@ Inandout

Kimbo: Anything without evidence is speculation, unless of course you hold that oral tales have been handed down verbatim; I have heard Chinese Whispers being played out, and the results are quite hilarious.

Presence of Polynesians when those from other parts of the world (Tasman in 1643 and Cook in 1769) first made recorded contact with New Zealand: Check

Genetic, linguistic, botanic and archaeological evidence that the colonisation of the “Polynesian triangle” commenced approximately 3,000 years ago from the Bismarck Archipelago, and was done so in a relatively orderly and systematic fashion: Check

Proven ability of the materials and skills available to the Polynesians to complete the task of colonising Hawaii, Rapanui/Easter Island and New Zealand and all points in between: Check

Absence of any other evidence for an outside group aiding or facilitating that series of great migrations: Check

But if you want to call that “without evidence”, go for it – although I’d suggest the only “hilarious” ” Chinese Whispers being played out” are in your head…

“The thing that gets me about this is that the Ockers are not a great side at all”

This is the weakest Australian side I have seen in over 20 years…

@ Longknives

This is the weakest Australian side I have seen in over 20 years…

Weakest…or with the relatively high number of newbies, unproven?

Also, as with the All Blacks, there is no such thing as a “weak” Australian cricket team?

“Sonny Bill and his open support for Mundine and his Terrorist ideals is something else entirely”

To put it mildly that is drawing a long bow LK. I think trying to smear SBW has nothing to do with terrorism and everything to with your irrational hatred of the AB’s.

And it really is scraping the bottom of the barrel.

He may be friends with the excrement known as Mundine, but that does not prove he agrees with the idiots comments. Everyone has friends they don’t agree with on some issues. I have a friend who thinks 911 was an inside job. Batshit crazy yes, but in every other respect he’s ok. That’s just life.

” your irrational hatred of the AB’s.”

Are you talking about the bigot blouse or Longknits? They’re both the same person.

Shawn-
SBW and Mundine are by their own accounts ‘inseparable’..
Mundine was quite outspoken in his support of the 911 Terrorist attacks and killings.
Fuck them- If I had a “Bro” (see what I did there?) who supported Islamic Terror I’d be washing my hands of the guy real quick..
