Can't wait to hear Ram's take on your racial assessment :lol:

I'm originally from Eastern Europe and whenever I visit I feel like hugging my parents and thank them for taking me away from that shit mentality. They are however improving but need to eradicate the chest beating and laziness out of their psyche.

PS Australia still reigns supreme and despite some minor faults is the best country in the world.

Pension rates in this country are an abomination. When I talk to some of my relatives in Europe they laugh just how little it is. The reason is we give the housos, bludgers, lying disabled fraudsters and single mothers with multiple fathers too much money and there is not enough to go around.

best assessment of australian welfare ever!!! :thumn

:lol:

Sorry Pou but I don't agree with that. The reason is the corruption with welfare where for example in Greece people are getting 3 pensions fraudulently. How come there is no crisis of that magnitude in the Scandanavian countries? Reason: They are less corrupted and have their shit together with less or no strain from unskilled and sometimes criminal foreigners.

Their crisis is manifesting in a different way. In many European countries it is playing out as an unemployment crisis; immigrant kids are currently rioting in Stockholm's sububrs, and have set fire to a police station and a couple of schools as well as a bunch of shops and cars: http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/art...-leaves-restaurants-gutted-ruins-smoking.html

That's what you get for living in an area where no merkin can afford to have kids.

Anyway, f**k 'em. They think they're saving money by not reproducing but when the demographic apocalypse comes and the welfare/superannuation systems can't afford to look after all the elderly, young people will be at a premium. Remittances from their children will be the only way plenty of old people will be able to spend their retirement in any semblance of dignity.

I wonder what Casper thinks.

Agreed, but it gets far worse than that.

So, the 'academy'...

The following NYC players turn 18 this year, meaning they are able to sign (genuinely) legally binding contracts.

Does anyone know (or can you find out) which of them are, or will be, signed up beyond this year:

Dockar-Clay
Harrison
Moeroa
Tepu-Smith

There's something I really like about the way Corey Makelim plays footy. I'm not saying he's going to be a world beater, but he is a competitor. THere's something there I reckon.

Folau looks to me like a genuine centre. Daoud looked pretty good considering he came from the SG Ball this season if i'm correct.

Gorman doesn't impress me.

Why has Docker-Clay been moved to hooker in place of Vescio? I thought Vescio was very good last season. I haven't been able to follow the NYC team as closely this season so i'm not sure if he's been injured or just hasn't kicked on.

As others have stated Ualesi was great the other night.
