83.59% of of your posts reflect that!

(I am 100% correct)

Sorry to re-derail this thread, but I need help from the stats gurus. What is the % of AFL players that play in a premiership team?

Well, if there are 18 teams with 40 senior-list players each = 720
Annual list turnover (draftees, retirees, delistees) = 180-odd

22 players win a flag every year.

Of those there'd be the odd double-up, like Darren Jolly, half the Cats list, a few Swans players.

Answer: France!

I just got an email from Google+ saying I should add two young chappies named Matt and Rory.

I don't know about this....

Could be either me. (the real matt) or matt tarrant (bizarro matt)

Lasted 16 seconds... The original was perfect. What the **** was that.

 

[Hooligan87]

And just for the record, UK shows remade for USA audiences make me throw up.

I'd usually agree, but Shameless is really good.

 

[Kickpuncher]

I didnt say US shows were better. I just cant stomach watching a british show for to long. That US remake of The Inbetweeners is cringe worthy

One Brit show that I actually do like though is The Inbetweeners I just couldnt watch it in marathons like I could Community. Hell I didnt even mind the first couple seasons of Skins.

Are you a fan of Shameless? If so do yourself a favour and never watch the USA version.

No, No, No, No, No, No, No, No, No, No, No, No, No, No, No, No, No, No, No, No, No,

The USA has also ****ed up Australian shows

I watched the US Shameless first, and have tried to watch the UK version, but the UK version looks and flows like a cascade of runny shit by comparison IMO.

NO! the UK version is black comedy plus British comedy at it's best. You need to purge yourself of that USA shit

 

[Portia]

British comedy at its best has characters with a degree of depth to them, as opposed to a bunch of pure caricatures.

When you watch the US one, its a full on dramedy, and comparing the two I can only see that they learned a lot about what to fix to produce a good remake.

 

[Hooligan87]

I've been a fan of the UK Shameless since the beginning so to watch the US version just seems wrong. And the characters do have depth to me, they almost seem like family

The greatest show of all time. OF ALL TIME

Speaking of Ricky Gervais, Karl Pilkington is the funniest man alive.
