    Gun violence in USA

    If you believe the alcohol fuelled RL Journalists reporting, half the personnel being sent to LA are "guns" and if you have further belief in the quality of their reporting, the other half are "brutal". Should perk the interest of the locals!

    Referendum

    Nuff's eNuff! We're starting to sound like a Trumpian brain fart factory. Back to the business of "Manly's more in '24"

    Referendum

    I missed your question, orry Brookie Bob. You are right bout the inclination of the ABC, however I find that each aspect of the discussion as handled by the ABC is given more time, more expansion. This allows time for acknowledgment of alternative views vis a vis News Corp's quick "fact" bite...

    No 1 position we need to fill for 2024

    Add to that person; a true " motivational coach ". I cannot see Werner von Siebert getting any one excited or motivated to win at all cost! OK, add another game day coach if you must, as long as they can get into the minds of our players and make them tick more than 60 to the minute.

    Referendum

    Bob, I take it on note that your polling results came from news.com.au ? Yet, that thought exposes another of my prejudices. I don't expect that another 75% of that demographic will change their vote, no matter how much tar and feathers may be applied. I personally don't think the Yes vote...

    Referendum

    An interesting stat out of today's official reports; 63% of young Australians are more likely to vote Yes, and thereby for change. Only 25% of "old farts" (like me) being 55 + will vote Yes. It shows that old prejudices, handed down from generation to generation still stick with that group. I...

    I call on you '"Almighty Football God's"

    You have just wished multiple injuries to all of our representative players! At least Tommy Turbo is not playing, and I hope not sprint training on The Corso.
