    You have until Christmas to answer this Poll and then I'll repeat it at the end of this years trial, see if we have any swinging voters or not!

    It isn't a political post bg, I am genuinely interested in peoples opinion on this matter and if it changes due to a trial.
    Apart from recording my single poll vote there is nothing I have portrayed to bias others opinions one way or the other in this thread.
    I think we are all broadminded and "adult" enough to make up our own minds one way or another.
    I believe the poll options to be diverse enough to be a pretty clear indication of anyones opinion.
    If you don't like this thread, as opposed to all the others on various nonsense, well stiff.
    It is current, it is topical and it will affect either in a positive or negative manner (only time will tell) our collective Western Force experience.
    If it remains an issue for you then take it up with Coach.

    Im all for finding out what every one thinks of it too! only because I dont really have an opinion and it would be good to hear their ideas pro and cons... I think we are all adult enough to handle this thread

    Burgs baby, you're talking to us now and your views are pretty transparent. Having said that, publish and be damned. In the mangled words of Voltaire , I disagree with everything you say, but will defend to the death your right to say it.

    this approach has been working successfully for surfers and beach swimmers for many decades.

    one of my work'mates' said today that last night he and his housepartner stayed up drinking until it got dark then they went to bed. my next door neighbours sit out the back and drink til 1 or 2 am every night pre-DST. this approach seems successful for them.

    Perhaps the number of people going to the beach after work now can be monitored. I imagine DST will allow the drunks at the 'newspapers' to see what swill they are quaffing before they have to go home.

    I voted 'Ridiculous' based solely on the fact that in Sydney I'll now see 1 hour less of the Perth test each work day... bugger

    I just half-heard much of the night's coverage of day 4, Adelaide (from 12.30am over here!!!), in between pitifully short snoozes, because there was a hurricane blowing down my street & I kept getting woken up - I figured if I wasn't going to get a decent night's sleep , at least I could hear a bit of cricket...
