[quote="Troppo"]What MOTR said!!!

Measure the bastard up for a five star cardboard box, if you have to.

The A-hole is guilty as charged for self aggrandissement schemes and not deserving of any sympathy at all, a'tall. The Stones suggested that even t'devil deserved some modicum of sympathy in '69 - can't come at it m'self.

As a [b]yiddisher[/b] godfather, the knob was as ruthless as they come, and f--k whoever runs last. If $ could achieve his desires, it was spent - and big time.

This is not an individual to lose any sleep over. C--t.[/quote]

Unnecessary and irrelevant.... his Jewishness is of no consequence in his shady dealings, except for the antisemitism that it invariably unleashes....

Nutmargaret. Gold. LOL. Just written for the knob!

Oh, and for those on the board sensitive to the slightest sign of ethnic vilification, please put your microscopes aside and get a life. If you can't take a specific reference as tame as my earlier reference to the cardboard knob's family origins but ignore my specific reference to him as a c--t, then you have a serious lack of focus. A liberal democracy such as we currently enjoy in this fair land of ours allows freedom of opinion. History will establish the credentials of this tosser to be even more virulently poisonous than I have portrayed.

Swoop42 your comments are disgraceful.

Nobody wishes on anyone the pain of dying of a disease like prostate cancer. But as Collingwood Turtle and Magpie Greg put it, this guy was the biggest corporate crook in Australia's history.

Sure he's gonna give some back to the plebs, it helps his tax bottom line.

As for the comments today from Lindsay Fox accusing Graham Samuel of causing this illness, what a total idiot.

These boys from the big end of town sure can dish it out can't they? But they have notoriously glassy jaws when criticised.

As for John Brumby and his 'Great Australian' line, what a crock! Just the sort of spineless utterances we expect from politicians.

Carlton and crooked presidents go hand in hand; always have and always will. George Harris and his chopsticks, Pratt and his cartel and I forget what Elliot was eventually accused of. The 'born to rule' mentality is bound to produce abundant crims and Carlton attracts them like flies to s--t.
You've got to be joking. Either lighten up or open your eyes and take another look, she's a super freak, I've seen better heads on a pimple.

P.S- Out of the two of us you were the only one taking a few pot shots at the dying Richard Pratt. If anyone is a disgrace it is you!

And when he goes, what happens in a couple of years when the FAB FOUR,the Scum centreline, want huge payrises on their next contract ??
No Pratt, no paper bags of money, no set up jobs ala Judd, the gravy train from the ol guy will have dried up. How will the scum meet their new stars demands for big,big payrises ??They are skint now.!!
As for him, my sympathies, all his money cant help him now. Such is Life.

I wish you could get it right.
Pratt built Visy on one princable that makes your statement completely wrong.

His ethnicity has nothing to do with the fact that he was a crook.

Troppo's comments are just plain nasty, snide & anti semitic. Oh that's right its just a little joke, a little barb rationalised by being offensive - "others should get a life & a microscope" Troppo's comments are full of hate about a dying man. He is not nor was a tyrant, a dictator an oppressor.
Yes he was a wealthy man - which I suspect is Troppo's bugbear.
His employees as indicated on this posting have said he was a generous man. I personally don't know him form a bar of soap but I'll take Father Bob Maguries little note of support in Todays Age stating the Pratt's generosity both materially and spiritually over Troppo's hateful post anytime. I normally enjoy reading Troppo's posting as relatively insightful - from afar - but on this occasion Troppo's hate filled posting reflcets a lot about Troppo, Culprit & Nutmeg - not much about Pratt though.
There is humanity in Swoop 42's posting - Something conspicuous by it's absence in Troppo's, Culprits and Nutmegs et al postings.

Culprit's reference to "Jewish Stocktake" is blatantly anti-semitic.
Are there any moderators here?
If Nick's permits this sort of behaviour then a complaint should be made to the Club.
