We are planning on seeing as many different Australian sporting events as we can. The first was a Sydney Roosters rugby league game last weekend. Rugby league is pretty much the same as rugby union (the type of rugby played in Canada). It is a little faster, as the tackles and ball movement happen quicker than in rugby union. It was very entertaining and very rough. There were some seriously violent tackles. Australians loves sports of all kinds. They seem more willing to support home grown Australian sports like rugby league, Aussie rules football, cricket....and more, regardless if anyone else in the world cares about these sports. Summer, and cricket season, are just around the corner.
