I don't know what history books Bachar has been reading but Aussie rules wasn't an indigenous game it was developed in Melbourne by a bloke called Wills about 140 years ago.

Mates bumped into Bahcar in Instabul and had a bit of a chat with him. Said he was an absolute legend.

probably history books that mention "marngrook"

The differences between marngrook and the game that Wills "developed" are probably no more than that between the game we watch today and what wills and his mates played
“For My thoughts are not your thoughts,
Nor are your ways my ways,” says the Lord.
 
“For as the heavens are higher than the earth,
So are my ways higher than your ways,
And my thoughts than your thoughts."

Yahweh? or the great Clawski?

Al that doesn't mean that they invented the game and that it is their game as Bachar is implying. I always see Aussie rules as an Australian game and don't try and racialise it.

soccer was first played in Italy well a form of it where they played with a criminals decapitated head and the first team to kick the ball out  of the village boundaries won.. but it's nothing like what soccer is today that the poms think they invented

Bachar is out !! late change for dea. Whats wrong with him?

On 3AW they said he was "a bit sore" so he was being "rested"

Huge mistake if he could have played

Missed his run and carry from half back

Dimma in his after match presser said Houli had "hamstring soreness"
