Lol don’t try to pretend you were just talking about military intervention, you were specifically referring to sanctions as well!

Would love to see it if you can find it. They can barely seem do anything with a technical majority, let alone when McConnell’s in charge!

The Democrats are pathetic, but the US is drifting towards minority rule. When you said the Dems could have stopped the Amy Coney Barrett nomination, what did you mean?

It’s now taking up a case involving what power the states can have over federal elections. 2024 should be fun!

All round great guy, but I assume if Robins left for whatever reason then he’ll be taking Viveash with him, so it’s all about MR’s contract status really.

Well everyone agrees with that, which is why the new system is built the way it is. I also think people need to be encouraged to attend away matches, especially the less glamorous ones, if only for the sake of generating good away support for the team. For that reason, I’m glad the team is...

Amazing that John Goodman would just put his number out there like that, must be loads of fans of The Big Lebowski or Monsters Inc who’ll try to call.

Well I’m floating it in response to someone suggesting that people who don’t contribute to the playing budget shouldn’t receive any credit. If that’s the only yardstick by which we’re judging fans then it’s pretty clear that the highest rollers at the CBS are the most deserving of tickets. And...

If budget contribution is the only consideration then we should either give priority to those who spend the most on home tickets (I’m sure some corporate packages cost more for a single game than my season ticket does) or just auction off access to away games to the highest bidder. Sound fair?

Yes, but that’s obviously not the only consideration when it comes to deciding who should follow the team away from home. If it was, we could just give away the ticket priority with every prawn sandwich in the CBS corporate areas and be done with it.

Well it’s obviously not going to be the exact same playbook, given China’s extreme leverage over everyone, but the message they want to send is that the West will stand firm behind an invaded territory, even if it comes at major economic cost to all concerned.

Tbh I think the prevailing view in the Biden WH is that China is much more of a threat than Russia, and a lot of the US response to the Ukraine invasion is all about signalling to China what will happen if it tries something similar with Taiwan.

Because they’re supporting the team?

You’ve got to have Stockdale, Panzo, and the tall guy from Solihull in there.

Out of interest, what was this mechanism you speak of that the Dems could have used to block the Coney Barrett nomination?

History suggests it won’t be easy in that case.

Who could possibly have predicted this

Can they? Surely it’s the kind of thing that’s incumbent on the player himself to work on, not sure how you’d coach someone into having desire or application - this isn’t Rocky.

Ahh the genius Philosorapter system strikes again Why sign McCallum when you already have Josh Reid? I’m sure we could get Jordan Thompson back for cheaper as well - why did we ever let him go?
