Root for the Wallabies

[#1 Tah]

I'm more pissed off that a betting agency can advertise to children and tourists flying into Melbourne than about the message itself. Had the ARU done it, fair game, although a message like that would fire up the Lions. Didn't we just have gambling advertising reforms on the small screen and suddenly 170x90m billboards are going up? Sounds like a little bit of a double standard to me.

Thankfully it's not a painting of Tom Waterhouse rooting a Lion.

You know it funny on a website for rugby etc, but seriously does anyone really think it good in a field leading into Melbourne?? I like daz, would never consider myself a prude, but I like to think I got a smidgen of taste. Man the tourists flying in from around the world who have no idea what it is about , and don't know or follow rugby, must think Aussie is a really classy place. If you want to use argument that it gets rugby on front page, just get your players to all get pissed, and hassle some women etc, that would have same affect!!

its a joke have a laugh, if people don't get it that's fine they will be in the very small minority and if you don't like it itll be gone soon so no need to worry about it

That "Abstain for the Game" campaign worked out alright, didn't it? The good work must have been done before it was pulled.

Yes I am being crude but was the pun in that post deliberate? Good work if so.

To really hit the big time, how about you get some Rugby Playing Officer cadets to do that.

Oh wait that box has just been ticked by the Australian Defence Force Academy.
