Paseka is great, he has really come on. His output down over the past two weeks though, might be a sign circumstances are starting to bite.
Point 3: I hope you are right
With the Sea Eagles paralysed by flawed logic, Dessie could simply up and walk
Gday kk. Even so, the list isn’t as bad as the results show. Whatever it is, they’re just not motivated, for me that’s worse than losing.

Thanks for the upper cut – trying to contact the powers to run the update. I’ll tidy my room too. ????

Sure is. I’d post a photo of a ticket if I knew how.

Thanks Tony, appreciated.

Thanks EJ. No doubt the coach has lost his spark and it has filtered through. I’m not sure if Paul Green is the answer either – we’ll see how that pans out.

Thanks mate – I’ll get onto it.

Happy Easter HY – spot on re your salary cap thoughts. That’s what I was getting at, once that year passed they were well placed to get things in order.
I hate the smell of canvas, reminds me of camping and wild boars!!

Forward pass technology already exists: Video replays and a little common sense
As always Tim, good rant. But I’ve got to say, if your team scores 31 points and comes second, they have bigger fish to fry than the refs.
Injuries, injuries. Tell me, was there a man still on the bench in the closing stages while a busted Scott was left to fend for himself?
The pass, text book parallax, play on.

Howland was small, the Whippet was a nippy speedster in the Kerry Boustead mould. According to footy card stats: Howland 173cm, 76kg in 2001. Boustead 173cm, 73kg in 1981.
Great read Barry. One of my favourites was Sam Isemonger, whole hearted tackling machine who battled through many injuries.
The forgotten players: Cronulla-Sutherland Sharks
So you only like political involvement in sport when it’s convenient for your sheltered life. The fact Adelaide and the SA govt in conjunction with CA gave first class cricket the opportunity to start the season counts for nothing in your eyes. Sounds like your only concern is the big $$ end of cricket, nothing wrong with that, but please spare us your naive sentiment.
Bollocks to social distancing, we’re off to the SCG
So CA doesn’t have a stakeholder engagement plan inclusive of all state governments across Australia? Was it your idea to kick off the Shield season in Adelaide or did it happen by chance? Tell me more about this fantasy world you live in.

Great call. Looked like Roger Harper had him covered, sweet strike, thankfully not straight enough to intercept the umpire.
Bollocks to social distancing, we’re off to the SCG
To think sport and politics don’t mix is fanciful. I mean have a look at the SCG Trust, not uncommon to have ex State premiers on the books and other political mouthpieces the likes of Alan Jones navigating the way. To build or not to build at ANZ and the SFS were important State election voting points. Now there’s a pandemic and you think CA are up to going solo, c’mon.

Thanks Paul, nothing wrong with cheap laughs to open the year, Mitcher just adding to the colour.
Bollocks to social distancing, we’re off to the SCG
I appreciate your honesty Mitcher. Best wishes for 2021.
Bollocks to social distancing, we’re off to the SCG
But we want those we vote for to have political influence, don’t we? In the case of COVID, I wonder if national guidelines as opposed to the States would reduce confusion.

Those in lock down wont have a Test to go to, but should they have a choice – strange indeed.
NRL a good point, really need lower grades operating too. Big ask requesting players to cover injuries without games under their belt.
Bollocks to social distancing, we’re off to the SCG
That’s the problem, I’m not sure which is the bad look now, the northern beaches lockdown or 50% at the SCG.
Bollocks to social distancing, we’re off to the SCG
Does that include the eastern state wannabes???

Turbo caught me out too. Although with 3 brothers, not so sure he’s the middle child.
