Why are they climbing that post? is that part of the game?

[EnvellFen]

soccer is called football in my world
i think its part of the game lee, though my knowledge of inferior sports is lacking

Inferior sports? Huh! They're not climbing the post, that's in the background. They're leaping straight up in the air to catch the ball. If it were inferior our AFL players wouldn't be poached for other sports all around the world. They jump higher than basketballers, have better ball control than most soccer player and can kick further than just about anyone else. They really are all round athletes. They have to be able to do it all and at a run. Plus we don't go on rampages when our team loses. That's always a bonus.

but rampages are part of the game. the fun part.
...wait, what was that about controlling balls and being good all rounders?

So they are called 'Eggs' then? why not call it Eggball - the ball is about the right shape and all your players get poached.

have better ball control than .... I can control my balls just fine thank you

Plus we don't go on rampages when our team loses. That's always a bonus Unlike New Zealand whose team goes on a rampage when they lose.

C'mon now children its only a game. Temper temper. I am sure your sheep still love you.

Thanks for the intention of rep.

And no worries mate - if France win good luck to them. I have always liked the way you guys play Rugby. With passion and flair and to always try and run at the opposition whenever the chance arises. the only two things that seem to stop you doing better than you already do is lack of discipline at times and sometimes the fighting spirit seems to go bye byes.

Of course against NZ you proved that you have fighting spirit aplenty.
So it seems that perhaps Englands main chance is to ruffle some French feathers and see if your guys can keep their cool.

Hopefully it will be a good game but I don;t think I will see it - will still be travelling back from Iaido squad training

Why don't they catch it with there feet, it's football after all

have better ball control than most soccer player.

You mean they might have better ball control than rugby players , why not call it australian rugby.

They really are all round athletes. They have to be able to do it all and at a run.

I guess but what's for sure is that the use of feet is obviously limited from a world viewpoint at least (minus 3 countries) in the australian soccer err i mean football

Hey Sats +rep for the ball control comment hehehe, the perversion is strong with you...*darth vader heavy breathing sound*
