    Opinion International Geopolitics

    It could be interesting to see what happens to the democracy rating of the US with the orange clown and his on the spectrum mate `Elmo' calling the shots. Due to their own propaganda many septic tanks have the mistaken belief they are living in the greatest democracy in the world, but nothing...

    Great win by the Aussies, and excellent test debut by Webster. :thumbsu:

    Cricket Discussion - Part 3

    Agreed, plus Bumrah's response to that last ball dismissal of Khawaja yesterday was even more childish than what he did after dismissing Konstas in the previous game. IMO he is now in the same d***head territory as Kohli and Siraj, but so far the Aussies have displayed much cooler heads and...

    I read the report on that road rage incident where Sidhu who was aged 25 at the time punched a 65 yo in the head resulting in the victim's death, but I can't find any info as to reason for the huge gap between the time of the incident in 1988 and what appears to be an extremely inadequate...

    Agreed Phil, I wouldn't have thought it was possible to dislike any cricketing team more than the poms, but with a few exceptions like eg Rahul this Indian team is so far up itself I have put them at the top my hate list as well, and as you suggest today's win was very satisfying. They have...

    Sensational win by the Aussies and excellent use of the bowlers by Cummins, and like no doubt many I thought the game was headed for a tame draw after that wicketless middle session. Now for a negative, the arrogance of the two Indian batsmen who approached the officiating ump after their...

    News Aaron Shattock update - out of intensive care, recovering well

    I'm hoping no news is good news and Aaron is on the way to a full recovery, but does anyone have any updates on the situation?

    IMO this is the most up themselves Indian team to ever come to this country, and Kohli's dismissal plus Siraj getting none for plenty was a very satisfying quinella for me. Re the `incessant metaphorical wristies,' Richie Benaud, Ian Chappell and Bill Lawrie would have nailed any player who...

    Banter TRTT Part 15: David KOCH on Epstein List!!!11!!!!!!

    Agreed, the original codral cold and flu tabs were so good that no matter how bad you felt they had something in them that gave you a boost in minutes. Similarly with the original Sudafed, it also worked very well but it contained a drug that could be sold for multiple times more than the...

    Toast Congratulations John Cahill - SA Sporting Hall of Fame

    My memory of John Cahill's two years at collingwood is that he resigned due to being absolutely fed up with being continually back stabbed, and specifically by Lou Richards and his brother.

    John Snow's bowling and Ray Illingworth's captaincy were the difference between the Aussies winning or losing that 1970-71 ashes series. I attended the MCC v SA game at Adelaide oval and Snow looked to be no more than a bog ordinary medium pacer who from memory took only 1 wicket for well over...

    Agreed, for some reason it took the 3rd ump an eternity to respond to the on field umpire's call for a video review for the Sam's `dismissal', and when she did she completely ignored the obvious leather on wood sound as the ball passed the bat, and for some reason only concentrated on the...

    Banter TRTT Part 15: David KOCH on Epstein List!!!11!!!!!!

    The best sportsman ever debate is very much a personal thing and will go on ad infinitum. Bradman's 99.94 ave was achieved in an era when the game was often played on suspect pitches with bats the size of tooth picks compared to what is available today, and with little to no protective gear...

    Maybe someone can come up with a comparison between time lost in Brisvegas tests due to rain, and the other venues. Like probably many I suspect the Gabba will have the highest amount of lost time due to weather conditions, but it would be interesting to see if the facts support that opinion...

    Siraj definitely mouthed off at Labuschagne earlier today after that player played out a maiden over, and one of the Aussie commentators ( I think it was Gilchrist ) said `he definitely wants to say something!' The bloke's lips were moving and he was forming words Gilly, but it wasn't loud...

    Player Watch Ivan Soldo

    His sister's `cop that Richmond' in the rooms after a game early in the season was premature and unnecessary given the tiggers had no involvement in that particular game, which could suggest Ivan isn't the only member of the family who may be lacking in the trams and trains department. With no...

    Resource General Footy History thread

    Not football related except for the venue, but there was a programme on the ABC the other night about Billy Graham's crusades to this country, with apparently a 3rd of Australia's o_O then population of 12 million attending those `crusades' in the various states outdoor sporting venues in which...

    Albo visiting a burnt out synagogue and then walking around with one of those jewish skull caps on his head, which imo a section of the crowd outside appeared to pick up on as a cheap publicity stunt wasn't a good look. Let's hope there wont be any retaliatory burning down of a mosque and he...

    Player Watch Ivan Soldo

    I will be happy to be wrong with this but I have a feeling if Soldo can't get back the number one ruck position from Sweet next season we could be in for another dummy spit.

    Re Trump and Musk, apparently both of them were at the re-opening of the Notre Dame cathedral and a comment was made in the news service I saw that the Donald is carrying on like he is already the current president, which given his obviously ginormous ego was no great surprise! Interesting...

    Hookes was right up there as one of the most entertaining batsmen in the game and when he had is eye in he could hit any bowler out of the park, but as you say his career for Australia `was distracted by negotiations for World Series Cricket.' In the 2nd season of that comp and in his first...

    Autopsy David Koch and the Vanillarization of Port Adelaide (by tribey)

    I suspect the kokmeister would be unhappy with comparisons of his `achievements ' at the club to ordinary vanilla and would much prefer the fancier sounding `French' vanilla, where apparently egg yolk is the added ingredient. :think:

    I have never seen an oppo cricket team come to Australia and be as self entitled as this current Indian mob are! Siraj's carry on by throwing the ball in the vicinity of the batsman after Loosebuschange legitimately pulled away and put his hand up to let the bowler know it was due to movement...

    Lead by a 6 for from Starc the Aussie bowlers did a good job restricting India to 180. Difficult session tonight for the batsmen against Bumrah, and we probably can't afford to lose any more than a couple of wickets to be a chance of building a decent score and hopefully a 100 plus lead tomorrow.

    I will be very happy to be wrong with this but I have a strong suspicion the Indians have got inside the heads of a number of the Aussie players and it could all be downhill from here. The successful Aussie cricket teams fought fire with fire, but now we have an Indian batsman telling a bemused...

    Banter TRTT Part 15: David KOCH on Epstein List!!!11!!!!!!

    From the mid to late 1960's US emission laws drained the power of many performance cars, but re pic 3 in that 8 pic series those Jag engines just don't look right with the original triple 2'' SU carb set up replaced by a couple of Strombergs, and I suspect the change may not have resulted in...

    News Tom McCallum signs with Norwood

    Even if Tom McCallum makes it onto the first Tassie list it would probably be as a token pick to make up the numbers as I suspect on disclosed form there is as much chance of the Tasmanian tiger being found alive and well than there is of him making the grade at AFL level. Re nord signing him...

    Not quite the same thing obviously but I can recall reading in a `Wheels' magazine (or similar) way back in the early 1970's that a small factory owner somewhere in NSW decided the Holden HR was the best car ever, so he rebuilt a number of them and then attempted to sell them as new cars...

    It was only a matter of time before Loosebuschange's penchant for playing and missing countless times before he had reached double figures had to eventually catch up with him, and now that Smith's hand eye coordination is on the wane his non existent footwork has been regularly exposed in recent...

    Not that we want to see a return of the days when Geoff Thompson said he liked to see a batsman's blood on the pitch, but in my opinion the Indians have become way too comfortable in Aussie conditions to where they are now the aggressors and we had a 21 yo who got cocky enough to tell Starc he...
