I fear it will be choice No 2 where Taiwan will be the new Sudeten land because everyone is running scared of the Chinese muscle and the USA will back off to the Philippines and let China dominate the rest of the Pacific.

We should have taken it one step further and had the subs nuclear armed.

Probably less value given we acquired him with a dodgy Achilles injury, was never a fan of that amount being paid for a rebound only defender but the market sets the price and he had multiple suitors.

All points to the general dearth of talent in the comp and the gambles clubs must make.   Sorta highlights the stupidity in recruiting from time to time, but swings and roundabouts.

In defence of Payne, it seems that she wanted to do more in the South Pacific but was blocked by her colleagues.  That said, her authoritarian approach was more likely to put our neighbours offside.

They are clearly spoiling for an incident to trigger something more major and I'd be forgetting about kissing and making up with them like Albo and Penny Wong want to do and taking a more hardline approach and tooling up our military more.

They are aggressive but their greatest weakness, in my opinion, is a complete misunderstanding of western culture and our tolerance toward threats.
