No I wasn't taking exception to what you said. 2017 Force had 3 very good complimentary 10's and all very accurate goal kickers, in Lance, Grant and Prior. 3 very good young energetic wingers in Penni, Newsome and Verity Amm Aust OC in Rona On field leadership in Hodgo, Taf, Tessmann and Prior...

no not correct, AFL rules are completely incomprehensible to some one who has not been brought up with the game or become a student of it. For a start the players are spread all over the ground, what other major sport does this? They just have a local comp, a draft, long term tribalism from...

yes absolutely, but I think clone also had a particular problem with twiggy from when previously he didn't get a job he applied for with Twiggy.

you only got the Force forwards, the Captain and most of the backline went elsewhere. The problem seems to be the backs.

yes slim and BH the decline started a long time ago, but at this key juncture you could not have had a worse person in charge. Clone had the the solution to Aust rugby's problems asking to help but his arrogance, ego and blind loyalty to his agenda and Melb mates had him not only refuse but also...

Yeah, even if he was called he would have some patsy to take the fall for him, like pulver. IMO he is very cunning, seems very careful not to put his name to or on anything from emails to texts or deal directly with anyone not in the purple circle like lawyers etc. I bet he only communicates...

assuming it's the same Nick Marvin we are talking about, he works for Twiggy so is unlikely to be available any time soon. In fact he is probably working to have his rugby competition be ultra competitive versus Super rugby. Another part of clyne's legacy, a formidable competitor.

IMO A good starting point would be a person with integrity. Someone like that would be miles ahead of the current mob. But then, usually people hire like people so that is unlikely to happen at management or board level.

IMO "The lady doth protest too much, methinks" Throw away the shovel BH. You have the outcome that by your words you supported and continue to support. You have got your preferred self serving Chairman, your preferred Team and its continuing debt. You have alienated and tried to kill the 3rd...

no, RA had cox on ice, he wanted out before having to start using his own money. All they had to do was make a deal with him to take the licence because the vru didn't have the money. Instead they orchestrated a deal for vru to take the licence via the put. They provided the Deed of Amendment...

no, rugby will just continue to be a under achieving poor cousin to netball.

who has ever mentioned jail? Without sitting on the fence, you either support the clyne outcome that we have now or you supported an outcome that probably would have secured the future of Aust rugby. RA would still be in charge but with someone making sure they were accountable but also...

Braveheart will be brokenheart

what self respecting French restaurant has vegan options? maybe as you say!

yeah I agree it was difficult to get a good coffee in the US, even in Seattle the so called coffee capital. In saying that though good coffee in Aust is not all that common. I think we have an over inflated opinion of ourselves and our achievements.

And btw Braveheart knowing of your love affair with clyne, a RA with the Force and Twiggy would be very different to your RA with the rebels and clyne (even a RA with the Force, the rebels and Twiggy but no clyne would be vastly more positive) Clyne just forced through his agenda regardless of...

just bouncing along the bottom of the chart, in companies this can go on for years before it either breaks up or dies. While there is still enough money to limp along nothing will change. Change is expensive and could bring about the end quickly, no CEO wants that on their record when they can...

yes, but we also need to protect that freedom from those who would take it away. These are groups who if they could would make it difficult at best for reasonable people to carry on their life. Unfortunately the biggest threat medium to longer term are religious organisations.

interestingly Hooper and Pocock seem to be morphing into each other, trying to replicate each others strong points. My guess is soon one of them is going to do himself out of a job. In saying that I barely watch any super rugby now, just gathered from snippets.

I was thinking we could encourage Qantas to have electronic counters on the outside of their planes, progressively showing the number people beheaded that year for crimes that would not be a crime here. Maybe RA could have a ceremonial(fake) beheading of the captain of the last super team to...
