Do you still have a lot of racism towards Aboriginals Roopy ?....I always imagined Australia to be a very multicultural place to live, and that racism would be very low.

I thought they were actively warring amongst themselves, the abo's and the lebanons?

There's not much amongst younger people - but a lot of older people find it hard to let it go.

We have a fair number of Sudanese refugees at the moment, and for some reason they have a lot of conflict with Aboriginals - go no idea why.

Was the lebs problems 2/3 years ago? Time flies...

It is often more difficult for older generations to see things differently, it usually takes a couple of generations to perceive things differently.

If you are talking about the cronulla riots then that was in 2005.

justarugbyfan has cast his vote. It's tense, it's exciting...

The ockers have nicked a point!

[i=#0000FFSorry it's a little late, couldn't get internet connection last night.

I think the Newcastle one is slightly more tempting; they've stayed simple and not outdone it and included Australian and sport related foods.

Hull almost did it though; the website almost swayed me![/i

Not what I anticipated, but the judge's word is final. Wigan fan, innit, must have fancied the pie.

24 hours to get your votes in for the evictee Hull United. If the result of a tie, it'll will be quickest to answer a simple question on here who survives.

Not wrong there



Sorry Hull United you were very close to getting my vote. I'm sure you'll come back stronger next time and win it for the English

So is it a draw then? I'm confused.

yes, one to go from each team, how's the voting thingy work?

I think,(MR please correct me if I'm wrong) we vote via PM to MR. If it's a tie, then we simply choose the person we want to stay in the comp on here.

Here's what I put on their site (might mix the teams up in a couple of weeks, to breed a more convivial atmosphere.).

'So time for some backstabbing and recrimination. PM me your votes for who you want out. If it is a tie, it'll be quickest to answer a simple question on here, who gets to stay. Once you're off the team you can still vote on future evictions and offer advice, but you're out of the running. Until the resurrection round at least.'

It is a secret ballot, and the banished retain a vote, so lying through your teeth might be a good plan.

Not in this case!

Do you mean Aussie judges will be judging the next task? Not the same three (quite splendid) chaps as this round?

Next task doesn't require judges.

The next one that does, I'm hoping for a New Zealander, a Queenslander and maybe a Manly fan. Aspiration rather than a commitment at this stage.

We are stronger. We will never lose. Together we are UNITED.

Oh, and as an aside, the judges (BG apart) are utter idiots and I will endeavour to be a black shadow over all of their culinary experiences for the rest of their lives.

And my =#FF0000Nah-AS tentacles spread far and wide. Far and wide..

[size=50I agree with you but I thought you were a duck not an octopus[/size

I can morph.

Is it me, or does your duck avatar look more peeved than usual today? Almost as if cheated, but full of steely resolve to have the final say.

The bird is BACK!

Soon to follow will be the star wars man and his red crayon

Hey dont take it out on me because you are missing your nicotine fix!

=#FF0000Nah-AS sounds very much like another word for bum. You rude thing.
