Well true story, I do know to stay away from the tele come footy finals time if the Pies are playing. You know way back in the day when they played the 1990 Granny I didn't watch it till the game was done and dusted. Knew if I did I'd jinx them. All those other times they've played the Granny and lost? It's because I watched the whole game!

Depending on the season I can get excited if the Weagles are doing well but I do recall being mightily peeved the first year they won. And YES!!! Dockers need a makeover!

It was interesting... I'm still trying to figure out the rules to rugby though.
#15 on the Titans had a massive red beard but he didn't seem to be doing much.
You watched the dud game! The Broncos Dragons was much better.

Yeah, I only saw the last 45 min,
but the Eels were doing a great job at showing the Titans how to lose.
I believe the score was "20-something" Eels and "2" for the Titans.

Is NZ apart of the National Rugby League?

NZ has a team in the NRL, but if there's something to give NZ credit about, it's their choice in which football code to follow - rugby union.
Also, don't get sucked into watching aussie rules. That sport is the devil.

I have to say I've never really cared much for AFL but after watching the Grand Final I must say it would be up there for the games I'd love to play and watch after American Football and Union/League.
