I'd also like to add the isolationist and regionalism bullshit. Why is the country so fundamentally split in half when it comes to sports? Why is it that the unique and native sport of Australia is a considered a 'poofter's game' in half of the country, we can't even be proud of something that is culturally unique because it's from a different state. Why does someone have to be league or aussie rules? Why are they in direct competition with each other, people don't seem to understand they can like both, it's like religions that are mutually exclusive. And the one sport that is unifying is chopped up and hidden on different channels, why does Cricket Australia sell off TV rights in nonsensical ways? Put that shit on free-to-air, have every game being pumped into every house on Channel 7 or Channel 9, don't do what Rugby Union Australia did and hide their sport for the eyes of private school boys only. For an openly egalitarian culture we sure do hide a lot of classism and regionalism in plain sight.
