Found a quote from the Bureau of Statistics - "In 2006, 9600 persons held Brumbies memberships"

haaaahahah sorry but i find that quite funny. isn't the ACT the 'best place to be', 'better than perth' place? oh yes, and you can't even fully support your own rugby team even though you have wallabies in your team aka julian huxley, mark gerrard, stirling mortlock, george smith etc?

ACT isn't as big as WA....nor has it anywhere near the population...

ACT the best place to be? Methinks not.

I was reminded of an old Good News Week joke:
"Feel the power of Canberra- stick an appendage in an electrical socket"

Lebanon FFS ?

I think Hasim El Masri is Lebanese...by that alone Lebanon is obviously a thriving league community....according to league journos.

so? its a shove in their face proving that we're better than them. its probably a weak argument i know, its just that i really despise people in canberra.

Quite right - in fact, they'd be the only place in which Union is the first football code and they have that membership with maybe a fifth the population of Perth. I'd've said the support levels in NSW and Q'ld are laughable (the "rugby heartlands" and all), but the ACT deserves respect.

'Fluff' on the side to add to the meat of the forum? You know what I mean, it isn't a league or AFL forum, hence why a fair bit of schtick would be given to other sports...do you honestly think people don't do the same of AFL or League forums?
