    As I think I've made clear already that I don't deny that there is a disease called Covid 19, I don't deny that this disease sometimes kills people, and I'm not against vaccinations BUT it's far from the biggest and most serious issue facing the human race at this time and - yes - it appears...

    It's q bit more than a couple of extreme cases. Let's turn to an independent source. The Harvard Law School Forum on Corporate Governance published estimates that the median salary of CEOs of large US companies increased - in real terms - by over 500% between 1990 and 2020. There were some...

    Season 2022 covid thread.

    I was watching the cricket today (you may have been too) when they stated that, in Sydney, the players will be in a bubble. When Ponting asked if this meant they couldn't go to restaurants he was told that, in fact, they can go out to restaurants but only in groups of two or three and they have...

    Just a reflection of human nature. Bankers boost the share price and their own pay packet by selling unaffordable home loans. Petroleum executives do it by stifling environmental legislation. Pharmaceutical executives do it by price gouging (governments pay up to 20 or 30 times as much for...

    And so many of them - like the executives of petroleum companies - boost their own salaries by destroying the world. Its detrimental to all of us that such salary packages are encouraged.

    Play the man, not the ball. I see you've mastered the rudimentary of debate as practised in the public forum. Maybe you could throw in the old playground favourite "well, you did it first". Do you think Pfizer executives have their remuneration linked to the share price?

    In 2021 Pfizer - by their own estimate - made 36 billion dollars from the sale of Covid vaccine which was about 75% of the total company profit from all production in 2020. Their share price increased from a high of $37.58 on 28 December 2020 to $59.38 on 27 December this year. Unsurprisingly...

    'ex' Barrett's Bulldogs

    I think it depends on whether Flanagan becomes available. They need a better option than Barrett. After Pay and Barrett they'll want to be sure their not just leaping onto another sinking ship. Some of the directors at Belmore must be on thin ice. Hang on a sec. Just want see if I can...

    'ex' Barrett's Bulldogs

    Barrett's special skill is the way he destroys structure and coordination in a team. Several of his new recruits have - only very recently - played under good coaches who instilled good fundamentals. It will take a while for Barrett to get into their heads. It took him a while to drag the Sea...

    Happy Festive Season Silvertails !!

    Let's all pause for a moment and reflect upon those whose selfless labour makes this all possible. The poor elves. Slumped exhausted at the hard wooden work benches to which they're shackled, in that harsh, freezing northern prison we call Santa's workshop. Even in their comatose state, you...

    2022 Next Gen Discussion Thread

    Loved the comment from Gordie that the HM win was all the sweeter for being against Parra. Does this mean he's bought into the culture.

    Season 2022 covid thread.

    Do you know how they manage infections in the NFL and EPL? I know that Aaron Rodgers had to sit out a week or two earlier this year when he contracted Covid, which made Green Bay sitting ducks. Jordan Love may prove to be the worst draft pick in history.

    Season 2022 covid thread.

    I doubt the NRL will institute a bubble next season. It's going to be hard for the TAB to set their markets when they don't know who and how many players will have to sit out each week. What if the whole Roosters team visit the same nightclub a couple of days before a match against Gold Coast...

    A truly successful organism sets up a long term relationship with its host from which both benefit. We could learn a lot from some of the bacteria in our gut.

    Your no fun. I thought you'd at least strike at the lure. I miss BIFF. He was always up for a scrap 😉

    I agree with you %100. If people won't do the right thing willingly than - for their own good - they should be forced to comply. Let's not stop at Covid vaccinations however. Every year tobacco kills 24,000 Australians and 6,000 die from health conditions related to alcohol consumption. And...
