    Joshua Tree is the best U2 album.

    that's not a hot take is it?

    Might be controversial. About as controversial as anything else in this thread.

    Considering that everytime U2 is mentioned it usually results in screams of 'Bonocock!'

    U2 were a pretty good band in the 80s

    That was a long time ago now

    a posting history as storied as his will always leave a bit of a hole.

    I will say that, because i spend the majority of my time in the sports forum, i haven't missed him much...

    Vegemite > Marmite.

    Windows > Mac

    @Snowy isn't actually a serial killer.

    I could go on and on.

    You guys can miss BSG as much as you want. Personally I've been in mourning since 15/3/2014.

    For those not as up with the play about Sports like I am this was the day of Frans Bothas last fight.

    You see, this is the kind of vociferous passion and debate this thread is about. You're welcome.

    Absolutely Vegemite and Windows.

    BSG, I wouldn't say I MISS him, but equally I didn't particularly want him to go either. He was a smart guy, and provided an alternate viewpoint that typically had a well thought out premise at least.

    I'm not touching the Snowy debate with a barge pole

    @MN5 wouldn't the baron being the Fran's Botha troll be the best prank ever?

    here is my rugby hot take that nobody has ever agreed with me in. EVER.

    I say do away with the penalty for deliberate knock on. If you can get a hand to the ball from an inside position, then feel free to knock it down. Why the fuck not? What are we protecting against, people diving out of the line to try and knock it down? Surely that creates dummy opportunities. And its not like you'd ever knock it down if you had half a chance of catching it

    I think the constant debate over whether a guy tried to catch it or not is bloody painful.

    Come on, who is with me??? [Insery Jerry Macquire gif here]

    Although the baron vpn-ing to an IP in the Waikato would be the cherry on top.

    Well I started and finished with a "here" so I'll assume you meant the latter one.

    Good to have you on board bro
