Why, oh why, is Pavlich at CHB? Choke-o has NO idea.

That would be the dream time team maybe!?

There was an all indigienous tean a couple of years back, they played a game against the Western Bulldogs in the Northern Territory. I think I still have the game somewhere.

Regardless, this is a joke.

How the AFL can celebrate 150 years of football but only Victoria is represented as a "team".

As much as it will be a top game skill wise, the idea leaves a bitter taste in my mouth.

Completely agree with you Dave.


State of Origin (when players actually cared) was brilliant. This is just a token effort for the sake of doing something for it's 150th bday.

Imagine the day (not that I can forsee it happening anytime soon) that the club vs country debate starts up.

And no, international rules doesn't qualify.

Your not thinking of the Essendon v Richmond "Dream Time" game are you? Thats a "celebration of indigenous contribution" to the game I think.
