Anyone listening to ABC radio???
Best quote ever, "Josh McCrone prefers to player hooker, BUT, Raiders fans LOVE seeing McCrone in the #7." :shock: :? :woot:

Followed up with this "... Wighton experiment at 6 wasnt good, I think McCrone and Campo is a great pairing..." :shock: :? :woot:

WOW!!!

Lots of Harlem Globetrotters comments, and "who is this" too?!?!

Son, we live in a world that has forums, and those forums have to be guarded by Mods. Who's gonna do it? You? You, Nickman? I have a greater responsibility than you can possibly fathom. You weep for Lucy, and you curse GE. You have that luxury. You have the luxury of not knowing what I know -- that GE’s moderation, while tragic, probably saved lives; and my existence, while grotesque and incomprehensible to you, keeps threads on track and under the appropriately sized, highlighted green headings.
You want moderation because deep down in places you don't talk about at parties, you want me on that forum -- you need me on that forum. We use words like "stay on topic," "use the appropriate forum," "please delete." We use these words as the backbone of a life spent defending something. You use them as a punch line. I have neither the time nor the inclination to explain myself to a man who rises and sleeps under the blanket of the very moderation that I provide and then questions the manner in which I provide it. I would rather that you just said "thank you" and went on your way. Otherwise, I suggest you get a green handle and edit a post. Either way, I don't give a DAMN what you think about moderation.

So what was the go with Brenko Lee walking off the field. Had a replacement player actually run on?

Because he saw play come towards him and he reacted to it, but then stopped short of actually re-entering the field of play.

Sami and Tupou are twins.

The spiral of silence refers to the idea that when people fail to speak, the price of speaking rises. As the price to speak rises, still fewer speak out, which further causes the price to rise, so that fewer people yet will speak out, until a whole culture or nation is silenced. This is what happened in Germany.

If you do not speak, you are not being neutral, but are contributing to the success of the thing you refuse to name and condemn.

A sub came on the other side, they just didn't number up afterwards

Bit weird to do it mid defensive set though

Commentary said that a player came on from the other side.

Apparently the call came from the sideline for him to go off. Edwards came on on the opposite side of the field.

Great win today. If we play like that we are competitive with most teams... Proves we don't need a wholesale clear out, but there are some key positions which need fixing.

Both wingers today had a shocker. We need Cornish at 7 and dare I say it (based solely on today) campo at 6. Buttiste might turn out and ok combo also.

Good thing is we do have outside backs coming through the grades.
