    That is a cartel and the root of our problems.

    I would have thought the cut off age would be 65 given the category is working age population. Must be hundreds of thousands allergic to employment lost in those figures.

    What are the million plus folk not in the labour force and not registered as unemployed doing? Seems a lot of people or have I got it wrong?

    Many take 7 or 8% for doing nothing. Unless you have a very good one, they are not worth the cost. When we moved here we got mail for a previous tenant, a local property manager for a big real estate company. There were quite a few bills which were not paid and she wasn't about to pay. I met my...

    Kent got what he deserved. He was the aggressor, had plenty of time to back off. From the video evidence and no doubt from witnesses who will testify against him, Kent will lose any reputation he has and hopefully be charged and found guilty.
  6. General How are we feeling about the year so far?

    Would like to have won one or two more games but not worried. All teams go through a stage of losing three or four games on the trot. It was going to happen for us at some stage. AW will know how to correct things. RTS is taking a little longer than I thought to become a centre and that may have...

    They wont stop until store workers are armed can shot the thieves. A few dead thieves on the floor, nobody moaning about it and it would fade away.
  8. NRL NRL Naughty chair

    Old guys like Paul Kent should know better. Made a fool of himself and probably damaged his career beyond repair. He needs help if only to stay of the drink.
  9. General Regional League Comps Discussion

    Did you play against Gary Mercer? Good player, I think he returned to BOP after his pro career?
  10. Social What are you reading?

    The Civil War, Shelby Foote. Trilogy of more than a million words. Took 20 years to write. Took me a year to read the first time, just finished the first book second time round. Masterpiece if you want to go back into American history and culture. Best crime book I've ever read, In Cold Blood...
  11. General Regional League Comps Discussion

    Sounds like a strong comp with good reserve grade numbers. How is junior football going?

    You don't understand the nature of the industry, that is obvious. KO don't employ tradesmen, they manage contracts. Building contractors are mostly self employed, not many builders are on wages anymore. Developers are not contractors, they tender the job out, usually split between construction...

    KO should not be building to ' mop up the trades fleeing to Aus'. Nor is it their brief to maintain or expand the building sector. Perhaps they should buy a forest and harvest their own logs as well. Miket12 is pointing out the net increase in new stock units, that is all. KO employ staff to...
  14. General 1995 Home Jersey Signed

    No idea of value. You would be best to auction it on trademe or here maybe. I think there are collectors on this forum that would be interested.
  15. Social A Weighty Issue

    Will you need to get some sort of license? Hearing stories from a couple of people I know that have been in the business a long time and they can't sell bush pot this year. Don't know if it is cost of living related or people growing a plant or two of their own seeing the penalty if caught is...
  16. Social A Weighty Issue

    I've been told many times I should challenge myself, get out of my comfort zone, try something new. Usually the people urging me on might be good at one thing but fuck all else and don't take their own advice in the areas they lack. It's good to be within my comfort zone, know my limitations...
  17. Recruitment Warriors 2024/2025 Recruitment & Retention

    Less than Matt Lodge and he got a free year. Not the way we do business, low balling the best player in his position.
  18. Recruitment Warriors 2024/2025 Recruitment & Retention

    The value of props must have tanked in the last 24hours for that figure to be true. I don't believe that is anywhere near the figure he signed for.
  19. Recruitment Warriors 2024/2025 Recruitment & Retention

    Credit and thanks to the owners and CG for what they have done over the last few years. They could have gone for an establish FG coach but went for AW which has proved a master stroke. The signings since have been excellent, beyond our expectations.
