Although Im also a long suffering Wallaby supporter Dougwe it would have even been better if we had beaten them with 15 players on the field for the whole 80 minutes. For a predominately AFL state I was surprised by the size of the crowd - on TV there appeared to be a large number of all black supporters so either WA has lots of expats living over there or the game boosted their tourism numbers (as did the state of origin).
Well done the Wallabies.
Contary to popular belief, WA has the largest population of rugby fans behind NSW and Queensland. Which makes us so mad over here than Rugby Australia pulled the pin on the Western Force and now we have no teams in either codes national competition, even though Twiggy Forrest offered Rugby Australia $50,000,000 to keep the Force in the competition. This may backfire on them as Twiggy is starting his own union competition next year.
Aha one win . Thought they where champions . Love the banter . Its the competition of the game win or lose . Ive received messages from old work mates . Strange gone quiet after last game . Lol
Here too !!
Melbourne finish 17th. Couldnt even kick last minute goal to make a draw, only a point to lose by 5. Ah well, roll on 2020. Hullo Dougwe ? Ah, but wait, forgot about the Storm boys!
