Oceantamer said.. This is a shameful disgrace in my opinion, that they let this Shark Magnet float into a metro beach cause they are all to disorganised to do f*** all about it and frankly they don't give a ****. May the blood rest on there shoulders should someone be killed in the weeks coming.
I believe they should have towed it to sea at 1/4 the fuel range of a military helicopter armed with a 50 calibre machine gun. They should then have anchored it there. Then every day morning and night they should have dispatched the chopper and shot and killed every f***** shark that was over 3m in length feeding on it. They should have continued to do this for weeks.
So why are they not doing this? Why are they not protecting public safety? Why? Cause they don't give a **** that's why, they don't use the ocean, they don't go in it they are not at risk like us and they don't give a **** if we are killed.
Take it out past Rotto where they dump the dead and live sheep carcases (The ones that broke legs whilst being loaded at Freo) from the live meat export trade, anchor it there and dispatch the armed helicopters twice every day.
You come in here for the first time with this one bogan, aggressive "shoot em fkrs till the end" post!? I reckon you're a local, signed up under a different alias and posted your guts out. What a tool
just drove past, looks like its still there, and you can smell in for half a km driving north, all the jus seeping into the ground is going to make scarbs a magnet for sharks this summer.
i rode past it once it had turned onshore and nearly dry reached from the smell they dont need the guy with the megaphone telling people to stay away from it anymore as the smell has cleared the beach
On the radio this morning they said they under-estimated the size and weight of it. 17m and around 30 tonnes. The diggers were inadequate. The plan is to chop it up and take it to land fill.
Scarbs is already stuffed as Ray has said as the oil and fluid leaching into the sand will be there for weeks. Reckon Brighton and Scabs will be sharkey for alt least a month.
When a whale died on the reef up north where I stayed and was picked clean by the sharks and fishies, we were still getting big Tigers swimming upcurrent looking for it, long after the bones had fallen apart and the slick had ended.
I was down there this morning - i feel bad for the businesses along the front - you would have to close up shop the smell is that bad - and on Melbourne cup day...
Sureley this could have been handled far more proactively
- i'm spewing as Scarbs is my only realistic option for a wave due to family and work commitments.
ANZAC spirt the Diggers would be disgraced being associated with this behaviour more like a Twitter narcissist Winston Church'dill sending 1000's on a death charge.
Human sacrifice to help mates.....
Is the writer a liberal party spin doctor.... Attempting to use pride, courage and human sacrifice for mates to have story appeal.....at any cost.

Natural selection clearly failed in this case. Another clueless knob head polluting the gene pool. I'm living in the USA at the moment and I thought the world's dumbest people lived here. Not so it seems. Wish he'd been eaten.
I just heard there is another dead whale off Port Beach now being chomped on by sharks. I wonder wether they will let this one wash up on a beach nearby.

Suprise, suprise, they're towing this one out to sea.
