As an engineer working in the energy sector here is how I would solve our energy crisis:
Cancel net zero, what Australia does in this space is pointless.
Given our isolation have one year's storage of petroleum products.
Build an energy sector that utilises all of our bountiful resources, such as gas, coal, nuclear and some renewables (rooftop solar, geothermal, hydro)
Prioritise energy security and cost to consumer.
Build refinery capacity to meet our local needs. The refineries should be flexible to support different oil crudes.
For energy exports follow the Qatar model, local use first then export to drive down costs.
Drill baby drill and consider technology such as Gas to Liquids and biodiesel to shore up our oil reserves.
Produce all of our own fertiliser and adblue locally. The gulf crisis has shown the folly of our current approach.
Whatever the question is Hydrogen is not the answer.

@hawthornzone He should pull an injury or play the personal issues card, sit the season out, get paid and get traded.

@veritym14 @FOXFOOTY Premiership player😂😂😂 it was the Covid cup, bit like being a pre season night premiership player

“A step too far …”
A Docker’s controversial gesture towards a Melbourne rival tonight reopened old wounds — and has sparked calls for a new rule to end the “ugly part” of our game.

According to David King, the time for excuses at Essendon is over and one man in particular needs to stand up.

@DamianWhite42 Any chance the skipper could go forward and give us a target and the opposition somebody to worry about. Frampton, Howe and Maynard can handle most oppo talls and if not use mcstay

Asking for a friend…. If Tom De Koning @stkildafc is getting $1.7 million a year what is Max Gawn @melbournefc worth ?

@PrimeWalsh And why he only gets the D grade support team of J Riewoldt and Mooney. D grade is being generous

@SimonSperling @RitaPanahi @SENSportsday ….. no it’s actually 3 of the worst hours of sport, every Monday to Friday 3pm to 6pm

@RalphyHeraldSun When the game was gone why not play Caddy back on Gunston and teach the kid workrate and forward craft at AFL level

@tommorris32 Didn’t AFL learn anything lst season….no more bombers in prime time FFS

@PaulineHansonOz Keep em honest Pauline, common sense Aussies are right behind you

Jack Riewoldt again offering minimal in special comments: “he may have rolled an ankle here”. Replay shows knee to kidney. Jobs for the boys appointment #AFLBluesTigers

@ausvstheagenda @mattjcan always been a fan but you have had a mare to start. One Nation is the only voice of common sense, I thought you would be another! Still time for you but you were a shit show on day 1.

@7AFL Imagine if this was stringer, Toby or De Goey….these flogs would have them hung, drawn and quartered. It’s almost like they are offended the club were able to keep it under wraps this long. Footy media off to a poor start this season! Time for flush out of these fossils

Daisy: "Were Hawthorn wishing that they hadn't come forward with this?"
Mitch: "It's a catch-22 isn't it? They were hoping this would get through and we'd never be talking about it."

@7AFL Problem is they overate the Covid Cup of 2021 and signed players as genuine premiership stars when in reality they were not. Oliver not the 1st recruit at GWS amazed by their training standards, recall Stringer saying similar when compared to bombers training standards
English

@FootyIsMyJam Agree, Leigh looks like he is perched in a recliner at a nursing home, just needs the knitted blanky over his lap. Sure is overkill with fox, and the old man networks rolling out the same old tired show formats with lazy journos who rely on social media posts as there main source
English

Reckon I’ve watched this show maybe twice since it went from Garry, Browny & Bucks to Jack Riewoldt and the leftovers crew.
And it’s 2026 it’s time to put Leigh Matthews in the vault.
