Fremantle 75 Geelong 94 (AFL)
Fremantle 75 Geelong 94 (21/06/2009) Also South Fremantle 74 Subiaco 102 (WAFL, 20/06/2009) Perth, on Australia’s West Coast, has a well-deserved reputation as being a sunshine capital, with even the winters being warm. That is certainly true, but what they … Continue reading
Adelaide 68 North Melbourne 24 (AFL)
Adelaide Crows 68 North Melbourne 24 (14/06/2009) I arrived in Adelaide with a carefully planned itinerary allowing a third game in a weekend that very afternoon. Planning ahead, I’d also purchased a ticket in advance to save time. What I … Continue reading

Gold Coast 28 St George 24 (NRL)
Gold Coast Titans 28 St. George Illawarra 24 (08/06/2009) It’s fair to say I never took to rugby when I was growing up. Much of it is down to association. The only time I ever saw a rugby ball was … Continue reading

Richmond 92 West Coast 77 (AFL)
Richmond 92 West Coast Eagles 77 (13/06/09) Upon returning to England after seeing four AFL games, I expected that to be that. Coverage of the game in the press here would struggle to be described as minimal. Even the BBC’s … Continue reading

Sydney 118 Port Adelaide 87 (AFL)
Sydney 118 Port Adelaide 87 (20/05/07) A week after my three game introduction to the AFL in Melbourne & Geelong, I was in Sydney. Having just got used to the sports sections of the newspapers being wall to wall with … Continue reading

Geelong 109 West Coast 70 (AFL)
Early winter in Geelong, with blue skies and temperatures in the low twenties (Centigrade) is not like going to Preston in November. I doubt many travelling fans watching England’s winter sport spend part of the morning eating breakfast at an … Continue reading

(AFL) Collingwood 119 Carlton 95
Collingwood 119 Carlton 95 (12/05/2007) This wasn’t my first game of Aussie rules football. That had come the previous night at Melbourne’s 2nd stadium, the Etihad. But this game, at the famous MCG, was the one that really got me … Continue reading
