For someone who knows shamefully little about rugby (Victorian ), I always thought League was more popular in NSW and Queensland. At least that's the impression I got when I stayed with some rellies in Canberra, all I got was league, league, and more league.

I did actually watch the league test telecasts, and it was rather satisfying to see Kimmorly (Ex melb storm player )
save the game both times. The ENglish commentators couldn't believe it; 'OH NO, NOT KIMMORLEY AGAIN', you could also clearly see some fully grown men bawling their eyes out in the croud as Kimmorly (sp) scored his tries in the second test.

Admittedly it isn't the world cup, but we still beat them at thugby

Oh well, I guess England has to win something eventually. 37 years is a long time, so I guess the next 37 years will be just as painful.

Good to see a close, competitive match, though Wendell Sailor should be dragged out in the street and shot. Or sent packing back to the Broncos where he doesn't have to tackle or kick.

Yeah, but I think one of the reasons why we do so good in sport (in comparison to ALL nations) is due to the amount of funding that our associations/organisations get since we are such a sport-heavy country
