A real challenge for him to enter* his tips each week.

Would be hard to pick with too!

Daughter plays indoor netball on a Saturday morning @ 8am

We get there, warm up and then realise the roof is leaking onto the corner of the court. They place a lined bin there with cones around it to section it off.

The umpire/coodinator comes over and says that the opposition aren't happy about playing with the said bin/cones and won't play. No problem with that.

The umpire/coordinator says "we'll call the game off if both teams (quote both) will decide it's unsafe". I'm not an official but I asked "so what if we don't agree and we want to play". She says "well you've got no choice because they won't play". I said "so does the AFL make these rules up for you"? She walked away - given that it's not her making the rules, just passing the message on.

Seriously what a stupid rule. Organisations that make rules up don't think through the ramifications, such as my daughter's netball and AFL.

The bullshit PC police have hounded the Scotty and Swanny podcast into the abyss. Pathetic.

Having runs sports centre if an injury occurs then all sorts of legal ramifications could occur if they knew the floor was wet

What was said?

A podcast called "Shameless", two women talking about being women in the modern world and other things ( surprisingly I don't actually listen ), is the #1 podcast in Australia. On the Scotty and Swanny podcast Scott Cummings asked "Are they together?", Susie O'Brien, in the Herald Sun click bait section wrote that he said "Do they lay together?". "Shameless" responded, disparagingly, S&S sent them a transcript and they basically moved on after finding out that's not what he said at all. O'Brien wouldn't retract her story, the S&S podcast got some more listeners.

On the S&S they would read out (sort of) sexual maneuvers from the Urban Dictionary ( like Angry Racoon, DON'T look it up at work! ) and last week they searched the Urban Dictionary for "Dirty...." Ralph (Ralph Horowitz, co-host ), Dane ( Dane Swan ) and Scott ( Scott Cummings ). A "Dirty Ralph" is ( supposedly ) when a woman is on all fours vomiting a man sneaks up from behind........and it has arrived at this being Cummings and co condoning sexual assault.

Cummings has been sacked from his 3AW gig, the podcast has been shutdown and O'Brien is now trolling S&S on twitter.

All this despite the podcast being listed as "explicit" on Spotify and the "acts" only being read out, not conducted or condoned.

World. Gone. Mad.

Was going to write the exact same thing.

Its a podcast which has to be searched for and downloaded before you listen, don't like it, don't download the next episode, simple.

All the 1 star ratings were after the Shameless episode and all rated by women.

Housewives and do-gooders with nothing better to do

Everything about her annoys me, she does some segments on Sunrise, talks like a squeaky 14 year old.

Cummings has been sacked by 3AW in the aftermath.

Arrived in wet and windy Wellington. Picked up the hire car at the airport and headed for my digs in the city. It’s a tick over 7 k’s. For the second time in 3 months that trip took me an hour and a half... FFS!

Last ski of the day yesterday and had a stack not too dissimilar to the ones they used to show on WWOS!
Have to wait until swelling goes down but appears that I have broken my thumb

I had a car like that once too.

One lane each way through 2 tunnels between airport & the city...... bloody ridiculous.
