Bomber can have the benefit of doubt for the moment, I have faith that he will answer.

Is Alex Leapai NOT a heavyweight champion? He may not be WORLD champion just yet, but he could be soon. :wink:

Rugby - maybe only Scotland but we played our reserve side.

Golf - not our problem who decides to show up for a World Cup trophy.

Cricket - nuff said

he's not world champion now and I doubt he ever will be. He's not going to beat wladamir.



PLUS, he's not even really australian.

Not quite "world champ" as such, but another near enough.

More the point an Aussie winning in a sport thats truly the domain of the poms in their own backyard says enough.

Not relying on it at all. One person mentions it and you get all defensive. Last time we played:
Cricket - Australia won
RL - Australia won
RU - England won (granted) but we beat the six nations champs
Football - Australia won

More like once your country was reasonable at sport, exceeded us during a minor spell and now back to being rubbish again.
I guess you have darts to keep your spirits up.

I think you'll find England won the last series in cricket
RL - couldn't care less
RU - ENGLAND
Football - only beaten us once in a friendly, clearly we are far superior

You'll be trying to claim a pan pacific boxing champion who isn't even an aussie next. HOLD ON, you already have.

I know you fear the sea but just because it is an unknown quantity shouldn't deter you as it does. Even the French aren't scared to dip their toes and make the most of their beautiful beaches in their country.
