Rumours and Stuff

Yeah but I think many people have lost hope. Look at the cost of wages vs median house purchase cost now. Homeownership is a myth for kids without an inheritance.

Our cost of living is a disgrace. Simply driving to work and back is $60+ a day purely in tolls!

We should be the wealthiest continent on the planet but instead our people are getting poorer whilst we have given our country away.

Albo and his mass migration of unskilled gypo’s isn’t helping either.

How f**king funny is it that Tigers board have actually just given the full George Costanza treatment.

Bosses are like “oh you thought we were serious when we sacked you?! Come on!!! We’re funny guys, we’re always making jokes. We weren’t serious…”

aaaaaand you have fallen for their lame trick.....

HBG are "yeah we werent serious, you can all have your jobs back......and meet your two new ADDITIONAL board members".

Its no longer an independent board.

He was excellent when he was at the Wanderers, and generally very popular with the fans.
Fantastic fan engagement and a great communicator. The Tiges could do worse.

Thought he was at Mariners?

I can't argue with any of this, especially on the inheritance front. Life can be a bitch.
For those who gain from a boomer inheritance they will benefit more because boomers were the last of the large families. Instead of being one of 5+ kids the following gen's were mostly part of a 2-3 sibling family. This translates into more dollars spread between less descendants when us ol' f**kers kick the bucket.

Wanderers first, then Mariners.
Believe it or not, he was generally well respected by the RBB as a great communicator and a fighter for their cause. As fans.
Highly recommended.

Because we give all our gas away to multinationals.

I reckon I’d still be able to live off $100k even in Sydney even if I didn’t currently own my home. Already owning my home trying to live off $100k, are you f**ken kidding me? I could live like a king and still wouldn’t touch the sides.
You’re not the only person I’ve seen say it but I have no idea what you could be spending it on to be on struggle street.

Earning $100K is app $70K after tax. Average mortgage payments in Syd is $50K pa. Leaves $400 a week. factor in tolls etc, its not a lot.

So how come PVL didn't push a Richo return mate? Maybe the rumours are true?

Homeownership is a myth for kids without an inheritance.

I can only speak for my regional area. I know it’s almost too hard in Sydney. But my daughter left school in Yr 11, did a telecommunications traineeship with NBN and is now almost 3 years in. She’s a massive tightarse, doesn’t drink much and drives a 15 yr old car. Sure she still lives at home so she doesn’t have many overheads, but she’s not far away from having a significant deposit on a house. So it’s possible. If she kept studying like her sister will, well, good luck. She’ll not only have no savings, but likely a big HECS debt.

The "rumours" ARE true and we know they are true because Richo declared the conflict of interest in the first week he was at the club and the board (including HBG representatives) approved it unanimously. The "whistleblower" sperading these "rumours" is simply a ploy to delay and minimise Richo's payout.

PVL is hamstrung with what he can "force". HBG arent broke and havent broken any rules/laws so NRL/PVL are limited in hiow much they can push.

Richo "resigned" and the bridges have been burned, the ashes collected, pissed on, sundried and set fire to again.

$100k gross is closer to $80k cash in hand until you do your tax return. Without looking at tax tables, I’d say around $1480 net per week.
Maybe living like a king was a bit overstated, but my problem is there are ways around it, but I find mostly that the people complaining about the price of things are driven luxury cars, are smokers, Uber eats every meal, boozes hard and then wonders why inflation is going up still

And average mortgage is $1000 per week, so yes leaving $400-480 to live on including electricity, medical, food transport.

Please tell me she doesn't just stick it in the bank. If I had done that I would never have owned a house.

True.

But Semi played in a full-time professional era, when props were 190cm, and 110kg, fit, and strong as oxes.

I think they're both phenomenal.

I never saw Eric but he has the titles.Titles are records and they mean more. They are moments in time that get remembered. Nobody's going to remember Semi unless you watched NRL for that dominant 3- 4yrs he played. That's not a much of a legacy. He had some awesome moment's and that's it. Did he ever win a finals game?


The biggest problem with Semi was and Hayne was the club. They are the two best players I've ever seen in my time following the blue and gold.And RUGBY LEAGUE as a whole. They just didnt have the best coaching staff. These guys are far better players then Too and Edwards. As a club we let them down and blew our chances of a title. Paired them with Robson and Mortimer ffs. If we kept Hayne and Semi together we would of won have 2 titles. f**k me. You build a side around that talent. Probably won't see it again for 25yrs. That f**kwit of a coach BA some how managed to lose both of them.

Im optimistic the new Coaching staff will have the teams best interests rather then his sons. And some cock$ want to defend BA. Really Are you stupid?

You have summoned the beast - this post is like saying “Biggie smalls” three times

If people don’t want advice especially about finances and the property market, then that’s better for me
