[I Dont Care]

Mine was 48ms ping 9.51Mbps download and 0.83Mbps upload from Brisbane which is only marginally closer to me than it is to Adelaide. When I check to see when NBN is coming my way, it just laughs at me in a mocking way

 

[finbarr]

Major offended on SEN with Andy Maher and co that George Lucas was in Adelaide

"Why would he go to Adelaide, must have hit hard times!! To make a movie about frog cakes?"

"All the CGI in the world couldn't make Adelaide interesting"

Bloody Victorians lol.. newsflash D/H's no one outside of Australia gives a **** about Melbourne.

Whatever there is to do in Melbourne of any significance that Adelaide doesn't have I'd bet London to a brick Andy Maher doesn't know about it or take any part in it. The guy is possibly the most vanilla, uninteresting person in Australia, who'd spend his Saturdays when not working at the TAB in thongs and tracksuit pants.

I'll be switching over to NBN very soon, it's been available in my area for almost a year now but I've been holding off because I wanted to make sure that indoor modem goes where I want it to go which has required some work to the house. We'll most likely be going with the TPG unlimited 100Mbps plan which is about $99/month and about $40/month more than I'm currently paying for TPG unlimited on ADSL2+.

Tpg's prices look quite good compared to iprimus, who we're with at the moment. But the plan we're currently on isn't available anymore, so it looks like waiting game.

We used about 800gb last month (Netflix and xbone downloads I suppose), so anything other than unlimited data is out of the question.

If the Grand Final wasn't played in Melbourne, would Melbourne even exist?

They obviously didn't know that George Lucas went to Adelaide to visit his brother, Rob.

The fact Andy Maher is angered that George Lucas was in Adelaide beggars belief. The fact he tees off at Adelaide because of it simply boggles the mind.

That ******* interviewing Cats players/coaches after the 2009 Grand Final,

"No disrespect to Port Adelaide but this must feel more..."

"No disrespect to Port Adelaide but you must feel more..."

x 200

Actually, Port's last 5 minutes of the 2007 GF was better than St Kilda's last 5 minutes of the 2009 GF.

We dominated and pulled the margin back from 128 to 119. Another 4 quarters of that and we'd have been back in the game!

St Kilda, by comparison, went missing and barely touched the ball in the last few minutes when the game and the premiership was on the line.

The MCC wouldn't allow a Melbourne without the Grand Final to exist.

I do believe that is St Kilda's MO.

Not really.

I was in NZ recently and while I admittedly despise stand up comedians I found myself watching kiwi stand up comedy. I noticed something very quickly. If you are failing as a kiwi stand up comedian just say this "how bit thim uzzies aye? whut a bench uf wenkers"

This also applies to Victorian media commentators. If you look like a dick or you are failing at your job in a massive way, what do you do?

Have a crack at Adelaide.

The fact that I picked up the kiwi/aussie thing in 14 minutes says everything about your average Victorian.

I genuinely do not know what an Andy Maher is.

Had no idea it was even on until you mentioned it.

No one even cared about the ODI World Cup last year, so no.

I thought they just had to mention sheep. Well, maybe that would only work when they tour Aust

Aus v NZ on shortly, I'm not sure why they bother with it at international level

Indians are the worst sports fans on earth

 

[finbarr]

I don't understand how people can become emotionally invested in cricket at any level. I generally go for the team that contains the largest number of players I like. This often had me barracking for the West Indies growing up.

Pure Coax cable close to the exchange can deliver 120mb if everything goes perfectly
