ok

The problem with this line of thinking is that it can be used to easily justify colonialism.

Japan can be either ‘Nippon’ or ‘Nihon’. China is even more complicated because it depends on the translation and the dialect, there are quite literally dozens of way to express the name. Most countries have different names in different languages. Italia Danmark Sverige Norge Suomi Nederland Hrvatska so on and so forth. Germany for instance is called Alemagne in French, and Alemannia in Spanish.

Well it isn’t like it is a new thing. Arsene Wenger telling players to not get on it every night was revolutionary in the 90s. They still do in the NRL and AFL

Wasn't Magath a bit on the drill instructor side with some odd pagan medicine shit?

I don’t think Klopp is much of a tactician but most of the best coaches.aren’t either. Footballers are mostly dumb as fuck so they need a coach to trick them into doing what the coach wants. Maybe the players are getting too pig headed and doing what they want, need a bit of hairdryer treatment. Maybe he should throw a shoe a Salah. There is a reason why the academia and his colleagues say Biesla is a genius despite not having much success, it is because he is a tactical genius but can’t communicate his ideas to the morons he coaches. Klopp doesn’t have that problem because he knows how to tell an idiot what to do. The ability to disseminate complex information to a dumb jock is underrated.

I'm sure you can find weird tax shit in most country's histories. I think Imperial Russia had a 'beard tax'. Jizya tax would blow a lot of people's minds.

No, the ABC is free, there is like 6 of them now. You might be mixing it up with the American broadcast company with the same name.

I am not arguing against you, just the idea that the fee needs to be so high or that a public broadcaster should be making Hollywood costing movies on the taxpayer’s expense. I know why it exists and it would have been a great idea in the 1920s but I really doubt the rate of TVs in homes hasn’t been over 95% since the 80s. ABC is fine if unspectacular, for the most part it probably needs more original programming but it used to have a very down to earth feel to it, not so much these days but it used to feel pretty sincere.

Haha why does the BBC need £4billion a year? As if It is a total rort and you are trying to justify £160 a year fee. They’ve got you in a Stockholm’s Syndrome. The ABC gets AUD$3 billion over three years. A billion a year by 25,000,000 Australians is about $40 p/a per person which is about £23. I know what I prefer!

Incredibly sad, pointless, and ultimately avoidable. This is 100% I condemned all pitch invasions in the prior thread, all it takes is one thing to go wrong and then everything goes wrong.

Andd I just googled that only 3/4 of the BBC is funded by license. So no, it isn't fairer because you are paying for it regardless. https://commonslibrary.parliament.uk/research-briefings/cbp-8101/ And the ABC is funded significantly less than the BBC is. https://www.aph.gov.au/About_Parliament/Parliamentary_Departments/Parliamentary_Library/pubs/rp/BudgetReview201819/Fundingfornationalbroadcasters

ABC doesn't have adverts and we don't have to purchase a licence, you get taxed regardless, so why does the BBC have a specific tax? We also get Channel 7, Channel 10, Channel 9, and SBS for free, as well as all the derivatives. Seems like a relic of a yesteryear that shouldn't exist but no government will get rid of it because the returns are too nice.

No worse then buying a licence for the fucking TV

Also classic Bondi, more Brits than Aussies.

I’m much whiter and much hairier.

I think around 80% of Australians live on the east coast. Could be wrong but it is very high. Obviously not as an extreme amount as 94% but it is a smaller land area.

It makes no sense either because they are Croats, which I’m pretty sure the Nazis disliked. Braindead fuckwads

I’m pretty sure ethnic clubs aren’t allowed in the A-League. They are about as self aware an an ant ’Oi bruz u haff to respeckt our ancestry or yura a fukken racist. oi bruz what iz dis fukken traditional owner abo shit, wha da fuck’

I don’t know if the inland areas can support as much population as the coasts. The environment of Alberta for instance is pretty hostile. I’m pretty sure the majority of Canadians live within 200 miles of the American border, or something ridiculous.

The Philippines isn’t a kleptocracy anymore, I was referring to the past, the 60s/70s more specifically.

It's too much and that sort of population boom can be bad. Canadians that would have been living in the major metros can no longer afford to as housing prices have skyrocketed with demand. Same issue in Australia, I will probably never be able to afford to live in one of the major cities. It's kind of unfair to some people, it's bizarre how much immigration is pushed as a 'good thing' but it isn't a 'good thing' or a 'bad thing' it's just something that happens, and while extreme consequences for better or worse. I'm an immigrant and I'm anti-immigration for the most part. It sort of works in a place like the USA because it's so big and can handle an incredibly huge population, but Canada and Australia just can't. It's not like people immigrate to Winnipeg or Calgary. They want Vancouver and Toronto. People don't move to Toowoomba or Newcastle, they go to Sydney and Melbourne. Then it's just the smart and capable people moving, it just causes a brain drain on the migrant's country. My wife's parents were both doctors, are two doctors more valuable in the Philippines or the USA...? I'd say the country with people living in destitute poverty needs medical help more than literally the richest nation in existence. I don't blame people for leaving either, why stick around in a kleptocracy (the Philippines) or a theocracy (Iran) when they can live in the home of the free, land of the brave where the USA's inherit problems are hardly their concern?

Was it specifically to lose or was it more specific than that? Like X amount of wickets, or this batsman out to this bowler?

If you wanna see something crazy about Canada look at the demographics change since the 90s. I don’t think any country has had such a immigration change like Canada.

missed on a chance to end it with fully sick
