Why do England struggle to produce undisputedly great players?

Also, why the **** is no gravy seen in any breakfast pic? What do you guys dip the bread into?
Good lawd!!! Gravy for breakfast are you ****ing kidding me?? The egg is there to dip your bread in FFS and the beans if you so desire.

Just back to the pictures of the various breakfasts from around the world which were posted last evening, it's no coincidence that the Australian breakfast had the most fresh ingredients, grown and served in a sundrenched oasis of beatific grace, compared to the other stuff on offer. This is why we have produced the most ATG players.

Yeah but we all know that no one actually eats that here Burgey........I'd wager that more people in Aus eat Bacon and Egg Mcmuffins than bloody cereal, yogurt and fresh fruit for breakfast. (same is probably true in Blighty itbt)

Also there is **** all to do in Australia outside of sports. You got ****** internet, no culture, and 99% of the wildlife can kill you.

An island full of people who no one cares about that has nothing else to do. No wonder you all become great athletes. The food is boring af as well, but I will agree that it's very healthy.

the wildlife thing is a myth really

snakes are about the only thing you have to worry about generally and you combat that with thick boots and clothing (and being smart). there's crocodiles too but like **** stay away from the dodgy lagoons


we don't have any mammals that can kill you (tiger, bear etc) which personally would be the scariest thing to encounter for me, because you can't really outrun them nor outfight them

Outrageous slur upon The Land of Milk and Honey.

Australia. Great country. The best, I like it. It likes me, it said nice things about me. I'll make it great again.

But the spiders. Big, bad. They're venomous. Awful. Nasty spiders. Sad.

Yesterday I posted a mile long list of Australian inventions which prove we are not only the most athletically gifted nation, but also the most ingenious. As long as that list was, it took mr_mister but a moment to list another world famous Aussie invention which I had overlooked.

There's millions of them. And you know who invented them all?

Me. They're huge. The best. People come up to me all the time and thank me. They say nice things about me. I like them. Crooked ***** doesn't get it. He's, he;'s not a nice person. Nasty man.

Because the beans don't have gravy at all.
I see what's going on here......you mean a sauce not gravy. Gravy is something you pour on your roast dinner (not on the roast potatoes though.......never on the spuds!!)

Edit:

I actually was in an Indian restaurant in Melbourne not long ago and in the description of every meal they used the term gravy........I walked out.

Am going to Seminyak on 5 November for my birthday week with Mrs Burgey, the twiglets and our parents. We are staying in this villa where they have a chef who comes in every morning to make whatever breakfast you want. I'm going to ask for a few of the various suggestions in this thread, because I could never be ****ed making them for myself.

Being Bali I'll have the squirts anyway so it won't be like any of these options will do me harm.
the classic sawtooth approach to weight gain in south east asia - never fails.
