National Anthem

[Reidy's Bottle Of Grecian]

when it was done at the aussies in christchurch a quantas jumbo 'buzzed' the stadium and drowned it out. it has been used for sponsorship purposes by them prior to games as well. they get money, the opposition get their concentration broken and whatever your reaction to it is they seem to think it's gloves off time and carry it into the game.
brian o'driscoll could tell you a tale about that

That Quantas thing is quite impressive. Nice thinking that.

 

[Reidy's Bottle Of Grecian]

they got fined, theyd been doin' allsorts of delay tactics apparently to time it right and it was impressive.

Fair dinkum to em. I like their gamesmanship.

They like to win.

they officially became the worst all blacks in history that day as well by losing their 5th test on the bounce, i found it most amusing as the whole population "took the knock". kind of like in norway when the r/s get beat.

I have no idea what this threads about, Im just trying to cover up the fact I posted in the wrong thread and realised after the fact.

So carry on, Im headed over the bar for a bourbon. I havent had one yonks.

 

[sarath]

i'm surprised that no1 has mentioned i vow to thee. Perfect national anthem with perfect lyrics IMO

ours starts like...

australians all eat osssstriches,
for we are young and free....

If they sing then theyre racist.

Players from Merseyside should always sing something from the Beatles or Frankie Goes to Hollywood instead of the save the queen bit.

What if they sing it, but while they're singing it they're thinking about Holly Johnson? That'd be ok, wouldn't it?

 

[chicoazul]

Oh defo, thats alright.
