With this thingy landing on Mars...what's the big deal? Hasn't there been stuff put on Mars before? What's so important about this one?

Its supposed to be the strongest ever designed. Have they deployed the rockets from the cradle yet? It will be quite an acheivement if they get it down to Mars as per plan.

That landing was a thing of real beauty. Wonderful scenes.

So it made it in one piece BDR? I hope they repeat it tonight.

Curiosity is there to test geography radiation and climate so NASA can plan for a human mission. It's the first step towards us seeing a human on Mars in our lifetime.

Yes it made it, the first images were grainy and black and white but I believe the rover is equipped with HD colour cams so hopefully we see some spectacular images in the future.

Jumped on Parra 13+ tonight. I'm not that confident but honestly, $6.50 was a bit too juicy not to put a tenner down given both sides recent form....

Name me a better rotation of 6 props in the last 20 years.

Legit superstar, surrounded by quality, and 2 superstar potential kids.

:lol: Cmon bro.

Asotasi is past it, Sam Burgess is a back rower, the other Burgess' are rubbish, Lima is coming back from England so who the christ know how he'll go. Just a woeful statement...

 

[Jobdog]

And the others are just based on potential :crazy:

Asotasi isn't a star anymore but he's still a very good first grade prop. He was showing it before he got injured. L Burgess is a very good #3 prop and George and Tom have legit superstar potential.

And Sam Burgess has the agility to be a second rower but defensively he has what it takes to be in the trenches in the middle of the field. Part of what makes him so great.

Maybe he's gone with the Rusty mentality - Their last name is Burgess, they must be alright!
