No, anything...like talking to that girl you never did...or getting Benny's field goal over the bar...or that time in your teen years, when you thought you were indistructable...

I wouldn't change my teen years. Growing up in the 90s this was before social media it was a better time to be alive. You met up with friends and hanged out, now we just connect online.
 
I would change Wests Tigers starting to shaft contracted players. I feel poetic justice followed us from that point. Gibbs, Ryan… then Sheens, then not following through with Benji and Farah getting their money, the list goes on…

For me, it’s not if the above was commercially or rationally justified at the time, it was the beginning of the Tigers family becoming the Tigers employees to becoming… it’s just a job.

It all started to go down hill when trust was broken between club and employees

Social media is an actual cancer to society. It was supposed to make people more connected, instead it has made people less connected than ever. It allows people to stay connected without having to do the actual social work, creating loose, uncaring relationships. It fuels culture wars, tricking people into spending their days hating on things/people that truly have no relevance to their lives. I wish it would go away, but pandora's box was opened and it can't be closed.
 
I used to think if I could turn back time, I'd change things - relationships, etc - but then, if I changed anything, I wouldn't be *me*. So, I always think, if hadn't done what I've done, I wouldn't be who or where I am now.
So, if I could go back, I'd stop my idiot ex swapping MY HQ for an unregistered trailer, and MY TC Gemini for a postie bike. That's it. That's all I'd change 😊

Hahahahaha, that brightened me up a little after a different pair of similarly poor efforts from our WT in a week.

The algorithms and billionaires that control them are the biggest problem, followed by governments that don't regulate or do enough legally to stop them controlling their constituencies.

Worse still, some control legacy media too, and are buying up more of both.
