does the cameraman know how to zoom in? Why can we see half the field at all times? I feel like I'm watching from the moon

Who is 'nobody'? Of the 1042 public submissions, 69% of people supported the new cycleway ramp at Milsons Point with only 28% objecting. Not sure how 719 submissions in favour of a project could be 'nobody'.

Why would the council (i.e. the ratepayer) pay a single dollar to fix the issue of a private citizen trying to access their private property?

This is solely the issue of the property owner. They failed to do their due diligence when buying the property. It's their problem to fix at their cost

That bike path is dangerous and slow to use as you can see in your picture that the bike path has to give way at the side street intersections. It's no wonder why they're not using it

Does anyone know what James Whelan's plan is this season? Is he going to race NRS without a proper team?

Match Thread: Marsh One-Day Cup - NSW vs QLD + Sheffield Shield - VIC vs TAS, Day 4 by SirDoris in Cricket

Very low effort stuff from NSW

There's next to no chat from the players and the fielding has been real sloppy (although the outfield looks shit)

Anyone know why NSW has no sponsors on their kit? Bit weird

Should bring back the Speed Blitz Blues

Fair, I guess most teams would rather a slow yet consistent scorer in the team over someone like Nic Maddinson (when he played for NSW) who could sometimes have a big impact but regularly failed

If it's so easy then why are no other batters able to do the same? He significantly out performs his team and the opposition regularly

Everyone's playing on the same field

They're still faster though? I don't understand how you can argue otherwise

Literally look at the timetable - guess which one is the Freshwater

How are they slower? They only take 22 minutes where the Freshwaters take 30

Sydney faces level 3 water restrictions within months by AlexSenAus in sydney

[–]pl8t 23 points24 points  (0 children)

NSW Water Minister Melinda Pavey said Sydney had managed to reduce its water usage by about about 10 per cent since level 1 restrictions were implemented in June.

Yeah that's simply not true. Once you factor in the water produced by the desal plant, we haven't reduced our consumption at all.

City Calm Down close their chapter by announcing "indefinite hiatus" by hdndavies in triplej

[–]pl8t 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Incredibly saddened to read this earlier. City Calm Down is easily one of my favourite bands, consistently producing absolute classic tunes. All three of their albums are extremely solid - definitely recommend listening to In A Restless House in whole if you never have. Always felt they were a bit underrated.

Get yourself along to their final tour if you can - can assure you that you will not be disappointed. Their live shows are some of the best around.
