    I’m pretty sure the dinosaurs died out when they stopped gathering food and started having meetings to discuss gathering food

    A bookshop is one of the only pieces of evidence we have that people are still thinking

    Hmmm, not sure about that one, I notice they will change the rules to prevent full body tackling. This means they are altering the game to suit women.

    What about Elise Perry for the Aussie Cricket team?
    I bet she would do better than some we have.

    If you look at all the rule changes in recent years they already have.
    AFL is getting so soft that it wont be long before netball is tougher.

    It is almost getting to the stage where I would prefer to watch my local footy over AFL.
    Although nowhere near AFL standard, it is good old fashioned footy.

    I was asked " Is it ignorance or apathy?" I replied "I don't know and I don't care."

    A news release on April 1, not sure we can take it seriously. As I said, it got me. Hard to believe it would happen
