Very sad to hear of the passing of Dennis Cometti. A great commentator but also a kind and warm man. He was so nice to me when I did a work placement at Ch9 in 2003 when other media types basically ignored me. Sat next to him as he called Jason McCartney’s comeback game. I was honoured. RIP Dennis.

I thought Iran’s nuclear program had been completely obliterated? Didn’t the orange creep say that? I’m sure he said that.

Nine months ago, the United States "completely and totally obliterated" Iran's nuclear program.

Tonight, we're attacking Iran to disrupt their nuclear program.

A sizable percentage of this country thinks that's normal.

Spurs vs Woolwich tonight. Fair to say I am absolutely bricking it once again.

Hope. There’s hope. And it’s the hope that kills ya!

This really is totally messed up. Surely these good people can take Trump and his ICE goons to court. Fucking smash them with litigation for the next decade.

Pretty hard to argue with that.
Even the β€˜sillier’ humour of yesteryear was smart guys like Tony Martin and Mick Molloy, and Merrick and Rosso, and Wil and Adam on JJJ and the airwaves were all the better for it.

Thou shalt not let an 80-year-old pedophile and his pedophile friends steal yet another election so they can continue to rape children free from consequence.

This marks a shift. Public pressure is working.

Igor Tudor. Really. So random.
Does seem to be in keeping with the club’s hiring policy for several decades though. Namely to throw shit at the wall and see what sticks.

Disappointing to listen to several pods discussing the prospect of De Zerbi getting the Tottenham job with no mention of how he enthusiastically rehabilitated Mason Greenwood while at Marseille.

It's a hard no from me for that alone, and I hope enough of the fanbase feel the same

One thing that astonishes me about the Herzog visit is that Israel has murdered more journalists than any other state in the 21st century, and he hasn’t faced a single question about this (to my knowledge) from the Australian media

But but but
If they’re praying, how the fuck are they also rioting?? I would have thought it’d be physically impossible to do both at the same time
