The full teams for the public debate are below. Please come along to the Laby Theatre at 6.00pm on Tuesday, 15th of September for what will surely be a fantastic debate.

On the Affirmative team:

• Professor Simon Barraclough, School of Public Health, Latrobe University
• Laura Bellamy, Melbourne University Debating Society
• Dr. James Best, Head of the School of Medicine, University of Melbourne

On the Negative team:

• Professor Thomas Davis, School of Political Science, University of Melbourne
• Dr. Michael Walsh, CEO, Cabrini Health
• Dr. Chris Wright, Medical Director of the ICU, Monash Medical Centre

Also, apologies for last week's Hamish Malcolm ladder update. Whilst all points totals were correct, I stuffed up the individual points for debates. This has not yet been corrected, however it will be once I have the results from last night's final round.
