Congratulations to a humble primary school teacher with 17 pro fights under his belt beats an 11 time world champion superstar with 67 fights under his belt. Wow. Jeff Horn won the majority of the rounds I’d say 7 to 5 ...

Jeff Horn can now respectfully request a fight with Floyd Mayweather in Las Vegas Nevada.

Australia needs a bigger trophy cabinet after Horn’s win at Suncorp.

Politicians have been granted a 2 per cent pay rise to help them to survive owing to “economic conditions”. I hope a full 2 per cent increase to help pensioners with the cost of living has also been scheduled.

Where can I buy pink lamingtons on the GC ? – Julie

Just calculated the new pay rates for my staff, Sat & Sun same per cent as before only public holiday 0.2 per cent down. It’s the Sat & Sun that’s killing small businesses.

I agree with Doug the truckie, if these young drivers don’t know the left lane is the outside lane they shouldn’t be driving on our roads.

Been waiting on Government Housing for over a dozen years only to be told to go somewhere else or a nursing home. It was very hurtful and disgusting. I am an ex taxpayer and an Aussie. But if you come from outside of Aussie you are more than welcome. – Disgusted Aussie.
