Convicts are one of the types of Aussies. The post WW2 European migrants who set up football clubs are another type. $8.5M (admittedly more than “a few million”) gets you something pretty nice like this: https://www.austadiums.com/stadiums/woy-woy-oval/photos I reckon that’d be a good...

Is this another Preston Boys banner?

I daresay Souttar would expect to start at Cagliari, in which case it's not such a bad idea.

I think it's more that 30% of Australian citizens were born overseas. Argentina vs Spain in the world cup final is going to be a much more enticing fixture than Australia v Turkiye to the over 1 million English and Indian Australian residents, for example.

I wonder how many hours those Wanderers fans spent drawing then painting that massive dick? Feels a bit homoerotic if you ask me.

Great news! From that press release: "The prolific young striker has an exceptional record in front of goal, with 48 goal contributions to his name for Sunderland in 67 appearances." That's an outstanding record, surely the kid's got a real future?

Flying is my favourite. It means I'm going on holiday somewhere. I just sit there for however many hours watching movies while people are contractually obliged to bring me alcohol and work can't bother me. It's a million times better than going to work!

Grounded in reality? That's an interesting take to say the least.

It's the hottest ever summer in the UK (and probably also the coolest for the rest of our lifetimes) and Burnham's first policy is to announce an increase in fossil fuel extraction. The short-sightedness of politicians is so depressing.

You seem to have a pretty vivid imagination mate. The vast majority of people, including young affluent London labour voters, will just focus on what his policies are.

A new owner for Canberra United has been found, with an option of an A-League team in two years: https://aleagues.com.au/news/apl-announces-australian-sports-group-as-new-owner-of-canberra-united-fc/ https://football360.com.au/canberra-united-ownership-details-a-league-women-men/ Does anyone...

Makes sense, they're part of City Football Group and appear to have sold their starting goalkeeper. That would be a decent enough move I think?

Who actually makes the decision about the national team manager? I assume Kugeler makes the decision with the footballing executives (Garriock in particular), which is then ratified by the board? If that's right, interesting that we have our first non-Australian at the helm (though he's been in...

I have literally never posted on Reddit, so I don't know what you're talking about. The Guardian has a leftist editorial bent, but as I mentioned pages ago, it's one of multiple news sources that I read. That's how I maintain balance in the media I consume. I was interested to understand...

Brother, you started the slurs by calling me a green haired leftie like six pages ago. The lack of self awareness is fucking astounding.

I come onto an internet forum to engage with and hear the views of real people, not views generated by algorithms running on data centres in California. Maybe people don't care, and that's fine, I'll leave it, but I sincerely think AI generated slop cheapens the experience of an internet forum.

No he didn't. There were allegations to that effect but Turnbull has denied them. The fact that he joined, and was subsequently leader of, the Federal Liberal Party, would be a strong indicator to anyone with half a brain that Turnbull wasn't a Laborite. I might have lost all credibility in...

The ball is the post, and the post was obviously AI generated. Stick to embarrassing yourself on the politics forum mate.

Where did you explain why Malcolm Turnbull is a "laborite"? I questioned that view, and rather than answer it like a rational adult, you ignored the question and told me to worry about UK politics. You're the one who can't grasp basic fucking concepts, jesus christ. I also didn't have a "giant...

Mate, stop trying to silence people. You've clearly got a problem with being called out on your incoherent and poorly reasoned views. At the slightest hint of a challenge, you just tell everyone to piss off or stop posting rather than explain yourself. That's how a toddler behaves. I'm...
