Amazing pictures mate. It seems like quite a hilly place.

It's definitely got the ups and downs of being a Freo supporter!

I don't know if many other gym posters will agree but... Eulogy by Tool is such a banger to psych you up pre-gym.

Raining Blood by Slayer obviously is the best for actual heavy lifting.

Raining Blood is one of the best songs for lifting of all time

I know we've spoken about this on chat before, but I swear that song gives you extra 5% strength

I LOVE hiking. This is me in Nepal a country every hiker should visit!

Incredible photos mate!

Have to agree on Raining Blood. It's on my Spotify daily play list rotation and always seems to come on right when I'm about to lift something reasonably heavy.

Was lucky enough to attend the Pearl Jam concert at Marvel Stadium tonight....was freakin awesome. Just wish they would come to Perth like the old days.

I was there as well. Incredible show. I was around 30m back. Cosmic Psychos were awesome as well. Pixies underwhelming to me, zero stage presence and charisma.

Sticking around for Monday as well. Expecting almost an entirely different setlist apart from a few classics they played yesterday.

Checking the gig guide, and it's not just PJ skipping Perth. I see that either this weekend or next there's The Saints, Dropkick Murphys, Custard, Cold Chisel, Hoodoo Gurus, The Angels, The Cult, plus many others playing in Melbourne, and I don't recall any of them except the Cult announcing Perth dates. Seems like this is worse now than before COVID? Feels like after WA closed the border, a lot of promoters/bands have just given us the middle finger as payback.

I don't know how much it costs to tear down the stage and relocate, but it has to be economical to play in front of 50k people at Optus and Adelaide Oval. They could be pulling 10 million revenue per show. I wonder if there were clashes with cricket at Optus and Adelaide Oval? And nowhere else suitable to play a big stadium show.

What if I told you Mischa Barton was on neighbours?
Wonder how Paul's career at the Adelaide Crows went?

It's just tricks with the camera. Flat as Holland.

Does anyone here go hiking much? I've just recently discovered the trails out in Bedfordale and Byford, and now I often go for a walk through them before work in the mornings. Yesterday I caught up with an old mate and we did a 12km walk just south of Serpentine. It's been so good for my soul.

Not hiking but I've just got into trail running comps this year. Partly so I can explore parts of Perth I wouldn't normally get to.

Done Jarrahdale and Dwellingup so far. Jarrahdale was pretty cruisy but Dwellingup was pretty tough.

Next one on the calendar is Yanchep in December.

Jon Jones = dominant.

 

[Scatter]

Surely they can get Jon Jones v Tom Aspinal, that would be a great fight.

tom runs through him imo, too fast too powerful

Have a go at Boltthrower for cardio.
I'm a new fan.
Every song has a banging groove that keeps you on the up up and up

That has been said before... I also think he has a good shot. Jones will, as always have the length advantage. Will be a great watch if they can make it happen.

Jones doesn’t seem to want to make that fight happen. I think he’d handle Aspinall myself

SpaceX launch in 2 or 3 mins

I know he didn't invent the term, but I wish Robenberry had put some sort of claim on the word 'Starship' after popularising it.

 

[Paracleet]

Originally I was going to go with a joke based on your Star Trek V "What does God want with a starship?" line here. But I couldn't make it work without *****'s

6PR in strife. Appears that they think Peter Bell is the answer.

Well ABC Melbourne added Bob Murphy to replace Sammy J

Australia off to a great start at Optus against India.
India won the toss and chose to bat first. At lunch India are 4 wickets down for just over 50 runs.

Good to see an Aussie Test pitch moving around on the first day. Hope we offer the same deck to England next year ... we'll bowl them out before lunch (although they'll score at five an over and claim a moral victory).

It's an obvious statement but Hazlewood, Starc, Cummins and Lyon is an absolutely elite quartet.

Bowling's not the issue for Australia though. It'll be interesting to see how the top 6 fare.

 

[Paracleet]

Be interesting to see if it keeps seaming. I think it will with all that grass but with the deck a touch under prepared it may be easier to bat day 2.
