Thanks MW,
I might have to give up the netball, too much stress on the old ticker mightn't be any good for me :D :D

I'm a bit concerned though, I had an MRI done recently & the cardio has rung me and asked me to go and visit him tomorrow.
Might need a pacemaker methinks.
We will see.

:lol: yeah leave the netball stress alone mate!
Fingers crossed mate, but from what I hear pacemakers are relatively standard procedures these days. You'll be fine.

As predicted, heart is cactus, need a defibrilator fitted , plus early stages of chronic artery disease.
Big lifestyle changes now, oh well, could be worse hey!

Hopefully it will be smaller than the one on our changerooms wall or you'll look like Jayne Mansfield

Jokes aside, you get one life - time to concentrate on doing the best for your health - Good luck

I'll be watching E while flicking between A and C on in the background.

C

I know Warner will win the Border Medal, TPOTY, ODPOTY and batting trophy + Community Impact Award
Just want to see if he gets the bowling, fielding and wicket keeping ones as well
Plus, he's got to be in the running for the Belinda Clark Medal
Candice might win in the dunny during the evening just to cap off the night

I have to make a decision Monday, a very difficult one that has kept me awake all night several times over the past few weeks.

Appreciate that not everyone will be willing to divulge, but what is your current rate that you're on?

Mine is 1.99%, the term expires in August, started the ball rolling with my broker yesterday.
Via Commbank? Was a great deal. I think the term was four years?

I had 2 year fixed with Citibank at 1.99% - ends May

Check with your accountant

Some things are claimable as annual expenses against your revenue - others to do with buying / selling are a capital expense so you can deduct from the CGT when selling (ie) conveyancing, agent selling fees etc.

I'm not sure about LMI other than to avoid it like the plague......... Biggest rip-off out

Is Daniel Nobes playing at Hope Valley this year?

perhaps someone who has been to training more than me (ie, once :lol: ) can answer that question.

If he is, he's still got a game to run on his suspension in any case, i think

Are there some important votes in Tasmania?

Only blue bloods keeping the Libs alive.

That explains it then Tasmania is very politically competitive, but in the three northern/central Tassie electorates, not in the two in the Hobart area, so I'm not sure there is that much of an electoral incentive to pour money into a Hobart stadium.

The North v South is a bigger problem
I used to manage one of their biggest entities because it had both north and south representatives on the Board and it was better for them that an SA person was managing it

How do you remember that without credit card receipts for every place?

Unfortunately for me (well, in most cases anyway) i always remember everything from the night before.

True - lack of memory allows plausible deniability

In this age of generic but significant club room redevelopment there’s something really nice about north haven and footy how you watched it for decades.

Aside from that a miserable choppy game I like your sentiment Jo but for me who has seen the place 3-5 times a week over the past 15 years it's time for a major renovation/upgrade. The clubs/committees have worked hard to keep the place together with a fair bit of work/renovations themselves to maintain and keep it in a satisfactory condition but ultimately the place is falling apart and it's time for the council/government to come to the party, although from what I understand we are not eligible for any upgrades at this point in time.
How come you aren't eligible at the moment
I could be wrong now but from what I understand the club was still one or two years away from being eligible according to the council (unless that has changed recently). The club did get a grant from the Labor state government for Women's changerooms (which apparently the council were going to match) but nothing has come of that yet. The club has had plans drawn up for both women's changerooms and the whole building in the past but again nothing has come of that.

They have to build the Taj Mahal up the road first

Ben Roberts-Smith
He makes me sick but Kerry Stokes makes me laugh, this quote from last year:
“Ben Roberts-Smith is innocent, deserves legal representation and that it’s scumbag journalists who should be held to account and quote me on that”.
There’s a lot not right here IMO & it definitely doesn’t belong in this thread.

Yes; walk a couple of step in his shoes with people shooting at you and then laugh
Fu**ing despicable

I dont usually watch womens but enjoyed the last quarter
I saw that final free from the front and thought OMG

On a side note, was thinking the other week, it's always tough in our North-East area near Ingle Farm with so many clubs, but this year it's great to see doing well this year - Golden Grove top of D2, Hope Valley top of D3 and Modbury 3rd, Pooraka top of D4, Gepps Cross top of D5 and Kilburn 2nd, Greenacres top of D6, Para Hills top of D7 and Ingle Farm 2nd.

I can't recall a time when all these clubs were at the top of the tree in their respective divisions at the same time.

I have always grouped these clubs into the same "inner north" area:
Kilburn
Gaza
Greenacres
Broadview
Gepps Cross
PNU
Walkerville

All apart from Gepps Cross (EFA) have been A1/D1 powerhouses at some stage
For 30 years, the top 4 swapped players like a Glenelg Vice Presidents party
PNU and Walkerville have always had their own type of players and massive junior programmes

Personal view - I dont think the "Inner North" region has the population to support that many clubs.

Excuse me. We won the 1950 and 1953 A1 flags ;)

My bad - sorry :oops:

That's 2 more than Gepps X and one more than Gaza!

I still like that they are trying to win instead of trying not to lose

Time will tell whether it was worthwhile

Davey working his way through the crossword

If Carey was keeping up would he have left the crease?
No?
Why Not?
BECAUSE HE WOULD HAVE BEEN STUMPED.

I have sympathy both ways here.
The fact he kept in the crease, scratched guard, then left leans me towards it being the wrong decision. If he ducked the bouncer, looked around and walked out to pressure a run, then fair game.

If you look closely, he actually taps the ground with his bat IMO effectively stating "crease" hence why he walked off.
He did it every time he went for a stroll
I watched him at the time and thought he had done the right thing by tapping the ground

On the Starc "catch", I was always taught dont let the ball go anywhere near the grass after you've caught it.
At the time, I thought he could be in trouble with what he did

But I dont, religiously, read the rules

I just watched it again. I’m wrong - this time he didn’t tap down
#### him - he’s out

Refinancing the home loan.

Jesus just went through this.

Came off fixed term, so be it. NAB's variable rate was extortionate, shopped around.

Westpac offered 2% less and $5k cashback.

Took this to NAB and said I'll eat the $5k to save on the paperwork if they could match the rate. They declined to do so.

The level of ******* around has been immense.

I bet NAB rang back later and tried to match

I was with Citi and they have gone to shite since NAB took over so I have moved to ING and credit card to HSBC (frequent flyer points the only consideration)

NAB "Retention" just called me wanting to match and $4k cashback (so they are still offering them)
I had great pleasure in telling them I have no idea what rate I am paying with the new bank. I just dont want to be with NAB

Getting a credit card is getting difficult again

Modbury with a big win out at Unley - Hope valley with another large win they have been pumping those bottom teams all year (good year back in div 3 for valleys)
Not sure if there are any clubs in the league at the moment with as good as depth as modbury sitting top in A,B,C & D grade.

Not 5 1sts but

From what I hear, some couples are put through the wringer when trying to foster kids.
The reasons are very aligned to the problem.

That Liberty on Marion Rd is saving our prices down South, they dont budge when the others put their prices up and they end up having to drop theirs down or get no business, its fantastic to see.

Almost every other industry needs to explain why prices go up except the petrol industry, complete manipulation.

This is why we banned OTR
I go in there for a coffee and hangover sausage roll but never petrol
Great SA company that's an SA market manipulator

What's happening at McLaren. They appeared unbeatable until the last few matches.

Won their 1st 10 matches of the season tho they certainly didn't look unbeatable as they scraped home in a few of them . Copped a few injuries i believe including Ellis who has missed the last few games and that's all it takes to struggle to win games with the comp being so even. They play the 3 bottom teams in the last 3 rounds so should finish top although E Bay in Rd 17 is certainly no certainty at all going on form atm.

I was at McLaren on Saturday
McLaren were missing their midfield - Also too short for VH
VH were very good though - some weapons in the forward lines

Qantas are shite
They may be part of One World but try to get a flight with another airline

Dont get a Qantas or Virgin card. Get a card with several airlines that you can transfer to.

Get an AMEX and a visa/mastercard with someone else - look at this one: https://www.pointhacks.com.au/credit-cards/citibank-prestige-card-guide/

Here you go Trader: everything you need in one website although there are plenty of others: https://www.pointhacks.com.au/

Also look at a payment system for those bills that cant use AMEX: pay.com.au or Sniip. Sniip only does BPay accounts though - pay.com.au does all bills other than gambling etc

I am currently doing a comparison spreadsheet which I'll send to you when finalised

Repeat: Qantas are shite - avoid
