^^ I disagree with every point made in this post. If we 'go it alone', we'll fall into a bigger hole. I also get the feeling that you're from Sydney.

I don't think they would have fared so well against disciplined opposition.

Yes, I realise that there are a tonne of products. I happen to own a polo shirt for that reason. As for the difference, yes, they are replicas and not an exact facsimile of the player issue jerseys, but I wouldn't be calling the football on the coat of arms a big difference. More of a...

You mean the jersey that the Australian test team wears for every other test.

'Forced to socialise'. There's where you fall flat. Find the other son, and spend the rest of the night holding up the bar. Problem solved. As for the ceremony, the smartphone was designed with boring weddings in mind. Just follow the cricket/rugby/curling scores and away you go. If your...

Yeah, something retro like this would be pretty sweet. Might also remind us of the mindset required to win rugby games. So long as we don't fall into the trap of lying back and thinking of Horan and Little.

So you're saying you wouldn't even rock up just to get on the cans? Society really is decaying. If anyone needs me, I'll be at Waverley Oval admiring the picket fence.

Cue the nervous coughing and shuffling of papers

Missing footy for the snow, having weddings in winter. This is surest sign of the decay of society. Next it will be the Vandals sacking the lower north shore.

It's like a scene from Casino or something

He has epic dirt on Coxy!

So according to that graph, our ranking can go back up to 'slightly less shit'. Except I don't see that happening. The problem is not with the cattle, it's with the coaching set-ups at each province. We aren't fit enough, our skills are sub-par, and we cannot kick. Next season we'll have...

I wondered how anyone could possibly complain about the ref after a 40-12 drubbing. I just got my answer!

So again, you're suggesting that we shake up the current model by basically doing more of the same, but have this ratified by the ARU/state unions, at the largesse of school fee paying families and Federal funding? I think you'll find that you'll be seeing Aussie Rules at the Hawker Stand much...

Firstly, the avatar is Dave Graney. Secondly, what you're suggesting is that the ARU 'growth model' should consist of expensive private schools driving growth. And you're telling me to look forwards not backwards.

Mac Uni??? I'm just cleaning coffee from my monitor.

Great, so we're framing schoolboy scholarships in a Machiavellian, realpolitik, Gordon Gecko fight against the AFL and the mungos. Before I tee off, I like the idea that the GPS scholarships allow talented footballers from disadvantaged backgrounds opportunities that they don't otherwise have...

Makes sense. They need to stay ahead of the game, which means scouting the best talent, wherever that may be. It just so happens that Australia brings their best schoolboy talent into one place each year. Great for scouting. Bear in mind that Nemani Nadolo came through the Australian system.

FUCK! FINALLY! Someone recognises the most glaring deficiencies in the national game! Manifested in what is meant to be our most talented state squad. Our in field kicking is atrocious. To be able to argue that Quade Cooper's kicking in general play is better than the test team's 10 and...

Not sure that either the Qld Government or the residents of Herston and Kelvin Grove would be thrilled with that.
