    Quite the image: the Buddha surrounded by acolytes in small chairs, all from Ikea.

    Please tell me, o Enlightened One. I have come to listen at your feet, fearing not the scourge of old socks.

    Ah yes, David Lewis - I have his book on what he calls modal realism. I cannot but feel that it is pointless to argue something is true if (a) you can't prove it is, and (b) you can't prove it isn't. Only one thing is certain: we just have one awareness so any other hypothetical universes...

    And an empty echo chamber awaits the Roar yet again. Honestly, what a shambles they are.

    All the stats for racing shows cratering interest. Those viewing stats are absurd. You really have to wonder about their figures being cooked.

    ALM TV Ratings

    Bear in mind the ratings system is beyond a joke and does not account for streaming. It is a statistically absurd measuring system invented so the commercial television industy can sell time to the advertising agencies. Everyone in the industry knows it's a joke but as there is nothing else...

    Exactly. There was a time I could attend games and I loved it. That was Suncorp in the Ange era... Didn't realise how lucky I was

    That's unfair to jellyfish and I apologise to the jellyfish community. Unlike APL, jellyfish have an organised nervous system.

    The fact is that under their watch media coverage has gone from minimal to non existent. Ffs we have CFG in our corner! We have muscle. So why does the APL show all the spine of a jellyfish?
