    Fairplay mate, thanks for letting us in on the real story :good

    Just to clarify Chopper never claimed to be associated with Ambrose, only mentioning his chance involvement in the bookie robbery. He also went onto say that Les Kane was not the familiar voice in question either. Whatever the case, apologies for using old Chop Chop as a reference to the great man...

    LeonMcS, sorry mate, I am not able to follow what you are implying...please excuse my ignorance to understand your direction or message to me; I am sometimes a bit slow at getting the 'drift' - hey, I tried though, I even went to the main page and looked for the thread you suggested, "Trust Spades if you want to ..not me!!" I am out now, in China, for some dinner, be back in a few hours though.

    You're ok mate, at the bottom of the page is a little bar that expand into a slew of other forum topics...that was one of a few that were a bit on the nose. As to your original link I enjoyed, thats why I explored the site further...and found the 'Trust' forum.

    Underbelly can not be viewed with any form of credibility. How can they portray Les Kane getting mowed down by 3 crims with automatic shooters and theres not one bullet hole anywhere in the room. Hell he must have stopped some bullets.

    Spot on mate. Was thinking the same thing. There wouldn't have been any bathroom left for the missus to have mopped up!

    Funny youse mention this (Bathroom scene).
    Many years ago, I was in a Brisbane waterfront pub & there was a bloke from down south trying to sell a handgun. My mate & late "Noongah" sinking hero Kenny McIntyre took a shine to it.
    This gun was a notoriously unreliable unit that would often misfire because of a sloppy chamber.
    I advised Kenny to give it a miss, but the fascination was too great & they sloped off to the toilet to talk turkey.
    Next this there was this ungodly explosion & shouts that only a tile & concrete room can reverberate.
    All of a sudden they burst from the dunny. Kenny grabbed a beer spilling half of it as he tried to quell his terror & get some colour back into his face, they other bloke sprinted blindly across the busy road & pelted the roscoe into the Brisbane river.
    It was revealed that during the negotiation, the "fence" was explaining the peculularities of the short arm & it went off.
    The bullet circumnavigaterd the bathroom several times trying to find something soft to rest in, our two Black Ops warriors thought they were surround by a columbian drug cartel as the richocheying projectile echoed it's brief but lethal passage.
    It was so funny, the publican even copped it sweet.

    With this episode in mind,,When I saw those blokes emptying their repeaters into that bathroom I would have thought they would have all been shredded.:rofl:rofl:rofl

    Knowing TV producers it was probably due to sponsorship in the form of product placement. Maybe we will soon see advertising for a certain brand bathroom tile that 'won't get dirty even in the messiest of situations' :yep

    I don't think Underbelly's credibility hinges on ballistic accuracy but more about getting the story right. At that range every slug from those sten guns would have torn straight thru him and ****ed the entire bathroom up let alone the rounds that would have missed him. Isn't the important thing the re-telling of the actual murder rather than semantics?
    One interesting point a mate of mine in the know made was the centralising of the female coppers role in the whole thing, in his words back then all she would have been doing is making the tea!
