Better than watching the boys in Lycra,

Not when they wear red pants and hold up their flowers but better than all of that are those big beautiful all blacks

We have to let NSW wint the first so as not to totally annialate them!

Something the field ballet group haven't managed to organise yet ... but probably too hard for them cause it's based on the state you played your first senior league game and apart from Victorian they'd be battling to scrap together enough people from any one other state wouldn't they?

Probably that's what it was, nothing to do with the fantastic 4 being split up now and Qld left wandering around looking for direction

I usually don't agree with T1 with his 'less than informed' comments about Aussie Rules, or aerial ballet as he calls it .
However, I must agree with Origin though. Aussie Rules used to have interstate games in the 60' and 70's but when Origin started in 80's the AFL honchos tried it (State of Origin) a few times and the results weren't what they expected. No longer was Vic the champion state. Some champion AFL players have come from ALL the states of Oz, some even from the bottom half of NSW. No-one plays Rugby League in the Riverina, they all play Aussie Rules. All the school grounds and footy ovals have 4 posts at each end.
Having said that, it is hard to explain the passion footy fans find at Origin time.
Go Queensland.

Just found this on Youtube. It goes for a few minutes, so will consume a bit of data allowance.

It's the 1995 Origin biff just a few minutes after the game started. Some real hard men played footy back then.

He is meaning AFL Kay..
Speaking of him ie Terry Today was my first day out so we did the Mannum mob trip, had a beautiful Kumera (sweet potato ) and chicken soup all mushed up and it was very nice indeed. I even had 2 bowl fulls and Margaret gave me some to bring home for tea. The usual lot were there ie T&M, Brian(Homeless) Wendy and Bruce and George Myself. Just a quick visit before the fun starts on tuesday and I may not feel too much like going anywhere so it was nice to see the old mob after so long. Roads pretty quiet and home right on dark so the roos were good and stayed away from the roads.
Thank you M&T for a really nice few hrs.

It was great to see you both and see you looking so well. I could nearly understand some of what you were saying, but I never really understood all you were saying before they cut your throat so things haven't changed much
Best of luck on Tuesday, you are only getting it in the neck, Margaret will also be there Tuesday but copping it some where else
