Best thing I ever saw Chrissie Amphlett do was play Judy Garland in the stage show "The Boy from OZ". She stole the show, she was brilliant

you'll often hear a "go pies" or two during the minutes silence at anzac games

similar level in the food chain i suppose.......

Nice respect shown by the bum sniffer brigade last night....

Nice generalisation there

I was at the SOO game last and the majority did the right thing. I was disgusted with what took place.

The morons in the media who are suggesting it was the interstaters who did it and not melbourne folks are just plain ignorant.

But please don't tarnish everyone there with the one brush

Yes must've been locals and Australian Rules fans yelling out "Queenslander!" and "Gallen's a wanker!".....

Again very poor generalisation, actually extremely foolsih.

There were 91+ k people there

25k people came in from interstate

To suggest that the only people yelling out came from the 25k interstaters is ridiculous.

It doesn't matter who did it, it should not have happened. It was disgraceful behaviour

But I suppose it's easier to blame one group than to whack our own even if they deserve it.

From where I was sitting, it wasn't just the interstaters who were moronic bogans
