Regarding the media coverage....this is a terrible thing to happen and it was covered on most of the sydney news bulletins last night. While the ch9 coverage was pretty offensive and devoid of facts, kudos to ch7 and ch10 for sticking to reporting and not taking the chance to put the boot into this community at a time like this. And equally thumbs up to the police who never made any suggestion of anything other than that an investigation was underway.

No need to dwell on those clowns though, let's keep this about Tom and Gerard.

Well written Nick, and DOOF I'm with you mate, can't think of what it's like to be their mothers this weekend. My condolences to the friends and family and hope they are getting lots of love and support at this time.

Not knowing either of the guys, is there any way in which this community can do something for their mother/partners, maybe not in time for tomorrow but in the coming weeks, to show our gratitude for the men they helped mould? be it anything as simple as some flowers (but coming from a few hundred people this seems a little tame) to raising some money for partners to assist over the coming months, Even mow their lawns, whatever?

If there is someone more in the know then count me in when the time comes, or I will see what the response is like.

saw the channel 9 report. RIP. such a sad series of events.

however, it's great to know the level of respect "journalists" pay to such good people. instantly jumping on every little bit of information and making them see like the enemy. Ironically SAU is the most responsible club i know and one of the few that have track days in melbourne.

Most importantly though, at least their family and friends won't buy into such lies and be able to respect them properly.

channel 9 makes me sick.

    • Robertson was a Canadian inventor, and it absolutely reigns supreme here. 95% of our screws are Roberston. It's literally the only option you can buy off store shelves. What would it have lost out too? I believe it's also very popular in the US.  My reference to imperial was pointed to both NPT and BSP. 
    • No. BSP lost to the cultural/technical imperialism of living next to Trumpistan. Face it, Robertson screws were better and still pretty much lost out to the yank stuff. The Europeans hate the Brits and they don't use NPT. NPT is just as "imperial" as BSP is, being based on those useless inch thingos. Just done differently. 
    • I live in Quebec. Our license plate slogan is "Je me souviens" Translated is "We will remember" as a reminder to when England conquered us and that we must never forget what they did. Long story short, BSP is unheard of here due to being an English design. I'm surprised our nazi anti english government office the OQLF hasn't kicked in my door yet just talking about it, yet alone imperial anything.       
    • Thanks for that! I did a quick Google search looked up some of hydaulic stores and didn't see it listed on the website, I'll give them a ring. Also found out later that I can buy 2 oem bleeder bolts for 10 bux and come with the washer which I might do so I don't waste the money it costs in petrol to find 2 washers (already did that lol). The old copper washes look in good nick, I drove it after taking it off and putting it back on and didn't see any  Part number here for reference if anyone needs: 14053-42L0A
