Phew!

Watching Luis Theroux's visit to the Westboros.

Arguing with mates about who is currently Australia's best coach of any code, we got down to 4

Ange Postecoglou
Craig Bellamy
Alastair Clarkson
Andrej Lemanis

Bottom one dropped away pretty quick, really had that boomers playing well but has fair cattle, and collapsed under medal pressure.

Clarkson love him or hate him has done some job....and the massive amount of underlings to succeed on their own on his style Franks it.

Bellamy, every single year has Storm up there, up against a non league state, and non responsive fans really, just relentless how he comes with the goods every season.

Ange, imo is unparalleled atm, peak of his powers and gets the nod for me.

Any thoughts or noms?

Would think there are some cricket and rugby union coaches with fair records, particularly those coaching other countries. Netball too.

Postecoglou is getting it done in a more competitive sport than any other though, and was head and shoulders above his domestic counterparts.

Reckon the last time he failed anything was when he managed the Joey's all those years ago and foz/lez savaged him on SBS. Was probably the making of him, went to Greece, did the hard yards and came back complete.

The fact afl clubs use him on advisory panels a huge tick also.

To be honest, Craig Foster having a go at you is a fairly good indicator you're on the right track.

Gold!

It was an absolute discrace that 'interview' fair enough if a prickly pundit , informed or otherwise wants a stab ...but Les, supposed to be impartial as host, very disappointed in him that day.

Thought Ange gave as good as he got under immense pressure and with the unbalanced amount of time they gave him to speak.
 
SA has lost all power ... I swear the rest of Australia is trying to get rid of us as we've been isolated from the grid haha.
How bad was the storm?
 
So when I was eight, I was on a bus this one time and as we sped along, I gave a pedestrian we were passing a massive bird.

The look this lady gave me was predictably puzzled and not especially pleased. Can't blame her. I had no idea why I was doing it at the time, I still have no idea now, and I just cringe at the memory.

Twenty years later, karma finally caught up with me, and with interest; I was on the train commuting home and at one stage I look up from my phone to see a girl of no more than two, in a pram, giving me the middle finger, with an accompanying evil grin.

I had no idea what to do! Sort of half laughed, looked up at the girl's mother, who upon spying said bird, pretty much squashed her daughter's hand in horror, upon which I lost it completely!

***URGENT*******URGENT!!!!
HELP NEEDED!!!!!
My mate won two tickets for the 2016 AFL GRAND FINAL. They are box seats plus AFL Official Luncheon, Crown Casino penthouse accommodation and $1000.00 for miscellaneous expenses. When he won them his Wedding date had not been finalized. Now it turns out the only date available at the church for their wedding is on AFL Grand Final Day - so he can't go.
If you're interested and want to go instead of him, it's at the Baptist Church at 3PM on October 1st... She is a fairly nice looking girl about 5'5, brunette, clean, cute, awesome smile, and her name is Kate. She will be the one in the White dress.
 
How bad was the storm?

Still going, we didn't have power till 7AM this morning but the wind gusts might get up to 140KM per hour today, eeep.

But should be ok, I think today is the last of it :D
