    Here you go fella's...real football played by real men. Watch it and see how much tougher this is than your NFL.

    hit the "play video" and watch the final STATE OF ORIGIN game.

    Yes...I am geeing a few of you up. I mean no offense and most of you seem pretty cool.

    Do yourselves a favour a watch some of this game and let me know what you think. How does it compare to NFL in your opinions?

    You'll see that the Defense does have a lot of similarities...

    You'll also see a pretty decent game of football. :)

    Link was bad the first time.

    Try this : http://nrl.com/video/index.asp

    Pick state of origin. Game three.

    Enjoy :D

    First 10 minutes of Origin are always smash each other. Watch the rest.

    Can you honestly say any of your guys could go that pace , that hard and that long?

    Not a chance. Your guys play 30 seconds and stop.

    Our guys stay on...they tackle, they run, they do it all.

    How can you call someone an 'footballer' who can't even do more than one thing?

    Um, wtf are you talking about? I really don't care who a "footballer" is, and what you think of them. I don't care who can run, and for how long. (I mean, what the hell is the point if its not entertaining? I'm sure many NFL guys guys couldn't run a marathon, but who really gives a damn?) I'm not into the childish "our guys vs. your guys" thing. (Football and Rugby are two ****ing different sports btw) All I know is, that was some boring sh*t you just posted on the bbs, and I demand an apology for being urged to click on it.

    You "demand" an apology? For trying to show you there's other games and contesting your right to self love claim "world championships"

    Like you want your waldorf salad fixed? (The Poms will get that)

    Oh...and a 60 minute game that takes four hours is really entertaining.

    At least we don't play 'sport' just to fill in the time before the commerical breaks...


    W@nker.

    so a dude can just kick the ball into the endzone (or whatever it's called) and if his teammate just makes contact with it it's a try? don't even need possession? i was surprised, i didn't expect the first score to count.

    few things, most tackles seem to be made with 2 or 3 people (and the guy with the ball seems to like to run into 2 or 3 people), the people making the tackles don't have to go all out at that point b/c they have so much help, and the other people start relaxing once the other 3 are on the guy. they also get time to rest b/t the try and kick and then they went to commercial after the kick so that's more rest.

    oh and rugby players don't have a monopoly on lung capacity and endurance just in case you didn't know.

    It's 'Vegemite'. And I think SRJ is being what we call a dag or a hard case. I wouldn't take him entirely seriously.

    Dude, you're still not getting it.

    I DON'T CARE.

    You don't like American football? Fine. Sometimes I don't either. But if you're going to provide a link to something that's supposed to be so much better, it damn well better be. What I just watched sucked. You think I find 60 minute games that take four hours entertaining? I DON'T. But the alternative you just gave wasn't any better.

    No, I demand an apology for false advertising. Being told I was going to watch something better that football, and only seeing the same boring sh*t with no commercial breaks. But wait, it wasn't the same, my bad, it was worse. Like I said, somebody put a move on someone. Spin, jump, juke, hell I don't care. Just do something.

    And what's with this: "contesting your right to self love claim "world championships"

    When the hell did I do that? Is that just how you categorize all Americans? Listen, buddy, as a black male in America, I really don't need anything else to be stereotyped about. And definitely not something as stupid as how I label championships.

    And finally there's this:
    "You "demand" an apology? For trying to show you there's other games..."

    Well I humbly thank you then, cause my dumb, American ass had no idea. :rolleyes:
