    Why are many Aussies so narrow minded ?

    Cheers mate. And yes, be my guest :D

    Why are many Aussies so narrow minded ?

    That is absolute nonsense. If it were about Australia wanting to dominate a sport internationaly, then Kangaroos matches would get the sort of ratings Origin does. It doesn't - people here don't really care about internationals - they care about their clubs teams. Besides, we have a sport that...

    Nine forces ANZAC Test to remain in Australia

    Scrap the test. It's played in a ridiculous time of the season and no one cares about it - we ought to just have a straight 3 test series with the Kiwis at the end of the season.

    Why are many Aussies so narrow minded ?

    Accents are what you're talking about here. The game remains utterly unchanged at the fundamental level: the rules. None of these countries have influence the game beyond a merely expression within its static architecture. This is quite different to the three other football codes we play, whose...

    Rugby League Live 3

    Your level of enjoyment from a video game is a pretty subjective thing and I enjoyed the game, so I call bullshit on your imaginary 'objective' call. I guess what it comes down to is do you want a rugby league game at all? If you do, then you have to be a little realistic about what you...

    Why are many Aussies so narrow minded ?

    Read the post - the point was that the three traditional Australian codes of football have had their fundamental DNA impacted by Australia, whereas soccer has effectively remained static without any of its adherent nations actually altering the fundamental structure in any way. This is true...

    The 2022 World Cup may not take place in Qatar

    Yeah, I wouldn't want to end up like some loser with 29 thousands posts to his name plugging the LNP on a footy forum...

    The 2022 World Cup may not take place in Qatar

    I'm just gonna go ahead and assume your education lacked a tertiary component, but if you go have a look at the grammar rules on past versus present and future tense, you'll notice that in my original post I neve used the 'past' tense, which indicates the process is not a complete one. Here...

    The 2022 World Cup may not take place in Qatar

    Do you often demand sources for things you're already aware of? Oh, and as you're the forum's resident LNP/Abbott fanboi, I'll ignore the politics student comment.

    Wanderers fans at it yet again!

    100%. They're living in denial about the atrocious state of their own house. There ain't smoke without fire as they say, and soccer is producing plenty of smoke - and not just from their euro-trash aping flares.

    The 2022 World Cup may not take place in Qatar

    Thanks for this - just watched it. Absolute gold - good to see not all the soccer types are living in denial.

    The 2022 World Cup may not take place in Qatar

    Not actually a guardian reader, but I tend to trust them over a country with their track record. I'm glad you're comfortable with it though.

    The 2022 World Cup may not take place in Qatar

    So you believe a bunch of Sheiks and Blatter over the sources cited by the guardian?heres another for you Twiz http://www.newrepublic.com/article/117818/qatar-2022-world-cup-pace-kill-4000-migrant-workers-says-espn Good to see you soccer boys sticking up for your man and keeping your heads in...

    The 2022 World Cup may not take place in Qatar

    Google it, and stop being a f**king apologist for these arseholes and a pack of f**king medieval Muslims hosting it.

    The 2022 World Cup may not take place in Qatar

    I wasn't using it in the post war GI slang sense, but rather in the more literal sense that Sepp Blatter is full of shit. Point is, that pile of walking shit has come out and affirmed that he isn't going to be influenced by "outsiders" and move the WC from Qatar, who retain his full support...

    The 2022 World Cup may not take place in Qatar

    A little late to post this news, but didn't Septic Tank Blatter affirm his full support for the wholesale murder of 4000 immigrant slave workers in Qatar, thus ensuring that the 'beautiful game' would certainly have its show piece played in what is fast becoming the world's first ever stadium...

    Wanderers fans at it yet again!

    This was always going to happen at some point, but the fans are cracking quicker than even I thought they would. That said, speed of their fall is truly something astonishing... I can't remember a team going from champions to bottom feeders in such a short time since the Reds in Rugby, and even...

    Why are many Aussies so narrow minded ?

    So just to answer Sam's direct points to me: In what sense is our sports culture not "indigenous"? Was RU/RL imported from the UK? Sure. Was Australian Football influenced by the Irish? Sure. But in all three cases, and in particular with the Australian Football, Australians have been key in...

    Why are many Aussies so narrow minded ?

    Will adress the rest later but three points briefly: 1. Immigrants don't automatically watch soccer. I'm the child of Swedish immigrants who watch soccer (which is why I played it as a kid) but I don't like or enjoy the sport. Why? Because I grew up in a country with alternatives that I found...
