Dizzy Goddess Extraordinaire Registered: 01/14/05 Posts: 21264 Loc: North Queensland, Australia	I think I`m as close to heaven as a Queenslander can get. State of Origin football is the toughest of all games and tonight we kicked New South Wales` butts so hard they will think twice about setting foot into our state again. From the time the team ran onto the field with the roar of the crowd behind them you could tell it was something special. Everytime the Queensland side ran the ball the crowd chanted Queenslander Queenslander! It was a magic game, it`s just a pity there are only 3 Origin matches a year. They take the best players from across the league and they play for the pride of their home state. If you get the chance to watch a match on any of your cable networks watch it. Even though you won`t understand a thing you`ll see the toughest men face off with no shoulder pads, no helmets...just pure guts. Oh and for the ladies....they wear shorts. Most of them are what we call Prawns (shrimps for you guys) They`re called Prawns because you tear the head off and keep the body. _________________________ "Do not wait for ideal circumstances, nor the best opportunities - they will never come. - Janet Erskine Stuart

Well I am glad you enjoyed your evening of watching Sports TV I assume you mean rugby ?

I forget the rules for smear the queer, but basically it was a variation of the game dodgeball if I remember right. The person with the ball would throw it as hard as they could at someone and they tryed not to get smeared _________________________ We hang the petty thieves and appoint the great ones to public office. -Aesop, 620 BC - 560 BC

SprayTech Vengeance is MINE Registered: 11/12/03 Posts: 10109	it was who ever had the ball ran like hell , to keep from getting drilled by everybody and dog piled on , or just about the time you got tackled you tossed the ball to someone else to get chased and dog piled . It sucked if you got tackled as being on the bottom of the dog pile sucked .......LOL

Dizzy Goddess Extraordinaire Registered: 01/14/05 Posts: 21264 Loc: North Queensland, Australia	I`m being fickle this week. I am a diehard Rugby League fan but the Socceroos are in the World Cup and play Brazil in 3 1/2 hours and my fingers and toes are crossed. Soccer is the last sport we haven`t conquered at a world level and I`m hoping this is our year. _________________________ "Do not wait for ideal circumstances, nor the best opportunities - they will never come. - Janet Erskine Stuart

Dizzy Goddess Extraordinaire Registered: 01/14/05 Posts: 21264 Loc: North Queensland, Australia	http://www.nrl.com.au/BigPondVideo/Multimedia/tabid/262/Default.aspx This is a link to video of origin football, click on Round 17 Best attacking plays and then take your pick between the first and second half or the highlights. Just remember if you watch any of it that you need to barrack for the maroons, the mighty Queenslanders. It is a game that doesn`t match much of anything I normally believe in but it is addictive....kind of like watching gladiators. _________________________ "Do not wait for ideal circumstances, nor the best opportunities - they will never come. - Janet Erskine Stuart

Dizzy Goddess Extraordinaire Registered: 01/14/05 Posts: 21264 Loc: North Queensland, Australia	That's the beauty of the game, you don't get to your line easily and you can't pass the ball forward....that incurs a penalty. It is a game for hard men and there are none of those wimpy shoulder pads and helmets that your guys wear. I checked the links about 10 times by the way and it worked for me each time....I'm paranoid about posting dodgy links these days. _________________________ "Do not wait for ideal circumstances, nor the best opportunities - they will never come. - Janet Erskine Stuart
