    How to fix the wallabies

    Well, you'd hope for that, but there's no better training for clinging, limpet like, to an undeserved position than the classic ARU prep career of GPS-BCOM-Bank-Boardroom.

    How to fix the wallabies

    I suspect that we'd just recalibrate our shitness so as to get beaten consistantly by a worse team. In fact, given that the entire Administration structure of Aussie rugby appears to have spent the last 12 years working consistently to make us worse, I'd argue that forcing our players to...

    Bledisloe 1 - Wallabies vs All Blacks, ANZ Stadium, Sydney, 8:05pm

    Had to record it as I was in transit; what the fuck did I just watch? Actually, I know exactly what I just watched. The English football team. A collection of reasonably talented players (on paper at least) who, having never previously met one another, show up 15 minutes before a pivotal...

    Spirits thread

    Yeah, I saw that on Kickstarter a while ago and I don't get it. Ignoring questions about the validity of their claims, fresh and matured oak staves have been available for decades - they cost about $20 a bag retail, and they are used in massive commercial quantities to age crap spirits and...

    Spirits thread

    Yeah, it's one to keep under lock and key. Great stuff though.

    Spirits thread

    If you are a fan of the Three Wood, I recommend you get your hands on some Lagavulin Distillers Edition; virtually unpeated (unlike it's 16 year stable mate) and rocking a shitload of PX deliciousness.

    Spirits thread

    I'm quite keen to get down to one of the Four Pillars distillery tours (https://www.fourpillarsgin.com.au/meeting/distillery-experience-sat-22-nov/) Anyone given one a go before?

    The Climate Change Thread

    I don't understand the fuss about a pause. Short term variations in climate trends show up regularly in historical climate data. Basically all it amounts too is a flattening of the rate of surface temperature increase in measured temperate regions and, according to a few (but not all)...

    I've not presided over any major accounting scandals, though it's possible that's primarily due to lack of opportunity.

    Fuck it. I'm prepared to take one for the team; I'll coach the Wallabies. My CV; I'm a cantankerous, dictatorial bastard who dislikes virtually everyone and who can't play. While I am aware that my inability to play rugby in any meaningful way might count against me, it is important to...

    Can we all agree that no one wants to see the Parrot again. I just think we should get that clear before he starts inserting himself into the slow motion detonation that is our media situation. I hear enough of him in cabs.

    Wallabies v All Blacks @ Suncorp - 18/10/14

    Fuck it'd be nice to expect we'd bring home games like this, rather than biting chunks out of my beer bottle, waiting for disaster to happen. A good selection of shithouse options in the last 5.

    Waratahs vs Crusaders 2014 Super Rugby Grand Final

    The Merch tent thing was particularly irritating; My members scarf and jersey were out of action, and I would have gladly flung money at them from something properly themed. As it happened the best I could do was a blue hoody and a Wallabies scarf.

    Waratahs vs Crusaders 2014 Super Rugby Grand Final

    Fucking hell. i've still got an irregular heartbeat. Awesome win by the boys, and an absolutely barnstorming game of rugby. Saders really took it to us. I was at the far end of the ground and I completely thought Foley had missed that the winning penalty by dropping it short. Ive been getting...

    I'm out. Duty has called, as is it's unfortunate habit.

    G&GR player of the year : Wales

    I thought Haven't and Seen played really well, but the surprise for me was Thegameyet. A lot of people have said he's just too small to be an effective 8, but last night sure showed otherwise. HM to I'llwatchit and Onreplay - what a center pairing. I thought Later and Tonight were great, but...

    2011 G&GR Sydney Christmas get-together drinks

    I've been a little light on the posting of late, but I could be persuaded to sink a Christmas beer or 10.
