It’s a quality issue I’m asking about.-PJ- wrote: ↑October 8, 2024, 5:58 pm I need some advice..
I’m going to get myself a brand new 1989 Woodgers retro jersey. There’s a few places to purchase the jersey, Peter Wynns, NRLshop.com, etc.
What I’ve noticed is the jersey from Peter Wynns has the “classic” football shaped badge above the NSWRL embroided patch and the jerseys from other online places don’t.
Any difference here ? All 1989 retro jerseys I’ve seen look great with this one minor difference.
Classic sportswear OR some mob called Tidwell clothing.

Most likely fakes, quality will be fine other than the material will be poly cotton/synthetic **** vs real cotton and not breathe.

All the jerseys I’ve see across numerous online shops are in the $129-$140 range.
Some tell me their jerseys are 60%poly and 40%cotton, others don’t give me that much detail.

Re: Off topic
Done a bit of digging, Tidwell seem to have the licence to reproduce the retro jerseys as they're doing a wide range of clubs.
Could be older stock with Wynn's I have a Milk remake that was made by Classic

I was taking a late evening walk on Wanniassa hill in the dark (I’ve been doing backwards walking up hills for my old knees) and I saw a red aurora.
AMAZING!
I presume expert photographer’s will have some amazing pictures tomorrow.

Re: Off topic
The crew member of a bulk carrier moored off Newcastle who fell overboard has been rescued by a couple of fisherman. He spent 19hrs floating in the ocean and is damn lucky the sharks didn’t get him.
Here’s what I reckon is suss.
He was found with a plastic bag tied to his waist. The bag contained his passport, wallet and a pack of ciggies, he was also wearing a life jacket.
He fell overboard at 11-30pm Thursday night. I reckon he was keen to become a citizen and misjudged the distance to shore. Floated 8kms south and was rescued at Blacksmiths Beach.

Just had half a bottle of Schild Estate Angus Brae Shiraz and have to say that was an unbelievably rich and deep wine.
I’ve been into Pinot Noir these last few years, but this huge Barossa Shiraz was incredible.
Counting down to enjoying the other half of the bottle tomorrow night.

George Smith is coaching my younger son's rugby team.
Watching someone who has been at the absolute peak of the game is just ..... different.
Toughest preseason ever, just quietly

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.

I’m assuming you know this because they’re sending out puff pieces to the parents about dragging large trees behind them and such?

Re: Off topic
The Woolworths strike is really starting to drag on. About 2 weeks now and all Woolworths in my area have less stock than they did during Covid. It's ridiculous
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.

I thought you were boycotting Woolworths because of some sort of Australia Day shenanigans.

Haha, I did. But then, they had no stock which forced people to use Coles and Harris Farm, so the flow on effect is real.
