Re: Soundwave 2011. *puts hand up* I was there too, torrential rain and all. Can't believe it was over 15 years ago!! Lowlight of the day was being dragged inside to see Ween while I wanted to stay outside and watch NIN. Unbelievable, but I was only 15 at the time. Shoulda told my mates to...

Disagree with you on Hardingham. I think he's worth persisting with for another couple of years. As for the other three, agreed. Dead wood.

Re: Whomb's Pick: The worth of Slattery He's a good average footballer, that's about it. Don't expect much more than what you see from him now and you shouldn't be too disappointed. What I don't understand is how he seems to now be a walk up start in our best 22 regardless of form, whereas a...

OK obviously you can all see who I support so I do indeed have a vested interest in this topic after today. However, as some of the neutrals in this thread have alluded to this is symptomatic of a bigger problem. It's not just today, I watch pretty much every game of the week and the standard...

Sad news indeed. I think Paul always had a struggle with his "demons" if you will, and this is what has lead to his untimely death. R.I.P. Paul.

I love Longy just as much as the next Essendon supporter out there but this thread has become slightly embarrassing. Accusations of racism and bigotry being levelled at people just for expressing their opinion, what a soft society we have become. We can do without this whole "faux-racism...

Jeez I love the way Howlett goes about his footy. Tough as nails. He's been just about our most impressive youngster so far this season IMO.

It's just waaaayyy too much of a subjective rule to expect the umpire to decide whether the player was under pressure or not. Take the Hooker decision today which added another element of subjectivity. To some it looked as if he deliberately swatted the ball to the goal line but to others it...

Absolutely ****ing terrible decision :mad: This one has sealed it for me. There is now more allowable contact in a game of basketball than there is in Aussie Rules Football. What a sad day. The current admin really need to get their heads out of their arses because they ARE ruining...

Interesting thread, albeit somewhat depressing. Human nature is just weird. I've always said that relationships are like the yoghurt aisle at your local supermarket, everything has a use by date. I've seen some of the strongest relationships fall by the wayside due to nothing else but time...

Great thread :thumbsu: Massive Slayer fan as well so I'll chuck my two cents in on this issue. 1. Reign In Blood - I can't describe why this is one of metal's all time greatest albums. All you have to do is listen and you'll understand. It is just an un-relenting 28 minutes of fury ;)...

Re: Tattoo's..are they becoming bogan again ...saw a group of about 4 girls at the local shopping centre today, all of them obvious Kat Von D wannabes with pretty much the exact same tatts in the exact same places as each other. Was highly amusing and they looked disgusting to boot. Way too...

Re: Its official mcphee is gone I'm not that disappointed really. I thought McPhee used to cop a bit of a raw deal from some fans but there were definitely elements of his game that didn't help the team, I noticed this more during the past season when he would inexplicably cough up the footy...

Nice response. Again, do you have anything meaningful to contribute? Something? Anything?

Haha so holing up for what, 4 weeks on the Oceanic Viking and demanding to be let into Australia isn't holding a government to ransom? As I've already pointed out, they are illegal immigrants, just because YOU don't like the rules it doesn't change a thing because in the eyes of the law they...

Errr yes it is mate, as I said earleir there are processes that all asylum seekers are supposed follow, the latest boatload are not following these processes and are expecting to be granted instant asylum, hence the reason for me calling them illegal immigrants to highlight the difference...

Tabloid outrage? What the hell are you talking about? Where is the tabloid outrage in my first post? What is tabloid about it? Have you actually got anything meaningful to contirbute to the discussion or not?

Ahh ok ,don't address my post, just go on one of your "ad hominem" attacks that you've been accusing others of doing to you. We get it mate, you can't rationally argue the point so you go on to some emotional rant, that is the tool of the person who would rather stifle debate, well done. In...

Who said it was? There are ways to go about it and the current "boat people" certainly aren't going about it the right way. Do you disagree? Do you think trying to sneak in through the back door with no identification and holding a Government to ransom is the LEGAL way to do things? All...

Is this for real?? Yes, NBA ballers are great athletes but you've picked just about the most random, un-athletic thing associated with the game of basketball. Palming a ball requires one "skill" and one "skill" only....having big hands, which most AFL players have too. Strange post....

Haha amusing thread... Been to plenty of gigs in my time, mostly metal but a few hip hop as well, it's got nothing to do with bad security and everything to do with the ****wits who are into the sort of music that was on display at this particular show. I honestly can't recall seeing a...

Shoulda known, that drumming is just way too clinical to be 100% human, triggers or no triggers though he's still pretty damn good at what he does!!

^^^^ That's pretty much exactly where I stand too. Demanufacture is a fantastic album that has stood the test of time, I can still throw that on and enjoy it, but they kinda just lost their way after releasing Digimortal IMO. Raymond Herrerra is a BEASTLY drummer though, the guy sounds...

Sadly I think there is a hell of a lot of truth in this post and the "emo" subculture that teens have been embracing of late has a lot to answer for. Seems like in that scene everything morbid and downbeat is to be embraced and being down and depressed is the "in thing".

This is pretty much how I saw it as well. Seemed to me that in the last quarter the Saints were a lot more reactive than proactive and just wanted to hold onto the lead. Obviously the conditions were rough but I thought they kind of went into their defensive shell in that last quarter.

^^^^ That's what I was thinking too. I don't want to make light of what happened to these kids, especially given that one of these thugs broke a girl's jaw FFS, but yeah, if that went down when I was in Year 12 the 6 guys probably wouldn't have been able to get away without some sort of...

^^^^^ Yeah I remember hearing people talk about how gory it was as well, ludicrous. I reckon it's simply because this movie exposed a whole lot of people who wouldn't normally watch horror movies to that genre so they weren't used to the violence that horror fans watch every other day. I have...

Lots of horror movies these days tack on the "based on true events" line to promote their movie when they are really just based on a mish mash of different events that can somehow be loosely related back to the plot. The Texas Chainsaw Massacre remake used this to good effect as well, with a...

Bayswater = Bongwater

This thread is great, five star effort :thumbsu: :rolleyes: Welcome to the offseason...where ********s who don't know what the hell they're talking about have months to come up with all sorts of bullshit conspiracy theories, fantatsic. To the OP, all of this was covered last month when...
