Default Australia V Great Britain.......

Being shown live In NSW and delayed in Melbourne two hours late on the same channel, why?

Should be Australia V GB

Surely you don't expect logic when talking about Australian TV schedules

True, it just seems strange. I saw it in the guide at 9.30 and presumed that's what time it started, then had a look on Sporting Life and it's started.

Fantastic effort by the Lions. A great win. Must be especially hard to swallow for the Aussies that Leon Pryce "the man who prefers Blackpool beach to Bondi" had such a good game at them at stand off (or 5/8th as its obligatory to call it over here).

I wonder if it will cause Phil Gould to shut up for a minute in his entire life ? Probably not......

Have a read of this from the Aussie press. Willie Mason punches out one player then puts in a late elbow in on another and the SMH takes the view of "good old Willie - isn't he great "? This country has been around over two hundred years - maybe its time to grow up a bit ??

rossifumi will become famous soon enough
Default Great Britain beat Australia 23-12

Great quotes from that wanker Andrew Voss from Channel 9.

1. The GB Team will be nervous right up until the 80th minute.

2. A 6 point lead isn't going to be enough to beat Australia.

Erm...it will be unless Australia score 6 points or more!
