There is a military concept of Intelligent Disobedience, ie critical thinking and going against orders if they are unlawful and unaligned with a greater principle. Eg the constitution.

Love that last paragraph.
Thinking cleanly and critically is key.

Refreshing tbh.

Yep. Itâs called âsoftening the battlefieldâ in military parlance.
Switch focus to what you can control, make a plan, adapt & overcome.

Yep. As long as Cuhna stays fit Vitor has stabilised defence. Although weâll miss Aggy, confidence is returning.

Sheâs a threat to them. Uncomfortably like Navalny âwasâ to Putin, inching closer to that.

This has echoes of the movie âStarship Troopersâ, it immediately reminded me of that film.
âconsidered a cult classic and a prescient satire of fascism and authoritarian governanceâ.

âIf youâre not at the table, youâre on the menuâ.

Yes, well I guess Emperors need their âGamesâ to help distract.
âAnd here, representing Glaxo, Smith Kline and BeechamâŚ.

Worse is that others believe they are great at everything.
Think itâs called halo effect.

So possibly didnât âexcuse himselfâ when he saw potential conflict of interest.
Thought he was stopping corruption, not diverting it.

And of course, games are rarely 90 minutes these days, 100 minute games not unusual, those last extra ten minutes, often crucial, played at full speed on tired legs.
It all adds up.
Steadily killing the goose that lays the golden egg.

Feels vaguely reminiscent of Vietnam & Afghanistan, limited, egocentric thinking, which, of course, you canât shoot either. đ

Apart from ability (which is impressive) his positive attitude, smiling demeanour and humble yet assertive style is great in terms of shaping a strong supportive culture.

Hoping Ryan Leister and a few more Wolves fans may tunnel out & join here. I deleted my account way back, too toxic for me but miss some of the lads.

Thanks. Lived in Australia for a while & struggled to get past Sydney Morning Herald.
But was once told it was So Much Hate but that didnât seem to make sense.
Appreciate it đ

Richest man on the planet stops/refuses aid to the poorest.
Think of all the good he could do if he hadnât morphed into a James Bond villain.

Nearly right. Thisâll do them the world of good. JRB shone, defence v good.
