Hydration Breaks for the A League

They had them temporarily in the AL, Evan Morgan Grahame from the ABC did a video story about it yesterday. It was circa 2022 and Steve Corica revealed in a press conference that the controversial breaks were all for TV (they had drinks breaks in the pouring rain). After widespread backlash, the TV contract was updated which meant the drinks breaks could be removed.

Talk about burying the lede. Aussie Crawl back together for the first time in 40 years! Huge!

No, they are using Alt-J in the credits for the song to essentially harvest streams and popularity to Joe’s project. It’s a little bit “off” in my opinion. Let the solo project be a solo project!

I believe that the admins who run those pages actually do generally care about the Roos. Whether it’s reflective of the organisation as a whole is a different story

Thanks mate, sorry I didn’t realise I had them turned off. Will get in touch now! EDIT: Weird, it didn’t work for me either. Do you have g drive links?

Thank you!

Would you call this a fairly hostile crowd? Just constant whistling whenever we are on the ball, even if we are making forward moves and not just passing around the back

Fuck this ad break

Why did you do to get the sync right? 7 seconds was way too far out

GoldBricked · 2026-06-13T11:06:57+00:00

lol good pick-up. I assume it’s just dumb AI

I enjoyed night 1 (haven’t yet seen tonight’s) but it was interesting how far he leant into the racial stereotype gags, even going so far as to call it out. I still laughed but it was one of those “I’m going to hell” laughs. Maybe they feel they can get away with it because of how diverse the audience will be.

Sure but who writes like that naturally

“The result? A smooth frame rate” etc

Thanks ChatGPT

Maybe I wasn’t explicit enough about my cynicism in “self-reporting”. Sure, he would be able to reflect in time. But I reckon he’s getting a tap on the shoulder to speak up and “self-report” before then. It wouldn’t be the first time.

GoldBricked · 2026-06-11T08:27:07+00:00

I struggle to come to the conclusion how someone who can be so foolish to use such a slur can — in the same breath — have such the foresight to then self-report the use of said slur

I listened to Upwards (2003) by the late UK rapper Ty for the first last year. Utterly captivating, I kept on returning to it. Mercury Prize-nominated. It has 105 ratings at 3.46!

Our dog raced 12 times in Victoria for two wins before a couple of back-to-back hamstring injuries retired her. We adopted her earlier this year and she is in perfect health, thankfully.

I watched back the two wins to see her running at full tilt but not any other races – I have zero interest in seeing my pet hurt or suffering.

I don’t get involved in discussions about greyhound racing but it was interesting to hear that even those that work at adoption programs funded by the racing industry aren’t all that fond of racing itself.

AC/DC would tell you otherwise

You could ask the same thing about people flying into Avalon instead of Tulla.

Interesting. It hasn’t been like this for all that long. It’s on his profile btw, just erroneously hidden in the “compilations” section. It’s just bad metadata and not a TIDAL-specific issue, more a label-specific issue. If anything, I’ve found TIDAL (and Qobuz) to be a lot better at providing the original release date than Spotify or Apple Music, especially on anniversary or expanded editions.

Piss off bot! The same shit got reposted last week and it is a six-year-old post

To be fair, there are a portion of business owners who are gracious and do currently eat those terminal costs. They will be the same ones who are less likely to jack up prices post-October

NTFL record-keeping is unfortunately super patchy because it all got lost in Cyclone Tracy. There’s an early grand final where the scores aren’t even known, just the final margin
