    I don't see a problem with Melbourne getting a bledisloe. I think that it was ridiculous that Sydney had to have one for the last 7 years. Give some others a go. Why should sydney be the centre of the australian rugby universe.

    The only way we would get a bledisloe here is if we have a 60K seat stadium and the Government backed the bid up with cash. That is how Brisbane got one this year.

    I dunno. Might have something to do with the almost certainty of getting 70k+ people through the doors for a Sydney Bledisloe.

    Chuck Norris has the greatest Poker-Face of all time. He won the 1983 World Series of Poker, despite holding only a Joker, a Get out of Jail Free Monopoly card, a 2 of clubs, 7 of spades and a green #4 card from the game Uno.
