Why Are Aussies So Hated?

Tokyo 2020 which has special significance to me as my father (Darryl Perkins) raced the Olympics in Tokyo 1964," he said

I didn't know his old man raced. That's kinda cool. Pity Oz won't select him though. Perko was faster than most of the other Aussie sprinters. Who else do they even have? Glaetzer is the only one I remember doing anything.

It's only stupid if you get killed...

It seems as if there might have been two teams on a pitch and only one of them might have been playing cricket.

Like most things that started in England, we take them and then do them better.

Pakistan still top of the tree with their bottletops and Afridi's biting though.

Wait, are you trying to suggest Aussies are competitive?

I haven't actually watched a match since... 83k at the MCG with Warney still playing.

I don't like the idea of bottle caps near my balls (although that's usually where the end up when I become too drunk to throw them at the coffee table).

We bat above our average on the world stage...

Haha! But not fussed either way about biting?

Little bit of teeth action keeps things exciting I like to think.

I'm in Sydney the weekend after next, I'll bear that in mind

You going for some ball tampering or some teethy action? I've kinda lost track of this thread now.

The 2 aren't mutually exclusive.

True, true.

If you're in Sydney, say hi to Shazza for me.

I'll just keep posting video of Atherton shall I?

Did you mean to post the 185* in Joburg? What a knock, true grit amongst a fucking shit team

Another superb deflection tactic from Big Malc Turnbull, leadership rating going further down the toilet but the media only have eyes for ball tampering... Meanwhile, Manus Island refugees still being treated like criminals and Dutton talking about bringing white South African farmers in because they're in danger from the local darkies... What a steaming pile of shit...

Some perspective...

That is fucking horrible.

Dutton the fascist tried to have a child that was close to killing himself not get treatment on shore. But yeah, cricket.

Ms JJ is an Aussie, and she wonders why I’m not so keen on emigrating from London to the Central Coast. Maybe I should show her this?
