Australia played NZ over there on the way back from a Kangaroo tour of France and the UK just after the second world war.

ESL sides have played a few games over there as well over the years.

yep ... in LA in about 1954

It was nearly called off because of the amount of fog at the time, but they played it anyway, the spectators didn't see any of the game it was that bad.

Who said anything about the BS file? I wanted links and Dave provided one to get you out of a jam because of your habit of not giving when told to give without good reason.

BTW, internationals don't count. I was talking about club exibition games. So far you've only got one proven.

One is better than none aye, the same amount of pro or semi pro AFL sides outside Australia =D> :P
