I care enough to have forked out big time for a ticket 6 rows back on half-way and to be wearing a State Of Origin maroon top as I type ... only 2 hours until I'm out of here and down to The Trans for a few beverages ...

These beverages follow the couple I've just had at the Down Under Bar ... hey, bikini service on Wednesday too, bonus!

Queeeeenslander!

Bloody 'ell Vim keep that quiet:eek: hubby starts a new job in the city next month and he'll find his way there if he finds out about the skimpies:curse::curse: Don't tell me they sell Guinness as well:ohmy:
Enjoy the game:thumbsup:

Re: State of Origin
 

Alas no Guinness, the closest you can get is Tooheys Old, which is my favourite drop there ... it is also only $3.80 a PINT.

Being trying to find a decent drop of the black stuff for ages but will continue my arduous task ... and if ANYONE can recommend a place for an Irish Coffee that is made RIGHT then I'd be grateful, anyway ...

Fridays is also good at the Down Under as they do "Bag The Stag" and have a couple of raffles ... I won over a litre of Bundy there last week.

Beats the hell out of the overpriced and overcrowded "Grand Central Station" too.

Rugby League is the best sport in the world by a country mile. I can't wait to go to my first Origin game next year.

Go Rabbitohs!!

Re: State of Origin
 

Excellent result despite the one eyed ref;)
That first blues try was never grounded! It got replayed loads of times at our club during half time and never came close.
Ahh well all's fair etc:D:D

Re: State of Origin
 

Pronounced 'Marone's' ... :confused:

But then we also have Pasta, Yogurt, Data etc etc etc ... :D

Re: State of Origin
 

According to the commentator, historically the 'marones' haven't fared so well in Sydney. I still know **** all about it, but I do prefer our blue kit to that poncey purple... :lol:
