Come Come Ivan, the men? have had their day showing off in their brief shorts ,it's now time for the females to shine. I think the faces of all those little girls watching their elders shine on the field has made their day. We can't go all Taliban on them now can we.

Re: GB News
We will see.
Currently the media is having a filed day with all of this.
If they Oz win the cup the PM says he will declare a public holiday.
One small problem there, only states can allocate holidays not the ferals.
So far two have said no way.


Happy daze John in Oz.

Re: GB News
Well we may have lost but from my point of view that has shattered the dreams of many young girls as to how low one team will go for glory, in a competition that showed up the men for their good behavior and games man-ship England degenerated the game into what was the dirtiest of all the games played in Aus and NZ, my hope is that they don't have a comp like the Ashes..

Re: GB News
Yes, thankfully no public holiday.
Good match and I see what Des said.
But as with all matches different vies from different people.
Thought at the end the Oz girls were not well respondent to the thanks of the English girls.
But the goal scored by Kerr was a cracker of one, well done.
