    Semi Radradra

    Ok guys everyone has their own opinion on Semi and his domestic violence charges. My personal feeling is the NRL should be standing him down until he faces court. I realise he may be innocent but there's been such a history of this shit in the NRL. I am very much a passionate league fan but this...

    Going away what do I do?

    Stone and wood pacific

    G'day guys as a lover of my galaxy hops I finally found a six pack of this Pacific ale at the bottle shop. I was a little disappointed with it.
