Topic title is missing the Toast prefix.

Devastating news. Been waiting all year for this - even booked my flights and bought some green and gold face paint.

You have serious issues.

 

[TooUglyForFugly]

You have serious issues.

I took it as a pisstake.

 

[King Hansen]

Resting for finals next year.

 

[Horace]

Lots of *essendon players though. If Ireland wins the game and then *fletcher and *hairless heppell get suspended by WADA, will Ireland then get the points?

 

[QueenslandRoo]

I took it as a pisstake.

Yeah I know. I was also taking the piss.

 

[Gasometer]

It was only good when they boxed on.

Stern look Scotts

 

[Mr Reliable]

It's a pity a few of our boys will miss out on seeing and hearing the Fanatics in action, live. Very inspirational group.

reminds be of a gag i heard this week,

" an englishman walks into the bar, there would normally also be an irishman a welshman a scotsman and aussie there but they were still at the rugby world cup"

 

[TooUglyForFugly]

And Australia lost by a pissy margin. Derp.

(I don't have the patriotism to care about a one-off match that does nothing to develop relevant skills for the AFL comp)

International Rules is the sporting equivalent of coming up with so many alternative dates that you trap someone into catching up when it was pretty clear after 5 x "I can't do that night" responses it probably wasn't their calendar preventing things.

Australia "you still up for a composite rules competition? we'll play 2 legs, use a Sherrin for one game and a round ball for the other, AFL rules in one game and Gaelic for the other?"

Ireland "ok done. we'll play only 1 game, you'll need to come here, you'll need to pay us, you'll play with our rules and use our ball".

The real objective - the all expense paid overseas junket - has to be shared too. I'm sure the AFL would wish to tour every year but the Irish make them share that as well.

Interesting that *fletcher continued training and doing all the work till the end of the season at *essendon but chose to have his farewell game as an International Rules game.

Perhaps *he felt that was a better way to be remembered than wearing the *red and black disgraced jumper for a final time.

Still played his last game in something that was completely irrelevant. And for a bunch of losers.

If we'd played Boomer and Goldy we would've won. True story.

Reckon our 'team mates' would be trying to take out Goldy ahead of next year.

 

[Saintly31]

Goldstein deserves a place over there, Higgins and Cunners maybe, but...........

..........i'd much rather all be improving under our pre-season methods than wasting their time on the international rubbish.

 

[Jesslc]

wouldve won with goldy.

 

[ShiNoBi]

North doesn't associate with gambling industry... that's why media doesn't gives s**t.
But I like this clean, innocent team which doesn't smell like money.

 

[benbanjo]

The only benefit that i can see from this game is publicity for the AFL, otherwise its so boring....

i couldnt even finish watching the highlights.....

 

[TooUglyForFugly]

I only found out via ABC Twitter.
