Ask anyone involved in country footy and they'll tell you it's hard to find enough players to make up teams anymore.

who did you ask? Victoria isn't the only place Football is played, many leagues are doing ok "at the grass roots"

Polynesians (with rare exceptions) wil never take to our game. They have size and strength yes. Skill - no. Fatui Attata ring any bells?

I wasn't talking about polynesians crossing to Aussie rules, it's the other kids getting crushed by them, hence the talk for a seperate class of game for the polynesians as parents don't want their kids crushed.

Shit I NEVER realised that you have to be a skip to support an AFL club dude... Wow...!!!
I was born overseas so obviously, I'm NOT a skip, WTF am I doing supporting Collingwood for over 40 years along with many other non skips I know? Are we all wasting our time and money mate?
Shock! Horror!! I think it's time to tell you to stop bloody generalising and that quite a few (even dark skinned) non skips like me barrack hard for AFL teams dude and not ALL of us particularly like soccer or rugby enough to become club members...... |
