Josey, isn't the House of Windsor of German stock? Couldn't you lot find any of your own worthy of the throne?
It will never happen mate ,deep down inside you Aussies adore the monarchy and being part of the Commonwealth Matt , ps well done on brokering a commonwealth title shot for you charge .
See that's the thing mate, we don't leave the Commonwealth. Most countries within the Commonwealth are in fact Republics. I just think an Aussie should be the head of state in Australia. Makes sense to me. Cheers for the wrap too, though Colomban isn't my boxer.
I can understand why there's somewhat of a negative view of the Chinese. They're running at 8%, which is by their standards a slowdown, whilst you lot and the U.S. are crying recession and want to get away from your own land. This century is gonna belong to them. The U.S. had their turn last century and you lot before them. Why is being of Germanic stock so appealing to you? Is it true your Royal Family changed it's surname from a German one to the current one during World War 1 so the British peasentry wouldn't turn on them? I always thought it was a bit ****ed up that a German was sending British troops across the Channel to get killed by Germans. Don't tell me those two imbeciles have convinced you I'm Tony.
What's the point of being in the commonwealth if you are a republic ? that sounds like you want rid of your mothers apron string but scared to let go . Btw good luck to Sam in his quest .
:yikes that's a bit deep mate , lol I was only having a gee up ( as I do whenever royalty visit down under ) but I would defo rather be German than Chinese mate , maybe it's the Northen European connection ? Anyway I'm off for a pint with the badly brat pack.peace
Ummmm not sure what you people are all crying on about. The thing in the article about the 50-50 plus options was regarding their last negotiations ("he didnt want that"). This is a MANDATORY. They cannot force options on the mandatory.
I personally couldn't care less if we remain in the Commonwealth of nations, but we will. I firmly believe that the Queen of England shouldn't be the Australian head of state.
Decemeber 31st would actually suit Mundine i think. He finds it very hard to make 154, he uses a lot of camp to shift weight which training camp shouldn't be about really, Froch and Hopkins walk around about 5-10 pounds over their respective weight classes between fights as they are clearly comfortable at their weight. Its clearly not his weight but he wants to do it so leave him off, which is why getting in the ring so soon after the Alvarez fight is a good thing as he won't be out of the gym much and will be straight back in training mode and should maintain weight easier than he would if he didn't fight again for 6-7 months. Apparently nobody has been offered the Dec 31st date for certain yet, Cloud-Erdei and Geale-Pirog are 2 other fights been mooted for that date on Showtime in the states. Rafael reckons Geale-Pirog would be the best as do i. Cracking fight that.
yeah, and random drug tests for politicians and policemen...just like they do to miners and athletes..:deal life just aint fair sometimes..:yep
