    ah yeah but we do have several other wingers who can do as good a job

    speaking of physicality, Dave Kearney brought gasps from the crowd when he came on last w/e, looked like he had been eating spinach all summer

          Indeed but I would say that Heally has been proven to be replaceable and we will need to learn to live with that either way. We can hardly start him cold into the French game after such a long lay off. Last time he came back from injury he over played everything and we cant afford that against the French.

          SO'B can be replaced by Chris Henry for a more traditional 7 or if we just want a big ball carrier/physical presence at 7 we have options for that aswell.

          Sexton and Heaslip are our 2 irreplaceables skills wise and O'Connell for his presence and leadership.

          I would say murray is more critical to the team now than Heally or O'Brien but they sure do make the team a lot better. Same as Trimble does.

          Ramble over

              Let's go into business. I'll look after Sales and tax, you look after the tech. Buy a job lot from China and market them as "dodgy boxes" that get rid of the need for SKY. They would fly off the shelves to the Northside. Once there is an hint of criminality in them they will sell like hot cakes.

              Pi+Case+Micro SD are the necessary pieces

              HDMI

                Anyone got an electric car? How close to becoming reasonable are they?

                Most of them are dog ugly unfortunately*, but really very interested in the idea.

                  Of course its a female but I must clarify I'm very happily married.
                  Haven't really catered for vegetarians in my cooking plans before and I'm assuming boiled potatoes and carrots won't cut it.

                    Dyson recently bought a US battery company that claim they can produce double the storage for 1/5 of the price which would bring $25,000 EVs to the market.

                            Botham wouldn't be in the top 100 batsmen, his average was only 33 or so.

                            He was an absolutely superb bowler though.

                                Probably true but that 33 has so much implied value. My test is he did it when the chips were down. Usually these fellas that get the centuries are doing it when its all wrapped up anyway. I kinda drifted out of the game after himself, gatting and co retired.

                                                                                                      That dance didn't work for Romney. I think Bush would probably have less dancing to do to get back there, but most of the rest need to appeal to the crazies a bit I think.

                                                                                                      Do you think there is an almost 0% chance of Trump standing as an independent? I can't see it happening (and he won't get the nom obviously), but if he did he would be handing the election to the Dems.

Good psychological thrillers are always more tense/nerve wracking than horrors imo. Look forward to Joel Edgertons next derectorial role if this is what he can deliver.
