Look forward to this one

Yeh I notice the irony but can we have just one ‘White man shut the fuck up” day each year?

Privilege to see Counting Crows in such a small venue. Under-sang on the big songs a bit which is annoying, but a great artistic performance nonetheless.

Sometimes you just need to sit and watch surfers do their thing.

What worries me most about this Reds performance today is that Less Kiss seems unable to devise strategy to win meaningful games. Poor kick strategy. Lack of variety. Basically: run it till we score.

Am I growing old and nostalgic or do no teams make such good looking jerseys anymore?

@jamesdaustin.bsky.social would you give ruggo.app a go?

When picking the Wallabies, you start with Syd Harvey, then the rest. Finally someone we can build a winning team around.

I don’t think any single thing has been more evil in my lifetime than the Zionist lobby.

#auspol I don’t think Canavan is evil. I reckon a David Pocock or David Shoebridge will be able to work with him and bring him around on climate etc.

@patskarvelas.bsky.social why is not a single media commentator picking up on the migration of Labor supporters to the Greens/Teals? Surely that migration is a now as newsworthy as Libs leaking to One Nation?

Picked up this beauty for my son today. Made in Australia. Be so nice if brands can just make decent quality stuff again.

On another matter, I reckon the Wallabies are in good shape player-wise to beat both Ireland and France. Would that be thing @rugbykino.bsky.social

Conflicted now. Not a big fan of Less Kiss (not the human, just his play style and lack of results), but this was a good win away. Suddenly the Tahs also look beatable. So can the Reds reach their potential?

The Charlie Cale/Wilson match up tonight is intriguing. What happens to Wallaby leadership group if Cale lifts Wilson? Is there time for this? Will having a Cale/Bobby V partnership be better than having Wilson/McReight/McDermot?

Waratahs last night committing the old sin of wanting to score tries when points will do. When a defence in red Zone is resolute, you break the deadlock with field goals. The scoreboard pressure will open opportunities later.

Bit Ai sloppy video but a very good song @auspol.info #auspol and relevant to now.

We now see you for what you are. The three war parties: One Nation, the Coalition and Labor who have never seen a US war they don't want to back in. Millions of Australians disagree with you. They want a government of principle, they want a government of peace.

End of another beautiful day in Aus. One day we will have a truly caring government as well.

My parents voted for the party that sustained Apartheid for about 20 years longer than it needed to be. Not because they were evil but because of propaganda. As a result I see all propaganda and just want true equality. Race, religion, gender - all of it.

What ALP now must do with NG and CGT, is to “flood the zone” with potential progressive policies so Murdoch etc cannot get a handle on anything to attack.

Is there a way on Bluesky to filter out certain topics like Trump and USA?

I see the FAI in Ireland subscribes to the ALP in Australia’s version of improving social cohesion. Let’s invite total cunts and then ask the locals to stay calm and show respect. I hope the Dubliners prevent kick-off from happening.

The more I stare at rugby data the more my hypothesis cements: I would rather select 2 fly halves at wing than 2 wings. Being able to dominate territory/play smart trumps speed in a channel that hardly sees any ball.

When you are glad your team is not playing on the weekend due to their god-awful approach to attack. Thats the Reds for you.

I am a migrant and now really worried that my values might not be Australian. 🐊 love nature and want to see it protected 🕺believe that our strength lie in diversity and a wide range of ideas 💵 believe that we should tax wealth, not work. Am I missing something?

The ABC has belatedly discovered that the Jewish community is diverse. Well put @joshbornstein.bsky.social youtube.com/watch?v=kAsx... #auspol

@albomp.bsky.social still think you are a good bloke but you lost my vote in #Sydney.

#Auspol so how do we punish labor for #Hertzog and lack of action on gambling and climate without giving psychotic right a bump? We desperately need more Teal candidates and for the Greens to shape up.

This was the France v Wallabies game in November with France here being My Team. Amazing how efficient the French are in moving forward. They don’t end any plays back from where they start and they exit very quickly, below a ruck per attack!

Looking at France’ last two games. Amazing how rarely winning teams progress beyond phase 3.

A bit worried as to how long ago Less Kiss won a rugby game.

How do we measure the Exit stat? Why is it important? youtu.be/zCeVRE9OpS0

Rugbycology is a new database for rugby union that makes it possible for every schools and club team around the world to measure and compare performance. youtu.be/GN14D13FekQ @squidgerugby.bsky.social @ekrugby.bsky.social @linebreakrugby.bsky.social @bloodandmud.bsky.social @rugbykino.bsky.social

And off we go!

Amazing how the ugliest building in any Australian city will always be the Murdoch buildings. #Melbourne

Hey @australianlabor.bsky.social and @albomp.bsky.social are you still going to pretend a country that is celebrating military action on its own citizens shares values with us. How you answer will determine your next election result. If this doesn’t offend you you can’t be trusted with our votes.

Oooh so maybe JOC at 10 and Jorgensen at 15… Looking forward now to #Wallabies squad announcement.

#auspol Are there any organisations mobilising to march against coal/gas/billionaires not paying tax?

@jontybush.bsky.social is there a groundswell of people willing to march against coal and gas companies not paying tax and the billionaire class doing same?

@davidpocock.bsky.social we marched for Palestine and some marched for white Australia. In the newfound spirit of mobilisation, how about a march for taxing the super wealthy and fossil fuel companies?

Wallaroos like Wallabies the week before paying a heavy price for missing an easy conversion. So close. Now to prepare for the monster. #rugbyworldcupW

Not to be uncouth, but here is that cunt Elon Musk these days?

Yep, there it is. I am suddenly very excited about the rugby World Cup W. Cmon Wallaroos we back you all the way!

The Sports back page of the @theaustralian.bsky.social today featured not one but 3 rugby union articles and had to concede that the Liberal party is why labour keeps gaining in polls. It must be a hard Monday.

Good point.

So, does Paisami and Toole get a look-in, with Gleeson and Valetini starting. We must get all players exposed to manic pressure environments and Paisami and Toole and Gleeson needs this badly.
