    FTA-TV Game of Thrones Season VII

    Fair point re: the shadowing. Like a said, just a suspicion based around the conversation had by LF and Sansa.

    FTA-TV Game of Thrones Season VII

    In previous seasons this thread has been great to read about theories and pick up things I may have missed while viewing the show. The picking apart of each show at such pedantic levels is tedious and has made this thread a bore. Can you imagine the outcry if D&D wrote the shadow baby plot line...

    The Smashing Pumpkins: a Top 30

    You could replace every one of those 30 songs and it would still be an impressive list. How there was no room for XYU and Muzzle staggers me a little but that's the beauty of lists such as this. Would've also made room for Beautiful and Geek USA. Despite this small critique, I appreciate your...

    The Smashing Pumpkins: a Top 30

Porcelina of the Vast Oceans Thats today. On any other day the following could've replaced some of the songs...

    Terrible/average actors who pulled great performances from nowhere

    Not sure if his performance was great or the movie hid his usual crapness, but Stephen Baldwin in The Usual Suspects was one out of the box.

    FTA-TV Game of Thrones Season 6 - non book readers *no spoilers until show airs*

    Def a reference. Just wondering if it may be the first sign that Dany might go down a similar path mentally. Fan theories aside, I always assumed that the madness in Aerys was caused by the long tradition of incest amongst the Targaryns. Something that Dany would also be susceptible too. Just a...

    FTA-TV Game of Thrones Season 6 - non book readers *no spoilers until show airs*

    I cant believe how many people watch, then post about a show they evidently hate. GOT is one of the best shows ever. FACT. Is it perfect? NO The show runners have erred at times but their hit ratio after almost six seasons down is more than commendable. This show continues to rack up iconic TV...

    Live Event James Hird live in concert (Interview now in OP)

    Your post made me curious as to what the maximum payout is for unfair dismissal. Yep, approx $68000. Exactly how many times did Essendon sack the Weapon?

    Live Event James Hird live in concert (Interview now in OP)

    Claiming that you made a mistake by not stopping someone else making a mistake is NOT taking responsibility for anything. One of his mistakes that he freely admitted to was that he was too trusting of others. Many believe him to be heavily involved in the "supplements program" not a peripheral...

    Howletts wife speaks her mind:

    It would be very hard to expose the clubs cheating without implicating yourself as being complicit. Thoughts?

    Play Nice WADA v Essendon 34: Guilty, 2 Yr Susp. (backdated to Mar 2015). Affects 17 current AFL plyrs.

    How can the Chief Editor of the Herald Sun get one of the basic facts of this saga so terribly wrong. Stated that CAS had a 4 man panel and that the verdict was a 2-2 split. Surprised Gerard did not correct him. Buffoon.

    Calling in sick

    According to the Fair Work Act, an Employee is only obliged to notify his/her Employer "as soon as it is practicable" and can actually be after their shift was meant to commence. Given that, as an Employee, I would certainly not make a habit of it.

    Calling in sick

    In most cases whether its the Fair Work Act, Awards or an Enterprise Agreement, you would find that your situation doesn't fall under the entitlement of Personal Leave, which covers both "Sick Leave" and "Carers leave". Going to the Doctor's doesn't necessarily entitle you to Personal Leave if...

    Travel USA travel tips and tricks

    Deltablues, thank you very much for your detailed reply. I have certainly taken many of your suggestions on board. The original itinerary had us going coast to coast both ways but we decided that it was too drive intensive. 4 blokes btw, so no kids or nagging wife to contend with. I've already...

    Booked in for a 36 day road trip starting 30th March, next year. I'll outline our itinerary for any feedback, which will be greatly appreciated. Ignoring all the overnighters designed just to get us closer to our next destination due to the tyranny of distance these are the main stays along the...

    Society/Culture Glenn McGrath - White Hunter, Pink Heart

    Not overly fussed with the dead animals angle but thought his "apology" was pretty shitful. Didn't care for the disclaimer that his actions were linked to his dying/dead wife.

    Cheers for that. Had forgotten that a "former employee" was also part of this process.

    RDO hours have been worked and accumulated. They aren't gifted to the Employees. A tradie works an 8 hour day but only gets paid a 36 hour week with an RDO each fortnight.

    Joffa's letter to the AFL

    As a standard, people are awake for 16 hours of each day. Most eat 3 meals during that period. That's a meal every 5.3 hours average. You are only at the footy for approx 3 hours at a venue which has a shitload of reasonably priced eateries within the vicinity. Choices people. You have them.

    Chapman to Collingwood

    I read this line many moons ago on this board and for this thread, it could not be any more appropriate. Unknown Fact is, a fit Chapman would be a good acquisition for any club in the country, including ours. If this club goes deep into next September, having Chappy deep in the forward 50...

    Toast A bit of perspective for all the Dale Thomas character assassinators

    Dale Thomas is dead to me the minute he pulls on a Carlton guernsey. His history at Collingwood will have a severe taint on it whenever old footage is watched. This has got everything to do with him going voluntarily to Carlton. All you new age w***ers that feel that this changes nothing are...

    May start questioning Buckley if Didak is seen as no longer required and Marty Clarke gets to go round again.
