I feel uncomfortable when judges, in some cases such as this one, come out and find the person not guilt but state things like (sic)"you probably did it". In my view, the judge should leave it at not guilty and let the prosecution appeal if they feel hard done by.

Apparantly there is a still a football game we are involved in this weekend. Bit hard to tell with all the noise around the club.

Will be some big changes this week, and not for the better.

Harry, Pitto and Elijah are all definite outs.

You'd think Reidy would have to be one of the Ins.
You'd probably have to have at least one of HOK or Derkson as well, as there isn't anyone else left.

Maybe now is the time to give Flynn Young a gig. If not now, then when??

Chalmers buying votes by allowing workers to claim $1,000 in deductions without any receipts needed. Labor just cant stop spending and adding to inflation and high debt levels.
True, but clinging onto that stuff when it's really just a drop in the ocean excuses the absence of any real opposition.

Economies work on 3 or even 4 orders of magnitude higher as the bare minimum.

A $1000 sounds great to those struggling, but it's not even covering the fuel rises for the average worker.

The problem here is that a lack of evidence presents a multiplicity of outcomes, it's really a p1ssweak decision that is sort of "Yeah, I think so, but just in case I'm wrong ..........!"

For the benefit of victims the legal process tends towards errors in one direction, because binary would be the accusation are true, or the accusations are fake. But without certainty it's a coin toss.

The problem I have with the process is that lawyers have become highly proficient at creating doubt on either side of such a case.

It's hard to understand how no one in the coaching group didn't notice Elijah's behaviour before the game.
That seems to suggest a disconnect between players and the coaching group.
Still can understand why, Hewitt & Acres are not in, you would think that those 2 could make a difference in the close losses we have had.
Still with all the problems we could easily been 5-1 up!!!
