    and of course animals aren't just used to name teams, they are an integral part of the various games,

    In cricket there are ducks,
    In golf birdies and eagles,
    In bowls we have goldfish...

    Cheers,

    We've already run out of names, We just add "roos" to the end of anything.

    Of course the Rugby league team wasnt smart enough to do that.

    Except , of course, in the case of the Matildas. Why this name was chosen instead of the more obvious one: Sheilas Who Play Soccer, I can't imagine.

    Well in Rugby Union Justin Harrision (who is a prop??) does push-ups with George Gregan on his back. But thats alright because George is only a half. All these years and he never grew up to be a 5/8. And how Jeremy Paul can be a Wallaby and a Hooker as well is beyond me???. I never saw no Wallabies hangin out in the Cross!

    Have you ever seen the size of one of those mothers. I saw an NFL linebacker in full kit on the Footy Show standing next to Blocker Roach and Blocker looked like a child next to him. Imagine something like that hitting you at full speed.
    I've been to a lot of gridiron games and believe me, it can be brutal and there are just as many injuries as League.
