An early tip ... Try to be near a tv next weekend - check out the local footy (or go to a local game). Remember the Fremantle Dockers cap someone (not me) sent you when The Lab first started? While you're Down Under, check out what the game looks like. Its the 150th anniversary of the sport this year, and our National (pro league) comp (the AFL) contains the world's oldest professional football club of any code (Melbourne FC established 1858), a shame they're having a shocker tho. Anyway, Friday night and Saturday arfternoon should be great matches (Essendon v Western Bulldogs 8.30pm Fri night and St Kilda v Geelong Saturday 2pm). Sunday will be big tho maybe not close (2.00pm Sunday) Carlton v Collingwood from the MCG (the site of the 1956 Olympics - it holds 100,000 spectators, not bad for a city of 3.5million and a country of only 20 million). Its a strange game for the uninitiated, but get a local to explain the basics and you'll probably love it! Find out where the current and next batch of NFL punters are being recruited from :)
