s workplace have contingencies plans in place for if/when there are widespread quarantine periods/lockdowns in Australia? I work in a large contact centre which could relatively easily transition a large portion of its workforce to remote working from home for a short period at...

    To all the idiots who blame America for September 11....

    Thanks for the bump from half a lifetime ago. I’m amazed I had the foresight back then to see the fruitlessness of attacking terrorism by inflicting terror, which does a great job of propagating further terrorism in return. As you mentioned, 9/11 was successful in concluding ETA & IRA’s...

    Iran Conflict 2019 - ??

    Why would Iran target an oil tanker bound for Japan whilst the Japanese PM is in Tehran for talks? What exactly does Iran have to gain from such a provocative act? As it definitely has plenty to lose … This stinks to high heavens for mine and the more I read about the more sloppy & messy it...

    The 'Gabba (Brisbane Cricket Ground)

    I like the Gabba as it is but can definitely see the benefits of a spruce up given the upgrade to other stadia across Australia in the past few years with competition for events pushing the NSW & QLD Governments to raise/commence new stadium construction to keep up with the MCG, Marvel Satdium...

    Travel South Korea

    I wouldn’t get the Japanese Encephalitis vaccine unless you’d like to have for piece of mind. When I first went to Korea I was advised to only get it if you were staying in remote (or as much as anywhere in Korea is remote) rural areas as the risk was minimal elsewhere. I never got it and...

    Travel South Korea

    I’d probably spend 5-6 days in Seoul doing a day trip to Suwon. Chuncheon is also a nice spot to visit from Seoul. Then go to Jeonju (the 1st city I lived in in Korea) for a day or two and stay near the Hanok Village, it’s a great spot and try to get to one of the mountains nearby such as Maisan...

    Travel South Korea

    The island is very nice, semi-tropical with nice beaches and scenery non-existent on mainland Korea but I’d say you could give it miss unless you were dying to get there as though it’s nice, going there will shorten the amount of time to see things on the peninsula.

    Travel South Korea

    That itinerary seems like a good schedule to see plenty of Korea in a short time period. Jeju is nice but you kind of need a car or your own transport (tour or personal driver) as most sites of interest are a fair distance from each other and the public transport isn’t as terrific as elsewhere...

    Most Boring VFL/AFL Player Encounters/Sightings.

    I’ve served Daniel Merrett, Allen Christensen, Archie Smith, Marcus Ashcroft and (former Rugby League player) Darren Smith at work over the years. Not too much to report, struck up a conversation with Daniel Merrett and Archie Smith on the occasion I first served them, and they appeared...

    Socceroos 2018 WCQ THREAD-v HONDURAS FOR SPOT IN RUSSIA (Dates TBC)

    Honduras are going to be a very tough challenge for the Socceroos over two legs. Honduras are infamous for their gamesmanship on the field and their fans off the field. Think Montevideo 2001/5 on steroids. Hope the boys don’t forget their ear plugs for the night before in Tegucigalpa & their...
