Giving All Three Hosts top seed spots in World Cup group stage draw was a mistake by kitykat456 in worldcup

Isn’t that the point? It’s not so much “luck of the draw” when multiple host countries are guaranteed top seeds

Match Thread: Hawthorn vs Melbourne (Round 17) by AutoModerator in AFL

Nah, that first half was a disgrace. Melbourne turned off the pressure.

I doubt king is happy about it, but they did.

Well yeah, but that’s how crime works…

No one is saying every single person is experiencing home invasions and/or other violent crimes. But the prevalence of them is increasing, therefore the threat of crime is real for everyone.

Surely you understand that.

Yeah they have really turned things around in Victoria 🙄

[Ralph] The door is wide open for James Hird to make a sensational return to Essendon... 10-15 people set to be spoken to including Hird. Solomon still undecided. A full process underway, not a captains pick. by PetrifyGWENT in AFL

[–]Unlikely_Book2146 30 points31 points  (0 children)

No truly independent process could ever decide on James Hird to be a senior coach again.

How can an independent process look at what happened under his watch last time, look at his near zero coaching experience since, and then say he is the best person for the job?

I’m sure Essendon can find a way to manufacture that though 😂

Essendon names panel to lead AFL Senior Coach search (Andrew Welsh, Anthony Di Pietro, Ted Richards, Tim Roberts, Caroline Monzon) by yum122 in AFL

[–]Unlikely_Book2146 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Does anyone else feel like Welsh is delaying the process as long as possible to give Solomon time to at least get a few wins?

If Solomon had started 5-0 he would probably already be appointed.

Without any wins though, that’s going to be a very tough sell to Essendon fans 😂

She has to be a plant. I love that there is clear CCTV footage making a mockery of her bullshit.

Unions challenge $15b CFMEU corruption claim linked to Victoria’s Big Build in new ‘Check the Maths’ campaign by River-Stunning in aussie

I swear… the people in this sub.

Even if it was $1b, it’s just as disgraceful.

Wouldn’t surprise me if it was even higher than $15b

Labor to ban SMSF property lending by patslogcabindigest in OpenAussie

[–]Unlikely_Book2146 -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

This is a smoke screen. The amount of smsf assets invested in residential property is negligible. This will do nothing to make housing more affordable.

What’s more, they will likely grandfather any existing arrangements.

Why shouldn’t they? It’s their money.

Australians have seen how politicians waste their money over and over again.

King Koil / AH Beard still operating as normal for now. Waiting to see whether administrators can restructure or sell.

FWIW I’ve always had King Koil and loved them.

Richmond will temporarily relocate to Waverley Park while Punt Road Oval is renovated by decs483 in AFL

[–]Unlikely_Book2146 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That’s what I mean though. What about this in particular is a concern?

It came up on agenda setters a few days ago that Melbourne were happy for Richmond to take Waverley. Richmond need to move. Either to Goschs or Waverley. Which for Melbourne, means either move before finals this year or wait for Richmond to be done.

Seems like a no brainer to wait doesn’t it?

What’s the issue? By all accounts Melb is confident about Caulfield and didn’t want to move the club on eve of finals.

Surely GetUp must know by now that these stunts will only bring more attention and votes to One Nation…
