National anthem hoo-ha
Seems it boils down to what is important to you. The nation - a mental concept The people - living, breathing souls, just like you. Irrespective of appearances. If, say, your parents saw you, not in human terms, but in conceptual terms, then you would've been immediately abandoned to die. You...- Rex

National anthem hoo-ha
Lol, Terry. Good hissy fit. Seems you love dishing it out and have a glass jaw at the first challenge. Kaepernick - one man - simply refuses to stand up during the national anthem and you are full-on outraged. Not some mild disagreement. Not I wouldn't do that but respect his right to make his...- Rex

The classy thing, Terry, would be for you to follow your own standards before demanding others do what you are not prepared to do. While you are drafting that, I'll look forward to you identifying claimed slander in my posting.- Rex

National anthem hoo-ha
You asked me to respond to this posting of yours Harvey. Happy to. Is English your second language because you don't seem to understand what "ist" and "phobe" mean, or the possessive of "Harvey". 1. "ISM" and "IST" mean people who believe in something. An Islamist believes in Islam. Do they...- Rex

National anthem hoo-ha
Most extremists think they and their friends are middle ground. That's just a fact. If you love dishing it out - taking your cheap shots at the 50% of readers here who are left of centre - and can't take it when challenged on this - then maybe it's time to just toughen up. Or go back and join...- Rex

National anthem hoo-ha
The lefties and righties are split 50/50 around the centre, yes? And so when you, TerryRandall, and Little Grubber Kick, actively and repeatedly sought to demean all "lefties" in this thread you sought to demean and offend 50% of the Manly supporters reading this forum. Yes? And that is...- Rex

National anthem hoo-ha
Nice sermon Harvey. Yet it is actually the right - not the left - which is screaming moral outrage here. All because just one man chose to follow his own conscience instead of mindlessly follow the sheep. The conservative right as a group is terrified - absolutely terrified - of anyone...- Rex

National anthem hoo-ha
We agree that the core problem is divisiveness Terry. Your issue is divisiveness against institutions of power. My issue is divisiveness against real live people. I hear you aren't aware of yourself as being a racist. Most people of prejudice (ie most people) aren't aware of it. You call...- Rex

National anthem hoo-ha
So that means you'll stop blaming "lefties" and black people then? And start taking some personal responsibility? And stop whinging about being labelled racist when you freely label others leftist? And start taking some personal responsibility? And stop demanding others show you respect when...- Rex

Missing Taylor reflected our priorities. If we didn't sign DCE then the Titan's cap would have been spent and ours unspent. Instead of the other way around.- Rex

Release Parcell and Api and get a real hooker?
Parcel's defence, passing and fitness are top notch. Where he can most improve is in backing himself. Run hard for the gaps, trust himself, build a kicking game, learn to dominate, get some mongrel. A good dose of confidence would go a long, long way for the Pacman. Api, not Brown, is our...- Rex

DCE is a talented player, no doubt. And we don't know how much of his contract is 3rd party versus cap. But imagine if we'd gone full out for up and comers like the Titans halves. We'd presumably have a better team, more flexibility (no-one signed for 8 years), more free cap, more upside...- Rex

1. Irritability and grandiosity are typical symptoms of bipolar manic (if bipolar2 read manic as hypo) episodes. 2. You recognise you are bipolar 3. People with bipolar often have difficulty recognising when they are having manic episodes 4. Do you recognise you are manic now?- Rex

Offering multiyear contracts to players over 30 is a big risk. Even more so with Brett's knees. The extended contract was always bad business in my view. Unless they were planning a Parra-Watmough-style backending and retirement to benefit the cap. I would love a miraculous recovery because he...- Rex

More match-fixing claims set to rock NRL
How does this make any sense Massoud? In what circumstances would customs officials have any business seizing a person's phone, much less examining the recorded content rather than the physical content, much less "downloading" it and passing it onto police? And how would customs officials have...- Rex

More match-fixing claims set to rock NRL
Best case scenaro is that anyone and everyone involved in shonkiness gets caught so we can move on afresh. If it means we take a hit, then so be it. And if the NRL was serious, they would store blood and hair samples from every player. The threat of being caught when testing improves would up...- Rex
