    NRL players refuse to return to training on May 4 if pay agreement isn't reached

    I don’t, TBH. I’m concerned about how complacent people are being already - the number of people just wandering through the shops (including parents who apparently think it’s ok to let their kids wear roller skates and blunder into people and shelves), some mouthing off about how this is all...

    Who else watched the replay of the 2008 GF with Beaver, Matty and Box?

    My mum goes overboard on the catering too, doesn’t stop us trying to scam extras of the good stuff @:D

    $5000on the spot fine for abusing front line staff ..

    That’s the plan @Woodsie - I’m in the control room so not such an issue during work hours, but I’ve heard of people being abused going to/from work in uniform. Hoping it doesn’t happen to any of my colleagues, but if it does I would expect the culprit to get a throat punch as well as the $5K...

    Who else watched the replay of the 2008 GF with Beaver, Matty and Box?

    We always try to stitch each other up at Xmas dinner at Mum’s - stick your head round the kitchen door while she’s getting the roast pork ready and say “so-and-so says they don’t want any crackling”. Cos with 8 kids and all the assorted partners and offspring in tow these days, she sometimes...

    Two Bulldogs players stood down.

    It’s the very fact that - as you rightly pointed out - they ARE educated on this stuff that has got them into strife. It’s not just the interacting with the kids on school visits (and I’d bet they get reminders before every single one - the clubs would have to be aware that there are at least a...

    Two Bulldogs players stood down.

    I wonder how ‘independently’ though? I mean - if you have a Seb Ryall* type situation, say CHW has met the girl out at a pub, restaurant, whatever, not known she was from the school they’d visited etc - not much to see here, and he’s guilty of breaking a team rule and that’s about it. If...

    Ironic that they brought up the ‘concerning act notices’, given they’ve also been the major beneficiary of those over the past few seasons...

    JDB Federal Court Challenge

    I think what sometimes gets overlooked here is that while, yes, sports stars/celebrities stand to lose a lot more, that’s also because they’re getting paid exorbitant amounts of money that allow them to set themselves up for life (if they use the opportunity wisely) in an 8-10 year career, which...

    Zac Saddler ... Indigenous team ..

    Fletcher Christian. There are basically a handful of Bounty mutineers that all the Pitcairners are descended from, about half a dozen surnames on the island I think. And a fairly recent history of passing child molestation off as a ‘unique cultural practice’.

    JDB Federal Court Challenge

    I suspect that it might be difficult to prove loss of the ‘top-up’ income - both from rep selections and from sponsorships/endorsements. As far as rep selection is concerned, there’s never a guarantee you’ll hold your position - both because a better player may emerge (Cameron Murray, come on...

    JDB Federal Court Challenge

    Genuine question @urulion as I’ve got no idea on the subject - has anyone ever, after being found not guilty, taken their employer to court for having imposed a similar paid suspension while they faced criminal charges? There are just so many major employers I can name off the top of my head...

    JDB Federal Court Challenge

    It will be interesting to see whether he does sue if found not guilty (and it’s a big ‘if’ ). The reason is, there would be different evidence used/allowed and different points to be proven if you were suing for defamation, restraint of trade or whatever. And a different judge whose opinion on...

    JDB Federal Court Challenge

    Any chance it’s got something to do with Sinclair recently retaining new counsel? (reported as the reason the proceedings were to start this week instead of in a month’s time - the new barrister had an opening in his calendar that the original one apparently didn’t). Perhaps their respective...

    THE LORD SAID' go play for Catalans Izzy'

    Yep. The census data on religion is incredibly unreliable - people like my mum, who hasn’t seen the inside of a church in decades, happily tick the box for whatever religion they were baptised into more than half a century ago. She put it on all our school enrolments too. My 14yo nephew was...

    THE LORD SAID' go play for Catalans Izzy'

    Mate, piss off. You’re doing the classic pigeon move of crapping all over the chess board and pretending you’ve won. The sad thing is you lack the self awareness to even realise how dumb you sound. You’re welcome to your fairy stories, the rest of the world moved past it some time ago. Grow up.

    THE LORD SAID' go play for Catalans Izzy'

    Could go there but I’m not sure anyone’s that interested @:D The other angle is just how much classical philosophical traditions (mostly Greek, esp. Aristotle) had to do with what you’d think of as the ‘religious’ undertone around the Scientific Revolution period. It wasn’t all father/son/Holy...

    THE LORD SAID' go play for Catalans Izzy'

    There are people on those lists that I know for a fact questioned the religious doctrine of their time; a random list compiled by someone calling themselves ‘The Doc’, with a clear vested interest in promoting religion, counts for far less than you think it does. And as for Wikipedia...wow...

    THE LORD SAID' go play for Catalans Izzy'

    I don’t drink coffee. And throwing out extra names when you get caught out on one doesn’t help your case. Just a tip: there’s proper academic literature out there, what you’re posting is basically the equivalent of the anti-vaxxer propaganda, or Dr. Googling medical conditions.
