  1. Boost their pay and drop all perks. Corruption/political donations are a bigger concern though imo.
  2. I actually agree with you for the first time ever on this one, however for all the shit that RBB have got away with over the years I don't really care.
  3. Go to downtown Nadi where it's full of Indians if you feel like ruining the vibe
  4. I don't see how it will fold before the W-League does. I'll be going to the Freo vs Footscray game Saturday night instead of watching the derby.
  5. Wonder what all the bogans who jumped on aussie hip hop with Obese Records stickers on the back of their utes think of him
  6. Maybe I should clarify that Im only referring to their news articles, I dont really bother reading the opinion pieces (except Clementine Ford)
  7. Sounds like something that should be supporting my argument.
  8. Well I will completely dismiss sales figures as its a completely senseless way to prove something so subjective. Otherwise we'd probably all have to agree with Telsla on Drake being good. I also don't see why the current rise of the right is relevant, a newspaper shouldn't be pandering to whatever views are on trend for the time. A newspaper should just be reporting the facts in an unbiased and non sensationalist way and I think that The Age does it in a better manner than the Herald Sun does.
  9. Whatever you think of either of the main papers and how downhill theyve gone, they are still both critical for their investigative journalism and keeping organisations/politicians etc honest. Its not like reddit or buzzfeed are going to be cracking cases of corruption.
  10. I wouldn't say thats fool proof at all, maybe The Age started with double the supply in the morning and they both sold the same by lunch. Maybe theres more Liberal voters than there are Labor at that particular newsagent. Maybe Herald Sun have more trashy articles to appeal to the lowest common denominator. More people read Womens Weekly than National Geographic in Australia, that doesnt prove anything about which one is neutral. I always thought The West was a good paper when I lived in Perth, have no idea what its like nowadays though.
  11. Doesnt that apply to everybody? How many Liberal voters stick to the Herald Sun, Andrew Bolt, Today Tonight and Steve Price/Alan Jones etc? Everybody just wants to consume the media that they agree with. The Age isn't perfect but I think its the most neutral newspaper in Victoria and I'm probably one of the very few who pay a subscription for it as I believe it's the only way to help stop media from all turning into buzzfeed. It'll be a scary day when no media outlets have the resources to perform proper investigative journalism.
  12. I asked around all the construction sites in my area about this rumour and all I got in return was 谁他妈的是那
  13. Would have thought this forum would have a little bit more sympathy for heart breaking stories such as Kirstys
  14. Doesnt deserve a first chance. Hes a straight up dickhead. Up there with Archie & Muscat.
  15. CFG are really doing a great job of trying to get me to hate this club
  16. Will be the most important decision CFG have made so far. Another 3 years of mediocrity and under whelming crowds and questions will start to be asked about the value of their investment.
  17. Bleh wrong wording but you get my point
  18. Cyclists do pay through general taxes, just as how I pay for maintenance for your street even though I've never driven on it.
  19. Looking forward to being able to cycle in the middle of a highway and having automatic cars stop for everything I do
  20. Well thats a flawed argument as thats based on cycle paths costing the same as roads to build and maintain which they clearly arent. Much better economically to have people using the cheaper mode of transport. I agree, but I think economics are a valid point to raise when people bring up registration for bicycles which is only going to discourage use of them and push them to more costly forms of transport such as public transport or vehicles.
  21. Yeah I agree its an illogical argument.
  22. Can't he be both? Im not aware of anybody else that is across PT matters as much as he is.
  23. Cyclists save the economy $21 with every bike trip, so I believe the Government should be paying cyclists to go on their bike. http://www.smh.com.au/national/bike-riders-save-economy-21-on-each-commute-20130730-2qxdg.html
  24. The PT guru sums it up here http://www.danielbowen.com/2015/10/23/south-yarra-conundrum/
