Who gives a shite if they were the first in Australia! :roll: :lol: :lol: :lol: whaaaaa whaaaaa gee .. jealous much :lol: :lol: :lol: Jealous? Video decisions are almost irrelevant in the AFL. They're only being used once or twice a game where the ball may have been touched or hit the post. How sig...

the amount of attention the media have given to country or regional areas
you would think the AFL are the first to do it

You still on the GC LeRoy? If so, good to see the gather round getting plenty of media - so successful in that respects I guess.

AFL having been doing it for a while Leroy. Cairns, Ballarat, Alice Springs, cairns, Darwin …. Not a new thing in afl. Leroy didn't infer it was new in the afl he said the afl are carrying on like they invented elite sport in regional australia ... they carry on like they invent a lot of things whe...

I cant believe how big the build up to this Rugby League Derby is tonight. I am from Brisbane & it is so embarrassing that Rugby League is the most popular sport here. It makes us look like the biggest bogans to everyone else. I mean imagine going to England or America & a city had Rugby Le...

Penciling this in for next year me thinks. They should look to having it over a long weekend though - which would be good. My only issue is that accomodation will be through the roof. Two games in Barossa apparently next year so a trip to a few wineries would not go astray either.
