Gotta love Grace Tame’s response to Charlie Pickering’s attack, well said & all correct.

“Charlie Pickering made a direct choice to cosy up to a man found guilty of abusing his wife, while denouncing me as ignorant. Surely I needn’t point out the irony here.”🔥 #auspol

Personally if I was ambushed by a known provocateur outside my workplace at the far-right protest attacking my workplace I would simply decline to be interviewed

James Hird's three-step plan to success in modern coaching:

✅ AI
✅ Tiktoks
✅ Looking 'em in the eye

This will probably go great!

In May, the federal budget did something Australian budgets almost never do. It touched the tax concessions that protect wealth. The response was predictable and it had nothing to do with salaried Australians.

Like these two…and the vast majority of Australians.

A registered nurse, 34, in Melbourne’s outer north. Under $90k, an essential job, still paying off the degree that got her there. Her rent is up more than a third in three years. Her pay isn’t. She did everything her generation was told to do, and she’s going backwards.

A maintenance supervisor, 51, keeping a regional NSW town’s biggest employer running. Fixed his mortgage at 2% in 2021 and felt secure for the first time. Rolled onto a rate three times higher. Repayments up more than $1,000 a month, on a wage that didn’t move.

Neither owns an investment property. Neither has a lobby, a peak body, or a meme campaign. Between them they are most of the country and in the week the budget tried, however modestly, to shift the balance back towards them, the airwaves belonged to the people they’ll never become.

The salaried majority has been getting poorer for years while the national conversation was about someone else. Those with asset power.

Mick Malthouse on @abcsport on the Bombers coaching process:

It will be a sham, it smells already. You can almost see those that are around, those that have any sort of position have already pushed the button. The fact that James has said yeah I'd love to have the job and there's nothing wrong with that to say I would love the job but I just can't see how any senior coach that's out of the game would put his hand up and go I'm going through that. It's already been decided.
And any young bloke will go through it just for the process of understanding what it's like to be interviewed.

The AFR Rich List shows a grotesque accumulation of wealth while millions of Australians struggle with the cost of living.

There are now 178 billionaires in Australia, 17 more than a year ago.

Australia doesn't have a wealth problem. Australia has a wealth distribution problem.

Shout out to James Cameron for understanding decades in advance that one of the great villains of our time would have the exact aura of Paul Reiser in Aliens. This psycho is just real life Carter Burke.

[Emlyn Breese @EmlynBreese]

Setting aside the history, the idea that you’d even consider as senior coach someone who has spent a total of less than 9 months in an AFL program, in a part time role no less, in the last decade is utterly fucking insane.
