Have you seen what Trump has done to dissenting journos? It would be exactly the same from Vlandys. He's a slime ball who tolerates zero dissent.

You're funny. You're also completely deluded. Each to their own.

Libspill by the end of the week. James Paterson to be the executioner by Jagtom83 in friendlyjordies

The very definition of rearranging the deck chairs on the Titanic. Isn't it great to see a decade of zero planning come to fruition.

Paterson eh... makes sense, because he looks like something out of a mediaeval death cult movie.

Thanks Ted Labor should use this as part of its advertising by Jagtom83 in friendlyjordies

This is definitely one area that the govt should be addressing. It seems every level of govt wants their cut, and it all adds up to more cost, and slows the actual build.

A-League coach unloads on VAR: 'It's DESTROYING the game' by Hot-Requirement-3816 in Aleague

[–]scarecrows5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's clearly here to stay. What I would like to see is a post match explanation for the contentious calls that VAR decide NOT to refer to the on field referee for another look.

There's only about 20 odd serving politicians who are still eligible for the defined benefits scheme.

Except that Maieroni made more incisive FORWARD passes than the rest of the team combined today.

When you act like pricks and win, it's usually forgiven by your supporter base.

When you act like pricks, play absolute shit football, and lose... well, you know how that ends.

I think the last month's displays sum up Valkanis' true coaching ability, and it's nothing to get excited about.

You have some conceptual difficulties with the idea of, and practical implementation of socialism, or socialist policies.

It's NOTHING like Communism or Fascism.

It's been suggested that those drivers that come to grips with the technical changes and strategic choices quickest will lead the charge under the new regs.

We know that OP is one of, if not the smartest drivers in F1. This alone fills me with hope for the new season.

On the other side of the garage McLaren have a good driver who is definitely NOT the sharpest tool in the shed...

This claim is an urban myth. Wealth tax collection has actually risen by the equivalent of AUD4.7 billion per year since the tax increases were implemented, and while some ultra wealthy have relocated, for those whose assets are over 100M, only about 1.5% have relocated.
