should be a goer me thinks , "footy" being the affectionate term Aussies use to describe the local football code.
Geelong already has the Cats for AFL, which I think is kind of a lame name which cancels out the coolness of the name Geelong. It's a good thing that I told them I barrack for the Kangaroos when I started my job because the boss was a zealous Cats supporter and I never would have heard the end of it. And nobody with any sense goes for the Roos since they range from mediocre to crap so I'm completely neutral in the office.
In terms of great club names, it is hard to beat the Parramatta Eels NRL, although I would probably go for the South Sydney Rabbitohs because, haresfur. And the name is delightfully weird.
This little bit of WTFfery, which I looked up briefly enough to go "oh" and move on... just scored me some points in a trivia match:
15 players per side vs. 13; five points for a try vs. four; three points for drop goals and penalties vs. one and two respectively; certain applications of post-tackle procedures, scrums, and lineoutsâthese are among the differences between rugby union and what other, quite similar sport?
Although I almost put Australian Rules Football but something kept nagging at me...
I took a hiatus from making shirts for Every Damn Thing⢠but I'm back at it...

I checked and Adelaide is on the edge of the Australian white ibis range, so you just squeaked in. I was getting set to compare you to those Asian companies who do bad translations of American culture.
Never mind that Adelaide is an Australian Rules Football town. Their team is the Crows so I suppose an ibis would be a good match for rugby. Rugby League, not Rugby Union, of course.

"As imagined, this trend has in turn created a concerning shortage of doctors in towns that donât have the resources to treat half-pissed medicine students to a chilly afternoon drinking wine until they begin making out with each other in the back of a mini-van.
Towns like Blackwater, Mt Isa and Broome have responded to this challenge by trying their best to grow grapes, but inevitably settling for craft brewery tours â which has resulted in an influx of overweight of trainee doctors with sugar headaches in these historic mining areas."
