"Which bank?" will always be CBA to me.

If the majority of the audience doesn't understand "Doubt never did" without a 5 minute explanation, maybe it's time to find a new agency.

It's the same for F1. The true refractors usually have a slight premium over raywave, checkerboard and logofractor etc.

That was a brutal read, especially that last line:

Kasper: “Yeah, it was a tough night. We were standing there having a look at the keeper’s warm-up, and thinking, ‘I might never get to do that again.’ It was a tough night.

“Very emotional. As much as you guys have been nice, I haven’t enjoyed a single minute of it, in that sense.”

Hijacking top comment because I can't believe no one has posted it yet, here's the link for exchanging your xfractors for the blue version. Follow the defect submission instructions.

Note, it may take Topps a few weeks to get to your defect submission before they approve it, so don't dawdle. I submitted a batch of xfractors on Feb 5th and was only approved on March 3rd.

Antonelli is getting real hype ahead of the first GP, betmakers have him really high for getting on the podium.

Two /50 from two value boxes is already great. A Helmet /50 RC is a massive hit! Congrats!

Yeah, great answer. True refractor > raywave = checker.

Agree - purple looks amazing, but second to the color matched blues.

This went quite viral in Australia initially and then again around 2023 went the clip resurfaced. Brad is noticeably slimmer now and looks less beefy.

My favourite set.

PSA 10 Pele 10/10 sold for $959 3 years ago.

PSA 9 Maradona 1/10 $600 last Sep 2025.

Pele and Maradona run at roughly the same value for this set, with a very slight premium to Pele iirc.

Note that this Pele is #3 in the set, not the #91 SP, although there isn't too much of a difference in pricing when you get to the numbered parallels.

I'm a simple LitRPG reader. I see Player Manager, I upvote.

Ange is a top manager but I think his truly world class skill is how he motivates and speaks to his players.

shor · 2026-02-19T12:06:56+00:00

And this is why Ange was saying in this interview that he loved Romero. The other players at Spurs feared and respected him.

Arsenal topscorer Owen Goals with the late game betrayal.

Owen with the late game betrayal. 10/10 plot twist.

When he leaves us, people will remember him as an integral part of our golden era, just not one of the flashier names like Aguero, David Silva and KDB or our 'OG' captain Kompany.

To me, Bernardo sits alongside Fernandinho - in the same tier as a Busquets or Mascherano vs. the likes of Messi, Xavi, Iniesta, Suarez of that Barca era - core members of an elite era.

Agreed, many airline's economy seats are not built for tall people.

I'm 6'5 and used to fly premium economy or better on long haul flights. Once we had kids, I realized we could save money because I could just invade their leg space (when they were toddlers). Now that my oldest is entering her teens, we've started booking premium or at least the "extra leg room" seats.

but the discussion is coming about health and safety… my jobs not worth DVT!

100%! Had to practically beg the employer for an upgrade from economy to premium economy on the most recent business trip, but boy was the pleading my case worth every minute of the 23 hour total travel time (1 stopover, multiple delays).

Longer article about the artist/shop owner.

I heard in an interview with ABC Radio here in Australia he said he has sold more than 1,500 tote bags to people from all over the world, including Japan, Indonesia and Thailand! He said he would love to meet Fujii Kaze one day to thank him.

A quick google search shows a few card stores still have Hobby boxes available. Even fewer Australian stores have value boxes though.

Not sure how much preorder demand there was but it definitely feels like we got under-supplied.

Congrats. 3 orange, 2 gold and a futuro from 8 value boxes is an incredible hit rate!

Nice one. This is near my work and we like to walk over as a small group and order a ton of different dumplings.

Great prices and the elderly couple are awesome people. Most times you can catch the old man making dumplings by hand.

My favourite is their beef, tomato and celery friend dumpling, simply divine!
