Are you watching the footy finals?

I'm an NRL fan - My daughter (who is 3!) and I support the North Qld Cowboys. We were lucky enough to travel down to Townsville last weekend for a game, which was great fun! If my Cowboys are in the finals I like to watch, but that's about it really! So far we are in the finals and I'm so very happy about that - Go COWBOYS!!!

Are you talking about football or American football? I can't stand either.

by Bryony Harrison

Definitely not American football or Soccer (commonly referred to as "football"). NRL is Rugby League as played in Australia.

Is rugby in Australia like Rugby in England, then, rather than American football where they use the helmets?

I think it's more like English Rugby...although English Rugby is rugby union and generally considered a more "upper class" style of football...

Thanks, Lizzi.

Not really into it, I just haven't got the time to be totally honest.
Maybe one day.

I'll take the opportunity to do some writing while other members of the household are occupied with beer and cheer. I love footy for that reason!

Not yet. If the Bulldogs make it into the Grand Final I will be, but otherwise not.

No. None. No. Not in the least!
Majority of mass (male) sports provide fodder for the mindless.
No different to 'Bread & Circus' of Ancient Rome, although ticket prices now would be a rip-off!
