The most minuscule amount, muscle is about the only thing that helps and there is virtually no muscle on your face. Honestly I train with some pretty decent guys and I have seen some very trained dudes get knocked out with innocuous blows. Edit - Back to UFC on FX: Alves vs Kampmann, it...

So you think being trained makes you have an ability to take punches? :facepalm:

Get hit by Sonnen throwing at any strength and tell me "there would be absolutely no power behind them". Trained fighters hit hard no matter how it looks on TV.

Yeah ok. You disagree with it so its bullshit. You don't think they maybe put more effort into determining it than you? The fight was contentious but in reality, Sonnen easily did enough to win, and I had money on Bisping.

I love this attitude. Why does the crowd need to know how to fight? Also thanks for the oversimplification of this sport, just goes to show though that the worst critics don't pay attention past the headlines.

The Australian and News Ltd organisations have shown little to no real interest in NBN facts. All they want to do is use it as a means to tear down the government. http://www.roymorganonlinestore.com/News/Business-Engagement-with-NBN-Looking-Healthy.aspx...

Not surprised by this at all. The show is notoriously cheap to produce (once you have the house in place) considering how many hours a week you can pull out of it. It also attracts demographics advertisers love; teenagers and I am sure they will win their fair share of nostalgic 20 and 30...

Most accurate comment I have read in this thread.

I was sort of trying to get at this issue. The immediate split in the playing group became apparent in the court case, if instead St Kilda said, look you're innocent until proven guilty and we are all 100% behind you, maybe they would be the 2010 premiers. It is pure speculation of course...

After seeing the conclusion of Lovett's court case I began to wonder about how the Saints would have done in the first of last years grand finals if Lovett had been playing. I'm no expert on St Kilda's list but I would assume he was in the best 22 last year, considering he was only recruited in...

I wouldn't trade Gawn for less than Dustin Martin or a top 10 first round pick. Max has future gun written all over him.

First up its grammar. I agree that I would prefer not to spend tax-payer money on services that can be provided by commercial entities but my issue is that we are gouged by so many businesses. I look at broadband access akin to something like roads or rails. Sure someone can build those...

Maybe so, maybe not. We can argue this endlessly, only time will tell. I will ask this though, are there any set of circumstances in which you would be happy that the government's current NBN was built? For example if data requirement increased by many orders of magnitude over the next...

You're missing the point. It can meet those demands when/if required, with ease.

One in the hand is worth two in the bush. That is the deal with all these technologies people keep spouting as the next big thing. None are proven, they may turn out better but no one is certain, and they ALL have their drawbacks. Since the mid-nineties fibre optic cable has been a valid...

A typical magpie weighs 317 grams. http://birdsinbackyards.net/species/Gymnorhina-tibicen multiplied by 10 is only 3 kilograms... Birds need to fly you know, so they tend not to weigh much.

LOL Thanks, I needed a good laugh. Straws have been adequately grasped.

Protecting your investment? Due dilligence? Because they could? You're basically arguing that you shouldn't pick up a free fifty bucks because your too good to need it.

Jim Stynes is glaring at you, he doesn't look happy. I do agree though, our list has been very average over the last few decades.

Apologies it is anecdotal and I can't find any links. I'll search around more and see if I can't dig something up.

He has told HBO how the series finishes, so if he dies they will continue the show regardless. The books won't be touched though so it wouldn't be the same for sure.

Not even close, what makes The Wire so amazing is that the story was amazing from start to finish, the books aren't even complete.

I was worried about the quality of the dragons considering some of the production values, but I was pleasantly surprised. Yeah read the first now at least, I read the first one during episodes 7-8 and I wish I had waited, I think it devalued the show a little.

Couldn't agree more, I realise they only have so much of a budget but I felt like the tactics Rob used were completely gleamed over. I loved the Aemon story revealing his relation to the Mad King, also Old Bear revealing Jorah Mormont is his son was cool too.

So what do you know about the compensation system? Or are these just guesses? Compensation is based off what the player receives at the new franchise, so if they sign him to a similar deal to what Gary Ablett got, then yes we will get a similar compensation. The AFL makes the call but...

Moloney feeds off the leadership he provides, make him captain and watch him become a truly elite player. That's not a slight on any of the other leaders more that Moloney fits the role so naturally he is the obvious choice.

This is why I hate the idea of Ch 9 getting the Australian TUF series, they have absolutely no respect. Sure the event aired at 11am but that is a HUGE time slot for men, just ditch the kids cartoons and give us live fights.
