Give me a break!!!!!!!

plenty worse than Disco Murray!...he is tough and plays with heart. Very use stopgap player...

I won't hear a bad word said about him

>[/quote] I am curious as to why though? [/quote] The big 'threats' that day were Tie The Knot, Intergaze and Sky Heights from memory. Jockey error/complacency on all three counts gifted Childs an easy lead and he was still unchallenged at the 'school'. Unheard of in a Cox Plate. Yes, she bolted in....

"Just by my own terminology I would place quality just below greatest of all time." If you'd have said this at the start, we'd have saved quit a bit of too-ing and fro-ing...obvioulsy an issue of semantics...we might have been on the same page RE Makybe Diva all along...all good. Still dis...

Please define "troll" for me?

hahhaa...mate you are just tying yourself in knots here. Boncer: "Of course they need to but most of the suggestions in the report would wipe farmers out." One minute you are telling me I fail to quote...but above is exactly what you said. I'm really struggling to follow your logic.... By...

First of all can you learn to quote? And second I like how you ridicule me for saying it will wipe farmers out but then in the next breath state that of course some business will probably have to go. If you're going to troll me at least don't contradict yourself. And before you jump down my throat w...

I never said 'larger' win..I said easier. 8 wide on the bend under a hold...might have won by a length but horse that ran second was a two-time winner and second in a Caulfield Cup... I am not going to argue this with you any further...I've been watching races VERY closely for 20 years and she was ...

Lol let me focus on the Cox plate first. Never seen a larger win you say? Did you happen to see Sunline in 2000? Had it clear by the bend by about 3 lengths and won by 7-8 lengths. Diva hit the front in the straight and won by a length. Her time was also the slowest since they changed the distance, ...

There is a lot of work to be done in this area. We do need to focus on more sustainable/higher output farming. We also need to look after the people on the land. Farming could be the only area where we can sustain a competitive export advantage. First step should be to put together incentives to ch...

It doesn't. Of course they need to but most of the suggestions in the report would wipe farmers out. Whats the point of the implementing the changes if its going to wipe them out? What about compensation? How about we give them help? And I'm not demonising Science. Rubbish argument to say I am.[/quo...

Not sure if you are aware of the notion of Tragedy of the Commons, but have a look (I'm not trying to be patronising in saying that)...[/quote] Mate your response to me basically said, "Country people need to listen to the scientists. They dont know nothing." People that live on the land a...

Apologies for any major omissions...special mentions to Grand Archway and Spartacas

She was an icon, but agree with your sentiment Bonce[/quote] I admitt the Diva was a quality horse. I dislike the bullshit surrounding her though eg. "Greatest of all time" Complete Crap.[/quote] Quality horse? Think you'll find she was more than a 'quality horse' champ...not sure what you...

Anyone else on here like to wet a line?

People in the Murray darling basin could start by respecting the view of the scientists who have done the Those who make a living off the land are not going to walk away from their farms just because inner-city types who make their living in inner-city occupations feel that it is a good idea for th...

sounds like the work of Ivan milat

hahaha...fair dinkum? that's gold...any idea if they are still mates...as Ealsey said, it was hardly a punch on...more like a massage!

That is the problem...it is not about free speech and the like...[/quote] Just wondering where abouts do you call home? Roughly?[/quote] I live in Malvern. Not sure what the relavance of that is, or what your insinuation is. Perhaps something along the lines that I have no appreciation or understand...

That incident also once again highlighted what a f****** Justin Murphy was, had been traded from Carlton to Geelong by Carlton at the end of the previous season, but despite this, when Silvangi went down he acted like he was still a Carlton player, shaking his head in disgust and shooting dirty loo...

Metallica, Iron Maiden and Pink Floyd are the top 3...all awesome for different reasons..depending on what 'mood' I am in..
