depends on how close it is to buildings, how well-built the buildings are - but mainly on how close to the surface it is.

The earthquake in Newcastle back in 1989? was only a 5.6, but becuase it was close to the surface and the buildings affected were up to 100+ years old - there was extensive damage to many buildings.

what do people expect in a show about bikies ? a fucking Richard Attenborough documentary ?

if you want to see real bikies in a real show, just watch the CCTV footage of Anthony Zervas getting his fucking head belted in with a steel bollard at Sydney Airport a few years ago. Over and over again.

That is some real bikies doing real acting. Plenty of real blood as well. And real death. Is this what you would rather see ?

FFS I am so sick to death of whingers whinging about the acting in Bikie Wars.......its just a TV show for christs sake.
