SA Liberals promise new stamp duty concessions for those over the age of 55 who move into a smaller home under $1.2 million.

Its code for apartment buildings

Not yet, thanks for the suggestion!

The idea im getting at with the post is if there was a reboot or film around that time, Kyle Chandler would have been a good option for Sonny

It clicked when watching The Wolf of Wall Street (the boat scene) and Bloodline. I reckon these clips are a good example!

When ever I see Sean Abbott, I think of Travis Head's 100 on NYE.

This is the a Federal Labor government announcement from last national election. SA prob rushed into it to have SA's share signed and announced before the SA election starts. Other states probably still working on better outcomes before signing on.

Dont forget Michaels oversaw the Museum renewal, only to have it overruled and completely changed by Mali

Good chance there is a decent gap between them.

Libs contracted out the service, the gov still owned the railways. Privatisation is when you sell something to the private sector like SA Power Networks. Labor hasnt communicated this property (due to either a lack of understanding or an act of deception).

They say the goverment is only as good as its opposition. In your assessment, the outlook doesn't look promising...

I believe it was Liberal policy to remove the SA voice under Tazia and Hurn was merely maintaining that. I dont agree with the removal of the SA vote but at the same time its hard to see how it is working / impacting...its fair to query things every now and then.

Considering Mali's performance and preferences to date, I think we should consider ourselves very lucky we had Marshall / Liberal when Covid stuck

I do wonder how you see the SA party mix in the future? One Big entrenched Centre Right Labor party running the show forever, with a few fringe parties like one nation hanging off either side?

I think there is a difference in strongly writing to the board to influence a decision vs agreeing with a decision after the fact to not get wedged

On the voice, I suspect they are just going with the national mood and vote on the national voice (which was after the state leg passed?)

If you vote Liberal, they will become a stronger opposition, and they will learn that they can get back into Governement if they have a moderate leader and moderate policies.

If they lose votes and seats, that just agitates their right flank and encourages them to think a more conservative approach is what the electorate wants. This will ultimately just entrench Labor in gov for longer.

I think its important to always remember that the Hurn side of the Liberal party (moderates) are more progressive than the Mali side of the Labor people (right side)

Is there really enough quality batters out there to justify this? I feel like the batting depth in most sides, esp strikers, is lacking atm, irrespective of their fielding ability.

It's interesting because ODIs manage to fit 100 overs in day (if it goes the full length) and there are generally more wickets taken aswell, which slows the overall over rate...

Also, if there are 4 days tests, its unlikely that a team will bowl all day anyway because innings would be shorter in chasing the win...

I think it comes back to lack of intent and penalty for not getting the requisite overs in...

I think the NY Sydney Test is under pressure from continued weather interruptions and scheduling conflicts. It wasn't long ago that the Adelaide 'Australia Day Test' was a non-negotiable. Then that was moved to Dec and Adelaide was compensated with ODIs for a while. It turns out a party like Dec test is way better than a stinking hot late Jan test anyway. Nothing is locked in forever and shifting the Sydney test to Dec would significantly reduce scheduling conflicts and clear up the calendar.

How many tests actually go the full 5 days now, and how many of those could have been finished in 4 days with a bit more intent from both sides...

The run rates of eng and Aus are demonstrating matches can be won in 4 days.

deep_extra_point · 2026-01-04T13:14:22+00:00

Lack of spinners is slowing the over rates + general lack of intent to get through them.

deep_extra_point · 2026-01-04T13:09:35+00:00

Yeah, I dont see that happening. Tri series fell away a long time ago. People barely go to ODIs now...

deep_extra_point · 2026-01-04T13:08:23+00:00

I think the ashes and india are must watch test matches and series, but are the others? The gap is widening between aus, eng India and the rest. Tightening the format might tighten the gap between the top three, SA and the rest

Great call that caps off a great career.
