Just finishing Yellowstone, great show! Where are you watching Landman Shawny?

On Paramount plus cookie.

Yellowstone is great as are the prequels.  Territory is close to an Australian version of Yellowstone and is worth watching.

Loved Yellowstone and now watching Landman which is another Taylor Sheridan series. Bill Bob Thornton is the lead and only up to E3 but it has me hooked.

All I can say is....#### 2024, surely 2025 can't be worse

I reckon it will get worse globally and then in turn locally....

You could apply that to the middle east in general.  They only crack it about Israel, because they got a massive leg up, got some prime lands handed to them, and know that irrespective of how that plays out, Israel have the mighty US behind them, because thats how they keep their foothold their.

They also have a proxy in Turkey, so either way, the USA is happy maintaining the status quo, and you can see it in the language used to describe the same action.  Israel protect their citizens, the rest are terrorists.  Last I checked Terror can be waged by both sides of the fence, with the only difference being the identity of those being terrorised.

No doubt the USA are happy to support Israel and protect their interests ie Oil and strategic areas in the region and they wrongly also turn a blind eye when Israel go too far and decide to annihilate everything in their path as part of their revenge agendas.
Turkey are happy to sit on the fence and be Switzerland, happy to be a NATO country but equally happy to have good relations with Russia, the latter consider all NATO countries as non friendly but not Turkey even though Turkey is a lynch pin country for the USA and NATO in that part of the world.
Its a funny setup in the middle east  but as you say its about the status quo and principles/decency dont count for much which either side/s you are on...

Surprise surprise.

… Ain't that America somethin' to see, baby?
Ain't that America? Home of the free, yeah

Outgoing US president Joe Biden has pardoned his son Hunter Biden, sparing him a possible prison sentence for federal felony gun and tax convictions and reversing his past promises not to use the extraordinary powers of the presidency for the benefit of his family.
Like most politicians they are all corrupt at some level and when you break it all down there isnt much difference between Trump and honest Joe.

Alex Silvagni wasnt a bad defender and had a bit of agro about him, pity he couldnt stay fit enough.
Ben played a bit of backline at numerous clubs without much impact or zest for the role.

.......................................

what does everyone have against Cerra??   the "forgettable man"??

I was wondering the same. Would be a lock for best 22.

Yep
Reading around there are quite a few clubs interested.
Personally I'd rather keep him
But the club may be looking at his age compared to Motlop and Durdin and choose to move him on.
I think his value might not be in a swap for a pick ...but rather bundled with a pick for a player of need.
