No. I don't think I have heard that!

We are acknowledging our Kiwi Cuzzy bros as being part of the wider Antipodean family. But yeah, pretty much just pretending she's Australian because of the right of residency rule

A team that had sufficient talented players to challenge for the top 8, coming equal last and sacking their coach. I'd call that a disaster
They didn't work anything out like Parra and start heading in the right direction
Went from bad to worse
That's a disaster

Excellent. It's going to be one of the songs featured in ep 2 of Sounds of Australia

It was awful the way he was treated. Wayne moved 5 or 6 players to positions they're less familiar with, weakening the whole side just to avoid picking him.
When he did play, Souths had so few 1st graders, he was never going to look good

Trump might have immunity, but ICE does not.

He won’t be able to protect federal agents from criminal and civil prosecution once he’s gone.

Their day of reckoning will come. Broken down here…

Polyester Girl has a great story, but my favourites are Blubber Boy. Black Bugs, !, and I love your old remix.

The original line up lasted until 1999

Sounds of Australia podcast released our first podcast (I am a co host). We choose 3 songs and chose ! (Song formally known as), Blubber Boy and Polyester Girl.
I think Black Bugs should have replaced Polyester Girl.

There were two versions of "I like your old stuff" - the album version was electronic and largely instrumental. Then there was the song / story version called "I like your old remix" which was a single release. It was the remix that made the Hottest 100

We should be considering part ownership schemes like the UK has. Not the scheme Labor went with. A far more sensible scheme exists and has done since the 80s.
Limited titles can be used.
Timeframes where investment ownership is not permitted, cheap land releases, houses built in factories etc

There's an illogical process behind the value of properties in Australia.
There's also a whole load of things we can do to reduce prices for young Australians.
Things that can reduce the market overall & things that don't. But we won't as self interest of the majority rules.
