Bradman ... Phar Lap ... Cathy Freeman

aaahhh greg j how can u go without footy food!
I couldnt go to a game without my traditional chips soaked to buggery in salt, vinegar, sauce then more salt and vinegar hehe! Enough to give u a heart attack if Collingwood doesnt already! 3 bucks 30 just for that though but i think i make up more than 3 bucks 30 worth in sauce and shit anyway hehe! it is so expensive to go to the footy but with all this extra crap and if u are crazy like me and go from morning till night like to 2 in one day then its heaps dear! U know wot Collingwood should do --->make one of them transport passes like Saints so u dont have to pay for train as well. Then u pay for everything at the start of the year---> gate in memberships and travel in the transport pass then once the footys on u dont need 2 take as much money. Sounding a bit scabby now but the AFL r just such robbers sometimes!

JOHNNY HOWARD isn't game to say sorry to the aboriginol people of the lost generation because that would be admitting the Government was wrong and then it would cost billions in compensation. Anyway Well done Cathy!!!

Bradman,Phar Lap,CAthy Freeman?I may just be an ignorant Pom but I can see that Cathy Freeman is a fair dinkum Aussie from way back and I can see that the Don is a true blue Aussie albeit full of northern European blood but Phar Lap!even I know that Phar Lap is a friggin KIWI so come on Aussies you can't have that one it's bad enough you try to claim Kostatzu.I have to say though congrats on the Olympics they were the best I've ever seen.
Ps come on the Hawks

OK. I admit Phar Lap was born in New Zealand. And he was owned by an American. But he was trained in Sydney and did all his racing in Australia (until that ill-fated American campaign). So I think we can claim him ... sort of.

In any case, never let the facts stand in the way of a good story.
