- In this episode, I discuss the furphy of selection standards dropping. There is always constant speculation about the standards of selection being lowered due to various factors. Is this true or just BS?

No personal history with SF, but I've encountered this attitude with other selection processes. I always point out that standards being lower doesn't actually help put you any higher on the list ie if the pass criteria was 7/10 and its now down to 6/10, sure you've 'passed' the minimum, but all the blokes who were putting in the work to get 7/10 before are still getting 7/10, and when they go down the list to pick who they want for the job all those 7/10s are going to be ahead of you
Hey Rhys maybe check your mic levels I think they're in the red there's a bit of distortion (decibels)
Seems all good from my end mate.
Hmm strange ok, might be my phone 👍
Thoughts on the importance of TAG E/W with AFP TRT, and state police like TRT/SOG/CIRT/SERT being pretty decent nowdays is TAG rotation a waste of time
TAG is still very relevant and important. TAG's capabilities/responsibilities go beyond domestic duties. I could definitely envisage a situation that would go beyond the abilities of a PTG that would require TAG's help. TAG enhances an operator's skillsets and it's great fun too!
AFP SRT and "most" state tac elements have it in the bag now.
TAG E/W is a waste of time and detracts from both units ability to focus on current threats. Having to maintain a team on short notice for domestic duties puts too much strain on the already undermanned, under resourced command, overall diluting capability.
Because the command is so under resourced. The capability is mainly held and argued for because there is a dollar sign attached to holding that capability for budgeting etc..
And besides if you go to the command with the dream to conduct domestic duties.. you'll be frowned upon... go join the cops...
