No there are FOUR who claim that.
I watched a lot of "Footy" ( I think that is what it was called) as it was pretty much on every channel at night. Is it the same as Rugby? Or are they two distinct sports?
Even we here can't agree on what is 'Football' so depends who you ask, "we are a weired mob"
Lots of European immigrants built this nation so we fight over the word. Poms and Wogs.
Soccer. - Football, it's played with your feet, wogball - but the only true World game. The biggest league in the World. If its plaed with you feet that makkes it football.
The others are pass and cuddle the ball or kick the thing before anyone touches me ball. (Currently watching Tottenham vs Liverpool as I type, so I've shown which side of the fence I am on)
AFL . - (Australian Football, once called VFL as it was only played in Victoria but went national ) Tight shorts and long hair lads from your visit here ? Ariel ping pong, but the speed and amount of goals make it a good game to watch. These guys are seriously fit in an aerobic sense.
Rugby. - Unprotected blood sport. Played in a lot of the old colonies of England, you escaped that ignobility but that’s what Brian and Ian were poking each other about. It’s a "Ditch thing" the bit of water between us we have come to call the ditch. By there are so many NZ folks living here (because the homeland is crap - not my own words, their own) it makes little difference. We really are one, just attack one of us and see what happens, ANZAC you may have heard of.
Rugby League.- similar but different to the above Rugby, all but nobody else plays this. Faster than Rugby but still a blood sport played by human refrigerators.
FWIW that telco is still a SNAFU organisation many folks hate.
So YOU are the one who is responsible for the load shedding software that has taken their network down at least three times IIRC in recent times.:mallet:
