Shame,
(Slightly harshly), beaten by France in the WC,
Beaten by the Irish in the egg chasing, and looking good for England against them in the cricket,

I'm sure there's a few tinnies being sunk in misery over there at the moment....:):):)

Shame. But they were so gracious in vitctory when they were on winning steaks a few years back that I am sure the victors will do the same

Aussies will be justifiably proud of their efforts, albeit gutted with the outcomes. Fantastic competitors with an almost ALBIONESQUE team spirit :clap2:

Well done! Rare to see them lose so much...

I was firmly supporting the footbsllroos tonight but I nearly choked on my cider when Craig Foster spoke about the way Australian sports teams were always honest and fair. :)

Played really well against France and unlucky to lose. No dramas over here.

How the **** would you know? AFL is the #1 sport in the nation. It dominates the sports media during the winter season.

Unless a lot has changed in the last 10 years that's only true in Victoria. NSW and QLD go more Rugby League and (to a lesser extent) Union, ahead of the AFL. There's a good reason why the majority of the teams are Vic teams in the AFL.

Victoria 10 teams. And then 2 each in NSW, QLD, SA, and WA. And some of those non Vic teams were historically Vic teams (e.g. the South Melbourne Swans -> Sydney Swans).

This. Today's Rugby Union was played in Melbourne in front of 30,000 people but no one in Victoria will be talking about it :rolleyes:

And South Australia, Western Australia, Tasmania and the Northern Territory.

Australian Rules is huge in those States and Territories.
