I know its cool to hate on Tim in here but bad move by the club. He was better at scoring from open play than Fornaroli last season. The fans love him especially the kids, every time he came on on or ran past the crowd while on the bench he got a massive cheer. Keeps the club narrative going that Melbourne City cannot be trusted when it comes to big name signings, first Villa not hanging around now Tim. Will kill any chance of a membership boost in the future based on signing players.

Looked like the ball was out when Malik's boot went high

A Fornaroli and McCormack partnership could be great. Fornaroli is great in open play and McCormack is fantastic with free kicks and penalties

I have no problem helping to pay for things by tolls but why is it only acceptable that this applies to roads? Try adding a Medicare co-payment and you are evil. Tolls are really co-payments and they should apply to (virtually) everything the government supplies. If the public cannot see enough value in the service to help pay for it, then the government shouldn't be paying for it.

I had a 30th last night. I then made the mistake of waiting up to 12:30 to watch the game on replay on Foxtel. What a waste of time.

I don't think anyone could say Kim Jong puts his country first.

He's been pretty true to his word on what he planned on. He's stood up to North Korea. And as @thisphantomfortress said he's been fairly small government

Possibly it would stem the loss of votes to One Nation and the Conservatives but I think the support he used to have within the parliamentary party has dried up. It would make sense for the next person to bring him back into cabinet though. I think if he sees Malcolm go he will be happy enough.

Turnbull's time is up. He lost a cabinet decision on the citizenship audit "check-up report" and now James Campbell the Herald Sun journo who has been one of his cheerleaders has effectively called time on him. The only question now is who will take over and when. My guess he will wait and if the SSM survey gets up once parliament then passes SSM, he will resign with that being his victory. The 'who' is the harder question: Julie Bishop has declined in support. Scott Morrison has lost support of the conservatives and is tainted by the Turnbull budgets. Peter Dutton may be seen as too inexperienced or not enough of a media performer. That's about it for likely candidates though.

One year since the Trump victory. I was not a Trump fan (Carson, then Rubio for me) but I have to admit he has done a much better job than I expected.

Fitzy wasn't manning up

Nil all in the Melbourne derby

Not lost their majority. They had 76 out of 150 Now they have 75 out of 149 If Barnaby loses the bye-election (highly unlikely) then they will have lost their majority.

That is all

Never mind...

Get Bruce off and Timmy on

Is Ange trying to tank qualification? Another job lined up? Betting against us?

I've always hated Nike. The sooner we dump them the better.

Depends if those that installed him are willing to stick to their decision and lose by keeping him there. The problem is lack of viable alternatives. Anyone associated with Turnbull is tainted. And no one else who has a high profile has been seen to have an alternative vision other than Abbott and the left won't be willing to go back to him. Dutton could be an alternative but that's about it.

I'm surprised that people are surprised by this. ANTIFA and the rest of the Alt-Left have become increasingly violent over the last few years. When the media refuses to cover their stories it condones their violence

I'm surprised they included a heart react

Hasn't moved for us in the last week and a half.

It takes 6-8 weeks for the bones to heal fully. Add likely ligament damage, getting fit again, and strength and conditioning. I think 12 weeks would be the minimum. Takes us to the start of December

You don't publish stuff that will hurt you. Low membership numbers discourages others from joining up.

I've never understood the big deal with foreign donations. Are we saying its wrong for foreign companies and people to donate because their donation may influence the politician but its okay for Australian companies and people to donate because their donations don't influence the politician?
