    Opinion Non-Crows AFL 14 "Put your Foot in it"

    My gut feel is it is more strategic, they are using it as a distraction to deflect attention from the performance on Sunday which was creating a heap of noise with the supporter base. Maybe even using it as the old "Port vs the rest/Us and them" rhetoric to boost up the playing group for the...

    Player Watch Jordan Dawson - 💔

    Perhaps as a supporter group we could do something to show support to Jordan and his family. Maybe all stand at the 12-minute mark of the first quarter on Saturday night and applause for a minute?

    MRP / Trib. Why has Alix Tauru not been cited for high contact?

    Took a great mark, yes, but clearly kneed Noah Ainsworth in the back of the head causing concussion. A Player’s conduct will be regarded as Careless where his conduct is not intentional, but constitutes a breach of the duty of care owed by the Player to all other Players. Each Player owes a...

    Opinion AUSTRALIAN Politics: Adelaide Board Discussion Part 6

    They have always been political hotbeds, it comes from being an environment when large numbers of young adults (typically progressive) are being taught to be critical thinkers. Naturally this will create energy around ideals rather than practicalities. Having had three separate stints studying...

    Opinion AUSTRALIAN Politics: Adelaide Board Discussion Part 6

    Does a votes based payment just provide a barrier of entry to new parties? Currently just provides preference to existing well established groups, and feeds the need for third party donations for those who have not had the benefit of payments from the previous election.

    Opinion AUSTRALIAN Politics: Adelaide Board Discussion Part 6

    This is an idea I feel uncomfortable with. Would prefer a spending cap, rather than blocking donations. Blocking donations really only benefits the ALP, which as the political arm of the union movement do not have to rely on donations, they can find plenty of loopholes to access union funds...

    Opinion AUSTRALIAN Politics: Adelaide Board Discussion Part 6

    It all comes from the old upper house system of lazily voting 1 above the line which then automated your preferences to whatever that party declared as their preferences. Has since been changed once some minors started working together to funnel their preferences so that one of them got elected...

    Opinion AUSTRALIAN Politics: Adelaide Board Discussion Part 6

    Between 21 January 2013 & 26 March 2014 (1 year, 64 days), Weatherill was both Premier and Treasurer, the first to do so in SA since Bannon. Prior to Bannon it was quite common, with Tonkin, Dunstan, Tin Shed, Walsh, Playford, Butler, Richards, Hill, Gunn, Peake & Vaughan all doubling-up along...

    Opinion AUSTRALIAN Politics: Adelaide Board Discussion Part 6

    I tend to think the Prince Phillip criticism is somewhat unfair. He wanted to introduce the AK and AD (Knights and Dames) within the Australian system, which did seem a bit of a gap (i.e. there is a Sir Alastair Cook, but not a Sir Shane Warne or Dame Cathy Freeman etc). I am not necessarily...

    Still waiting to make my decision on that one. Qualified for Father-Son and has good linage. If the grandson(s) of Craig turn out better than Jake, this will be a win.

    Interesting that the concession is that Chris Bowen will chair the COP in Türkiye. Watch them spin that as a big win for Australia, "influencing the world", etc, but it has the optics of Bowen just feeding his ego.

    Opinion Non-Crows AFL 13: Cyclone Season

    Would rather a "proper" finals system. Every finals system in our game should aime to fairly get to the traditional final 4. The top 5 and top 6 systems both achieved this, but it was abandoned once we went to top 8 in order to maintain it being held over 4 weeks. Now that they are willing to...

    Opinion AUSTRALIAN Politics: Adelaide Board Discussion Part 6

    Marshall's biggest mistake was not maintaining a respectable portion of conservatives in cabinet. This divided the party and galvanised the dries to strengthen, as a result there has been a membership drive in Pentecostal organisations, and the balance has shifted overall. Conservative...
