*Official* First Test at Trent Bridge

[Adders]

rules are rules imo.

Bollocks to the rules imo. If they are stupid, then change them.

 

[Spikey]

Arm all the Australian fans with vuvuzelas

 

[Burgey]

Judging by the rugby yesterday I presume Australianism is going down with no fight or character. Cricketers to follow in the next few weeks.

Umm, no one in Australia gives a **** about rugby mate. It's the fourth football code here, played exclusively in the People's heartland between Randwick and Neutral Bay by the Bunyip Aristocracy who are born with silver spoons in their arses.

No one cares about it. The Wallabies had their time in the 90s. Something as soft as a soufflé never rises twice.

This song should play every time Burgey lays down the law: Lettuce - King of the Burgs - YouTube

What about the 84,000 capacity crowd in ANZ stadium last night?? We're they lured there under some kind of false pretence??

Jeez you are prone to spouting some ****e Burgey.

 

[Ruckus]

It's called "another great reason to get pissed"

 

[Spikey]

The same night 85K people attended another Hawthorn loss. A truly memorable night for those lucky SOBs

How long you been here? Seriously, if you think rah rah is a widely loved sport here you're kidding yourself. Three men and a stray dog support it compared with the other codes.

ANZ stadium will be full when the superior code rolls into town for Origin III.

 

[Maximas]

Well Adders is pissed about the trumpet ban, but seriously, we're just lucky Backlash isn't an English fan, we wouldn't hear the end of it...

 

[Spikey]

and it was full for the WC qualifier

Rugby is undoubtedly the 4th code. Of course, if there's a bandwagon to jump on, it'll be jumped on

 

[Ruckus]

Is origin actually popular outside of australia? never knew that

 

[Burgey]

I think a few of the CW crowd in England and in NZ might have a squizz at it.

 

[Ruckus]

fair enuf. Gotta think its down to Phil Gould's commentary. What a man.

 

[Tangles]

I watched Origin from the US when it was on but I was raised in Sydney so that hardly counts.

I love you too man.

Burgey is right, just how long have you been living here Adders? You don't seem to have much of a grasp on Australian sports. Union is about 4th or 5th in the pecking order and it's never do much better than that.

It's funny when Kiwis move here and find out for themselves. They always end up so devastated. They actually thought they were beating us at something Australians cared about.

 

[Ruckus]

Where would people rank cricket in Aus and Eng respectively?

2nd in Australia, but it'll go down.

I'd guess 3rd in England.

Opinions on Buggerby's adminstrators, pls.

 

[Ruckus]

Hmm would surely be a tight 2nd. League and soccer must be close. Even tennis couldn't be too far behind, although it's probably dropped somewhat in recent times. What would you have in 2nd for England?
