Aussie Towns Trivia

Nusadan

Chilla Wilson (44)
Darlington Point, NSW. On the banks of the Murumbidgee River, south of Griffith. Not many MILFs abound, pies should be found in the servos there as well in pubs, Griffith provides the rugby solution.

Previous Yellow Carded town of Bowman - NSW returns to the field, from @Gristlechewer.

In the interests of being a fair sportsman, I really wanted to play BLAND - NSW. But to keep it all in synch i will play

BOWMAN - NSW

Named after Tom Bowmans great grandfather owning land here in the late 1800's , Bowman is just outside of Gloucester. There is a good pie shop. A good pub and a couple of good coffee shops. It isn't quite the home of the Gloucester Cockies RUFC, but its bloody close to there

Next town is N from Bowman.

Nightcliff, NT. Pretty little coastal suburb in Northern Darwin. Get food and drink from the Sunday markets. Try the Vietnamese pork rolls. Yum.

Dick Tooth (41)
Foresters Beach NSW - Not much doing with food, but through the roundabout and over the hill at Wamberal there is the famous Wambie Whopper, a rather delectable hamburger. MILFs aplenty, especially the bogan kind. Nearest rugby club is the mighty Entrance Rams, with Jeremy Paul's Terrigal (aka The Filth) not far away.

Haasts Bluff, NT. AKA Ikuntji. Small indigenous community, and home of the renowned Ikuntji Aboriginal Artists Corporation. "Haasts Bluff" was the breakout artwork by Albert (Elea) Namitjera. With only 200 residents there is no rugby here but head 230km East to the Devils, Dingos, Eagles or Warriors in Alice Springs for your fix.

FYSHWICK - ACT

You can get foot long fireworks in Fyshwick.
You can get footlongs without going to Subway...

Where do you start? Marital Aid Supermarkets! In my day we called them Porn shops or adult stores. there are shitloads of these things down here, so if you and the missus want the "Throbbing Gristle of Love" ( trademark to me ), call in to Fysho and ask for the under the counter throbber :) :) :)

It is a nondescript shitty part of a shitty town in a shitty territory. Filled withg public servants that want to wife swap with someone who has a better looking wife than theirs. This is a tough ask to say the least.
There are innumerable eating joints down here that suck the tax payers dollar dry regarding the public servants using the old "sustenance" on the tax receipt.
As far as MILF's go. Just walk away because there is nothing to see here.
They also have a footy comp down there that nobody cares about because the vikings own it and run it and win it. Any decent player down there should go somewhere else to further their career. auburn maybe?

King Scrub, QLD. Tree changers are pushing up property prices in this lifestyle block community just North of BrisVegas. Someone I know rather well, got very tired and emotional (and lucky) at their mates wedding in the last century, at nearby Glengariff Estate.

BRANDUM - TAS
This place brings all sorts of connotations about Tasmaniacs. To the tunes of dueling banjoes I bring you Brandum. A place AND a hobby.
Dont go walking out late at night in Brandum. You may find yourself the sexual conquest of one of the lake people. Aaaarrrgfgggghhhh

And that is how they Brand'um

It is in the bottom part of the lakes district and for food there are B & B's and little place all over the joint. As far as Rugby goes...w
Well you are in Tassie, so bugger all except a couple of schools and I think a few in Hobart. As far as the rest of the things MILF and Pie go, Head to Hobart which is about an hour and a half away.
A beautiful part of the world unlike auburn

Moorabbin - Vic. Home of the Moorabbin Rams. The fields are an old rubbish tip that the local council started to level, then seemingly got bored. Up to a few years ago you could occasionally find a blade of grass on the field. By some twist of geography the wind always seems to be blowing off the south pole and then right down the field.
That aside its always a good venue for a sat arvo watching the local comp. Pies and beer available.

Newnham, Tas. In the days when he was plain old Dr Brown, ExSenator Bob Brown used to live in this part of Launceston down by the river.
(hasty fill in because @Baldrick trumped me:( with Moorabbin)

Mount Horeb, NSW. This place is on The Road to Gundagai. Well it's the back road to Gundagai from Tumut, via Adelong, so it could be the spot that Banjo Patterson wrote about. Nothing to see here except scenery and serenity. Keep on moving to Gundagai for food and drink. Plenty of rugby around these environs. Just ask @Yourmatesam.

Hey HJ , if you go back through Adelong and drive up along the creek you will end up at Batlow. Hell of a weird place that one. Went up to see a shearer there one Saturday at the pub. While we were there we saw a father fight his son and some lunatic go past on a set of water skis towed behind a HG Holden sedan and it wasn't even raining ,then someone else got out a chain saw and tried to cut down a tree across the road. To top that off we saw some fella get belted by his wife. Saw no MILFs and ate no pies but the beer was cold. Closest Rugby is for the Bulls down the hill at Tumut. Would advise all persons to avoid the place like the plague as you can hear Banjoes twanging away quite clearly and the towns other favorite song is " Copper head road". Would be on a par with Auburn.

I take it that the previous entry was Batlow. So next up we have:

Wee Waa, NSW. Don't know where Big Waa is but Wee Waa is Jamie Lyon's home town. He left the NRL to play with the Wee Waa Panthers for a season. French Electro Band, Daft Punk, chose the Wee Waa show for the global launch party for their last album. Cotton Country.

AMITY/AMITY POINT - QLD

Known by both names so as not to cause confusion...


Its STRADDIE MAAAAAATTTTEEEE!!!!!!
Your classic bogan queenslanders overseas trip! Stradbroke Island. Just off the coast from the gold coast
A classless rabble venture here every year for holidays and drink xxxx and bundaberg rum in copious amounts. The guys pretty much do the same.
Mosquitos. Mosquitos. Drunk queenslanders. What more could you ask for?
All the other pre requisites are found on the mainland (Food MILF Footy)
Sharks eat people around this neck of the woods.
Even sharks dont go to auburn

I'll take the Y from Amity as the starter.

Yarram, VIC. Previously Yarram Yarram. The local bakery has allegedly won the Great Australian Meat Pie Competition but this is not recorded in the roll of honour at the greataussiepiecomp.com. Well worth a visit, but not if you are looking for any Rugby. Home to Andrew Dunkley from the Swans. Mine Host at the Yarram Club Hotel used to be particularly knowledgeable about Single Malt Scotch Whiskey.

Mooroopna - Vic Won the pie comp in 2008 (thanks for that). Its all AFL up there. Closest rugby would be with the Shepparton Bulls. They came fifth in the Vic Second Div this year.

Adelaide River, NT. Nowhere near Adelaide, but there is a river here. The buffalo that Mick Dundee "charmed" in Crocodile Dundee used to live here until his death. He has since been stuffed and now resides in the bar at the Adelaide River Inn. Rugby - Nuh, It's 100 km to the Hottest Rugby 7's in Darwin.

YUENDUMU - NT

Fresh water people country, it is 6 hours drive from the Alice and centuries away from Darwin. Just how the locals like it. A settlement in the Tanami, it has a waterhole, an airstrip, a general store and bugger all else.
Real Australian Desert country, starkly beautiful on a level that most coastal people would never comprehend.
In the stillness of a winters morning as the temperature comes back into the positive degrees eventually, you can actually hear a mouse fart from 500 metres.

Footy, MILF's and Pies need not apply here.
auburn has never had this beauty in the history of the world, and it never will
