After obtaining the Higher School Certificate (HSC) at Cranbrook, Kerry decided it was time to toughen his son up to prepare him for the world of business. Thus, James was sent to his father's extensive Newcastle Waters cattle station in the Barkly Tableland of the Northern Territory, where he worked as a jackeroo. His father dismissed the idea of sending young James to university by saying "Why would he want to go there? To learn how to smoke marijuana?"[4]

disappointed that 'jackeroo' has nothing to with marsupials and just means cattler or whatever

kerry packer has legernd status on channel 9 for commercialising cricket & thus ensuring that all the expros who speak of him in hushed tones make a mint out of their profession

obviously a ruthless & brazen exploiter, but fortunately Test cricket is a sufficiently resilient & alluring mode of sport to survive such encroachments

whether James Packer is sufficiently resilient & alluring to survive his reputation being dragged through the mud is moot, however, as this episode has probably endeared him to his public

he has no public as far as i'm aware, but also no need of one.

exquisite avian

What reputation? he's a skeezy casino magnate. Google 'barangaroo' (also not a marsupial).
