    • RE: All Blacks vs Pumas I

      @KiwiMurph said in All Blacks vs Pumas I:

      On Patty T - for what it is worth he was brilliant against Southland last Friday. His form also got better and better for the Blues as the season went on (a bit like Moala) so not sure what the go is.

      I've heard that Hansen mistakenly thinks he plays for the Hurricanes, hence why he's not selected....

      Ex front rowers who become commentators that get over excited over fat unco blokes running slowly with the ball

      Speaking of front rowers, one little annoyance is a packed stadium yelling out BEAST, every time said beast gets the ball and makes less yards carrying it than Owen Franks....

      Shitty unconvincing win we need to be a lot better then that to win the WC

      No we don’t. All we need to do is win the game. Who really cares how.

      There is a randomness that Garces brings and I’m pleased we dealt with it relatively well. No cards is a big tick for me.

      @BartMan said in RWC: England v New Zealand (SF1):

      I think the only real beating up of the ABs the last few years is Paddies in Chicago and Convicts in Perth. The rest of the losses are just the ABs running out of time to win 😉

      The arrogance of new posters never ceases to amaze.

      😎

      @No-Quarter said in Parenting:

      @ACT-Crusader having 5 kids goes a long way to explaining his repetitive ongoing team selection Dad joke. The dude must be a fucking master at driving his kids insane with the same jokes over and over.

      I might not get 5 laughs every time I tell my dad jokes at home but at least I get 5 upvotes for my AB selections.

      Shout out to @Chris-B @Canerbry @shark @Chris @Stargazer

      Maybe the selectors need to have a good look at Garden Bachop.

      @mariner4life it’s a shame you couldn’t get Blanchfield. Good reliable shooter to play off Oliver and Scotty. Added that mid-range game too. He’s a Qld boy too.

      and where is he? frikken Perth

      Last 5 years he’s been at United, Kings, Hawks and now Perth.

      @mariner4life said in AFL 2021:

      @kiap grass roots AFL is a really scary proposition for other sports. It's very well run, and awash with cash.

      The AFL development programs are awesome. My mate used to run the AFL programs in Canberra and they are a slick machine. I felt for the Raiders and especially the Brumbies because they were getting a lot of interest from what is a rugby/league heartland.

      @mariner4life Oliver has been playing the house down and the more Mike Kelly plays him and Nate together, good things will happen.

      Heal still thinks it’s 1993 and everyone that isn’t out there looking to chest bump their opponent, doesn’t “look interested”.

      @mariner4life said in NRL 2021:

      @bayimports Melbourne are starting to look ominous. Grant is scary good. The one-two punch with Smith is really good. Munster is like a new Wally Lewis. The Pap at the back is in the conversation for the best FB in the game right now. And as usual the pack is doing all the right things.

      All the makings of a massive ANZAC upset or hiding!

    • RE: Coronavirus - Australia

      @voodoo said in Coronavirus - Australia:

      @act-crusader guess my main point is that we in OZ/NZ need to totally rethink our tolerance levels. I've been banging this drum for a long time now, but there should be consistent messaging around tolerable levels of Covod in society post-vaccine. This adherence to elimination is just so foolish

      I agree mate. But the states have made their beds with lockdowns and restrictions. How can they justify doing anything differently now, especially when certain parts of the economy are still in pain from previous lockdowns. The immediate questions will be - “what’s different now?” “Why didn’t you allow us to stay open last time?” Sure they will say ‘health advice’, but to have any actual evidence of the positive effect of the vaccine will take some time for the research, evaluation etc.

      @sparky said in All Blacks 2021:

      @bones Loose Forward trio nothing like as good as when we had Kaino/McCaw/Read, not enough depth at Half Back and in the midfield, but the ABs have lots of very good players available and should be highly competitive this year

      Get stuffed. We can leave that tag line for the Wallabies....

    • RE: Coronavirus - Australia

      @voodoo that might be their thinking, but the reality is that every country that has rolled out the vaccine still have cases. Some in great numbers. My main point is that there is no need to be so hung up with rushing the vaccine rollout whilst there are cases out there.

    • RE: Coronavirus - Australia

      @booboo said in Coronavirus - Australia:

      Mrs Boo had her Astra Zeneca'ed on Thursday.

      Was chatting to the Nurse who said they were getting through just over 100 per day.

      Doing some back of cigarette packet calcs, and assuming their turnover is typical, and Hervey Bay is representative of the population across Straya ...

      ... and assuming their throughput is typical all of the vaccine clinics

      There are 6 clinics in Hervey Bay. That extrapolates to 600/day.

      So to vaccinate our entire population would take 100 days. Which is 20 weeks. Which is 5 months. So September for everyone to get one dose. Repeat for second dose so February for completion.

      Many much assumptions, but the numbers don't yet add up for an October delivery.

      I personally don’t know why there’s so much attention of rushing the rollout given the tolerance level of any case is so low it’s ridiculous.

      Internal border restrictions are instituted at the drop of a hat still.

      And the whole crap about being left behind because other countries are opening seems stupid given the state of cases globally. Again look at what happens when there is one case of transmission. People like to throw out things like herd immunity, but that is not going to stop a McGowan or Anastasia, Dan or Marshall from shutting it down if there are still cases.

      @shark Saturday night at the G, 2nd vs 5th, potential for a massive crowd (60,000+). I guess Sky could show the other blockbuster that’s on at the same time, North vs Freo 😉
