Re: The Aussie Rules thread
No live showing here. Maybe on the digital channels, but I don't have a set-top box, so no joy there.
It'll be on the radio, I suppose. I'll go check the ABC (pretty much the only radio I listen to... I cannot understand why people who listen to commercial stations that always play the same goddamn music and have ad breaks every five seconds complain to me that the ABC is boring. I like to fucking think! you retards!)
Sorry, tangent.
