    Their game against the St George Illawarra Dragons is in Sydney. It holds 83,500. The only question is will it be big enough?

    Did the Aboriginal people turn up with the other Founding Fathers or convicts as they were more commonly known?

    Just reminded me of the film Walkabout with Jenny Agutter. Think it was the first time I saw a mott on tele.

    I know, there must be some equivalent in Australia based around similar criteria. The only definite is that there won’t be many Aboriginal people amongst them.

    Don't think they had any input in the founding of Australia. The same as the North American Indians output in the founding of the USA, or the Aztecs, Incas and Aztecs in the founding of Peru,Mexico etc...

    The equivalent, after Capt Cook's expedition, was known as the first fleet, one of the ship's, the Alexander, was from Hull. Fact.

    For anyone in Sydney for the FC game Friday night, there'll be a decent following getting to Cheers Bar on George St Saturday morning for our game with Chelsea.
