In Australia it is tradition to gather round our TVs and fill our colossem to watch our modern day gladiators do battle.

The two TITANS of our competition will no doubt compete in another classic.

What kind of bizarre sport did I just watch? Is this some kind of Easter special where bunch of people try to throw around the yellow egg??? ( it looked like they playing with hot potato TBH). It is a bit more entertaining than baseball or American Football - at least there is no pause every 3-5 seconds but still weird as ****.

It is. That game was at the end of a final so everyone was drained.

90,000-100,000 people in attendance. Todays game will be faster than the clip I put up.

When it gets confusing just think NHL, its all about possession, clearing from defense and transition.

Give it 10minutes of gametime and let me know what you think.

How do you watch the game when you have no clue about the rules, scoring, tactics, etc. Maybe when I will be in Australia I will watch it with somebody who can explain and answer questions. Doing it alone is a pain - I once was forced to watch 30 min of college american football game ( it was 2:30 min left on the clock but it lasted 30 min with all the breaks and commercials) as it was before Jazz game... never again I would submit myself to such torture.
