Football is where you have the offense and defense and 4 chances to make a 1st down plus cheerleaders.

Football? I thought that was baseball. Offense and defense and four chances to get to first base plus cheerleaders in the Koshien Alps.

Or have I been in Japan too long?

>Bern – What about us Australian’s of Danish descent ? Are we convicts too ?

Haha. Good question. Maybe:)

Rugby is called rugby. Football is football. Feet and ball:)

As for the whalng debate I don’t think the two countries can come to an agreement by the looks of things. It’ll be interesting to see how things evolve.

It would be good if Scandinavian and Australia was closer as we could get into this mud slinging abuse.In Copenhagen Denmark when Denmark tore Australia into pieces in football the Danish fans were singing. My grand father was a rapist my grand mother a whore. Taking the piss on the Aussies. I thought it was hillarious. Australians who were waving their inflamatable kangaroos sat down.

It is racist to be against Japanese whaling. Australia is trying to impose their values onto Japan. Coming from Norway an another whaling country. I think Australia is a very close minded country and Japan equally incompitent in the negotiation process.

Norway hunts commercial they set their own catch limits. Japan gets grilled due to a white imperialistic mind set. Japan should have lodged the objection back in the 90s then they could by now have at least hunted commercial and not get grilled for the scam science non sense.

Australia makes me laugh. The kangaroo killing whale huggers. The leading country in double morals and hypocracy.
