We are voting for the #2 thread of the year, obviously. There is only one possible candidate for the number one thread.

Criteria?

Does the thread need to have been created during the financial year or can an older thread that good quality posts during the year qualify?

C'mon David, if I'm doing your annual performance review, you're not getting your bonus

^ I've been following the former criterion, but I will consider exceptions on a case-by-case basis. ;)

If it’s a Trump thread to quote Terry Wallace “ I’ll spew up” :P

Rather than creating threads like this David, you need to be watching on repeat the 1970, 1979, and 1981 Grand Finals until you finally stop being some weirdo Pies supporter who has a soft spot for the Blues.

Until then, you should hang your head in shame.

It has to be the Coronavirus thread (s)

Informative, full of drama yet also elements of comedy and tragedy.

1: There is only one Covid thread, it just happens to be split into two parts. (Please, please, let there be no need for a Part 3.)

1: Quality? You want quality? The thread has me in it. And Stui You don't get better quality than that.
