  5. I can think of only one genuine reason why. That is, that privately they are not confident that a plebiscite would return a "yes." Given the reports I have seen on opinion polls on the issue, I can't see why they would not have that confidence.

  6. Half a team? We've got two, maybe three signings left to make. Pretty much the same as everyone else. The sky is not falling.

  8. Watched the game. Created the first two goals himself. Amongst the best players on the pitch. I haven't gotten so into a neutral match like that in a long time.

  12. Absolutely correct. That is why the activists are opposed to letting the people vote.

  13. What is worrying is how the club is willing to have half a team this late - every season. Particularly considering we are now well into the FFA cup. What would have happened if we were drawn against a full A-League team aka the Victory Roar game?

  14. I think people are being extremely naive in thinking being a politician has anything to do with doing what's best for the people you represent.

  15. Really? Come on. the various people running the game here before frank had run it in to the ground and it was at a pro level at deaths door. I know you are old enough and game aware enough to know that. Frank led the recovery, including ending "the glory days of Oceania" & getting us into the World Cup again (he hired Hiddink). He's still pouring his company's money into the game too. the game might be bigger than 1 person, but everyone else in authority before he came along seemed hell bent on a self serving agenda.. itseasy to criticise someone in authority but when you look at what he achieved you have to applaud

  17. Petrillo seems like the sort of guy back in School that when he chose teams he would just choose his mates, no matter if they were good, bad or injured

  18. My take on Bob Hawke. Hawke's gift was that people liked him, not the concept of him, but him. He had an incredible popularity (think Kevin Rudd) except unlike Rudd was approachable beneath the facade. As prime minister history will show that he was at his best when the abrasive Paul Keating was his treasurer. Keating was seen as pushing through the tough reforms the country needed, whilst Hawke made it seem palatable to enough to say in power. When he and Keating split, he became a nothing PM (& Keating likewise was nothing without him as well). Hawke oversaw some tough reforms when Australia was struggling. He was pro reform and got his union mates to toe the line. One thing Hawke was strong on was he governed for all Australians, not just those who voted for him. He had his flaws of course, but overall he made a decent fist of a tough job.

  19. IMO - despite my political leanings - it's unfair to point the finger only at the Labor Party in terms of who's in bed with whom. IMO we need completely open and transparent disclosure of all political donations, affiliations and sponsorships etc. Quite frankly I no longer trust any of our politicians to be free of vested interests of some form or another. IMO our political system is broken and needs a major overhaul.

  26. Everyone but you is a multi of me. You and I are the only two people who use this forum, I create many multis with varying personalities and opinions to give the illusion of a populated website just to fuck with you.
