Well the Indigenous Aussie side vs Ireland has been yet another complete flop in the ongoing flopathon they call 'international rules'
It's clear the lads have always seen it as a bit of a joke and a laugh, a chance to get overseas with the boys and sink some piss in irish pubs.

The AFL would be better off promoting it as such, rather than trying ohhhh so hard to make it look like a serious sporting competition. So hows about we help the AFL by all thinking up some new names for this comp?? Comon lets be productive and help out!

I'll compile the names and send em on down to AFL HQ :D
My contribution is:
The international pissup and friendly hybrid game
or
The Brendan Fevola cup? :D

Bull. The reality is that the Aussies aren't as adept with the round ball as the Irish.
We should play these games pre season, not post season.

I just don't know where'd you begin with this abortion of an event E
why are they still embarrassing themselves with it

>
the Irish I mean
why are their part time pig & potato farmers wasting their time flogging full time professional fumbling bumbling clowns from the Sthn States of Australia
we all know these singlet wearing wankers lack any athletic or sporting ability
Why are the Irish not seeing this as their bakers & candle stick makers smash these bumbling sthn mongas ( some on a million a year )
who most Australians consider an embarrassment as it is
Fumblers say their players are great
but when you put them up against players from other sports in competition .. they are exposed as the bumbling unco clowns we leaguies always claim they are

:_<> :_<>
it was Billy Slater first .... running rings around their best in Rexonas greatest athlete
& now
the Irish smashing them from Corke to Donegall & laughing at their silly Victorian game in the process

Yes a real flop. Only a 17k sellout crowd and then 28k to watch some very ordinary football.

Why do they have a knock on rule - because thugbies drop the ball.
They even have a rule because thugbies don't know the difference between forwards and backwards.
Gee, not too hard is it. Will I throw the ball forards or backwards? I think I'll throw the ball forwards. Penalty!!!

Yeah and RL players can only hand the hall over - which makes them even more pathetic - a bit like you!
