MY BREAKING NEWS
A high profile member of the Opposition was spotted entering this establishment earlier on.
Unnamed sources say she tried to instigate Foreign Relations with some patrons but was rejected out of hand on the grounds that she was a bit rough looking. When pressed further the patrons said they had been drilling in the desert for 6 months and hadn’t realized how far the town had gone downhill . Luckily for them they are off to Halls Creek where they say scrubbers like that one are not welcome.
THE PUB 
That’s exactly what I was thinking of, Fiona. I actually had the image of somebody else on his front bench when I wrote that – but it would be uncharitable to say exactly which one.
victoria,
Cronulla hasn’t managed the situation at all. They are in an appalling state financially, in the middle of a huge project, no sponsors, no chairman for a few years now and the one person who should have been on deck at this time of the season is overseas.
They let the crisis roll over them rather than managing the message. From what I am hearing the players have had more to do with ‘managing’ the situation than the club itself.
There are more clubs to come. Hope they heed the lesson of how not to handle a crisis.
[Liberal party identity Nick di Girolamo has been lobbying on behalf of the company behind a controversial $800 million coal mine proposal which Premier Barry O’Farrell is accused of changing his attitude towards after coming to power.]

Gee we must have some dumb living over here in the West. In the week where Colin told the people that live in the Swan Valley, he has no long term transport plan for them, also 3 billion dollars worth of his promises are dependent on The Federal Government, they are still going to voter fo his party anyway. If I was the PM, He would be told there is no money available, and maybe he should fund it out of the Pork Barreling for Regions fund.
Can somebody explain to me why they are accusing Labor/Gillard of racism regarding the 457s?
I honestly don’t understand why it was terrible for the PM to say that if an Australian can do the job, they should get priority.
Or is it because Abbott didn’t say it that it was criticised?

Cronulla have been piss poor, but what are the NRL heirarchy doing to assist? People whinge about the AFL, but in comparison their professionalism sticks out like the proverbial.
The sporting codes need to be cleaned up. The integrity of the sport demands it. There is going to be serious short term pain for long term pain
victoria,
From what I am hearing they are flat stick and under reasourced due to the issue being so widespread.
C@t,
The only way to look at that blogger is through the definition of the handle he chose: i.e confused, bewildered, befuddled, engrossed, stupified.
He is also the sort of character who, once having expressed his opinion among his peers, cannot bring himself to admit he could possibly be wrong or have misjudged. So, there is no evidence however glaring that will ever bring about a change in his stance.

c@tmomma,
His value as a commentator is nil. His value as a human being is nil. As such if I never hear his BS or name again I wll consider it no great loss.

THE federal government says the latest figures for 457 visa applications back the need for a crackdown, with almost 10 per cent more applications and 6.6 per cent more visas granted.

Sharks captain Paul Gallen says his players are determined to play for “the five people that are no longer here” http://bit.ly/10jrMX5 #NRL
Meanwhile here in the suburbs of Melbourne, a full scale bikie war is on the brink of breaking out. That is all we bloody need!!!!
I should have added, remember the ACC report into Sport, mentioned links to organised crime and bikie gangs. I dont believe in coincidences…….

Yes, he seems invested in his BS. I don’t know how he finds the time. Love the way he blames everyone else for the fights he causes. Like a spoiled child he doesn’t understand that continuously whinging is passive aggression. He needs to take responsibility for the tone he sets.
This is going to make Tony Abbott’s all-expenses-paid-by-the -taxpayer Pollie Pedal look a bit weak.

Tony’s pedalling for the cameras versus Tim in leathers roaring down the highway with a pack of 50 other bikers. No wonder Uncle Rupert has rushed in to sling a bit of mud at Tim. He can’t have his boy being upstaged.
NEW THREAD and would everyone please revert to inter-blog civility.
