Don't know if you've been there, but it's actually a beautiful and amazing place. Some third world aspects. The nightclub scene with the cockhead bogans is about 0.00000001% of the place.

It's a shame really when most of the locals are humble and respectful.

I think that's his point though... it's basically like the Gold Coast during toolies (which is a cesspit BTW) except:
- You can't drink the water + the general standard of hygiene/amenities is lower (particularly outside the touristie areas).
- There's no rule of law, only a reactionary muslim dictatorship that enjoys killing westerners to see their countries beg/cry.
- Bribery is part of society. Everybody expects a kickback for everything and it's a slippery slope getting involved because you're always assuming that you've bribed the right person.
- It's full of daggy western tourists who think they can do anything outside Australia (including paedos and the like).
- NRL players use it as their playground.

I'm sure there's lovely parts (like anywhere) but I would still call it chaotic. Also personally, I don't feel safe entering countries with the death penalty being administered by a crazy muslim dictatorship (with massive expansion plans - they want to be the world's 4th largest economy within 10-20 years and don't in any way respect that they're a poor country that we keep having to bail out coz people are starving and stuff while they spend all their $$$ on building a massive army at our doorstep). I cannot support such actions through paying for their tourism industry - sorry.

My wife's parents spend about 5 months a year there, they do a 5 year lease on a place. I have been several times..for free and I still despise the place. The only time I like it is when I go over to watch the WSL tour when they are at Keramas, I do enjoy watching that

I hope this puts a line through fifita's name IF his name was on a Roosters list, which I doubt very much. I also hope the Roosters as a club get through the off season without one incident of any kind.

Like father, like son.
Fifta will do time in jail.

Should the Roosters get him before he go's to jail or should they wait till he gets out of jail & then buy him?

Which is a shame as I was going to offer you just that.

Only if you carried my boogie board bag

I took my bodyboard and bag over, didn't magically fill up with a banned substance, lucky me.

Buzz Rothfield is claiming we have jumped into the Fifita sweepstakes.

At the same time there is enormous pressure on the Broncos and coach Anthony Seibold to convince Fifita to stay.

Working in their favour is their Brisbane network of third parties, the most lucrative in the game, which would allow the club to put the giant forward in the cap at a lower rate than rivals.

Interesting.

Anyone here know the rules re 3rd party agreements?
