Doggies maul Bunnies

I finally got to a football match tonight, the second last of the season. It was the National Rugby League second Preliminary Final at Sydney's Olympic Stadium. The resurgent Canterbury Bulldogs conquered sentimental favourites (but underdog) South Sydney Rabbitohs (part owned by Russell Crowe) 32-8. Crowe had flown in from New York to see the match.

The players enter the field before 70,354 people

On the football train afterwards all hands to mobiles

  1. But did they not play last night against Melbourne's Storm. I must be confusing posh rugby against working person's rugby. Whoa, you told me one should not be called rugby, but which one was it?

  2. Dear Andrew, you are such a Victorian!

    Both matches were Rugby League. The two winners meet in next week's Grand Final.

    PS, why are you still awake at this time of night?
