pretty much, i'm sure some English supporters will turn up, but there will be 20 odd thousand Lebanese supporters or more
Its hardly surprising, they use it as a kind of cultural get together, you can easily imagine when Pakistan or India play cricket in England, you get the expat factor, a cultural get together, a big party |

Is it the cultural angle that stops Aussies attending?

No, We're a more discerning consumer, we're more likely to go for a higher standard like State of Origin or NRL games, theres nothing to be garnered from a cultural event at the footy, i'd assume its more of a minority thing, & good for them
You'll also find a lot of young men, same as Bulldogs games, it serves as a night out for a lot of them |

Thanks for the explanation. The Americanisation of sport into a homogeneous glittery promotion to non-discerning masses is obviously very attractive. |

A 60' TV, a few beers, a comfortable couch & the game on live is also very attractive, whats not attractive is the spread out size of Sydney & traffic |

60 foot telly? That's obscene. I bet your pint pot holds a gallon. |

Standard size if you like your sport
No pints, too big, go warm too quick |

I bet your stubby holder is one of those bikini shaped ones. No real man would be without one. |

If you were a real man you would just pop open a cold one & neck it in one. |

Looks like George Williams is playing, it’s not been announced who is dropping out though. I’m not a fan of changing the halves unless someone is injured and we don’t have a choice.
Maybe Widdop to #1??
